The Legacy Within You

We each carry the light of those who came before us. Today’s mantra honours our ancestral gifts — the kindness, courage, and wisdom passed through generations — and asks how we will continue that legacy in our own lives.

Speaker 1 (00:05):
Approache production. Good morning, I'm Jennifer Cray, host of your
morning mantra. Today's meditation is an invitation to reflect on
the legacy that flows through us, from those who came

(00:29):
before to those who will follow. Your morning mantra, I
honor my legacy and the light I share. Let's begin,

(00:49):
if it's safe to 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

(01:10):
to your breath. Drawing your breath deep into the belly,
feeling the thread of life move through you with your breath.

(01:33):
The breath where past, present, and future are connected. We
carry the gifts of our ancestors, their strength, their stories,

(01:57):
their resilience. These hereditary blessings share our path. They live
within us. As we move through life, we too cast
light through kindness, words, and actions. We become part of

(02:31):
a legacy that will ripple beyond our time. What light
will you share today? What part of your story will

(02:53):
live beyond you? Today's mantra, I honor my legacy and
the light I share. Repeat to yourself, either out loud
or in your mind, I honor my legacy and the

(03:16):
light I share. Bringing your awareness back to your breath,
breathing in and out of your heart space. May you

(03:37):
be happy, may you be well, May you be free
from stress, worry, fear and anxiety, and may your whole
life be truly blessed. Bringing your awareness back to the

(04:00):
space around you and slowly opening your eyes to increase
self awareness and growth, I invite you to listen to
this evening's reflection. You can also deepen your practice with
