Hey there, good morning and welcome to Wake Me Up. I'm so glad you're here today for a meditation on this week's theme of mastering yourself. In this meditation, we will use visualization to help orient you around becoming the best version of yourself. You'll see the differences between who you are now and who you want to be. And seeing that will help you master yourself. So let's dive right in and get started.

I recommend that you meditate sitting and any seat in your home will do. However, you technically can meditate in any position you'd like. So feel free to find a position that works best for you. The most important thing is that the body isn't a distraction. So find a comfortable position, whatever that looks like for you. And once you've found that position, just allow yourself to settle in. Take a deep breath, filling all the way into your lungs. And as you exhale, slowly close your eyes.

Take this first moment just to relax into a meditative state. It takes a little time to let your mind soften down. And a couple of things that can help with that. or just relaxing your face, softening your jaw and dropping your shoulders down. For this first minute or so, just follow your breath. Enjoy that rise and fall

and notice the little nuances of the breaths you take. As you do that, you'll draw deeper and deeper within yourself. All right, now that you're settled in, bring to mind yourself. visualize you as the person you want to be, the best version of you, doing the things you hope for,

living the life of your dreams. See all of the aspects of it, what your day to day is like, what you spend your time on, who you spend your time with, what you look like, what you feel like in this dream life, and really enjoy the feeling

of being the best version of you. All right. Now begin to look even closer into the details of your life as this best version of you. What habits have you developed that got you here? What habits have you let go of?

What relationships have changed? How are you spending your time? What parts of yourself have you taken control of? That is to say, in what ways have you grown and mastered who you are? The simple fact is that you can be this version of yourself. You can be exactly who you dream to be.

In fact, you already are that person. You're just still on the path of developing yourself. So be inspired by you, the you that's five years ahead of where you are right now, living that life you wish for. You can do that. You can create that. You can be that version of you.

Repeat those words to yourself. I can be the best version of me. Just for a minute, say that to yourself and really let that vision of self-belief sink in. I can be the best version of me. We're getting close to the end of our meditation, so you can let go of all of that. Come back to your breath and just let your mind go for this last minute, anywhere it wants to go. Just let your thoughts unwind before we wrap up.

All right, it's time to wrap up our meditation now. So begin to bring yourself back. Notice whatever's supporting you, whether it's the chair, the floor, a couch, whatever you're resting. on. Notice the air on your skin. Notice any sounds going on in the room. And maybe you want to bring some gentle movement to the body just to start waking up and coming out of that. Take one last inhale, the deepest one you've taken yet. And on your exhale, slowly open your eyes, and just take a second to come out of that. All right. So I hope you enjoyed that visualization, and that it has you inspired to be the best version of you.

My friend, you are wildly capable. You have all of the tools you need to succeed at creating this life you dream of. You simply must put it into action. Tomorrow, we'll be back with a motivational episode that will get you to do just that. So I hope to see you there, and until then, go out.

practice being the best version of yourself and have an absolutely fantastic day
