Hey there , if you might be looking for a little more peace and serenity in your world right now , here's a five-minute meditation that might just do the trick . We're going to center on love and peace and finding serenity , so find a comfortable seated position or lie down whatever feels right for you in this moment , just ensuring that your spine is straight . When you're comfortable , go ahead and close your eyes gently and take a deep , deep breath in through your nose , feeling your lungs expand , and exhale slowly through your mouth , letting any tension melt away . I'm going to repeat this , breathing two more times , breathing in deeply , inhaling peace and exhaling stress . I want you to shift your awareness now to your body . Feel the weight of your body as it is supported by the chair or the surface beneath you . Imagine roots extending from your body into the earth , anchoring you in the earth's grounding energy and , with each exhale , let go of any scattered thoughts . Again , with each inhale , visualize drawing in the earth's grounding energy and , on the exhale , let go of any scattered , messy thoughts .
Lisa HopkinsNow I want you to bring to mind someone or something that you deeply love , or gratitude , expanding in your chest and radiating warmth like a soft , glowing light . Allow this light to grow , filling your entire body with its soothing presence . Visualize the light of love and peace expanding now beyond your body . Imagine this light traveling outward from your center , outward , touching towards those you care about , and then extending further to your community , your city , your country and the world .
Lisa HopkinsCountry and the world Silently repeating may all beings be happy , may all beings be safe , may all beings be at peace . Now draw your attention back to yourself . Feel the loving energy you sent outward flowing back to you now , a reminder that peace begins within . Rest in the stillness of this moment , knowing that your light and love make a difference in the world . Breathe in serenity and exhale harmony , gently bringing your awareness to the sounds around you and sensations in your body . Now Wiggle your fingers and toes , bringing movement back into your body . Take a final deep breath in and , as you exhale , open your eyes , carrying this sense of peace and love with you into your day . Namaste , my friends .
