Sit quietly and listen to the flow of your heart, to how it slows down and beats calmly when you tell it to go into the flow of life, into the flow of the calm air around you, and how it begins to hold itself in a steady state of persistent peacefulness. Let it be as it is. Without tension or intention, just be with the sound of your heart.
How can you love yourself when you are so imperfect? How can you possibly grow when you fail so often? How can you expect miracles when you are so caught in mundane worldly habits?
Begin by letting go of those questions, those judgments, those ideas of self. You are whole and perfect as you are. You are where you are right now, and that is perfect.
Let your mind be still, your inner critic quiet for just a moment as you reach for something new. Let your mind relax into not doing. Let your heart open and your innocence ask for guidance. In your innocence you are perfect.
In this state of perfect innocence allow your breath to be easy and natural. Let it just do its magic. See how magical you are? Your breath shows you this. Where does it come from and how does it keep on flowing? That is the magic of you.
Allow your eyes to soften their gaze, your muscles to relax, your thoughts to cease. Just be with each calm and slow breath, with each beat of your heart, with each soft puff of air as it enters and leaves your nostrils. Let yourself sit quietly with the calm and perfect self that you are in this moment. Nothing else matters.
As you sit with your perfect self, begin to allow a new idea to enter your mind: I am perfect. I am perfect. I am perfect.
Each day you are the perfect person to live the life you are in, the perfect self for the day. There is no need to be anyone else. Just be yourself. As you wake up each morning state your intention: I am perfect today as I am.
Allow your body, your mind, your spirit to be in the flow of the day as it comes, whatever comes. Without struggle address what comes up, because that is what is perfect for the day. There is no need to resist, to fight or to be angry. Just be with what is. This is the day I am granted and it is perfect.
Let your perfect day be fulfilled in the most perfect way. Accept it with open arms and heart: it is the perfect day for what needs to be done and for what I need to learn. Today is perfect.
Notice how calm you become as you ponder taking this attitude to each day. Come what may, I am okay! Come what may, I am okay!
May you be calm. May you be safe. May you be peaceful. May you be happy.
