Breathing in Gratitude
Negativity bias happens to all of us, it is how our brain is wired. It is the main reason why it can be so difficult to think of any good when we are going through hard or uncertain times. However, we can counteract negativity bias by bringing to mind something that makes us smile and thus, something that we are grateful for. In this wonderful meditation, Jiva has us do just that by breathing in something we are grateful for.
Sitting in an upright position, I became aware of my breath. Simply noticing the rising and falling of my chest, I became grateful for the higher intelligence that guides my body to breath on its own. Bringing my animals to mind, I began breathing in gratitude for their unconditional love, for the gentle nudge of my cat’s paw I feel on my face and even the startling whining and occasional bark I hear from my dog each morning. Bringing my mom to my mind, I began breathing in gratitude for her loving and caring nature. Bringing my surroundings to my mind, I began breathing in gratitude for the birds I heard and for feeling the sun’s warmth on my skin. After bringing to mind a few of the blessings I have, I am filled with a glowing light.
Taking a few moments to see the good in each day, we
begin to feel better. When we feel better, we raise our vibrational frequencies. When we raise our vibrational frequencies, we see even more good in our lives. This domino effect creates miraculous things to occur in our lives. Breath in gratitude each and every day and begin to see it for yourself! Namaste 🙏🏻❤️☮️
