Good morning,
Good morning,
Good morning.
The way we start the day sets the tone for the rest of the day.
And if you're feeling really calm,
Clear and focused already,
Then that's wonderful.
But if,
Like me,
Your head has already started rushing around to a million different things,
Then it can really help to take just 10 minutes to press the reset button,
To calm the body and the mind,
And to begin the day again,
With clarity and with focus and positive intention.
Because when we do that,
We feel stronger,
More ready and able to take on the day,
To face anything and to do it all with a peaceful smile.
So let's begin by becoming more present,
Centering ourselves in this moment.
The mind may be busy,
But we can begin to focus our attention on the breath.
Take deep,
Slow breaths,
In through your nose if you can,
And out through your mouth,
In your own time.
Breathing deep and slow,
Filling your lungs gently,
And breathing out with a nice long,
Slow exhale.
Take another nice,
Deep breath in,
And then breathe it out slowly,
And feel it as you breathe all the way out.
And then let your breath just return to normal.
And begin to become aware of your body resting here.
Be aware of your body,
Of your arms and your legs.
You can wiggle your fingers and toes if you like,
Just to tune in with yourself resting here.
And then repeat these words in your head or out loud,
I am present.
I am here.
I am focused.
And I am clear.
I notice my thoughts.
And I choose to stay calm.
I'm grateful for this day.
And I will seize every opportunity that comes my way.
Let's do that once more.
I am present.
I am here.
I am focused.
I am clear.
I notice my thoughts.
And I choose to stay calm.
I'm grateful for this day.
And I will seize every opportunity that comes my way.
Now take a few deep,
Positive,
Intentional breaths.
Breathe in deep through your nose.
Fill your lungs.
Let it all go with a long,
Slow exhale.
And then as you breathe in deeply again,
Breathe in clarity.
And breathe out calm.
Breathe in clarity.
Breathe out calm.
And breathe in confidence.
And breathe out peace.
Breathe in confidence.
And breathe out peace.
Take another deep breath.
Deep breath in.
Fill your lungs and hold the breath for a moment.
And then let it all go and relax your body.
Now raise your eyes up gently,
Up to your forehead and soften your breath.
Raise your eyes gently up to your forehead without any strain.
Soften your breath.
And breathe gently into your forehead.
A breath of calm.
A breath of clarity.
A breath of peace.
A breath of soft,
Intentional energy into your forehead.
Breathe slowly.
Relax.
Some people like to see a soft light glowing there in the forehead.
A kind and supportive light.
A light that glows a little brighter each time you breathe in.
A light that radiates peace as you breathe out.
A light that's with you throughout your day.
Each time you stop,
Take a moment and bring your attention gently to your forehead.
And now let's set a positive intention for the day.
Today is going to be a calm day.
A focused day.
A clear day.
Today is going to be a positive day.
I will be present.
I will be strong.
I will be kind.
I cease today.
And I make it mine.
And accept all that comes my way.
Once more.
Today is going to be a calm day.
A focused day.
A clear day.
A focused day.
Today is going to be a positive day.
I will be present.
I will be strong.
I will be kind.
I cease today.
And I make it mine.
And accept all that comes my way.
And accept all that comes my way.
Now let's sit for a moment,
Breathing gently,
Body relaxed and at peace.
Now take this feeling with you into your day.
This feeling is yours to enjoy,
Yours to share and it can be yours every day.
Simply join me each day for the next 10 days and let this feeling grow inside you.
Let me know in the comments if you're going to give that a try.
And I'm sending you peace,
I'm sending you love and I'm sending you happiness for the rest of your day.
