Welcome to today's short, guided meditation
In celebration of Teacher Appreciation Week.
For this meditation, we are going to focus on the lessons you have learned throughout life...
And send gratitude to the teachers who have been present.
Find a comfortable position and close your eyes.
Connect with your body, Feeling where you are in space...
Feel the natural rhythm of your breath...
The gentle rise and fall of your chest...
Breathe in...
And out...
Think back to a teacher that was present in your childhood.
Which of their lessons are you most grateful for?
How did they support you?
Send them gratitude and respect.
Think of a friend that has been a teacher to you...
What lessons did you learn?
Send this friend gratitude and respect.
Think of a situation in which you have been a teacher to yourself...
What did you learn?
How did this change you?
Send yourself gratitude and respect.
Come back again to your breathing...
Feeling the gentle rise and fall of your chest...
Breathing in...
And out...
Bring awareness to your body, Feeling where you are in space...
Move about in any way that feels good...
Slowly coming back to your body in this time and space...
And whenever you are ready, Slowly open your eyes.
