Today's Meditation:
Come to a comfortable position with a straight spine. Take slow deep breaths and relax your entire body. Soften your skin, your muscles, your bones. Focus on your breathing for a few minutes, simply following your breath as it moves in and out of your body.
Then say out loud as you inhale, "I AM" and as you exhale beginning reciting all the things you are:
Strong
Love
Abundance
Peace
Fulfilled
Happy
In love
Purposeful
etc...
Do this for as long as you can, then simply return to your breathing for a few more minutes. Enjoy the stillness!
