- 1:26Speaker 3: really center ourselves in the powerful energy of gratitude.
- 1:33Speaker 1: Now, gently close your eyes if that feels safe, and
- 1:38Speaker 1: allow your body to settle in how deeply through your
- 1:42Speaker 1: nose and exhil slowly through your mouth.
- 1:52Speaker 3: Feel your shoulders softened and inhale again. Feel your lungs,
- 2:01Speaker 3: your heart, your belly, and exhale, letting go of any tension,
- 2:12Speaker 3: any worry, or anything that is not serving you right now.
- 2:18Speaker 1: Let's do one more big breath together. Inhale, you pause
- 2:28Speaker 1: and exhale.
- 2:32Speaker 3: Beautiful, Now bring your awareness to your body. Feel the
- 2:40Speaker 3: ground beneath you, strong, steady and supportive. You are held,
- 2:50Speaker 3: You are safe, You are here.
- 2:56Speaker 1: Let gratitude begin in your body. I want you to
- 3:00Speaker 1: thank your feet for every single step they've taken you
- 3:05Speaker 1: to get you to where you are right now.
- 3:10Speaker 3: Keep breathing and start to thank your legs and your
- 3:15Speaker 3: hips and your strong foundation for holding you upright in
- 3:20Speaker 3: this world. Can start to thank your hands, your arms
- 3:27Speaker 3: for all they've created, held and healed.
- 3:32Speaker 1: Ready to thank your heart for beating, for loving, for
- 3:38Speaker 1: being so resilient through all that you've been through. You
- 3:43Speaker 1: are a living, breathing miracle.
- 3:48Speaker 3: Now begin to call into your mind the things that
- 3:51Speaker 3: you are grateful for. Big or small picture the one
- 3:57Speaker 3: thing that brings you the most joy. Maybe it's the
- 4:01Speaker 3: sound of laughter, the warmth of sun on your skin,
- 4:07Speaker 3: or the embrace of someone who truly, truly sees you.
- 4:12Speaker 3: Really want you to hold that image in your heart.
- 4:16Speaker 1: As you're holding it, feel it expands. Now bring to
- 4:21Speaker 1: mind a woman in your life, could be a sister,
- 4:25Speaker 1: a friend, a mentor someone who's really lifted you up,
- 4:32Speaker 1: and feel the gratitude rise in your chest for her
- 4:36Speaker 1: presence in your life.
- 4:41Speaker 3: I want you to whisper the words thank you in
- 4:46Speaker 3: your heart so the gratitude that you have for this person,
- 4:52Speaker 3: allow it to feel that love expanding from your heart.
- 5:00Speaker 3: And now turn that love inward. Think of one thing
- 5:06Speaker 3: about yourself that you were grateful for.
- 5:10Speaker 1: Is it your strength? Is it your intuition, your kindness,
- 5:16Speaker 1: maybe your fire? Say it in your mind, I am
- 5:21Speaker 1: grateful for who I am, and let that truth echo
- 5:27Speaker 1: through you.
- 5:31Speaker 3: As you feel that gratitude for who you are today.
- 5:36Speaker 3: Let's speak some affirmations together. You can repeat them in
- 5:40Speaker 3: your mind or out loud if you feel called to.
- 5:47Speaker 1: I am enough exactly as I am. I honor the
- 5:54Speaker 1: woman I've been and the woman I'm becoming.
- 6:00Speaker 3: I radiate gratitude, power, and love. I trust the path
- 6:08Speaker 3: that I am on.
- 6:12Speaker 1: I am grounded in grace and rising in strength. Every
- 6:19Speaker 1: single day I grow more aligned with my truth.
- 6:26Speaker 3: I am grateful for this life and for the woman living.

- 6:39Speaker 1: right here, right now, I want you to slowly such
- 6:43Speaker 1: a weird your fingers and your toes.
- 6:49Speaker 3: And just take one more deep, nourishing breath in and
- 6:57Speaker 3: exhale gently, really let your shoulders sink all the way down,
