Finding a comfortable, supported, and relaxed position. As youbreathe in, notice areas of the body where you may be holding tension orbusyness of mind. Exhaling, relax and let go whatever you can. Direct yourattention to that gentle lift of your chest as you breathe in. Let yourshoulders soften and chest relax as you exhale. Enjoy one more deep breath in,deep breath out, then find your natural rhythm of breath.Bring to mind a place you are thankful for. Here, if you haven’t already, you mightclose your eyes, and bring this place fully to your imagination. Perhaps youare in that place. Perhaps it’s a vacation spot or somewhere in your home. Isthe place indoors or outdoors? Bring to your memory and imagination what yousee, what you can touch and feel, the aromas on the air, the sounds. If this isa space with food and drink, perhaps bring to mind any tastes you’ve experiencedin this place. Imagine being fully immersed in this place. Are you alone, or areother people present? How does it feel in your body to be in this place? Imaginethose feelings of ease and freedom, of love and support, of joy and excitement.Here, say out loud or softly to yourself, “I am thankful for [name the place].I am thankful for… I am thankful for…” Now, gently open your eyes, and take a moment to journal about this place. Include details of what this place looks like, including descriptions of what you sense in thisplace. Perhaps a pleasant memory comes to mind, write down what you remember.Note what it is about this place that you are thankful for. Take as much timeas you need. Feel free to pause this recording to continue writing. Once you’ve journaled about this place, take a moment of gratitude for the space you’re in here and now, the physical space, the time and space you’ve given yourself to pause and reflect and extend gratitude, the mental space you’ve cleared to direct yourthoughts toward the space you’re thankful for. Move through your day or intorest, thankful for those places that give you a sense of peace, support, andjoy. Thank you for meditating with me. Peace. Written + Performed by: Jessica Haessly
