Observe your breath. Is it fast and shallow or slow and heavy?  Slowly breathe in for the count of 5, hold for 5 counts and exhale for 5 counts and hold.  Do this 5 times.  Are you feeling more centered?  Continue to breathe slowly, bring the image of a loved one into your mind and observe their face through your mind’s eye.  Follow the contours of their face, the color of their eyes, and the shade of their hair. Keep them in your mind as you bring a smile to your face and wish them the following.

May you be Happy!

May you be Healthy!

May you be Safe!

May your life be filled with joy!

Check in with yourself, how are you feeling? My wish is that you feel calm, centered and compassionate.

Embrace the moment!
