Mer video 7 : Count Your Blessings – A Soft Meditation on Living a Blessed Life

Begin by finding a quiet, comfortable space where you can relax and fully immerse yourself in this moment. Sit or lie down, ensuring that your body is supported in a way that feels most comfortable for you. Close your eyes gently, and take a deep, slow breath in. Fill your lungs completely with fresh, calming air. Hold it for a moment, then exhale slowly, letting go of any tension or stress in your body. With each breath, feel your body relax deeper and deeper, allowing your mind to quiet and become still.

Take a moment to notice how you feel in this moment. Are you carrying any stress, worry, or distractions from your day? Let them float away, like leaves on a stream. Your only focus now is the present. Allow yourself to be fully here, in this moment of deep peace. Let the breath guide you into a state of tranquility, calming every part of your being.

As you settle into this peaceful state, bring your awareness to your heart. Feel the gentle rhythm of your heartbeat, a constant and reliable presence in your life. This heartbeat is a reminder of the life force within you, the energy that sustains you, and the abundant blessings you have received. Each beat of your heart is a gift, a constant reminder of how blessed you truly are. Acknowledge this and let it fill your heart with a deep sense of gratitude.

Now, begin to reflect on the blessings in your life. Don’t rush through them. Take your time to truly feel the warmth of gratitude rise within you as you acknowledge each one. Start small, with the simple blessings that might often go unnoticed. These could be the warmth of the sun on your face, the sound of birds singing, or the feeling of a soft breeze against your skin. Even in the simplest moments, there is an abundance of blessings. Each of these little gifts is something to be thankful for, as they are reminders of the beauty and abundance that surrounds you.

Take a few moments to breathe deeply and reflect on the small, often-overlooked blessings in your life. As you do, feel the sense of appreciation growing in your heart. Let it grow like a flower blooming in the garden of your soul. Each breath in allows this gratitude to expand, and each exhale allows you to release any tension or worry you may be holding on to.

Now, shift your focus to the larger blessings in your life. Reflect on the people you love and who love you in return. Think of the relationships that bring you joy, comfort, and support. These people are treasures, and they are part of the abundant life you live. Whether they are family, friends, or loved ones, take a moment to send them gratitude. Visualize their faces, hear their laughter, and feel their love surround you. You are blessed to have these connections, and this love is a constant source of strength and joy.

Take a deep breath and let this feeling of gratitude for your loved ones fill your heart. Know that these relationships are gifts, and they bring depth, joy, and meaning to your life.

Now, turn your attention to your health. Acknowledge your body, your mind, and your spirit, and feel deep appreciation for the vitality and strength you possess. Whether you are in perfect health or on a healing journey, your body is a vessel of life. It carries you through each day, allowing you to experience the world, to create, to love, and to grow. Take a moment to honor your body, to thank it for the work it does every single day. Whether you are able to walk, breathe, see, or hear, each function is a precious gift that deserves gratitude.

With each breath, feel the love and appreciation for your body grow. Feel your body relax even further as you send love to every part of it. Thank it for its strength, for its resilience, and for the support it gives you each and every day.

Breathe in deeply, allowing the feeling of gratitude for your resources to fill your heart. Appreciate the abundance that flows to you in all forms – the material and the intangible. Know that you have everything you need to create even more abundance in your life. You are constantly supported by the universe, and there are endless opportunities available to you.

Take a few moments to truly see the abundance that surrounds you. Even in moments of struggle or hardship, there is always something to be grateful for. Reflect on the lessons learned and the growth that has come from difficult experiences. You are resilient, and these challenges have made you stronger. In every situation, there is an opportunity for gratitude, and with each moment, you grow more aligned with abundance.

Now, take a deep breath in, and as you do, visualize yourself surrounded by a warm, glowing light. This light represents the abundance of blessings in your life. It fills every corner of your being, wrapping you in peace, love, and gratitude. With each breath, feel this light expand, reaching out to all areas of your life, bringing even more blessings into your experience.

As you continue to breathe deeply, affirm to yourself:

I am grateful for the blessings in my life, both big and small.
I am open to receiving more abundance and love.
I am surrounded by a constant flow of blessings.
Every moment is an opportunity for gratitude.

Let these affirmations become your truth, as they work their way deep into your subconscious mind. You are grateful for all that you have, and you are open to receiving even more.

As we bring this meditation to a close, take a few moments to sit in stillness, allowing the gratitude to continue to expand within you. Feel the peace that comes from knowing you are blessed. Feel the joy of being alive, of being connected to the abundance that flows through you. Know that you are always supported by the universe, and that every blessing, no matter how small, is part of the beautiful life you are living.

Remember, the more you focus on gratitude, the more blessings you will attract. You are a magnet for abundance, and your life is full of endless opportunities for growth, love, and prosperity. Stay connected to this feeling of gratitude, and watch as the blessings in your life continue to multiply.
