We all have those days—the ones where meditation feels like the last thing we want to do. Maybe you're feeling restless, overwhelmed, or just not in the mood. This short, under-10-minute meditation is designed for exactly those moments. Through gentle breathwork, mindful check-ins, and intention setting, you'll be guided into a space of ease, without pressure or expectation. Instead of forcing yourself to meditate, this practice meets you where you are, honoring your emotions while bringing balance and alignment to your day. Give yourself permission to show up just as you are—no effort required, just a little space to breathe. Music: Omfamnad Strom

Hey there,

My name is Lisa,

And this is a simple,

Intention-setting meditation for your morning or when you may not feel like meditating.

This is also meditation that I could say is great for beginners if you're just diving on into your meditation journey and trying to find an easeful lull with your meditation.

So,

With that,

Come into a comfortable position,

Whatever that is for you,

Whether that be seated,

Lying on down,

Taking a nice big,

Deep inhale into your body,

And exhale,

Sigh out,

Let go,

Breathing naturally,

And we're going to try and inhale,

Hold,

Exhale,

Hold,

Pranayama breathing.

So take a nice big,

Deep inhale into the body for 1,

2,

3,

4,

Hold,

2,

3,

4,

Exhale,

2,

3,

4,

5,

6,

Take a nice big,

Deep inhale,

Exhale,

Sigh out.

Breathing in,

I breathe in peace,

Exhale,

Releasing all that doesn't serve you.

Inhale,

Breathing in peace,

Exhale,

Breathing out the outside world.

I want you to go ahead and tune into your feelings at this present moment,

Asking yourself,

What do I need at this present moment,

What do I need,

Or maybe my day,

My night,

But what is calling,

What is calling to me at this present moment?

And going based off your needs,

Whatever it is,

I invite you to take a big,

Deep inhale into the body,

Into any space of tension,

Holding,

Exhale,

Sigh out,

Letting the rest of the world go.

And let's just take a moment here to simply observe your thoughts.

Allow them to pass by like clouds in the sky,

Or waves washing over the shore.

And from this beautiful space,

I invite you to set an intention for yourself,

Whatever that is for you at this moment,

Maybe based on how you feel,

What your needs are,

And the energy of your thoughts.

And with that intention set,

Take a nice,

Big,

Deep inhale into your body,

Exhale,

Sigh out,

Let everything else go,

And allow yourself to be in alignment with whatever you've cultivated within yourself,

Within your mind and body,

Slowly taking your time connecting with the world around you.

And I thank you so much for meditating with me,

My friend.

I hope that this meditation has served you,

And I look forward to practicing with you next time.

Bye for now.

Exactly what I needed done this morning. After not sleeping great the past few nights. I know how much my morning meditation sessions mean to me and how important they are sometimes it’s difficult to find the right meditation and this popped up so thank you. Liza, this was just what I needed to start my day. Calm and relaxing without a rush to start the day just knowing that I can ease into it with no pressure. Blessings to you.
