Now before our episode begins, here's a quick word from today's sponsors.
Hey there, good morning.
Welcome to Wake Me Up and to this morning meditation that is designed to boost your energy.
When we need energy, we often turn to things like caffeine or sugar, but these can have negative
effects on the body too.
What we need to realize is that our bodies hold a significant amount of energy all the
time, and we just have to learn how to tap into it.
In this morning meditation, we'll do just that.
So find a comfortable position that you'd like to meditate in.
And for this meditation, I do strongly recommend that you'd do strongly recommend that you
you sit up as this is going to help the blood move through your body and deliver energy.
But of course, you can do this in any position that works best for you.
Once you've found that position, gotten yourself situated.
Just allow yourself to settle. Take a nice deep breath in,
filling all the way up through your chest and your belly, hold at the top,
and then exhale, release, and gently,
Close your eyes.
Mentally set aside anything else that you have to do today,
anything that's on your mind.
It doesn't matter right now.
This time is for you to prepare your mind and body for the day ahead.
Let go of any tension you're holding on to.
Relax your shoulders.
Soften your face.
Great.
Now we're going to begin to take some deep breaths.
The breath is the engine.
of the body. By increasing the breath volume and rate, we can naturally engage the energy systems
of the body. So envision your body as a vessel, an empty tank. And with each breath you take,
you're filling up that vessel. Each breath is like a bucket of energy that you're pouring
into your body. You can think of it just like filling up the gas tank in your car.
So breathe with me.
Inhale.
Fill all the way up through your chest and your belly.
Maximum capacity.
And then exhale.
Let the air go out.
Again, inhale.
Each time filling all the way up and exhale.
And as you breathe, visualize your body, that empty vessel,
filling up with energy from the bottom up.
Inhale again.
filling up, starting at your feet, exhale.
Inhale again.
This time it's slowly rising up your legs.
Inhale again.
As this energy fills your body,
each area that it's filled begins to shine with light.
So keep inhaling and exhaling nice and deep at your own pace
and feel that energy moving up the body.
Your tank is filling and the fill line is crossing over your knees, moving up your thighs
to your hips.
And as it does, your legs are getting brighter, lighter, shining with energy.
You keep breathing deeper and more fully and it begins to fill through your belly, your abdomen,
up your back and your chest, healing deeply and exhaling, letting it all fall back.
And now your body is full of energy up to your shoulders.
It spreads out your arms to your hands.
Take another deep breath.
Maybe with an extra sip of air at the top.
Then exhale.
And feel that energy filling up through your neck.
And all the way up to your head.
Take another deep breath and feel yourself overflowing with energy.
There's nowhere else for that light, that brightness to go.
So it begins to shine from the top of your head.
Inhaling again nice and deep.
Always keeping that breath moving.
Never letting it linger.
I know you might want to, but keep that breath moving.
And as you keep churning the breath,
that light reaches farther and higher,
shining brighter from the crown of your head.
The energy that always lives within you.
Take one final deep breath.
the deepest one yet.
Inhale.
Hold at the top this time.
Take an extra sip of air and then exhale.
Release.
You may feel a little lightheaded.
That's okay.
Just relax.
And notice that you may not even need to breathe right now.
Your body is that full of oxygen.
And whenever you're ready,
begin to bring yourself back.
Notice whatever's supporting you,
whether that's a chair, the floor, or something else.
Take one final deep breath in, hold, and then exhale, release.
And when you're ready, you can open your eyes,
gather yourself, and come out of that.
While, my friend, I hope you enjoyed that meditation,
that deep breathing practice,
and that you're feeling revitalized and ready for the day ahead.
We have so much energy stored in our bodies all the time.
But because the modern day life keeps us seated and inactive most of the day,
we're not utilizing that energy fully.
This breathing technique will help you tap into it when you need it.
But that's all for now.
Thanks so much for joining me here,
and I hope to see you back here soon on Wake Me Up.
Until next time, go out and have an absolutely fantastic day.
