 Hello and welcome to day 88 of the Mindfulness Challenge. My name is Julian Jenkins, welcome to day 88, all the eights, 88. Over the last couple of days we've been building out and doing different pins and pieces and last yesterday was healing through sleep. Healing is quite a very interesting topic for me and I'm very much about how we can heal ourselves and heal others as well of course. But mindfulness is a lot about us being able to sit and be humble and all of these things. And one of the things I want to talk about is today I've released that I've had 35,000 views of my YouTube channel, 10,000 students enrolling in 18,000 courses in 121 different countries in 32 languages. I just, and it's amazing. But people say, God, that's really good and how do you do it? And it's like meditation and today we're going to talk about consistency. We're going to talk about being consistent with our content, with our disciplines. So if anybody believes that they're going to come into mindfulness or come into working with spirit or come into creating a YouTube channel and I'm going to say two plus two is six, six and 12, if you wear a green hat it's all done, it's not going to happen. It's about consistency, it's about discipline, it's about belief, it's about the highs and the lows. You know, I've done a post today talking about little by little. And in many ways it's like mindfulness, it's breath by breath. You know, everything that you see here in front of you and behind me is all being built and designed and everything, even my, I can spin around a little bit, my logo on the wall, be love and give love, it's all been done in the mind of me moving forward. But I didn't do all of this in one day, I did this little by little, I've been doing this for two years, I organically grown it. And as I said behind, you know, what I think looks nice and featured and you know, gives me that feel that I want to create and the energy importantly that I want to create, there's scars, there's tears, there's ups, there's downs, there's worries, there's commitment, it's huge to get to this point, to be able to create a video like this. And why am I telling you this? I'm telling you because like mindfulness, like success in life, it's about turning up. It's about turning up day after day after day after day and working towards manifest in what your true soul's goal and soul's purpose is. You know, well on day 88, I committed to 14 days, but could see the impact it was having and then committed to 100. I'm 12 away, my maths is 12 away, but I could stop, then I didn't. And you know what, some videos have had very few views, some videos have had lots of views. It's not about that, it's about the one person that comes on on views, each one, reach one. I'm doing this for you. And if anybody else watches, great, but I'm doing it for you because I want you to understand that consistency, playing the long game, turning up, even when things are hard, testing your values, even when things are hard. And people say it's easy for you. You know, you've got 10,000 people. I started with naught, I started with zero. I started this journey two years ago, you know, online journey two years ago. And I'm here today and I'm so grateful and thankful to everybody who's watching this video because without you, this wouldn't be possible. But without your care and your consideration and your love and your comments and your reviews and all of these things, it really does make this worthwhile for me. And I love the fact that we're on day 88 and I love the fact you're watching this video now, but this mindfulness video is talking about consistency of vision, consistency of manifestation, consistency of little by little. Every day do something that allows you to get to where you want to get to. The question is, how do you get there? So what we're going to do today is we're going to do a very, not very long, but very powerful meditation about your soul's purpose, your soul's goal. Who are you? What are you here for? What are you trying to achieve? What are you trying to manifest? So we know about things like oxytocin, neuroplasticity. We've talked about the sciences of mindfulness. We've talked about the things that happen in your mind and how your body works and talking about taking negative stuff on has a massive impact on our sympathetic system. Parasympathetic, I can never say it, parasympathetic. So it's when we open that up, that's where we heal. All of these things, it's about turning up. It's about being consistent. It's about coming on this camera, not feeling very well. Go and watch back the first days and worried in all of these things. And today, day 88, I hope you can see it's a Monday and my energy is flying. It might not be tomorrow, but it is today and I accept it and I love it for the moment that I've got. I'm making a difference today. Don't worry about tomorrow. Can fact yesterday, I'm here today. Little by little, breath by breath, moment by moment, second by second. Just build those very small blocks of foundation for you to move forward. And when you get knocked down, get back up. And the beauty of getting knocked down, you see who picks you up. It's beautiful. So we're going to do a mindfulness meditation looking at our soul's goal. So I'm going to put a picture up, close your eyes, get comfortable. As you always do, just take a deep breath in. Hold it for two seconds and let it go. Now I just want you to bring your awareness again like we always do to make sure we're completely grounded and relaxed. So just take a deep breath in and as you breathe out, just breathe out calm. Breathe in relaxation, breathe out calm, breathe in relaxation, breathe out calm. Now what I'd like you to do is just bring your awareness to your right foot. And when you breathe out, breathe out, breathe out, breathe out, breathe out. And when you bring your awareness to your right foot, what arises? What do you feel? What are the sensations? And just be with that for a moment. Just breathe through your right foot. Bring an awareness to anything that's arising. And then if you want, bring an awareness to your left foot and just, again, see what's arising there and see what the feelings are as you're breathing through your left foot. And just take your time and just focus on your breath. Just breathing in and out and bringing your awareness to your left foot. Now when you bring your awareness to your heart, just focus on your heart and just say to yourself as you breathe in, focusing on as you breathe out, open in your heart. Focusing on, open in your heart. Just follow your natural breathing, focusing on, open in your heart. Focusing on, open in your heart. You just start to feel your heart just open. You feel the energy building. You're just focusing on opening your heart. And in doing so, you're giving love to yourself but you're also giving love and attention to your soul. And I want you just to bring awareness in your mind that you stood in front of this beautiful full-length mirror. And as you look in the mirror, you see yourself and you understand that all of the experiences that you had, all of the hurts, all of the pleasure, all of the ups, all of the downs, all of the ins and the outs are stood in front of you. They are the lines, they are the sometimes hurt and sometimes happiness. And I want you to look at yourself in the mirror and just be very, bring to mind and look at it and be very vivid in how you look and what you see. And I want you to say to that person in the mirror, thank you, I truly love you and I love everything that you've done for me and I know that I'm on this spiritual journey together with you and me. Mind, body and soul. And as you look at yourself in this mirror you may feel emotions arising, that's fine. Just let them up and witness them and don't attach to them and just let them go. You may feel happiness rising and again, let them come up and just witness them and let them go. But now I'd like you to ask yourself, ask your soul as you've opened your heart and you look at yourself in this mirror. What is my purpose in life? Ask yourself that question now. What is my purpose in life? And see your soul answer you through the mirror. Then ask the question, who am I truly? Who am I truly? And the final question, how am I going to get to where I need to go? How am I going to get to where I need to go? I just wanted to look in the mirror again and just say, I love you and I know that you love me. Thank you for being with me today. And just bring your awareness back to your heart and allow those chambers of love to fill with divine light and spirit, giving you a beautiful warm glow and feeling all over your body. And when you're ready, just slowly open your eyes, wiggle your fingers and come back into the room. Set is short, it's quite powerful. You may have got something right at the beginning, you may have had nothing, you may sense something, you might see something, you might feel something. Again, this isn't like just do that and be fine. Do this over a period of time. Build out that meditation. Allow yourself to cultivate and go deeper. But find your true soul's purpose. Be true to yourself. But realize that it's a long game. Everything that we do here is a long game. Mindfulness, if I could teach mindfulness and everything, we'd have mindfulness challenge day one, wouldn't we? We wouldn't have mindfulness challenge day 88 because we'd have completed it day one. Lesson one, complete. Mindfulness, complete. Life, complete. Doesn't work that way, does it? I hope you've enjoyed day 88 of the mindfulness challenge. Put your hand on your heart and say, good afternoon, good morning, good evening. Julian, I love you. Julian, I love you. And just realize that, you know, I started with zero and I'm in it for the long game. I'm in it to help people, to help themselves live a happy, balanced spiritual life with clarity and purpose. And with all of those numbers that I talked about at the beginning, I'm humble enough to know that I'm still a student and I'm staying a student because I want to learn every single day and I learn from you and I learn from others. Should have learned from my computer one thing I'll do tomorrow. Have a lovely day on day 88. God bless. Be love and give love. Take care. Bye-bye.
