This is a quick post after an inspiring week with my clients.
Say these words and see how they affect you.
Allow your response to be what it is, without expectations.
Pause between each line for a breath or two.
Like dropping a stone into a pond and seeing the result.
May I be happy.
May I be healthy.
May I live with an open heart.
May I be safe and protected.
May you be happy.
May you be healthy.
May you live with an open heart.
May you be safe and protected.
May they be happy.
May they be healthy.
May they live with open hearts.
May they be safe and protected.
May we be happy.
May we be healthy.
May we live with open hearts.
May we be safe and protected.
This exercise can elicit great joy and expansion into compassion.
This exercise can show us where we feel neutral or numb.
It can quickly show us our blockages and pain.
When we are confronted by these experiences we have a chance to grow in our capacity to care for self and others.
