Sit up straight with your legs crossed and your hands resting down on your knees.
Close your eyes and relax your shoulders.
Take a deep breath in and a slow breath out.
Take another deep breath in and a slow breath out.
Some days you may find yourself thinking too much about what happened yesterday or even worrying about what will happen tomorrow instead of just enjoying today.
This happens to all of us sometimes.
Luckily when it does,
We have the power in our minds and in our hearts to bring ourselves right back into today so we can enjoy everything special about this moment right now.
Would you like to give it a try?
To practice being in today,
We are going to listen to a beautiful sound from a special singing bowl.
Sound will continue for several moments.
When you hear the sound,
Listen the whole way through until you can no longer hear it,
Enjoying each and every moment.
To get ready,
Put both of your hands onto your heart and keep them there while you listen to the sound.
Stay still and remember to listen carefully because the sound will get very,
Very quiet as it fades away.
Stay still.
Let's listen to the sound one more time.
Shifted over.
.
Now bring your hands back to your knees.
How did it feel to listen to the whole sound?
Maybe you felt it inside your body or inside your mind,
Inside your heart,
Or inside your feelings.
There is so much to learn and to feel when we really let ourselves be in today.
Take a few moments and enjoy everything good that's happening inside you and around you right now.
Let all of those good things help you to smile and feel excited about this very moment.
Now gently open up your eyes and enjoy the rest of your today.
