Today's meditation explores the strength that comes from authenticity, 3 00:00:28,281 --> 00:00:34,841 Speaker 1: the courage to be seen as we truly are. Your 4 00:00:35,081 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: morning mantra, I show up as my whole self. Let's begin. 5 00:00:48,361 --> 00:00:52,001 Speaker 2: If it's safe to do so, close your eyes or 6 00:00:52,040 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 2: lower your gaze. Relax your eyes, relax your ears, relax 7 00:01:00,881 --> 00:01:08,161 Speaker 2: your jaw, relax your shoulders down, and bring your attention 8 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:18,401 Speaker 2: to your breath, drawing your breath into your heart space. 9 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 2: Authenticity is when we live from the inside out, when 10 00:01:29,401 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 2: we know ourselves intimately and our outside world aligns with 11 00:01:37,161 --> 00:01:47,161 Speaker 2: our inside world. Living wholeheartedly comes from living with authenticity, 12 00:01:49,761 --> 00:01:51,001 Speaker 2: no masks. 13 00:01:52,361 --> 00:02:03,881 Speaker 1: No shrinking, no pretending. When we show up as ourselves honestly, 14 00:02:06,401 --> 00:02:20,201 Speaker 1: we live with freedom, our voice strong and true, fully present. 15 00:02:23,601 --> 00:02:33,321 Speaker 1: We are naturally seen as others are attracted to our honesty, 16 00:02:33,881 --> 00:02:42,361 Speaker 1: to our unwavering bravery to be us. When we allow 17 00:02:42,401 --> 00:02:54,081 Speaker 1: our light, our ideas, our shadows, all of us to exist, 18 00:02:56,441 --> 00:03:09,561 Speaker 1: to breathe, to belong, we invite, encourage, and we inspire 19 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: others to do the same. Today's mantra, I show up 20 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: as my whole self. Repeat to yourself, either out loud 21 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,561 Speaker 1: or in your mind. I show up as my whole self, 22 00:03:34,961 --> 00:03:41,521 Speaker 1: bringing your awareness back to your breath, breathing in and 23 00:03:41,601 --> 00:03:51,361 Speaker 1: out of your heart space. May you be happy, may 24 00:03:51,401 --> 00:03:59,041 Speaker 1: you be well, May you be free from stress, worry, fear, 25 00:03:59,801 --> 00:04:05,641 Speaker 1: and anxiety. And may your whole life be truly blessed. 26 00:04:09,201 --> 00:04:15,121 Speaker 1: Bringing your awareness back to the space around you and 27 00:04:15,241 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: slowly opening your eyes to increase self awareness and growth. 28 00:04:25,641 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: I invite you to listen to this evening's reflection.
