Good morning.
My name is Nini Lee and I will be guiding you this morning to awaken into your day.
Let's begin by placing one hand on the heart and the other hand on the belly and affirm to yourself,
I am strong,
Capable and ready to embrace the day.
Now gently exhaling all of your air out through your mouth and breathe in through your nose for 4,

Hold for 4,

Well done.
I invite you to continue to focus on the rhythm of your breath,
Coming back into your natural breathing rhythm,
Allowing each breath to relax you,
To soften you and to awaken you.
Imagine each breath activating and waking up every cell of your body,
Filling yourself up with energy and light.
Now let's energize this energy a bit further,
Shall we?
As we do this,
I invite you to keep your breath at a steady and fast rhythm,
So follow my lead,
Inhale deeply through your nose,
Expanding your belly,
Exhale forcefully out through your nose while pulling your belly in,
And again,
Inhaling deeply through your nose,
Expanding your belly and exhale forcefully through your nose while pulling your belly in.
And again,
Inhaling deeply through your nose,
Expanding your belly,
And exhale forcefully through your nose while pulling your belly in.
I invite you to continue this for another 30 seconds,
You're doing amazing,
Steady and fast.
Well done,
Now I invite you to take a deep inhale through your nose,
And hold for 8,
7,
6,
5,
4,
3,
2,
1,
Exhale completely.
Let it go.
Just a nice big stretch with your arms over your head,
Really listening to what your body needs right now,
Staying connected to your breath,
To your amazing body.
Sit upright with your spine straight and both of your hands on your heart,
And simply reflect on one thing you're grateful for in this moment.
Allow this gratitude to expand your heart,
And now I invite you to set a simple intention for your day.
For example,
Today is a gift and I choose to live in love and kindness.
Now that you're grounded in gratitude and you've set your intention for the day,
I encourage you to go outside to breathe in some fresh air.
It gets some light on your body.
Every day is a gift,
Every day is a miracle,
So welcome it with an open heart.
No matter how challenging life may get at times,
Know that your breath is your anchor,
And that life is a gift.
Take a deep breath in and feel the life force energy moving through your body,
And exhale for 4,
3,
2,
1.
Bring a gentle smile to your face,
Big smile there,
Eyes wide open,
Gazing out.
Now if you want to compound this good energy feeling,
Move your body this morning if you can.
Drink lots of water,
Fill yourself up with nourishing food,
Good thoughts.
Well done on completing this morning meditation practice with me.
From my heart to yours,
Namaste.
