Here's the script for Mindful Mornings:
Good morning, beautiful souls. I'm so glad you've chosen to start your day with this practice. [PAUSE]
Today, I want to acknowledge something special. It's November 20th, 2024 - a time when many of us are feeling the weight of approaching winter, perhaps sensing a bit of emotional heaviness or anticipatory stress about the holidays and year-end expectations. [PAUSE]
Let's begin by simply arriving. Find a comfortable seat - whether that's in a chair, on a cushion, or even standing if that feels right for you today. Allow your spine to feel supported, yet effortlessly tall, like a tree rooted deeply but reaching gracefully toward the sky. [PAUSE]
Close your eyes, if that feels comfortable. Take a deep breath in through your nose, feeling the cool air entering, and a warm exhale through your mouth. [PAUSE]
Today, we're practicing what I call the "Anchoring Breath" - a technique designed to ground you and create a sense of profound inner calm.
Imagine your breath as a gentle tide. Each inhale is like waves softly rolling toward the shore, bringing with them a sense of possibility and renewal. Each exhale is like those waves gracefully retreating, carrying away any tension or worry. [PAUSE]
Breathe in for a count of four: 1... 2... 3... 4...
Hold briefly: 1... 2...
Exhale for a count of six: 1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6...
[Repeat this breathing pattern 3-4 times]
As thoughts drift through your mind - and they will - simply notice them like passing clouds. No judgment. Just gentle observation. Your breath remains your steady anchor. [PAUSE]
In these moments, you're not trying to change anything. You're simply allowing yourself to be exactly as you are right now - complete, whole, enough. [PAUSE]
As we prepare to close, take one more deep, nourishing breath. Set an intention to carry this sense of groundedness with you. Perhaps it's a simple mental note: "I am calm. I am present." [PAUSE]
When you're ready, slowly open your eyes. Take this feeling of centeredness with you into your day. Remember: peace is always available, just a breath away.
Namaste.
