Before you reach for your phone and before the world rushes in, Just pause here for a moment. Let your eyes stay soft or gently closed and take a slow deep breath in, Then exhale nice and easy. Take another breath in and gently let it go. There's nowhere else you need to be right now. There's nothing to respond to and nothing to check. There is just this moment. Notice your body as you wake into the day. Feel the weight of yourself resting here and the air softly touching your skin. Now gently ask yourself how do I want to feel today? Not what you need to do and not who you need to be for others but how you truly want to feel. Maybe you want to feel calm or steady or open or light. Whatever comes up is perfect. Let that feeling begin right here. Take one more slow breath in and as you exhale imagine that feeling settling into your body as if it is quietly becoming part of you. When you're ready you can open your eyes and pick up your phone if you choose but now you are starting your day from a place that belongs to you.
