�Absolute attention is prayer.�
Simone Weil

O mother, who is present everywhere,
Who is embodiment of Universal Mother,
O mother, who is present everywhere,
Who is embodiment of Power and Energy,
O mother, who is present everywhere,
Who is embodiment of Peace,
I bow to thee, I bow to thee, I bow to thee.
Ancient Sandscript.
I am ready to live with joy.
I am ready to express the Vibrant spirit that resides within me. I fill myself with light,love, peace and joy and then glow from that centre outward,lighting my life and that of those around me.
I am a full expression of who I am, glowing for all to see, my talents made manifest, and my truth a bright light. I am love. I am joy expressed. I am.
Carrie Hart
MEDIATION: a quiet time to live in the pressence of our Sacred Beauty.
"See how nature -trees, flowers and grass -grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...we need silence to be able to touch souls."
Mother Teresa.
The Pause...
First let the mind be free of any concern or preoccupation
Be aware of where you are now�
Feel the weight of the body on the chair�
Feel the gentle pressure of the clothes on the skin and the play of air on the face and hands�
Become aware of colour and form...taste...smell...And let the listening be wide. Let all the sounds be held in the silent listening...
Rest in that awareness for a while.
I am a beautiful woman, with a beauty that doesn�t wash off
I earned it, unearthed it, and resecured it like a jewel in the dust.
My body is my home my home a shrine to life, comfortable, warm and rich with treasures. Mine is the scent of hot spices caught in a breeze, mine the laughter that wings through the door.
I search for my centre in the midst of chaos I practice peace as wild dogs clamour in my mind. I am learning how to persist and when to Let go, I am willing to feel all emotions to their depths and exaltations.
Both my beauty and strength transcend age, time and perhaps even this lifetime. Each day I am new, yet more at home in myself.
Moment-by-Moment I create my world.
