A magnetic awakening

What a privilege to wake up in this house! The sun is streaming in through the windows to feed the soul. I breathe in deeply being revitalized by the early morning air. The day is awakening in me with every deep breath I take. I am grateful for the opportunity to live life today. I am inspired to slip into the IS rune position and meditate on my inner magnetism growing and strengthening more and more.

My imagination paints a picture of a soul nourished by the sweet nectar of life itself. As the sun rises, each ray of light seems to touch my spirit and breathe new life into every pore of my being. The world comes alive around me, not just outside my window, but within my heart, soul, and mind. I raise my thoughts to it’s noblest heights .

How lucky I am to begin my day with such clarity, gratitude, and pure joy. May each breath I take today be a reminder of the beauty and wonder that surrounds me in this glorious world. I will step into this day full of power and health.

I step into the day not just with my feet, but with my whole being. My mind is a canvas of possibilities, my heart an untamed force of love, and my soul a beacon of light. Each step forward is a declaration of my power and intent, each breath a testament to my courage and strength. The world is my stage and I will with the best of my knowledge and abilities to help, assist and protect my fellow human beings. I embrace the wonder of life and let it carry me forward into the dawn of a new day, where adventure awaits and dreams are realized.

The stillness of the morning captures the magic of the moment when the sun’s rays kisses the earth’s first smile. I love how I am able to see the world this morning through glasses of gratitude and the aroma of coffee brewing. Let the energy of the sun flow into my consciousness of being!

ARAHARI!

~ morning intent ~

As I breathe deeply, I feel the fresh morning air fill my lungs. I am open to the guidance of my inner self, and I allow it to lead me through the first steps of this day. I hope to be enthusiastic about the day ahead, compassionate to those around me, and open to learning more about this amazing experience we call life.

I sit in stillness, preparing myself to direct my first thoughts towards the life and being I wish to create for myself. Before I am touched and influenced by the thoughts, emotions, and reactions of others, I want to focus on my own inner peace and clarity. My first task of the day is to calm my mind and bring order to my thoughts and actions. It is in these first baby steps that I plant the seeds of a life that inspires and brings healing, not only to myself but also to others and to the planet.

There are days when my intentions falter, even after I have set them with good heart. Harsh words or a small incident can derail my train of thought. However, as I persist in this practice, I find that I am able to maintain my focus for longer and longer periods of time. Every bit of progress gives me the will and strength to renew my intention for the day, with the confidence that I will succeed. The cumulative effects of persistence will bear fruit, and I celebrate each day’s progress with confidence and gratitude.

I am confident that the qualities of gratitude, enthusiasm, compassion, and learning will be present in my life today. I know that all the forces of nature, both spiritual and mental, will support me in this important endeavor.

Starting the day right

If I could wake up in the morning to the gentle sound of music, uplifting my spirit and guiding me on an inner journey to my loftiest thoughts, how different my life would be! Like a prayer or sacrifice, this would be my first ritual of the day, with the firm intent of setting small goals for myself to live with virtue and act with virtue on the lofty heights of inspiration and hope.

The days will come when my body is tired, but wouldn’t it be a lovely experience if the pure power of habit could softly lift my soul to a new level of the next phase of existence? Simply smoothing the soul with the sharp rise of mellow thoughts. Yes, I am setting myself a new goal for my automatic writing: to uplift myself and cultivate the crafty skill of simplifying my morning routine so that I can rise with the habit of being positive, energetic, and in harmony with my inner world.

Now, in my time of luxury, I have the space, time, and convenience to cultivate a habit that can serve me well until the very end. Isn’t the first hour of my humble day an opportunity to live with honor and insight? My spiritual and philosophical journey has led me slowly to the sacred moment of realization: to declare the first few waking minutes sacred and holy.

The Sabbath is not only the seventh day, but also the first flimsy hour of the day.

I feel life pouring through my body from my human soul. I grasp life with enthusiasm. I deal with it gently, making each thought conscious and a deliberate expression brought into inner harmony, and expanding it into hope to put action behind the dreams I still hold dear as I awake.
