Lift Your Spirits Up - Bringing Love And Joy Into Your Life
Meditation Practice
This is a simple meditation practice you can do. I created this practice and I do this practice every day multiple times a day. This practice makes me feel calm and content. You can do this any time, anywhere with slight variation. I even do this in my car while driving. You are welcome to use this practice or create your own. I also created a voice recording that you can listen to if you like. Let’s begin.
You can listen to the voice recoding on my website:
Close your eyes. Take a deep breath, take another one and now imagine that it’s only you there’s nothing and no one around you.
Keep taking some nice deep breaths in and out. I want you to repeat these words with me.
I am love. I am joy. I am gratefulness. My home is stillness.
You are love. You are joy. You are gratefulness. Your home is stillness.
We are love. We are joy. We are gratefulness. Our home is stillness.
All is love. All is joy. All is gratefulness. All our home is stillness.
All is love. All is joy. All is gratefulness. All our home is stillness.
Everything is love. Everything is joy. Everything is gratefulness. Our home is stillness.
Love is Stillness.
I am love. I am joy. I am gratefulness. My home is stillness.
Now, I want you to imagine that you fill your body with love joy.
Imagine, a color, your favorite color whatever it is a filling up your bodily with that color and send it out to the world and beyond. To everything and everyone you know and even beyond that the whole world, the universe the multiverse to every living thing.
Keep taking some nice deep breaths. Now if you have any feelings of any negativity in your life just imagine those feelings slipping out of your body say goodbye to them. You don’t need them and feel your love and joy in your body. Bring the love and joy into your body instead of anything else. Now go back to the beginning and keep repeating the same thing where we started:
I am love. I am joy. I am gratefulness. My home is stillness.
You are love. You are joy. You are gratefulness. Your home is stillness.
We are love. We are joy. We are gratefulness. Our home is stillness.
All is love. All is joy. All is gratefulness. Our home is stillness.
Everything is love. Everything is joy. Everything is gratefulness. Our home is stillness.
Love is Stillness.
An example of a breathing technique you can use:
Purpose: Paying attention to one thing, a chosen target your breath.
Reduce anxiety and accept present experience
What you need to do: get into a comfortable position, sitting or lying down
Time: 1–3 minutes
Pay attention to your surroundings, get comfortable
If your mind wonders just bring it back to your breath
Focus on your breathing nothing else
Breathe in slowly through your nose and out (through nose or mouth) and observe yourself berating
Option: Count to three while breathing in and out
You can count your breath; let’s take 4 breaths’ together
Take 4 breaths in and out
If your attention wonders, it is fine, just bring it back to your breathing
Variation: inhale through one nostril while holding the other and exhale through the other nostril
Thank you for breathing with me,
Gabriella
