So Let’s Begin…
BEING IN THE NOW MORNING MEDITATION SCRIPT
Take a deep breath,
in and out,
and think for just a minute
how often you live life
in the future.
PAUSE…
You might feel worry or anxiety
about something in the distance,
something that is not now.
You might hear the words
“should do” or “should not do”
being repeated in your brain.
Or, you might think
there’s not enough time,
so you hurry,
scramble
and add stress to yourself.
PAUSE…
Now, breathe in again,
a deep calming breath
that opens and relaxes you.
And, as you do this,
you hear a tiny whisper
that tickles your ear saying,
“I live in the now.”
PAUSE…
As you continue breathing and relaxing,
you notice the tiny whisper again,
“I live in the now”
and the words begin dancing in front of you.
PAUSE…
You may smile,
as the words swoop and sashay
before you,
like a ballet
on the movie screen of your mind.
PAUSE…
After a moment,
you notice the words
begin to march,
and they march to the heart
where they form
a protective circle around it.
PAUSE…
And as the words guard your heart,
you notice a gentle shift within,
as if your mind eases and slows.
Everything slows
and you savor the moment–
a peaceful moment–
in the now.
PAUSE…
And in your moment of peace,
you hear another whisper
with promises for you,
A promise to let the
“shoulds” and “should nots” go–
until it’s their time to be.
A promise to let the future
come in its time.
And a promise to
carry the peaceful now with you…
always.
NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
