Good morning and welcome to this meditation. Before we get started, Find a comfortable position either sitting up or lying down. Maybe you're still lying in bed. Just make sure that you are as comfortable as possible. And to get started, Let's take a few deep breaths together. Breathing in through our nose and out through our mouth. Another deep breath into our belly. Exhaling with a sigh. One more time. Breathing in through our nose and exhaling through our mouth. And now I want to invite you to set an intention for this day. What do you want to focus on today? And if you have found your intention, Say it out loud or say it in your head and breathe it in. And in a moment we will start to breathe in a rhythm to energize our intention and we do so by breathing in through our nose and out through our mouth. We breathe in on the count of four and also out on the count of four. We will do that to the rhythm of the music. Afterwards we will be holding our breaths for about one and a half to two minutes. Every time you feel the urge to breathe, Just take a quick sip of air in and then out again. Something like this. It's important that you breathe all the air out again to return to that state of relaxation. Afterwards we'll be holding our breaths with the air in our lungs. But you don't have to remember all of this. I will guide you through this. So for now you can just relax, Focus on your breathing and focus on your intention. Here we go. Breathing in two, Three, Four. Out two, Three, Four. In and out. In and out. In and out. Breathing deep into our belly and out. Exhaling with a sigh. In and out. In and out. In and out. In and out.

And if you now hear this little voice in your head like, Ah, I'm not able to imagine this, Then just imagine what if. What if I actually felt amazing? What if I was actually excited about the day? What if I felt I'm gonna rock this day? And breathe that in. With every inhale, Breathe that in. Breathe that into every cell of your body until you can feel it in every cell of your body. And just enjoy the feeling. And use your imagination to paint your perfect day. How do you want your day to look like? What do you want to do today? How do you want to feel today?
