Morning Invocation

Today, I do not fear turning inward.

Today, I do not fear turning inward.

In fact, I relish moments where I turn inward, where I breathe and slow down and feel, see, and experience who I am on the inside, moments where I let go of the external, for the internal.

Today, I'm not afraid of what I find on the inside, even if it's a hard day or an anxious day, I practice turning inward, in moments of pause to start my day, and to end my day in a moment of deep breath. I'm not afraid to look inside myself anymore.

I don't fear turning inward, turning towards my emotional state, my spiritual state, my mind's ebbs and flows, and ups and downs.

The things that used to scare me about my inner life no longer scare me; I don't fear turning inward.

Today, I honor and look forward to turning inward, taking a moment to pause, and taking inventory of what's happening inside of me. This is my compass; it helps me direct my life.

Today, I don't fear turning inward, in fact, I look forward to it.
