Hello,
Welcome and good morning to you.
My name is Mark and this is your space to rise gently to meet this new day with energy,
Gratitude and a sense of possibility.
So,
Wherever you are right now,
If you're lying in bed still,
That's OK,
If you're sitting up having your morning coffee or tea,
Allow yourself just to arrive fully.
You've given yourself the gift of these few minutes to awaken your body and acknowledge mind and spirit.
OK,
Let's begin by sitting comfortably or lying down if you're still relaxed in your bed,
Close your eyes and take a deep breath in and a slow,
Steady breath out.
Feel the coolness of the inhale and the warmth of exhaling.
Let your breath remind you that life is flowing through you.
As you breathe,
Notice your body awakening,
The weight of your feet resting on the ground or the weight of your body on the bed if you're lying down.
Now let's imagine a soft golden light rising with the sun.
This light gently pours down over you,
Beginning at the crown of your head,
Travelling slowly through your body.
It warms your forehead,
It softens your throat.
It fills your heart with a bright glow of energy.
With each inhale,
This golden light expands and with each exhale,
It releases any heaviness or residue from yesterday.
You are recharged,
You are renewed,
It's a new day full of possibility for you.
Just sit for a minute now,
With your breath,
Inhaling and feeling the golden light expand and exhaling,
Releasing the heaviness and rubbish and residue from yesterday.
You are recharged,
You are renewed.
As this light fills you,
Let these affirmations settle into your being.
You can repeat them silently or aloud,
Just letting each one become part of your morning intention.
I am awake,
Alive and ready for this brand new day.
I am awake,
Alive and ready for this brand new day.
I have everything within me to meet today with strength and grace.
I have everything within me to meet today with strength and grace.
I choose to move through today with clarity and purpose.
I choose to move through today with clarity and purpose.
I welcome opportunities and I trust myself to make the most of them.
Today I shine my unique light and the world is better for it.
Today I shine my unique light and the world is better for it.
Allow one of those affirmations to become your anchor,
Hold it close and breathe it into your heart space.
Allow one of those affirmations to become your anchor,
Hold it close and breathe it into your heart space.
Now bring to mind something you want to bring into this brand new day,
Perhaps it's a quality like focus,
Kindness or courage,
Or maybe it's a vision of how you'd like to feel by the end of today tonight.
See yourself moving through your day with ease and picture one moment,
Maybe a conversation,
A task or maybe a quiet pause and see yourself handling it with calm,
Confidence and grace.
Notice how your body feels in this image,
Notice the lightness in your chest,
The steadiness in your breath.
You are aligned with this energy.
Now take a deep breath in,
Filling up your body with fresh energy and exhale letting go of any heaviness and doubt.
As you prepare to step into the day,
Carry with you the golden light,
The strength of your affirmations and the clarity of your vision.
Now when you're ready,
Wiggle your fingers and toes,
Roll your shoulders gently and open up your eyes to this brand new day.
This day is a new beginning and you my friend are ready for it.
Go forward with energy,
Gratitude and the knowledge that you are enough.
Thank you so much for choosing to join me today in your morning meditation.
I hope you have a beautiful rest of your day.
Go in peace.
Namaste
