Ending Your Day 

Day 31 of 365  

Ending the First Month of Empowerment 365!
It has been one month since we started this journey together. Each night we have practiced and developed gratitude, forgiveness, humility, quiet relaxation and visualization. It is my sincere wish that each of YOU will receive a benefit, growth and personal development from each of the Empowerment activities. Now that we have established a foundation, the next step is the proper utilization of the Empowerment Tools. Please remember that effort, focus and commitment are the keys to success with the Empowerment. I encourage YOU to continue to practice and develop The Tools of Empowerment on a regular and consistent basis. Lastly, I would like to thank YOU for all of your support, encouraging words, comments and for allowing me to share what is in my heart with YOU each night. I wish each of YOU joy, peace, love and happiness each day, everyday one day at a time.

Quiet Reflection
End your day with quiet reflection. Take this time to relax, release, unwind and reflect on your day. Begin your quiet reflection with thoughts of gratitude and appreciation. 
Next, focus your thoughts on forgivness and humility. Forgive yourself and others for all negative or hurtful events of the past. Breathe deeply and allow the thoughts and feelings of forgiveness to flow through your mind and body.  

Take A Few Moments
Take a few moments to just relax. Take slow, deep breaths... Slowly begin to calm yourself and relax. Breathe slowly and begin to mentally, relax your forehead...., your neck....., shoulders...., arms...., elbows.... and your fingers.  
Slowly, relax your chest...., back.... and your abdomen. Relax your legs...., thighs...., calves...., ankles...., feet.... and your toes. Sit quietly and mentally feel the calming feeling of peacefulness and tranquility. Once YOU are relaxed, begin to mentally and emotionally release the events of your day. Begin to feel gratitude and appreciation, take slow, deep breaths and become thankful for your life and health. YOU can create balance in your life by practicing mentally and emotionally releasing the past and living fully in the present.

Visualization 
Visualize yourself sitting completely peaceful and relaxed in a beautiful garden. Look around your garden. Visualize and see the beautiful green grass, the beautiful flowers, the beautiful trees and feel the warmth of the sun, shining gently down upon you. Enjoy the silence, love, joy and peace that exists within your garden. Relax your mind and allow the feeling of peacefulness to move throughout your body (from the top of your head to the bottoms of your feet). Close your eyes and slowly repeat "I am  peaceful." As YOU are feeling the feelings of peaceful relaxation, breathe long, slow, deep, breaths. Practice this relaxation technique for a few moments prior to bed each night.

After completing your quiet reflection, review your goals, take a deep breath, turn off the TV and rest...... Peacefully.....
