Good morning. I'm Jennifer Cray, host of your morning Mantra.
Today's meditation invites us to rest in the beauty of
the present moment while gently holding space for growth. Your
morning Mantra, everything is perfect and yet there is still

(00:36):
room for improvement. Let's begin. If it's safe to.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
Do so, close your eyes or lower your gaze. Relax
your eyes, relax your ears, relax your jaw, relax your
shoulders down, and bring your attention to your breath, drawing

(01:13):
your breath down into your heart space.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
This moment can be perfect the way that it is,
and we can acknowledge that it is also ever changing,
each moment flowing into the next, and as the moments pass,

(01:45):
we are evolving and learning. There is a gentle flow,
a balance between gratitude and growth, where we accept the
now and still feel inspired for what could be. We

(02:12):
honor both at the same time. We can appreciate this moment,
accepting that growth is a natural and beautiful progression. It's

(02:36):
okay to be happy and yet still strive. We can
rest and dream right now in this very moment. Things
are perfect as they are created by nature and universal law.

(03:08):
At the same time, This moment is not flawless, not finished,
It is ever changing and growing. Today's mantra everything is perfect,
and yet there is still room for improvement. Repeat to yourself,

(03:34):
either out loud or in your mind. Everything is perfect,
and yet there is still room for improvement. Bringing your
awareness back to your breath, breathing in and out of

(03:57):
your heart space. May be happy, May you be well,
May you be free from stress, worry, fear, and anxiety.

(04:18):
And may your whole life be truly blessed. Bringing your
awareness back to the space around you.
