Ep.22 Meditation #11 set an intention for your day.

Unknown: 00:00:07

Hello, hello, this is the Borealis experience. I'm

Unknown: 00:00:11

your host Aurora. And today's meditation is for setting an

Unknown: 00:00:17

intention for your day.

Unknown: 00:00:22

Last night, I was

Unknown: 00:00:24

pretty much awake

Unknown: 00:00:26

the whole night. And I thought about how I was going to feel

Unknown: 00:00:32

exhausted and not capable of functioning 100% During the day

Unknown: 00:00:39

today, but then I thought,

Unknown: 00:00:42

What if I don't make it about that little bit of less sleep

Unknown: 00:00:46

that I'm getting tonight and still set a positive,

Unknown: 00:00:53

good intention for my day. And just try to stick to that as

Unknown: 00:00:58

much as I can. I'm not gonna let that little bit of insomnia

Unknown: 00:01:05

interfere with me having a good day.

Unknown: 00:01:12

So if you feel similar, or if you had a good day and want to

Unknown: 00:01:16

reset,

Unknown: 00:01:19

and have a good rest of your day, then please join me. Maybe

Unknown: 00:01:23

you had a wonderful sleep and just want to have a positive

Unknown: 00:01:27

start into the day. Or maybe you had a shitty sleep as well. And

Unknown: 00:01:31

then let's do this together. And let's not be a victim of

Unknown: 00:01:36

sleepless nights. Find a comfortable seat, maybe on a

Unknown: 00:01:41

cushion. A little bit elevated from the ground.

Unknown: 00:01:46

Adjust your pelvis for a straight spine without effort

Unknown: 00:01:51

and big muscle engagement. Tuck your chin a little bit. Close

Unknown: 00:01:57

your eyes. Roll your shoulders up and back

Unknown: 00:02:05

and sit here and stillness with me

Unknown: 00:02:16

tune into your breath

Unknown: 00:02:22

imagine how you're inhaling fresh mountain air

Unknown: 00:02:35

relax your eyes.

Unknown: 00:02:38

Relax the little muscles on your forehead,

Unknown: 00:02:42

around your mouth, around your ears, your jaw muscles.

Unknown: 00:03:20

Whatever comes up in your mind, just let it float away don't

Unknown: 00:03:24

cling to your thoughts. You're not your thoughts

Unknown: 00:03:36

you can observe your thoughts

Unknown: 00:03:41

and when we set an intention kind of takes space away from

Unknown: 00:03:47

irrelevant thoughts.

Unknown: 00:03:50

So set your intention now.

Unknown: 00:03:54

It can be peace, it can be resilience, it can be joy

Unknown: 00:04:10

whatever you feel is right for you today.

Unknown: 00:04:40

Know that it is in your power.

Unknown: 00:04:43

How you react in situations. You choose how to respond

Unknown: 00:04:56

you choose when to walk away

Unknown: 00:05:00

And you choose when it's worth it

Unknown: 00:05:03

to discuss

Unknown: 00:05:08

to align

Unknown: 00:05:11

to solve

Unknown: 00:05:14

but not every situation requires that

Unknown: 00:05:19

sometimes silence

Unknown: 00:05:22

walking away

Unknown: 00:05:25

is the best choice you can make

Unknown: 00:05:35

come back to your breath,

Unknown: 00:05:37

relax the muscles around your eyes

Unknown: 00:06:12

maybe your intention is to not be shaken out of this peaceful

Unknown: 00:06:17

state you feel right now.

Unknown: 00:06:20

Except if it is joy, excitement, happiness

Unknown: 00:06:27

you can be uplifted from the outside

Unknown: 00:06:31

but nothing can drag you down today

Unknown: 00:06:41

come back to your breath

Unknown: 00:07:33

bring your hands to your heart and pray position.

Unknown: 00:07:38

Bow your head down

Unknown: 00:07:50

make yourself a promise today

Unknown: 00:07:58

I don't even know if you say that like that in English.

Unknown: 00:08:02

To make a Promise, Promise yourself

Unknown: 00:08:07

that if anything triggers you,

Unknown: 00:08:10

your poison, your anger, your jealousy, your resentment will

Unknown: 00:08:15

come up

Unknown: 00:08:17

and you will not projected into the outer world

Unknown: 00:08:25

you will reflect about it you will feel those feelings and

Unknown: 00:08:30

that let go of them

Unknown: 00:08:33

and respond

Unknown: 00:08:35

like your best self would respond.

Unknown: 00:08:40

Once again.

Unknown: 00:08:43

If anything triggers you today brings up your poison, your

Unknown: 00:08:48

jealousy, resentment.

Unknown: 00:08:52

You will feel those feelings but you will not project it into

Unknown: 00:08:57

this outer world.

Unknown: 00:09:00

You will feel those feelings

Unknown: 00:09:03

metabolize them, channel them out and respond respond like

Unknown: 00:09:10

your wisest self would respond.

Unknown: 00:09:16

Namaste

Unknown: 00:09:28

thank you so much for

Unknown: 00:09:31

doing this meditation with me today.

Unknown: 00:09:35

I'm trying to

Unknown: 00:09:38

cover or to have a meditation ready for you for whichever mood

Unknown: 00:09:43

you're in. But today's meditation is really dear to me.

Unknown: 00:09:48

Because if we set an intention for the day, then we kind of

Unknown: 00:09:53

have that in the back of our mind for the whole day. And we

Unknown: 00:09:57

can always come back to that peaceful state

Unknown: 00:10:00

Out of Mind and being no matter what happens. I'm sending my

Unknown: 00:10:06

love out there. I'm very excited to have you on board here and

Unknown: 00:10:11

I'll send out a new meditation soon again. Bye bye
