 Hello Earth citizens! In this video I will do a 10 minute routine to start your New Year right. With the New Year we have lots of ambitions, lots of things we want to accomplish this year so let's practice sending energy to your intentions that you will manifest this year to start off the right to make sure you're on the right first step as we open up this new year. Alright so please first comfortably sit in a seated posture. If you can't sit in half lotus you can sit on a chair but I recommend trying to sit in half lotus posture. Straighten your spine. No slouching. Straighten your spine. Imagine you're pulling your spine up and feel your spine elongating from your tailbone all the way up to the top of your head. Close your eyes so you can focus on your body better and as you feel your spine elongating gently tuck your chin slightly inward. When you tuck your chin slightly inward you will feel the back of your neck stretching slightly. When your chin is pointed up like this your neck crunches but when your chin is pointed down your neck stretches. So point your chin down like this and now place your hands, stack your palms one at a time over your heart. Before we send energy to our intention we must first know what our intention is. And many times we think we know our intention but that intention comes from your head not from your heart. So in this routine we will first connect to the voice of your heart and set one intention from your heart to focus on. With your hands placed over your heart gently take a deep breath in through your nose all the way up to your abdomen and breathe out. Relax your whole body, your shoulders, neck, even your eyes. Relax your whole face and again take a deep breath into your whole body and sigh out. Last one now as you breathe in feel the rise and fall of your chest as you breathe in and one last time sigh out. Now keep your hands over your heart with your eyes closed from your heart space. Think of one sentence, one thing that you really want to achieve this year. It could be something about changing yourself, it could be accomplishing a goal. Anything is okay but something that comes from your heart not from your head. So feeling your heart connecting to your heart we call soul your true self connecting to your heart space. Think of one sentence from your heart that you want to achieve this year. Ask your heart what do I want to achieve this year? What do I want to achieve this year? What do I want to achieve this year? Keep asking earnestly as if you're desperately seeking for an answer from your heart space and when you desperately ask a small voice a soft gentle voice will say something. That voice might be so small that it's very easy to ignore thinking oh that that can't be right. That doesn't feel right but lean into that small voice you hear in your heart. It could be I want happiness. I want to change my negative thinking. I want to be healthier. I want to be more connected with my friends and family or it could even be I want to connect with my soul. Anything is okay from your heart. Now when you think of that one sentence just one don't overwhelm yourself with 10 or 20 or 30 just one sentence. When you think of that one sentence now imagine yourself with your mind's eye imagine yourself living out that life in front of you. If you wished for health in this new year imagine yourself living your life in a healthy way. Imagine the image in front of you with your eyes closed open your mind's eye and imagine that image in front of you. What do you look like? How's your facial expression? Where are you? What are you wearing? Imagine all the vivid details of you accomplishing that one sentence that you want for yourself in this new year. And now bring your palms in front of your body facing this image. Keep your eyes closed and imagine from your palms you send energy to the image of you accomplishing the thing that you want in this new year. As if your middle of your palms are shooting beams of light sending blessings love and gratitude sending pure energy to your intention focus on your palms and shoot out bright light into your vision. Relax your shoulders relax your arms focus on the middle of your palms and shoot bright pure energy from your palms into your intention. And now imagine yourself in your image receiving this bright light receiving your own blessing receiving your own love and as you exchange energy from your physical reality into your future image that exchange blesses each other you in the present blessing and loving your future you in your future blessing and loving yourself in the present. Continue to feel that energy exchange from your palms to your image palms to your image. And now make a gentle smile on your face to radiate positive happiness and blessings to yourself and what it is that you want to accomplish. And now with that bright smile bring your hands back onto your chest over your heart keep that bright smile on your face and to your own heart say thank you thank you so much for being with me today and thank you so much for being with me in my future. Feel the energy of gratitude in your hearts and now finally say to your heart with your own hearts voice I love you so much I love you my heart I love you my soul I love you I love you I love you and now if you felt the energy from your palms go into your heart gently sweep down your chest and breathe sweep down your arm relax your hands on your knees gently open your eyes how did you do could you visualize what it is you want to achieve next year please keep practicing this visualization meditation visualize what it is that you want and yourself achieving that goal and with that visualization keep sending energy from your palms to that image to manifest it in your reality you did a great job to experience a full one-hour brain education based class please visit a local body and brain yoga studio near you
