The ABC’s of Actively Being Conscious – Day 17

The ABC’s of Actively Being Conscious Day 17

O is for Open

Here is a gentle yet effective 3-minute practice I’ve developed. In some ways, you could say it’s a prayer, but it’s more a full-body declaration, bordering on celebration! It can be quite enlivening if you really let yourself feel it, which I highly recommend you do.

You can use it whenever you’d like. Morning is perfect because it’s a beautiful way to celebrate each new day and open to its gifts.

It will open you to inspiration in all its forms that you might better express what you alone are uniquely qualified to bring into the world.

It will also connect your body and conscious awareness to the more expanded self that you are, and all that that implies. In practical terms, this means that it puts you more in tune with your intuition or your own inner guidance, and helps you notice things that you might not otherwise but that can be helpful — sometimes powerfully so — to you in your day to day life.

If you decide to try it out, do see how it resonates with you and do tweak it to fit you.

You will probably find that as you open to all the various gifts, you can’t help but be aware of and appreciate them immediately. This alone is uplifting never mind all the other good effects!

It’s an exquisite way to begin any day. Enjoy!

I Open

I open myself to the messages of my soul and the gifts of the universe.

I open my crown to receive Divine Light and High Guidance.

I open my mind to be attentive and to notice the messages of my soul and the gifts of the universe.

I open my eyes to see the messages of my soul and the gifts of the universe.

I open my ears to hear the messages of my soul and the gifts of the universe.

I open my nose to smell the messages of my soul and the gifts of the universe.

I open my mouth to taste the messages of my soul and the gifts of the universe.

I open my throat to speak the messages of my soul, the messages of my guides, and the gifts of the universe.

I open my heart to feel the messages of my soul and the gifts of the universe.

I open my solar plexus and the rest of my body to sense the messages of my soul and the gifts of the universe.

I open my pelvic bowl to empower the messages of my soul and the gifts of the universe

I open my arms to accept and embrace the messages of my soul and the gifts of the universe.

And I open my hands to give back to the world using the gifts I am so graciously given.

And so it is. Thank you. Amen. This prayer/declaration is available in audio form, too. You can listen to it online, or right-click here to download it.
