A MOMENT TO YOURSELF: BREATHING: SELF-LOVE

Let‘s manifest some self-love, let‘s commit to ourselves, and especially create a comfort zone which we can always recall and run to when there is a lack of love and uncomfort disturbing your daily.

Sit down, or lay down comfortably. Close your eyes and take a deep breath in and exhale slowly. Relax and take your time, repeat this sort of slow breathing. Speak some self-loving words to yourself, use some sweet adjectives whic h describe you, even if you don‘t feel like being the biggest fan of yourself right now. Know that words have an impact and the way you talk to yourself matters.

I am loving, I am kind, I am full of ideas, I am strong, I am creative,..

Manifesting dreams? Well, you can use this also to manifest dreams, desires, and wishes for a new year or a new chapter. Speak it out loud in your mind and when done, keep these thoughts and emotions in an imaginary pink bubble. Quite romantic, right? Pink is the color that is associated with the heart and with this energy, your dreams and ideas about yourself are supported and translated into your real being.

Once the bubble is set, let it float. Watc h the pink bubble fly away from you… wave it good-bye and see how it leaves the universe: with your vision, your dreams, and your love to make tomorrow be the tomorrow you are dreaming of. The bubble is set free now and will only attract and gather the energy which helps manifesting your thoughts and wishes.

Manifesting a better relationship with yourself to be the best version you can be.

Let the universe work for you now.

In Buddhism, color goes much deeper than surface decoration—it symbolizes the state of mind. Buddhists believe that meditating on the individual colors and their essences is a way to achieve spiritual transformation. Blue, for example, symbolizes coolness and infinity. Oxymoronically, the emotion associated with blue is anger, but meditating on the color is believed to transform anger into wisdom. Red symbolizes blood, fire and the life force. It's associated with the notion of subjugation, but by meditating on the color, Buddhists believe the delusion of attachment can be transformed into the wisdom of discernment. The highest state of all is to attain "rainbow body," when mere matter is transformed into pure light. Just as the visible light spectrum contains all color, the rainbow signifies the awakening of the inner self to all possible ear thly knowledge before stepping over the threshold to the state of Nirvana.
