Namaste,
Welcome to this gratitude meditation.
My name is Teresa and I will guide you through this session.
Take a nice deep inhale and exhale.
Gently close your eyes.
I will be bringing you awareness to things in your life that you are thankful for.
Just give gratitude a chance to come up naturally and when it comes up,
Just let yourself sink into the feelings surrounded to it.
Notice how it feels in your body,
How your energy feels.
And if it doesn't come up,
That's okay.
You don't need to try to make yourself feel it.
Just surround your heart,
Not your head.
So let's flash through all aspects of your life that you might be grateful for.
Firstly,
Bring your awareness to your breath.
As you inhale and as you exhale and the fact that each of these breaths give you life.
Then be aware of your heart beating,
Pausing,
Filled with love and compassion and peace and flowing back to you.
And as you exhale and exhale,
Feel the energy of your body and the energy of your body.
And let it flow,
Let it flow,
Let it flow,
Let it flow,
Let it flow,
Let it flow.
Bring your awareness to your eyes that let you see colors,
Faces,
Smiles,
Nature,
The sunrise,
The sunset,
The rainbow of the moon and the stars and yourself in the mirror.
Bring your awareness to your ears that beam in sound,
Music,
Laugh,
The voices of those you love,
The silence,
The beautiful sound of life.
Bring your awareness to your nose that smells the ocean breeze,
The aroma of sweet perfume,
The flowers,
The trees,
Newly cut grass,
The wafting smells that come from the kitchen,
Cupcakes in the oven.
Bring your awareness to your lips and mouth that taste and savor and nourish,
Kisses and speak that whispers and sinks.
Bring your awareness to your hands that hold and touch and carries and open and close and applaud and squeeze arms and shoulders that carry and hug and lift and stretch.
Our feet,
Our toes,
The gift of BLM transport you,
Walk,
Run,
Dance,
Tingle,
Kick,
Fold,
Leap and point.
What about your tears,
Your sorrows and the strength that you seem to be able to master,
To make it through each day.
Bring your awareness to your abundance,
Your expansion,
Your evolution,
Your perspective shifts,
The effluents and the flow and empathy and love and light and your ability to seek growth and potential in every moment.
Now just breathe and feel more grace and ease.
And now experience the warm love and compassion that gratitude brings into your heart.
Drift your awareness to nurturing the relationship in your life,
The new one and the older one.
Material things that came to you unexpectedly,
Things that flow to you with great effort and commitment and hard work.
Think of love in your life and your connection to those things that are sweet and loving and honorable and just feel right.
When we are no longer take life for granted,
We became grateful for everything that we have.
Just breathe and feel this flow.
And when you are ready,
Open your eyes.
Thank you.
Om Hari Om.
