So Let’s Begin…
THE GIFTS YOU SEE IN OTHERS MEDITATION SCRIPT
Take a minute
To just slough off the stress.
Breathe.
Relax.
Breathe.
Relax.
PAUSE
And, as you keep breathing,
Just melt into relaxation,
Letting go of any stray thoughts,
And any areas of tension within you.
PAUSE
It’s amazing when
We look in others’ eyes,
And all their beauty, goodness and gifts
Shine through.
PAUSE
So, pause for just a moment,
And imagine seeing someone–
Anyone you know–
And really seeing them,
Maybe for the first time.
PAUSE
See yourself looking into their eyes,
Into the windows to their soul,
And knowing at a deep level
Who they really are.
PAUSE
Now breathe.
And let all the positive feelings–
All the goodness–
Of this person
Bubble up in you,
Clearly rise to the surface,
So you can express them.
PAUSE
Slow your thoughts,
And take each one
Of these feelings,
Each one of these gifts
In this person,
And just bless them.
Bless the beautiful,
Positive feelings and goodness
You uncover
from this person.
PAUSE
Breathe.
And sit with these feelings.
Sit with your love or caring
For this person.
Sit with this new understanding
Of who they are.
Sit with this deepened connection
To them.
PAUSE
And, as you take in all
This powerful, connecting energy,
Envision a mirror in front of you.
PAUSE
And, as you gaze into the mirror,
All the beautiful, positive parts
Of this person
Are being reflected
Back to you.
PAUSE
Now, take a deep breath,
A breath of acceptance,
For all these beautiful gifts.
PAUSE
And, as you go about your day,
Remember…
All the positive, beautiful things
You find in others,
Are reflections of you.
Reflections of you.
NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
