Before We Begin…

Find a quiet, comfortable place where you can be undisturbed.

Perhaps you dim the lights, light a candle, or wrap yourself in a warm blanket.

This is your time to soften, to reflect, to close the day with gratitude and presence.

Sit or lie down comfortably. Allow your hands to rest gently in your lap or on your heart.

Close your eyes.

Take a deep breath in through the nose… a slow, deep inhale, filling your lungs completely.

And exhale through the mouth… releasing tension, releasing worry, releasing the weight of the day.

Again, inhale deeply… drawing in peace, stillness, and acceptance.

Exhale slowly… letting go of everything that no longer needs to be carried.

Drop your shoulders. Unclench your jaw. Relax the space between your brows.

With each breath, feel yourself settling into this moment.

Let the outside world fade. Let the mind soften. Let yourself simply be.

Reviewing the Day with Compassion

The day has come and gone.

Moments have passed, some beautiful, some challenging, some fleeting and unnoticed.

Before you step into tomorrow, allow yourself to pause and review today with compassion.

Bring to mind a moment that made you smile.
Perhaps it was a kind word, a shared laugh, the warmth of the sun on your skin.
Hold this moment in your heart. Let gratitude rise within you.

Breathe it in.

Now, reflect on a challenge you faced today.
Was there a moment of frustration? A mistake? A feeling of doubt?
Instead of judgment, offer yourself understanding.

Whisper gently: I did the best I could with what I knew in that moment.

Breathe in self-acceptance.
Breathe out self-judgment.

Now, think of something you learned today, big or small.

Every experience holds a lesson, a whisper of wisdom meant to guide you forward.

What did today teach you?

Perhaps it taught you patience.
Perhaps it showed you the power of presence.
Perhaps it reminded you of your strength.

Whatever it is, acknowledge it. Honor it.

Breathe in growth.
Breathe out resistance.

Setting Intentions for Tomorrow

Tomorrow is a blank page. A fresh canvas. A new beginning.

How do you wish to step into it?

Set an intention.

It could be something simple "Tomorrow, I will move with more patience."
"Tomorrow, I will speak to myself with kindness."
"Tomorrow, I will embrace whatever comes with an open heart."

Let this intention settle within you, like a seed planted in fertile soil.

Breathe in possibility.
Breathe out doubt.

Whatever happened today is done.

Whatever comes tomorrow is yet to unfold.

Right now, in this moment, all is well.

Returning to the Present with Peace

Slowly, begin to bring awareness back to your body.

Wiggle your fingers. Wiggle your toes.

Take a deep inhale… and sigh it out, releasing any last remnants of the day.

When you are ready, gently open your eyes.

Pause. Notice how you feel.

Lighter? More at peace? More present?

Carry this stillness into your evening. Let it guide you into rest, into restoration, into the soft embrace of sleep.

Before you leave this space, ask yourself:

"What is one thing I am grateful for today?"

Reflect. Journal if you feel called to.

And remember…

Each day is a lesson.
Each moment is a gift.
You are always growing, always evolving, always enough.

Until we meet again.
