Sunshine

Vitamin N

The desert botanical garden talked about the importance of outside time for kids at their annual members meeting this year. Vitamin N is what we get from outside time. This reminds me of all the time I spent outside as a kid. From sun up to sun down we played outside.

Blues

District can be god or a vast window outside of the depth of Wonder only the present will know

Sunshine

I loved this imagery of sunshine and warmth. When I am cold or stressed, I tense up. So now, whenever I notice tension in my body I will try to internalize this idea of warm sunshine ☀️, especially with winter coming. Thanks, Lyndi

Sunshine☀️ Sunday ☀️Thank you☀️

Good Morning Everyone. Of course the Sun is not out. We get an hour more sleep that's a good thing if your home sleeping. I hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday. I'm always up early it's my normal routine. I have to do a few things around the house before the children get up. I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed this being a part of this Calm Respectful Caring Sharing Community on this App. I'm still new at this I like the idea that everybody is nice to one another and everybody gives good advice. It is really good when you don't know people and you write something and you get feedback good to have different opinions in different ways of thinking. Thank you all for being so Positive and Truthful to Me good or bad please always let you have it. I will check in later enjoy your morning.

Meditation 1

I have to block everything to really achieve a nice concentration

The sun is Beauty

I’m so grateful for the sunshine! Our energy changes. I feel calm and when you deep breathe my body warms up! I’m still warm from my Aura class. It’s rainy, now but I feel the rain washing and cleaning and the sunshine is with me! Enjoy your Beautiful Day! Keep the sun💡on you Sunday!

Warmth

I learned that warmth can travel across my entire body, chasing away negativity and all that drags me down.

Good morning

This was a great visual exercise! Feeling good!! Relaxing yet energized after the fact!

PCS

I learned through this act of taking some time to reflect on good sunny days that I am grateful for having had many chances to relax in the sunshine. I keep looking forward to adventures and stresses but it is nice to take a breath and reflect about sunny times

Relajada

Me doy cuenta del poder que tiene la meditación sobre mi estado emocional, me relajo a través de mi pensamiento.

Day 14

I know where my “happy place” is but it took me a minute to realize it.

Little things in life

I learned that I don’t take time to appreciate little things in life

Rays of sunshine

I enjoyed the idea of basking in the sunshine of a warm day. It was kind of hard since it is so cold today. The sunshine is so soothing to the soul.

Enjoy nature

All the wonderful things around us given by nature are free and we should enjoy and value it. Time off fm our busy lives is essential.

Sunshine meditation

Always sunny days are welcome on cloudy days, help us uplift our feelings of fear or sadness

Summertime

This meditation reminded me that I need to keep going in life so I can enjoy the times I have during summer with friends and family and feeling the warmth of the sun is like feeling the warmth of love from my friends and family.

Sunshine

Sometimes you have to pull away from the world mentally to recuperate.

Sunshine

The Sun is a reflection and reminder that we have an unlimited resource of abundant energy that is always available to renew, restore, & replenish. I am grateful for its presence!🙏🏼🌷

Sunshine

So good to visualise the warm sunshine all over my body. It made me feel so calm

This meditation put me in my perfect manifestation.

The sunshine is my best friend. Manifestation is at its greatest when sunshine is surrounding me.

Positivity

I learned that I am here and that I am relevant and that positivity comes from within

The sun is the source of all vitality and life

This meditation reminded me that the sun is the source of all life, and the relaxing, warm feeling that I got from simply imagining it helped rejuvenate me moving forward.

Sunshine is uplifting for me

This visualization couldn’t be more timely as I just got back from Florida and now it’s a cold snowy day here in Long Island. This sun visualization really helped put me in a better frame of mind. I love the sun, the warmth, and how good/energized my body feels. It lifts me out my depression and gives me a sense of well being.

Soak In

Let that negative mindset bounce off of you and let the warm positive thoughts soak in like sun rays.

☼ѕυиѕhιиє

Imagining myself with the sun hitting my body was amazing . I really felt all my sadness drift away and I felt good knowing I was in a happy ,warm , place . This helped me very much !

Warmth

I learned that reconnecting with warm of the sun feels comforting and reassuring - like hey I’m still up here shining. That’s what that warmth is to me: a hug from the universe.

Within you

Within you shelters your own bringing of light. It’s rays spread through your body and permeates your surroundings. The warmth of its presence can brighten the darkest day or melt the coldest moment. Don’t forget your sun and let it light those days.

Sunshine

Enjoy and relax in the suns warmth. Feel the warmth go through your body.

This sunshine

Over my body reminded of the goodness received by others, by something outside. Feelings of gratitude, of belonging, of reconciliation with the universe and this life, soften my chest, my limbs, my face, my gaze. Thank you.❤️

Sunshine

Learning to stay positive by finding little things that make you happy makes you feel good inside and lets you feel free from reality. This lesson makes me go back to summer day when I would go out in the field, sit in the grass and watch the sunset go down until it was gone. It was my absolute favorite thing to do in the summer. It always made me think about all the the things in life that needs to change for the better by thinking positive and realizing their own actions. It also brought me joy and peace, showed me how you should show more gratitude towards certain things and how to cope with the things I struggle with by thinking about ways to improve myself for the better and so far I have:)

Sunshine

Reminds me of the warmth of summer and the breeze of the ocean.

🌞Sunshine

You can live in the sunniest place on Earth but you still have to open up to let the sunshine on you. Remarkably memories from your mind can help to recreate similar feelings and sensations from previous times. Minus the sunburn hopefully.

Childhood

I thought of the happy carefree days of summer as a child in the country lying in the grass and it made me happy and a little misty for those peaceful summer days of so long ago.

Sun on my face

I love having sun on my face every day, it reminds me of G-D's love for his creation. It brings joy to my soul as does seeing friends.

Sunshine

Having the sun on my face makes me feel warm and light and have more of a peaceful mind.

Rooted Again

I can truly appreciate this meditation since it’s the dead of the winter right now! I miss the sunny warm days and what a great way to bring it back! I love thinking back on beach vacations and using the memories to re-ground myself to the Earth. It’s easy to feel separated from Earth and nature in the winter...this meditation helps to change that and re-root you to warmth and happiness again!HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!

Sunshine

This meditation is so nice because the feeling of sunshine is warm and peaceful and relaxing.

Positive Sun

The Sun has always meant two things to me. First the Sun brings warmth and comfort and therefore safety. However the second is that the sun brings fire and burning and therefore danger. Like life itself, the key is to be able to balance the warmth without being burnt. We are constantly balancing danger with safety and there is a certain comfort in that.

Visualization

I’m not a good at visualizing so this wasn’t the best one for me, but I followed through and listened to the entire exercise and felt ok afterwards.

Sunshine

It was so ironic that this just happened to be my meditation topic for today because it was raining all day long today in my town. From this lesson, I learned that I should take key times nd envision the sun in dark times. The sun is a vital source of life.

Feel good

Get up and shine naturally. No force, no tears, no sorrow and no pain. Everyday another chance to be happy with oneself. Dream focus sleep and Try again.

Sin límites

Todos tenemos exactamente el mismo tiempo. Lo que decidamos hacer con él es lo que nos acerca o aleja de lo que más nos importa. A veces por querer llevar el tiempo de otros, dejamos de apreciar lo que tenemos, olvidando nuestras raíces, planes y objetivos, además de apreciar lo poco o mucho que se nos atraviese. Es por eso que es necesario no nada más concentrarse en la razón sino en aquello que no pareciera del todo lógico, en aquello que no tiene límites naturales.

Much needed sunshine

It's supposed to be -10*F overnight with the wind chill well below that. My mustache froze while I shoveled 6" of snow from the walk tonight. My shoulders and back are tight from jumping up and down at a concert last night. Visualizing the warm, relaxing sunshine, lounging on the grass in an amphitheater by Lake Superior on a cloudless summer day was just what I needed right now.

Lesson 4

I learned that all it takes is a few deep breaths and visualization to be transported to a calming, peaceful, and warm place.

Daily

I try to stick my face in the sun and soak up the feeling. Even if through a window- it helps.

Warmth

Writing about happy thoughts & feelings was my goal for the day. This meditation helped me achieve the goal. Journaling on good days is just as important as journaling on hard days. If not, it looks like life is always hard, difficult, and frustrating.

The body is amazing

It really is amazing what the body can do. The ability to cultivate the feeling of warmth with just the mind really shows that you are the master of your own space. This meditation was also very enjoyable considering it's just over 20° where I live, so I appreciate the shared warmth!

Lindy is my favorite so far.

I’ve also learned I’ve increased my full focus to about a minute

Warmth

I learned that I need to get to somewhere warm asap because I was pretty sad returning to the frozen tundra I currently exist it. It was pleasant imagining myself on a beach in Florida for a little while, though.

Warmth

I learned that I can slow down to feel warmth inside of me. When I am sad or distraught, I can use the idea of sunshine to warm me up.

Day 26

This was a challenging meditation to do. I was not able to visualize the warmth so instead i focused on the breath

Soothing Sunday 1-28-17

This meditation is very relaxing. I pictured myself on the beach soaking up the sun. It was quiet and nice. Thank you, Lyndi. Have a nice day, Everyone! 😀

How much joy the sun’s warmth brings

And how much do we miss it in winter? Such bliss from this meditation today.

Sunshine

I can recapture the feeling of soaking up sunshine, feeling warmth permeate my skin on a chilly winter morning! I’m smiling and relaxed.

Sunny

I hope visualizing sunshine will help me stay warm as I stand outside in the cold and rain all day.

Needed warmth

This practice was perfectly timed. Today is cold, snowy and windy where I live. Feeling the warmth of the sun internally was very nice.

Be your own sunshine

You can determine the radiance that you have. Shine, even when your life seems cold

Sunny

Visualization exercises are always a bit of a challenge for me because I often imagine places I have been to before and then my mind wanders off to memories and past adventures. But this one felt different tonight! I entered feeling anxious and tired, now I’m left feeling more calm, still tired, but not as emotionally drained. The sunshine is within me already. If I can remember that when I feel anxious or tired or scared, I can calm my mind and return to my breath and heartbeat.

Sunshine.

Being still and soaking up the goodness around you can make you feel wonderful.

Calm

I learned that I can relax from many different meditations and calming music can help too

Reconnection

If you reconnect in the mornings using simple visualisation with positive connotations, it can have a large impact upon your day

The sun

You should be one with the sun ..................................

Jake

I am going to have to work hard to de stress from his constant demands, it is hard to breath this out of me.

Sunshine

Even if you aren’t happy you can put yourself in a happy place

Session 3

I learned to appreciate the little things in life, as if it were water, food, and of course, sunshine. Even when you’re cold let your feelings be hot and full of warmth and joy☀️

Sunshine

What a lovely start to my day. I imagined being in the light of the sun and then being in my saviors arms. Best beginning for me on this Valentine’s Day.

Be A Ray Of Sunshine ☀️

Even if the sun is not shining you can still feel it’s warmth

Shunshine

I am trying to get to a point where I feel like I at anytime I can just sit and imagine doing one of these meditations and really be able to get the same mental state.. emptying my mind and all of me is here and now.. This meditation got me to pause it and run outside where I could sit in the sunshine and feel everything lyndi was describing.. I loved it and she was very on point with the descriptions and I do believe that with a feeling as familiar at the sun on my skin.. I know I will be able to just close my eyes and imagine sitting there and soaking up the sun calmly and with a warm smile I know I feel each time I step into a sunlit space..🧘🏼‍♀️🌻☀️🕉💚

Nature

Through nature I am more connected with myself than I realized.

Pool day

Perfect way to start my day, considering I️m headed to the pool after this !

I can do what it takes to be successful

I will be just fine I can let things go I can make mistakes I can grow and change and be just fine

Relaxing sun visual

I used this before bed. It helped put me in a relaxed moon and helped quiet my mind. Lindie is really good.

Day 6

During this meditation I felt warm and safe. I learned that we should start our days off happy not sad and gloomy.

Calming

I felt calm and peaceful in this meditation even though I heard my brother playing in the background.

Sunshine

Especially nice to imagine myself resting in the sun. It is gloomy and cold here so this was very uplifting! Can’t wait for spring.

I felt relax and grateful

That You need to relax, and you need time for your self and commit to something.

Sunshine

I learned that taking deep breaths and visualizing helps calm the mind and body

Had trouble

I could not visualize the sun. Too much inner turmoils. All I could see at first was a large swarm of insects dancing & moving about a dark sky like a large flock of birds do. I was able to change the insects to pinpricks of light so it looked like the universe was dancing & swirling about, but still no sun.

Sunshine

I learned I need to open up a bit this mad me feel ok but not that great 👍

Rest

I love visualizations. This one is great because I love to lay in the sun and today is raining and cold so I look forward to the spring and sunshine.

Sunlight

I learned One method that can help me sleep better, to measure in the sunlight on my skin to make me warm and to make me tired.

Sunny

I feel very warm inside. I should sleep good tonight, I love being warm and when the sun is shining on me. Especially with the wind slightly blowing, it’s amazing.

relax

it made me feel like i was at the beach, i could imagine the warm sun on me, wind blowing, the soft but also rough waves crashing, and the seagulls singing. it made me feel really relaxed. i loved this a lot.

Amazing

This was so peaceful. It really helped me wake up. Definitely recommend

best feeling ever

it reminded me of florida, my favorite place on earth, and i couldnt get enough. i’ll definitely be able to fall asleep now, thank you so much. this was unbelievably helpful.

I’m happy when it’s sunny

I’m happy when it’s sunny And that when it’s sunny I have happy memories

Very relaxing

This meditation was extremely nice and relaxing. Great visualisations as well!

Love this

Amazing visualization meditation that feels your entire body and mind with warmth and joy.

Amazing

Amazing. So simple yet effective in really giving your body and mind the attention and warmth it deserves.

Sunshine

Wonderful meditation to do on a winters day. A bit challenging due to the coolness although. Resting in the sun is a meditation in and of itself. Happy New Years everyone!

Not a sun guy

I understand what Lyndi is attempting to do in this meditation, but as a red-head with an outdoor burn time of about five minutes? I try to avoid sun exposure at all costs! https://youtu.be/AP4KIrvfiJo

Sunshine

Remembering the warmth of the sunshine and how soothing that is to the soul. Great visualization for an extremely cold day in January.

Warming...

The perfect timing of Aura! I awoke to -5 degrees this morning and this was meditation was waiting for me. So I eagerly played it and felt the suns warmth all over my body thanks to Lindys suggestions. It was warming and energizing me! I was attracting & soaking it all up like a big sun magnet-battery so I could stay warm all day and maybe shine some on others that are so focused on the cold. I could see my arms turning golden bronze with beads of sweat just like I was lying on the beach. I especially like the warmth on my head and face...ahh! Thanks Aura for helping me stay warm thru this winter by focusing on the warmth of the Sunshine instead of the coldness of the Mercury! After all “Where Focus goes, Energy flows!” ❤️🌞🍀

Beautiful Sunshine

After a few days of feeling low and stressed, I am grateful to have come across this meditation. Visualizing the sun all over my body soothed, cleansed and lit up my soul. I will embrace this feeling and give it to others. So many others have far less than I do so I will focus on what I do have in my life and be grateful.

July 18- Night

I was able to depend on my mind to provide things I needed or longed for, as if I was in a blissful void rid of all physicality. The awareness of my conscious allowed myself to heal and warm and provide a stable environment. It taught me that we truly only depend on what we can provide ourselves in search of virtue.

Nice meditation.

It really feels relaxing and is much faster than the regular progressive relaxation I am used to.

Sunshine

I noticed that my mind wasn’t wandering like it has with other meditations. I was focused on feeling the sunshine on my body, and it was amazing.

Warmth 🌞

During this meditation I was visualizing sitting on the ground covered with leaves underneath a tree. I could feel the suns’s warmth on my face spreading throughout my body. Another great meditation to begin my day with. It helped wake me up and has left me with a pleasant feeling.🌞

Bathed in Sunshine

On a windy and colder day, I wanted to listen to a meditation where I could visualize warmth of the sunshine on my body. In this meditation, Lyndi gives us the warmth from the sun in a body scan type format, leaving us feeling refreshed. Visualizing the warmth of the sunshine on each part of my body, my muscles began to soften and relax. After a awhile, the warmth became so great that it began to penetrate through my skin and into my heart. With each heartbeat, this warmth began to flow throughout my entire body and eventually seep into my soul. Having my mind, body and soul being bathed in the warmth of this sunshine has left me with a sense of aliveness, a sense of peace and a heart full of gratitude!🌞

Soaking Up Sunshine

The sun ☀️ is shining bright here this morning which is what inspired me to listen to this session.It is another one of my favorites. I sat outside on our front steps feeling the rays of sunshine warming my face spreading this warmth throughout my whole body. This golden light is filling me up with renewed positive energy for the day. May your light from within shine bright today.Namaste.🙏☀️

I don’t get it 🤷🏻‍♀️

This was my 1st attempt at trying a meditation. Maybe I’m not doing it right, but I just feel silly?! My mind keeps racing about other things, so I wasn’t able to experience any benefit from this. 😞

Sun shines suneshine

Thinking of warmer days.. figuratively and literally, of course. I am reminded of Oahu.. listening to the waves crash against the ocean and basking in the sun's rays. Little did I know that things would be different months later. The sun shining but only beinf able to enjoy its presence from indoors. Spring -- my favorite season. How we take for granted life's moments of feeling free and unburdened. Thinking of warmer days.. where we were able to not only feel the embrace of the sun, but the embrace of our loved ones. Looking forward to when we will meet again in different circumstances.

Sunshine

I felt like I was literally on the beach and I learned that other people can be a little mean (like my school para)

Timeless Still

I imagined that I sat on a hill and basked in the Sun’s warm rays. I felt comforted and imagined, if only for a few moments, that I had no goals, no aspirations, no distractions, no worries. I sat in the moment, timeless, still. Following the meditation, I felt well-rested and awake, although I was previously tired. I felt calmer and more relaxed.

Beach

I imagined I was laying on the beach on my sun towel, absorbing the sun's warmth and forgetting all about everything else. Like I was on holiday.

Not my Jam

Current events have been stressful. It’s effecting me mentally for sure. Laying down on my back helped with some of the tension but this meditation didn’t do much for me. Maybe it’s my visualization skills but I found that it was hard to imagine warm sunshine. Or maybe it was the fan.

Warmth

I will have to try this one again when my ceiling fan isn't on.. It made it hard to feel warmth. Other than than I like the visualization, I was on my favorite beach in the sunshine ☀

Day one

I noticed that my mind slightly wandered, but the soothing voice brought me back easily. It was easy to feel warmth and visualize the sunshine on my body.

Sunshine

I did this meditation sitting on my cushion with the sun shining in on me. It was so nice to feel the sun as I moved through the visualization. My muscles melted!

I tried to picture myself in a meadow with the sun coming down.

My mind kept wandering though... imagining what it would be like to have my life partner beside me. I wonder if his spirit will ever be more of a happy thought than a sad one...

Sunshine

My mind likes to race and replay certain situations that I could’ve changed or done differently. It gets to the point where that’s all I think about. After listening to this track, I was able to recenter myself and feel the sunshine on my forehand.

Perfect end to the day.

I felt that this exercise really relaxed me after a really hard working day. I imagined myself on a beach with the sun shining down all over me. Lyndi always has a soothing voice which makes it more calming for me to listen to whilst doing the meditation exercises.

Reconnecting

I learned just how easy it is to be reminded of warmth, light and energy when reconnecting with thoughts of sunshine. A wonderful uplifting exercise.

calm and centered

a few minutes to focus on my mind and body when i’m stressed makes a huge diff

Sunshine Body

It was nice to imagine being greeted by the warm sun all over my body. Especially as we enter these colder winter months. I love the feeling of basking in the warm sunshine so this was a good one for me.

relaxing

i could really feel the warmth and tingling. i felt like all of my stress was melting away as i was lying next to a pool on vacation somewhere.

Transported

I felt transported back to a time as a child when I used to sit in the backyard on my back in the middle of a bright sunny summer afternoon with my eyes closed looking toward the sun and the warmth and comfort I felt over my entire body. I smiled.

Sunshine

I remembered my self sitting in the sun at yoga retreat. It e2as nice to revisit that day.

Centered

Great reminder to take time to meditation and breathe to reconnect myself.

Centered

Great reminder to take time to meditation and breathe to reconnect myself.

Remember Later

We unintentionally recall so many things during our day. I will try to intentionally recall sunshine. Namaste

Myself

I feel less and less anxiety everyday. It brings me relief and joy and happiness.

Sunshine

Thank you for this wonderful meditation. It was so soothing to feel the warm sunlight as you described it

Sunshine

For some reason i’m not resonating as much to sun immersion as the forest and plants. It may be connected to living In Florida where climate change has affected the average temps. into an unpleasant zone, at least for me. I left FL for the north.

First meditation

I learned that I am having a hard time with visualization I found it difficult to focus on the sun in any area beyond my head
