Gratitude for Warming Up


Listen Later

When I come upstairs after waking up each morning, the first thing I do is to turn up the heat to warm up the house. Then I do a little yoga to warm up my muscles and joints. The next step to my Daily GPS is to warm up to my Vision Board by generating some intense emotion to increase the vibration of the atoms and molecules to transform my vision into the physical reality I want to create. And finally, I sit down in the warmth of God’s embrace as I go to my daily scripture and connect through prayer.

I remember going to kindergarten and looking around at the other kids I would be spending the next 9 months with, the foreign symbols that were the alphabet above the blackboard and feeling a little overwhelmed at all the newness that surrounded me.

Every time we step into a new space, it takes a while to warm up to the unfamiliar surroundings.

When I was playing basketball and volleyball in High School, we did warm-ups (stretches and slow exercises to help our muscles lengthen and strengthen slowly to avoid injury). Just as vital, before we hit the showers, was to do something we called ‘warm-down’, to return the heart rate, breathing and muscle tension to normal rates.

It is just as important to celebrate and rest after a big push towards a goal, as it is to prepare for action. In fact, once I set a timer for 30 minutes and just did nothing! It was hard at first, but eventually I began to notice things I had never taken time for in the past. In the end, when the timer went off, I felt like I had been on vacation! I seriously felt as rested as if I had been away from my home and office for 2 weeks.
