If you are somebody, who wakes up with anxiety on some days and that some day is today, we are going to calm those nerves and make you feel safe and secure in your body. Don't worry, it won't be boring passive meditation, this is an active one where your mind will be focussed yet relaxed to get you ready for your day. Close your eyes now, allowing the outside world to fade. With your eyes closed, your mind no longer needs to process everything around you, and your body can begin to soften.The next couple of minutes, we are going to be with our breath. Inhale slowly through your nose…hold for a heartbeat… and exhale softly through your mouth.Feel how each breath carries a quiet message: While inhaling, your body feels energized and while exhaling there is this sense of warmth that makes you feel safe. If your mind drifts toward worries, that’s perfectly normal. Even when these are persistent, ruminating thoughts—about things beyond your control, like health or finances—trying to push them away often makes them return, sparking more anxiety. Instead, imagine these thoughts as visitors passing through. You don’t need to fight or push them away—simply acknowledge them.We warmed up the body with the breath. Now let’s give the mind a gentle warm-up too, by practicing where we place our attention. We are going to do a simple body scan now. Start with your forehead. Notice if you’re holding any tension there, and imagine it smoothening out. Like a wave in the ocean. Move to your jaw — Feel the whole jaw. Feel the outer muscles, Gum sockets, and let it loosen. Bring awareness to your shoulders. If they’re creeping up, let them drop down a little.Anxiety often shows up in these small places, like the body trying to stay on guard.With each exhale, give those spots permission to let go, even if just a little. Alright, now let’s spend the next couple of minutes building your happy place.We’ll use a little visualisation to give your mind somewhere calm to return to, anytime you need it.Let your mind wander to a scene that feels peaceful. Maybe it’s sunlight spilling through a window, warming your face. Or the ocean at dawn, with waves rolling in and out like a slow breath. Or maybe it’s the cool freshness of grass under your bare feet, the morning air carrying a quiet stillness.Take a moment to notice the details. The colors, the sounds, even the temperature in the air.Feel the warmth of light on your skin, the steadiness of the ground beneath you, the way your whole body softens in this space.Now, bring your worries into this picture — but not as heavy weights. See them as small, gentle clouds drifting across the sky above you. They appear, they float, and then they fade into the distance.You don’t need to chase them, you don’t need to hold them. Just let them move on. Watch them go, fading away...Notice what’s left behind: a wide, clear sky. This sky is like your deeper mind — steady, spacious, untouched by the passing of fears. A place you can always return to. Your mind is now a blank space.This is the perfect moment to plant seeds of affirmations—words that can give you strength and courage to live fully today. Place one hand on your chest and repeat after me:I am safe in this moment.My mind can rest.I will move through today one step at a time.Now, choose one gentle intention for your day. Something kind, not demanding. For example:“I will make space for anxiety today. Anxiety, I see you. You are welcome here.”Let this intention be your quiet companion as you move through the day, supporting you with calm and presence.Music Credits: Music of Wisdom
