So dear listeners, wherever you are, even if you are walking, going for a jog,
you are on a commute, sitting on a train, a bus, or you are cleaning your house or doing homework.
If you allow yourself to just be still for a few minutes and allow me to guide you in a little meditation.
I think what is appropriate after this podcast is to generate love for oneself.
So let us reconnect to the breath.
Just become aware of our body.
If we're standing, sitting, if there's any tension in our shoulders, in our back, in our face.
Just release the tension and become aware of the in-breath as I breathe in.
I know this is an in-breath.
As I breathe out, I know this is in out-breath.
Just identify this is in-breath and this is out-breath.
And now let us concentrate with the in-breath.
As I breathe in, I follow my in-breath from the beginning to the end.
And as I breathe out, I concentrate on my out-breath, following the out-breath from the beginning to the end.
Let the breath bring the mind home to the body in this very minute, very moment.
Allow yourself to connect to the sensations in your body.
Breathing in, I am aware of my body.
I accept my body.
And breathing out, I smile to my body.
Our body has worked very hard throughout the years.
It needs our gentleness, our tenderness, our awareness.
Now offer it the care and the love that is deep in our hearts.
Aware of my body.
I offer love to my body.
Breathing in.
My past is also very present.
I bring my understanding and my compassion in this very moment to shine light to my past.
Breathing in, the past is in the now.
Breathing out, I will transform the past.
I will heal the past.
I will take care of the past in the very here and now.
Breathing in, I have compassion for myself.
Breathing out, I accept myself.
Now with this love, this compassion inside of us,
I offer it to my loved ones around me.
Breathing in, I can think of a person that is very dear to me, that needs my love, needs my compassion.
I hold them in my heart.
And breathing out, I send my loving-kindness, my compassion, my joy, my...
and my inclusiveness to that person.
In, love inside of me.
Out, I offer this love to the ones that are dear to me.
Breathing in, this is the present moment.
Breathing out, this is a wonderful moment.
