Breathe in slowly
My first step towards the house of my soul
Breathe out easily
My rambunctious mind knows where I am headed

Breathe in deeply
I'm starting to feel the warmth of the fire
Breathe out completely
I allow myself to softly observe what I'm thinking

Relax my shoulders
I'm beginning to forget that any boundaries exist
Loosen my jaw
I open my being and embrace who I am

Effort decreasing
I am now in the flow where I never get lost
Rewards increasing
I open the present of what I can be

Breathe in evenly
I swim in the rivers of thoughts non-existent
Breathe out gently
The hearth of my home now warms my whole being

Speak from my heart
I sit in a meadow and converse with my Creator
Patient and kind
I remind myself where my center exists

Leaving this prayer
My meditative love is now coming to a close
Arriving at life
Filled with the loving and real power of truth

Breathe in slowly
I'm thankful to chat with the Source of all good
Breathe out easily
I walk on my path listening for response through intuition
