Good morning.

Whether you woke up feeling anxious or want to help create a stress-free day,

I hope this meditation will help you feel more relaxed and centered.

Go ahead and find a comfortable position,

Pressing your hands with the palms down and letting your eyes gently close.

Start to bring an awareness to the breath.

Notice how it gently moves your chest in and out.

Feel the wave-like motion that occurs naturally as you breathe.

Let this rhythm that happens naturally soothe you and ground you.

As you breathe in,

Feel the heart fill with love and peace.

And as you exhale,

That loving calmness flows out to every inch of your body.

Keep breathing peace into your heart and exhaling it out in every direction until it reaches the top of your head,

The fingertips,

And the toes.

Continue imagining this relaxing breath cycle on your own,

Using the natural movement of your breath.

After each movement,

Rotate the entire body.

You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You Not Not You you You you you and Now ask yourself,

What is one thing I can do if I start to feel anxious today?

Maybe it's focusing on your breath for just two minutes,

Taking a movement break,

Or journaling how you're feeling.

What's one easy thing you can do today if you start to feel anxious?

Keep that in mind today and know that you have tools to support yourself.

Take a moment to just feel that inner support system,

Maybe bringing one or both hands to the heart if that feels good.

And tell yourself,

I'm here to support you.

I can take care of you and anything else you'd like to tell yourself.

Beautiful.

I'm taking as much time as you'd like.

Take,

Slowly and gently open your eyes.

What a great start to my morning. You have such a sweet and caring tone in your voice. I had to giggle when you said “if your mind has start to wander“ ha ha ha because it had and I was thinking oh man I got caught ha ha ha. I also found the setting a plan of what to do throughout the day when you get anxious to be very helpful. Thank you so much for continuing to share your gift and guidance. I really enjoy meditating with you. It is a light in my day for sure.
