Feel the Earth
Beneath Your Feet
Open your eyes and feel the earth beneath you. Imagine roots extending from your feet deep into the ground.

Breathe DeeplyÂ
Take a deep breath in, visualizing the Earth's energy rising up these roots and filling your body.

Exhale
​Exhale, releasing any stress, tension, or negativity back into the Earth.
ATTUNING TO SOUNDS
Close your eyes again and focus on the sounds around you. The chirping of the birds, the rustling of leaves, the gentle breeze.

Each sound is a voice in the chorus of morning. Imagine these sounds entering your ears and becoming a part of you, connecting you to nature's waking moments.
In the city and need

SUN GAZING
​Next, open your eyes and look towards the horizon where the sun is about to rise. Keep your gaze soft and relaxed. Whiteness the sky shifting through shades of blue, purples, and pinks, and reds as the sun makes itself known.
As you watch, think about the promise that each new day holds. The sun is a symbol of hope, renewal, and the eternal cycle of life.

Breathe deeply and take in the energy that's being sent to you and through you. Be silent and soak it all in for as long as you can...
