This is a meditation.
It's a love note to water.
Go ahead and grab yourself a small cup of water,
Something you can easily drink in one sitting.
Once you have your cup of water,
You're gonna place it in front of you where you can easily see it without straining your neck.
So if you're seated on the floor,
You might need to put your cup of water a little further away from you.
Maybe you are seated at a table.
Just find a seat,
Place your cup of water within easy distance to gaze upon and just for a moment allow your eyes to close and take a deep breath in,
Sigh it out,
And let your natural breath come in and out.
Feel yourself settle into your seat and fully arrive into it feeling any places where your body is touching the earth or any other objects,
Whether those objects are your clothes or a seat.
Bring your awareness to your eyes and let them grow heavy and soft.
Still keeping your eyes closed,
Turn your gaze to where you think your cup of water rests and gently flutter your eyes open and let your eyes rest softly on this cup of water in front of you.
Allow yourself to just see it,
Any reflections,
The container that holds it,
And the color.
Begin to repeat after me,
You are radiant.
You could always repeat this out loud or in your mind but saying to the cup of water in front of you,
You are radiant.
You are pure.
You are pure.
You are cleansing.
You are cleansing.
You are adaptable.
You are adaptable.
You are soft.
You are soft.
You are inviting.

You are resilient.

You are life-giving.

You are cool.

You are clear.

You are refreshing.

You are soothing.

You are nourishing.

You are a part of me.
You are a part of me.
Continue to repeat any of these that stick out to you that feel really good to say out loud or in your mind or any others that you're thinking that I might have missed for you.
Continue speaking these little love notes to your cup of water in front of you.
Just repeating.
You don't have to come up with any new words if you don't want to.
What are the ones that are resting in your mind?
Let your eyes gently close and come back to feeling your body feel your breath.
Remind yourself that you are made up of so much water.
All these love notes that you just spoke to this glass of water sitting in front of you are valid to say to yourself,
You are nourishing.
You are refreshing.
You are powerful.
You are essential.
You are valued.
You are beautiful.
Repeat any of these internally.
Any of the ones that stick out to you may be the ones that you continue to repeat to your cup of water in front of you.
You are natural.
You are divine.
Very gently take a deep breath in.
Let it go.
Slowly flutter your eyes open and bring both hands to your cup of water.
Hold it lovingly and consciously drink your cup of water.
Feel it nourish you.
Feel it soothe you.
Feel it help you refresh to become clear and take as long as you want to lovingly and consciously consume this cup of water and letting it spread out into your body and knowing all those little love notes you poured into this cup are being spread out through your body.
