Transcript

To your friends. Welcome to this evening Gratitude Reflection for Monday. This is the second in a series of seven. They are intended to remind you day after day of the joys of life. So many things to be grateful for. Begin by bringing ourselves to a place of awareness in this present moment. So leave to one side now any concerns arising from the day. And simply relax. You might find it helpful to begin by concentrating on your breathing. Your bread is a wonderful gift. It can bring you into the present moment anytime you call upon it. So breathe in now and notice the fact that you are breathing in. You're taking in the good air on which all our lives depend. Let's concentrate on the breathing for just one minute. And this will allow your breath to bring you to a place of stillness. Welcome back. I'm grateful for these moments of stillness. That I can find within myself. As I reflect at the end of this day. Are resolved to make more time for stillness. More time tomorrow and the day after. I'm grateful for the moments of inspiration. That come to me when I make time for stillness and quietness. I pray that in these moments of inspiration. I'll resolve to make this world a little better. A little kinder. Because of my presence in it. Let's hope that that will be so. And grateful for the moments of wonder and awe. That present themselves to me today and every day. May I never lose the capacity to experience gratitude at the sight of the ordinary. Of what appears to be the ordinary. May I never take the everyday miracles for granted. I'm grateful for the opportunity of rest at the end of a busy day. I'm thankful for the gift of sleep when it comes. And on those occasions when I find sleep difficult. May I realise the value of simply resting. And allowing things to gently be. May I never find myself worried just because I cannot get to sleep. May I always be grateful for the morning that faithfully follows every night. And May each new day. Find me ready to begin again. Namaste.
