Hello and welcome.
My name is Tina and I want to thank you for joining me for this morning alignment meditation.
Let us find a comfortable seat.
Sitting,
Lying down,
Whatever feels right for you this morning.
And when you're ready,
You can close down your eyes.
Take a deep breath in through your nose.
And release it slowly out through your mouth.
Let your shoulders drop away from your ears.
Relax your jaw,
Soften your forehead.
You are exactly where you need to be right now.
Let's go back to our breath.
Just notice it.
Feeling the rise and the fall of your chest.
Now inhale deeply through your nose.
Hold for a moment.
And exhale slowly through your mouth.
Again,
In through your nose.
Hold.
And exhale.
With each breath,
Imagine you're breathing in light.
Refreshing light.
And with each exhale,
Imagine you are releasing anything that no longer serves you.
Stress,
Worry,
Tension,
Doubt,
Release it.
Release anything you've been carrying that isn't yours to carry.
Breathe it out and let it go.
Inhaling peace.
And exhaling I release.
One more time,
Inhale.
Hold at the top.
And as you exhale,
I want you to notice yourself.
Becoming lighter,
Clearer,
More spacious.
Now bring your attention to the base of your spine,
To your root.
Imagine roots growing down from the base of your body,
Down through the floor,
Deep into the earth.
Down through the layers of soil and stone down to the center of the earth where there is warmth stability Feel those roots anchoring you.
Holding you steady,
Supporting you completely.
You are safe.
You are supported.
You are not alone.
Let's do a quick scan of our bodies from the top of our heads to our toes.
And I want you to notice any places where you're holding tension.
Maybe a jaw,
Your shoulders,
Your hands.
On your next exhale,
Let that tension melt away.
Allow it to release from your body.
Feel your body become relaxed and at ease.
Your legs are heavy,
Your arms are heavy.
Your whole body is letting go.
You are grounded.
You are present.
You are here.
Now bring your awareness to your heart center.
Feel your breath moving in and out of your heart space.
Gentle.
Study.
From this grounded,
Relaxed place,
Ask yourself,
How do I want to feel today?
Not what you need to do,
But how do you want to feel?
Peaceful,
Confident,
Open,
Courageous,
Loving.
Let the answer arise without forcing it.
Now imagine yourself moving through this day carrying that feeling with you.
Walk with it.
Speak with it.
Breathe with it.
You are aligning with your truest self.
Let's finish this with a few affirmations.
You could repeat these affirmations to yourself either silently or out loud.
I am safe,
I am grounded,
And I am whole.
I release what no longer serves me and I welcome what is meant for me.
I am aligned with my truth,
And I trust my path.
I am enough exactly as I am in this moment.
Today I choose peace,
I choose presence,
And I choose me.
Take one last deep breath in.
And as you exhale,
Gently bring your awareness back into the room.
Wiggle your fingers and toes,
And when you're ready,
Take your time.
You can open your eyes.
Carry this grounded,
Aligned energy with you into your day.
You're ready,
You're worthy,
And you are aligned.
Namaste.
