00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:05.799
<v Speaker 1>Welcome. Find a comfortable position, sitting or lying down, Close

2
00:00:05.839 --> 00:00:09.519
<v Speaker 1>your eyes gently and take a deep breath in, then

3
00:00:09.640 --> 00:00:13.919
<v Speaker 1>slowly breathe out. Begin by bringing your attention to your breath.

4
00:00:14.439 --> 00:00:18.440
<v Speaker 1>Notice the natural flow of air entering and leaving your body.

5
00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:22.399
<v Speaker 1>With each inhale, feel your body relax a little more,

6
00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:28.320
<v Speaker 1>and with each exhale release any tension. Now gently shift

7
00:00:28.359 --> 00:00:31.800
<v Speaker 1>your focus to your heart space, the center of your chest.

8
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:37.079
<v Speaker 1>Imagine a warm, glowing light there, soft and inviting. As

9
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:40.679
<v Speaker 1>you breathe in, feel this light grow brighter and warmer

10
00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:44.920
<v Speaker 1>with each breath out. Allow this light to expand through

11
00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:48.439
<v Speaker 1>your chest, filling you with a sense of calm and peace.

12
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:52.320
<v Speaker 1>Now bring to mind something you are grateful for today.

13
00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:56.200
<v Speaker 1>It can be something simple like the warmth of the sun,

14
00:00:56.679 --> 00:00:59.479
<v Speaker 1>a kind word from a friend, or the comfort of

15
00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:03.759
<v Speaker 1>your breath. Allow yourself to fully feel the gratitude for this.

16
00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:07.959
<v Speaker 1>Notice how it feels in your body. Maybe it brings

17
00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:11.920
<v Speaker 1>a smile, a soft warmth, or a lightness in your chest.

18
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Take a deep breath in, and, as you breathe out silently,

19
00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:21.079
<v Speaker 1>say to yourself thank you. Now think of another thing

20
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:25.519
<v Speaker 1>you appreciate, perhaps a person, an experience, or even a

21
00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:30.079
<v Speaker 1>personal strength. Let that feeling of gratitude grow stronger as

22
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:33.359
<v Speaker 1>you hold this in your mind. Feel your heart open

23
00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:37.879
<v Speaker 1>wider with each breath. Let gratitude fill your entire being

24
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:41.640
<v Speaker 1>like a gentle wave washing over you. If any distracting

25
00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:45.680
<v Speaker 1>thoughts arise, gently acknowledge them and bring your focus back

26
00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:49.359
<v Speaker 1>to the feeling of gratitude. Spend a few moments here

27
00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:56.040
<v Speaker 1>breathing in appreciation, breathing out gratitude. Now consider how you

28
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:59.359
<v Speaker 1>can carry this feeling with you throughout your day. Know

29
00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:03.599
<v Speaker 1>that grataeude is always accessible within you, like a quiet

30
00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:08.120
<v Speaker 1>inner light. Take one more deep breath in and slowly

31
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:12.159
<v Speaker 1>breathe out. Begin to bring your awareness back to the room.

32
00:02:12.479 --> 00:02:16.919
<v Speaker 1>Wiggle your fingers and toes when you are ready. Gently

33
00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:20.879
<v Speaker 1>open your eyes. Carry this sense of gratitude and peace

34
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:23.879
<v Speaker 1>with you as you go about your day. Thank you

35
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:26.199
<v Speaker 1>for sharing this moment of gratitude with me.
