Week 12, Day 3: Broaden Your Horizons Meditation
“Expand your horizons. Move beyond the normal and mediocre to the extraordinary. Be daring. Ride the waves of life with enthusiasm, passion, and freedom in your heart. Open your arms wide and receive the opportunities that life is presenting you. Be lighthearted. You have much to offer the world. You deserve the very best. Your destiny awaits you; skip towards it.”
Find a comfortable seat. Feel your sitting bones release into the floor.
As you begin to deepen your breath, begin to bring your attention to your heart center.
Scan your body for any areas of discomfort or tension.
Reconnect to your breath and heart center as you lengthen through the spine.
Imagine yourself expanding and lengthening with each breath.
Come back to the the inspirational quote and ask yourself – How can I expand my horizons? What actions can I take to move towards my destiny?
Stay here with this meditation for 10-15 minutes.
