Good morning.
It's Wednesday, October twenty-first.
Hump day.
The week's tank might be running low.
It's darker when the alarm goes off now.
The sun is sleeping Your in.
body wants to do the So same.
let's check the gauge.
No judging.
Just On a look.
a scale from one to where's ten...
your energy right now?
Maybe it's a three.
Maybe it's a six and a half.
Whatever number showed up is fine.
It's just where we're starting.
Sit up so your belly has room.
Feet flat, if you can.
We have six minutes.
Let's turn the lights on inside.
This breath is a little quicker.
A short sniff in through the nose.
A full push out through the mouth.
We'll do a handful of rounds.
If you feel lightheaded...
just slow down.
No rush.
Ready?
Quick in...
and out.
In...
and out.
Keep that easy rhythm.
In...

Five more.

Feel your belly pumping.

Last one.
Big in...
and all the way out.
Now stop.
Let the breath do whatever it wants.
Notice your hands.
Your face.
Maybe a little tingle.
That's your body waking up.
Now picture the sun coming up.
Right above your head.
Warm and gold.
Like honey in a jar by the window.
Let it pour in.
Through the top of your head.
It fills your forehead first.
Your eyes feel less heavy.
It runs down into your jaw.
And the back of your neck.
Now it spills into your shoulders.
They were a little hunched.
Let them lift and open.
The gold keeps moving.
Down your arms.
Into your palms.
Your fingertips feel warm.
Maybe even a little buzzy.
It fills your chest.
Your ribs spread with it.
Down into your belly.
Your hips.
Down your legs...
like warm water filling a glass.
All the way to your feet.
Now you're full of it.
Head to toe.
Glowing a little.
Energy doesn't always come from coffee.
Sometimes it just needs air.
And a little attention.
You had some in there all along.
It was just waiting to be asked.
Say these to yourself.
With a little life in them.
I have enough energy for today.
I can refill when I run low.
Sit with that gentle buzz.
You don't need to do anything with it.
Just notice it.
In your hands.
In your chest.
Listen to the birds.
They've been up for hours.
They don't seem tired at all.
If your mind jumps to the inbox...
let it.
Then come back to the warm light.
Around two this afternoon...
the slump might show up.
That's The fine.

Check the gauge again.
One to ten.
Did the number move?
Even half a point counts.
That's energy you made yourself.
Take one big breath in...
And Here's out.

Then let your arms float down.
It takes ten seconds.
Your back will thank you.
So will the rest of your Open Wednesday.

Go have a bright day.
