ο»ΏBreathe,
and let the breath
find all the tension
in your body.
Let your float through
the tension,
relaxing you.
PAUSE
Keep breathing deeply
and relaxing,
becoming aware
of the stress and tension
easing in your body.
PAUSE
Take a deep breath,
and let your mind acknowledge
that there are times
when you feel anger.
It’s okay.
PAUSE
So, take a moment,
and visualize the color red.
As you see the color,
breathe.
Breathe and become aware
of the color red in you.
Is it in your core?
Your abdomen?
Your head?
Or, somewhere else?
PAUSE
Now, give yourself a moment,
and acknowledge how
those parts of your body feel.
Do they hurt?
Are they tense?
Do they feel numb?
Allow yourself permission
to observe without judgment.
PAUSE
Now, take a deep breath,
and let yourself take in
the idea of red as anger.
Yes, anger can mean mad,
and that can affect
your body, mind, and soul.
Anger can also mean threatened,
and that can affect
your body, mind, and soul.
Anger can mean inflamed,
and can affect your,
your body, mind, and soul.
PAUSE
Now, pause for a minute,
And imagine a glass pitcher
Filled with crystalline water.
Pure, clear, healing water.
Now, imagine that water
pouring over and
bathing the redness.
Cooling it.
Soothing it.
Letting it go.
PAUSE
Now, breathe.
Breathe,
And feel the relaxation and peace
That the cool water brings.
And, as you do,
Remember,
anger is an important emotion.
It’s a signal
that you may want to acknowledge
in a healthy way.
It’s also an emotion
you have the power
to control.
Just remember your cool, calming water.
Now, and always.
NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL

Breathe…
And let it all go.
All those worries about the hard.
All those fears of what’s in front of you.
PAUSE…
You can do hard things.
It’s one of the things that make you great.
PAUSE…
Your ability to face the hard,
And walk through it,
Transforms you,
And strengthens you,
From the inside out.
There’s a burning inside of you.
A candle of wisdom,
That knows your greatness.
Knows you have no limits.
PAUSE…
It burns infinitely,
Through rainstorms,
And droughts.
Through confidence,
And doubts.
PAUSE…
Feel it burning now,
Brighter and brighter,
As you surrender to the truth:
You can do hard things.
LONG PAUSE…

ο»ΏGive yourself permission
To just let go for a few minutes–
To relax and regroup–
To just unwind.
PAUSE
Breathe, and let any distracting thoughts,
Evaporate into the air,
Leaving you open and tranquil,
And free from cares.
PAUSE
Anxiety is that emotion
That can throw you off your game.
It’s like a rodeo horse,
That you hold onto,
But that finally kicks you off.
PAUSE
It can knit knot after knot
In your core,
Flush you with heat,
Send your heart racing,
And even make you
Feel sick to your stomach.
PAUSE
So, breathe.
Breathe deep into your core.
Lift your arms,
And expand your chest,
So more calming, relaxing air,
Fills your being.
PAUSE
Now, imagine, if you can,
Visualizing that anxiety.
What color is it?
Does it have a human image,
Or something else.
Whatever form it takes,
Visualize it in front of you.
PAUSE
Take a deep breath,
And look straight at your anxiety.
And, as you do,
Hear the words,
“I accept you”
Whispered in your ear.
Let the words repeat.
Then breathe again.
PAUSE
Now, look again at your anxiety.
Has it changed any?
And, as you look at your anxiety,
Hear the words,
“I love myself with or without you,”
Whispered in your ear.
Let the words repeat.
Then breathe again.
PAUSE
Now, look again at your anxiety.
Has it changed any?
And, as you look at your anxiety,
Hear the words,
“I trust the Universe to work things out,”
Whispered in your ear.
Let the words repeat.
Then breathe again.
PAUSE
Now, breathe in and out,
Until your core is light,
And filled with relaxing air.
And, as you start your day,
Remember this to deal
with your anxiety:
I breathe.
I accept.
I love.
I trust.
They will be with you,
any time you need them.

ο»ΏLet your body ease into
a deep, comfortable relaxation.
Allow yourself to just sit with it.
PAUSE
Now, take a deep breath.
and, as you breathe,
feel the relaxation,
unfold throughout you.
Just enjoy the feeling.
PAUSE
As you go through life,
there are times
when you just feel down.
It happens to everyone.
PAUSE
So, take a moment,
and visualize
one of those times
like you were a
distant observer.
Simply observe.
Avoid judging yourself.
PAUSE
As you observe this time,
in your life,
thoughts may arise.
Stay centered,
and again, just acknowledge them
and avoid judgment.
PAUSE
Now, take a deep breath,
and let yourself be
bathed in gratitude.
Gratitude for your strength.
Gratitude for your healing.
Gratitude for where
you are now,
or for the path you're following.
Hold onto the gratitude.
PAUSE
Breathe.
And allow yourself to feel your body.
Then, imagine letting yourself
be healed by gratitude.
How does it feel when
bathed in
and healed with gratitude?
Capture a snapshot
of that feeling
in your body,
and hold onto it.
PAUSE
Now, return to your awareness
to the present.
And, as you do,
open some mental and emotional space
for self-compassion.
Let yourself express some
love and compassion to you!
And, as you feel that love and compassion,
give thanks for them,
for they are yours
anytime you need them,
anytime you feel down.
Now and always.

To all of you mothers,
Whose babies are new,
Who sleeplessly hold your sweet ones.
May you find rest,
And know in your soul,
You can handle whatever comes.
PAUSE
To all of you moms,
Who have little kids,
Whose values you’re trying to mold.
I know it is heavy,
But Divine is right here,
Helping you to carry the load.
PAUSE
To all of you mothers,
Deep in the teens,
Doing your best to survive.
Keep showing up,
As the mother they need,
And watch as they thrive.
PAUSE
To all of you mamas,
Whose kids are grown up,
Carving out paths all alone.
It can be tough,
As you learn to let go,
And let them live lives of their own.
PAUSE
To all of you souls,
Who have said goodbye,
To your mother whose time had come.
That hole will remain,
Inside of you,
Grief braids itself in who you become.
PAUSE
Breathe and relax,
I deeply honor you.
Breathe and sink in,
To your motherly truth.
LONG PAUSE
Feel your motherly essence,
Swirl with the past,
With the women who’ve mothered your soul.
Let it surround you,
As you mother your own,
Beautiful mama, you are whole.
LONG PAUSE
There is sweet comfort,
Knowing there is,
An invisible, unspoken bond.
Between all us moms,
Who won’t judge or pry,
We’ll do anything to bring calm.
PAUSE
So imagine your kids,
And your mother too,
And all of the mamas around.
We’re connected with love,
That moves mountains,
The magic is truly profound.
PAUSE
Dear mama, I wish,
For you to feel me,
When I say I truly love you.
I honor your soul,
And on this Mother’s Day,
May you feel loved and full.
Namaste, Beautiful

ο»ΏTake a deep breath,
and in the back of your mind,
hear a gentle drum beating softly.
PAUSE
As you listen to the drum,
let it lull you into relaxation.
let it calm you.
let it find your internal rhythm,
and align with it.
PAUSE
And, now imagine as the drum beats,
a pearl white buffalo appears in the distance.
It’s misty, ethereal, and magical in its beauty.
PAUSE
Take a deep breath,
and as you exhale,
see if you can visualize the buffalo
transforming into a woman.
A woman with dark hair and eyes,
and draped in white buffalo robes.
PAUSE
When she approaches you,
she reaches out and touches your forehead.
As her fingers alight on you,
visions of ancestors
sweep through your mind.
in a single second,
visions of the most important women
in your life now and before,
are there with you.
PAUSE
Draw in a deep breath of gratitude
as the White Buffalo Calf Woman
connects your past to your present.
PAUSE
The White Buffalo Calf Woman
begins to fade into the distance.
But before she goes,
she gifts you with an ethereal pipe,
a sacred pipe of peace and unity.
PAUSE
And, as she disappears into the mist,
you hold the ethereal pipe and pray,
knowing that forever more,
you are connected to all things,
and all things are connected to you.

ο»ΏTake a moment to connect to yourself,
to feel the seen and unseen parts of you.
to know your consciousness
and simultaneous awareness
of past, present, and future.
PAUSE
Breathe in deeply,
And let your breath
bring life to all
parts of you being.
PAUSE
Breathe in again,
and as you do,
imagine being in the presence
of Mother Mary.
PAUSE
As you draw close,
her aura envelopes you
with pure, unconditional love,
the love of a Universal Mother.
PAUSE
Take a moment
and bask in the love.
Feel her unbounded compassion
for you. For all.
Feel her nurturing your soul.
Feel her healing embrace of you.
Let it infuse you.
PAUSE
As she enfolds you in her essence,
your own Inner Mother is awakened.
That part of you loves you.
That part of you that takes care of you.
That part of you that sometimes,
you ignore.
With Mother Mary’s touch,
it is alive and flowing through you.
PAUSE
So, take a moment and breathe deeply,
and as you do,
let a prayer come to you,
a prayer of gratitude for your Inner mother.
Thank Mother Mary.
Thank your Inner Mother.
PAUSE
And, as your awareness returns to the now,
Remember that the essence of Mother Mary
Is all around and in you.
You are blessed with your own Inner Mother,
Forever and ever.

ο»ΏBreathe.
And, with each inhalation,
visualize a peaceful, powerful life force
breathing into you.
PAUSE
Keep breathing.
And center yourself
with this peaceful, powerful energy
settling in your core,
and radiating outward.
PAUSE
As you continue breathing,
allow yourself to see an image
of a beautiful woman
with flowing white robes.
She is seated on a pink lotus,
with an elephant by her side,
and you notice a jar of pure water
in one hand,
and in the other,
the single branch
of a willow tree.
PAUSE
Her goddess energy looms in the air.
Let yourself connect with it.
Her serenity embraces you.
Let yourself feel that serenity.
Her mercy touches you.
Let yourself feel that mercy.
PAUSE
Without saying a word,
she tells you
she is Kwan Yin.
PAUSE
After a moment,
Kwan Yin reaches out
with her graceful hand and
touches your heart
with the willow branch.
A flash of openness
sweeps through you,
And like the willow branch,
You have been flexible.
In life, you have bent,
and you have not broken,
no matter how hard the challenge.
PAUSE
In that moment,
you take a deep breath,
knowing that this goddess
sees you,
really sees you.
And that she shares
her boundless empathy
with you.
How are you feeling?
Reflect on knowing
this goddess sees you,
knows your pains,
and loves you
Endlessly.
PAUSE
After a moment,
Kwan Yin bows to you,
and vanishes into
the softness of the air.
PAUSE
So, take a moment and breathe deeply,
and as you do,
bring those feelings into your present.
Bring the awareness that you are loved endlessly
into your being.
And hold it there,
as you move into this day,
and all other days of your life.

ο»ΏAllow your mind to quiet
and still the voice in your head.
then let your body relax
Sink deeply into your bed.
LONG PAUSE
Let the stillness take over
as you go deep inside,
with tension dissolving
and peace as your guide.
LONG PAUSE
Follow the peace as it spreads
from head to toe,
relaxing your shoulders and your back,
your body as a whole.
LONG PAUSE
Now, envision a rosebud,
straight and tall,
waiting to blossom
with its red velvet petals.
PAUSE
The rosebud travels
deep to your inner garden;
it reaches the heart
where it wants to get started.
PAUSE
Slowly, the petals peek out,
just a little at first,
until the rose opens
with a splendid burst.
PAUSE
Love cascades in your heart,
when the rose bursts forth.
You can feel it growing in your body
all the way through your core.
PAUSE
You notice your skin
takes on the fragrance of rose,
and the feeling of love
supports your repose.
PAUSE
And, intuitively, you know
that if you touch someone’s hand
you’ll transfer the love
and feel it expand.
PAUSE
And then before your eyes,
a purple aster blooms
and journeys to your heart
bringing faith and wisdom.
PAUSE
And from the aster’s center
wisdom and faith are released,
and a sense of trusting yourself more
comes on with some peace.
PAUSE
So, take a few minutes
and dive deeply inward,
you hear “I trust myself”
coming to you as a whisper.
PAUSE
Now, recognize
the flowers of love and faith,
and notice a daffodil appears
gifting you with more traits.
PAUSE
Yellow daffodils shine light
on what is the truth.
They also bring forgiveness
which can be freeing to you.
PAUSE
So the daffodil lights up the heart
with what is honest and real
and cozies up to the rose and aster
creating an inner garden you feel.
PAUSE
So in a moment,
the truth of your life becomes clear,
and with love, you forgive mistakes
and let go with no fear.
PAUSE
Now, white edelweiss joins in,
filling up some heart spaces;
it’s a flower of courage
and not found in many places.
PAUSE
As it blooms, you know
you’ve been a tower of courage,
and you thank the edelweiss
and let go of any worry.
PAUSE
You pause for a moment,
gazing at the garden of your heart
feeling the power of the flowers
and what they impart.
PAUSE
Then, a marigold appears
with orange petals in layers
sparking creativity in you
that you want to share.
PAUSE
In your mind’s eye,
there’s a painting you paint,
the colors swirl together
and ignite your creativity
once again.
PAUSE
Then a rose in a yellow
that blossoms quite fair
Fills your heart with joy,
and then some to spare.
PAUSE
And it’s followed by a lily
with peace in its aura
bestowing its calm
which, of course, you adore.
PAUSE
Now, your heart is healing
with a rich flower bouquet
that shares its gifts
to ensure
you’re more than okay.
PAUSE
And with gratitude abounding,
you wrap up your bouquet,
you know it’s there blossoming
and ready for you, any day.

ο»ΏBreathe in and let yourself
deeply relax.
Feel yourself
letting go of stress,
letting go of tension,
and just completely relaxing.
PAUSE
Now, see if you can imagine,
walking along the beach,
in the pre-dawn hours,
with the moon, Mother Luna,
still shining her light
on the waves and sand.
PAUSE
And, as you walk along the shore,
you feel a sense of protection
coming from the moon,
as she lights your way.
PAUSE
You continue on your walk,
and with each step,
you feel more connected
to your emotions.
What are you feeling?
Give yourself permission
to feel the emotions,
knowing that Mother Luna
will protect you.
PAUSE
Now, take a deep breath,
and continue walking
along the shore.
PAUSE
After a moment,
you feel your third eye opening,
and the light of the moon
entering it.
As the moonlight enters,
visions come to you,
intuitive visions
of beautiful things
coming your way.
Take a moment,
and let those visions unfold.
PAUSE
Now, take a deep breath.
Relax.
And continue on your walk.
PAUSE
And, as your walking,
pause.
And gaze up at Mother Luna,
who seems to smile upon you
with infinite love.
Your gaze fills with love in return.
PAUSE
You continue gazing at the moon,
as she graciously fades her light,
so her brother,
the sun,
can light the day.
But as you move on into your day,
you feel gratitude for
Mother Luna’s
Protection,
Guidance,
And Love.

“I can be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it.” Maya Angelou.
Come inside,
And find your breath.
PAUSE…
Find your rhythm,
And find your center.
LONG PAUSE…
You are resilient.
You have everything within you,
To get back up,
Even after the most devastating failures,
The darkest seasons,
The heaviest burdens.
PAUSE…
You are so much stronger than you can comprehend.
PAUSE…
And your resilience through life,
Changes you,
Evolves you,
And strengthens you even more.
LONG PAUSE…
There’s a spring of strength,
Deep inside of you.
Constantly flowing fresh ideas,
Hope,
And determination,
To the surface.
PAUSE…
It will never run out,
It will never cease.
No matter how low you feel,
You can always tap into this spring.
It nourishes you with resilience.
PAUSE…
So breathe in,
And feel the springs within you flow.
Feel it fill your entire body,
Mind,
And spirit,
With resilience.
PAUSE…

ο»ΏCenter yourself,
breathing in deep,
purifying air,
air that opens
and cleanses you.
PAUSE
Keep breathing,
and let your breath
lift you high up
to that place
where creativity and imagination,
spirituality and love
all come together.
PAUSE
And while in this place,
see if you can imagine,
sitting on a bench,
with a diminutive woman
seated next to you–
a woman dressed humbly
with a simple blue and white
head covering a gown.
PAUSE
She turns to you,
looking you in the eyes,
and simply says, “Listen.”
Then, she is silent.
PAUSE
For many moments,
you and the nun
listen to the silence,
the pure, peaceful silence.
And it feels comfortable.
PAUSE
After a moment,
the nun turns toward you.
She reaches out
and takes your hands in hers,
then speaks.
“All children deserve to be cared for.”
“All children deserve to be loved.”
“All children deserve compassion.”
PAUSE
Another long pause ensues,
and then the nun rises from the bench
and begins walking away.
You take a deep breath,
and as you do,
she turns back to you.
“You, Child, deserve to be cared for.
You, Child, deserve to be loved.
You, Child, deserve compassion.
Give those to yourself.”
Then, she is gone.
PAUSE
You draw in another deep breath,
feeling the essence of her words,
touching you from the inside.
You hold onto her words.
PAUSE
And as this day,
and all days going forward begin,
you say those words to yourself,
reminding yourself that
you are a Child
who is worthy of all.

ο»ΏBreathe,
and let your shoulders sink,
your chest open up,
and your mind let go.
PAUSE
And, as you’re breathing,
see if you can imagine,
finding yourself
in the heart of a forest–
a lush, green forest,
filled with amazing
sights, sounds, and smells.
PAUSE
You see the canopy
of tall trees above you.
You hear the songs of birds,
and the rustle of leaves,
as rabbits and squirrels scurry.
And you smell the woody mist
of the forest.
PAUSE
Now, imagine if you can,
hearing a deep rustling noise
from a tall, proud tree,
And, as you gaze at the tree,
a woman appears from the trunk.
PAUSE
The woman is stunning,
with hair that flows
in blue-greens like the ocean,
and bright green leaves
trimmed in velvety green moss
draping her.
PAUSE
Now, as the woman approaches,
allow yourself
to see this woman
in all her natural beauty.
Notice trees bowing to her,
and animals of the forest
following her like a train.
PAUSE
As she draws closer,
you see the image
of the earth as her belly,
and you realize,
she is Mother Earth.
PAUSE
Mother Earth reaches out
to embrace you,
and as she wraps
her arms around you,
there is an instant
knowledge and connection
to all the natural world.
PAUSE
You feel the waves of the ocean
rolling in and around you.
You feel the strength of all trees
taking root in your core.
You feel the power of the mountains
bolstering you.
And, you feel the love of all that’s natural
running through you.
PAUSE
Mother Nature steps back,
and smiles at you.
And with a wave of her hand,
the mighty tree she came from
opens up and enfolds her.
And, as she fades
back into the natural world,
a part of her lives in you.
You are connected
to all that is natural,
to all that is Earth
to all born of Mother Earth.
NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL

ο»ΏI walk out of their room,
The littles are finally asleep.
My day isn’t quite over yet,
I feel a need so deep.
PAUSE
I push our door open,
And take a hopeful glance,
I already know what I’ll see,
Still I’m hoping there’s a chance.
PAUSE
Will you glance up from your screen,
Locking eyes with mine in need?
I wait for a few moments…
Nothing…despite my silent plead.
PAUSE
Disappointment fills my heart,
Loneliness carves a hole.
I can’t tell you how many times,
I have felt invisible.
LONG PAUSE
I don’t need the world to see me,
I already know who I am.
But when you look right past me,
It crushes me paper thin.
PAUSE
I often feel like I’m holding,
Everything we hold dear.
Juggling, pushing and getting it done,
While you’re anywhere but here.
PAUSE
At times, you stop and notice,
With words that feel sincere.
But most times I’m convinced,
You’ve forgotten that I’m here.
PAUSE
I want you to see me,
I’m not out of your view.
I want you to notice,
I’m pulling away from you.
PAUSE
Disappointment fills my heart,
Loneliness carves a hole.
I can’t tell you how many times,
I have felt invisible.
LONG LONG PAUSE
I calm myself down,
As breath flows and eases through.
It takes me awhile to remember,
My sense of self doesn’t come from you.
PAUSE
So slowly I touch inside,
And remember who I am,
I honor the pain but know that,
Staying here leaves me damned.
PAUSE
I see myself rise up,
And demand to be seen.
With love and hope, I tell you,
To honor me like a queen.
PAUSE
You wrap your arms around me,
Admitting where you went wrong.
I melt into you and feel relieved,
Grateful we’re so strong.
PAUSE
Gratitude fills my heart,
Tenderness fills that hole.
I promise to tell you every time,
I feel invisible.
Namaste, Beautiful

Take a moment,
and connect with your body.
Feel it in the present moment.
Prepare it for your meditation time.
PAUSE
Now, breathe,
and gently lift up your arms
to open your chest.
Allow yourself to feel the openness,
the flow of life through you.
PAUSE
Now, breathe in deep,
and imagine tasting something smoky.
Maybe a piece of cheese,
or a nut,
or a glass of fine wine.
Savor the taste.
A little bit of smoky flavor is good.
PAUSE
Now, give yourself a minute,
and think how it might be
if that smokiness was with you
all the time.
It might be uncomfortable after a while,
just like smoke in the air.
It might physically and mentally bother you.
PAUSE
There are times in life
where something just keeps bothering us.
It feels like it won’t let go.
And while it does this,
it takes our attention away
from where it's needed.
PAUSE
Now, draw in a deep breath,
and as you exhale,
visualize those nagging things
in your life
blowing out of you like smoke,
then dissipating.
Breathe in and out again,
as much as you need,
until you feel clear.
Hold the clear space.
Breathe easy.
PAUSE
Now, take one more deep breath,
and as you exhale,
allow yourself to acknowledge
that you have the power
to shift those things that won’t let go.
Visualize them as a smoky mist,
and just exhale
until you feel clear.
.
NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL

Take a deep breath,
And gently exhale,
Breathe in peace and relaxation,
Until you feel well.
PAUSE
It’s time to open up;
It’s time for yourself;
These moments are precious,
And good for your health.
PAUSE
Now, imagine a time when you were angry,
Let it gently sit in your mind.
Keep your distance from the feeling,
So your teeth don’t grind.
PAUSE
Because anger is that emotion,
That is much like a crunch!
If not kept in check,
It can lead to a punch.
PAUSE
Why does it do that?
Because you’re holding it in.
What you really need,
Is a safe way to express it,
Without giving in.
PAUSE
So, imagine your anger
As popcorn, candy or seeds,
Or celery, cucumbers,
Or apples from trees.
PAUSE
And acknowledge these foods,
With their crunch and their taste,
Each offer a gift
That you won’t want to waste.
PAUSE
For with crunchy comes healthy,
and sometimes sweet,
So when your angry
It’s important to find that little treat.
And that treat is inside;
It’s what your anger says you need,
Speak it, write it
Just do it constructively.
And when the crunch is released,
And your body is calm,
You’ll be glad you expressed it,
You'll be ready to move on.

Breathe in sweet air,
Let it fill your whole being,
Relax and indulge.
It’s your time,
And taking this time
is freeing.
PAUSE
Keep breathing, and take a moment,
to gently stretch your body,
Visualize it opening up,
Releasing tension,
so your muscles loosen
and are no longer knotty.
PAUSE
There are times in life
when challenges are rough.
That’s the time in life
to open up, and find the fluff.
PAUSE
When you think of fluff,
It’s easy to see
marshmallows, clouds, pillows,
And cotton candy.
PAUSE
But fluff in your life is really your comfort zone,
Where you rejuvenate,
invigorate,
And feel special alone.
It’s your time to invest in you–
Letting go of your troubles,
And feeling anew.
PAUSE
So, imagine the rough spots
that zap your energy and time.
Breathe and throw a little fluff on them,
and feel yourself unwind.
PAUSE
So, imagine tension unspooling,
Like cotton candy so pink.
And your headache melting into pillows,
Where you let yourself sink.
PAUSE
And feel fluffy feathers,
Lift you up high.
On those days when your hard on yourself,
And you don’t know why.
PAUSE
Know your fluff can soften rough days,
And ease falls on the hard ones.
Just remember your fluff loves you,
And will always come.
For your fluff floats
all around you,
Like a cushion so soft
It will protect and surround you,
And bring you peace…a lot!

Slow down,
And breathe…
PAUSE…
Bring yourself into your body,
And out of your head.
PAUSE…
Find the rhythm of your breath,
And ride its waves of air as it enters,
And exits,
Your body.
PAUSE…
Breathing in and filling you,
Breathing out and relaxing you.
PAUSE…
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
PAUSE…
Feel yourself open,
Ready to invite in healing.
LONG PAUSE…
See if you can imagine,
A small, soft cloud,
Hovering over your heart.
PAUSE…
It’s light and warm,
And slowly rains its healing waters upon your heart.
PAUSE…
Drip by drip,
You can feel yourself relax,
And cleanse.
Relax,
And release all that is dark,
All that is broken,
All that is in pain.
PAUSE…
Feel yourself melt under the rain,
Open,
And soften.
LONG PAUSE…
Now imagine this soft cloud of healing,
Cover your head,
Releasing its healing raindrops upon you.
Relaxing you,
Melting you,
And washing away all that has been bruised.
LONG PAUSE…
The cloud moves down your body,
And hovers over your belly.
Feel yourself soften and open to its presence.
PAUSE…
Each raindrop enters you,
Repairing what has been broken,
Restoring what has been disturbed.
PAUSE…
Feel yourself relax,
Opening even further to the hum of the healing raindrops.
LONG PAUSE…
Now imagine this gentle cloud expanding,
Covering your entire body.
PAUSE…
Its warmth soothes you,
And its waters soften you.
PAUSE…
Each raindrop falls upon you,
Absorbed into your skin,
And searches for the dark,
Seeks out the pain.
PAUSE…
No memory can hide.
No part of you is invisible.
PAUSE…
You soften and open even more,
You melt even deeper,
As the healing raindrops flood you with love.
LONG PAUSE…
Sweet Dreams, Beautiful.

Hey, it's Katie, and today, I'm here to say hello and give you a little update.
It's May 1st today, which means we're stepping into Mental Health Awareness Month.
What have you been doing to be kind to your mind lately?
On today's solo episode, I'm sharing about some fun, extra meditations we're putting out for you across the network, some for mental health, some for moms, and some to share about other podcasts the team and I love to support our mental health.
I'm also sharing the two things that are working really well for my mental health lately!
And...I'm sharing a poem I wrote in one of those "ugly" moments of life. I hope it resonates and that you are inspired to continue on your perfectly imperfect journey of being you!
Namaste, Beautiful,
Katie

Take in a welcoming breath,
one that connects you
with the dawning
of a new day.
PAUSE
Breathe in again,
letting the air,
open you
to the present moment.
Bask in it.
PAUSE
Life is full of flavors.
You are full of flavors.
And when you feel
strong and confident,
witty and empowered,
smart and sassy,
you add a little spice
to life.
PAUSE
So, take another breath,
draw it in slowly,
and feel it energizing you
from head to toe.
PAUSE
Now, take a moment,
and visualize your day.
See yourself sauntering
through it.
See yourself flashing smiles
as you walk down the street.
See yourself making witty jokes
at work.
And see yourself feeling
confident and empowered.
Stay with those images.
Hold onto that energy.
PAUSE
Now, breathe in again,
And as you do,
Imagine your favorite food dish.
See it.
Smell it.
Taste it.
Now, see yourself as the secret spice
that adds the kick to the dish!
PAUSE
Hold onto your power.
Hold onto your confidence.
Hold onto your spice.
