HOW TO DO THE “MAY I BE LOVE” MEDITATION & WHY!

I learned from my longtime yoga practice how important mindfulness in the forms of Intention, Dedication & Sacredness can be for physical exercise & how it can ooze over & enrich our entire lives.  When yoga became less of my daily movement & I utilized different training types, I found myself missing these aspects that I loved.  I went back to my roots & brought these aspects of ritual back into my daily training.

 WHY IS MINDFULNESS IN TRAINING IMPORTANT?

1. We honor what our own bodies are saying
2. We reconnect to our individual needs
3. We create greater peace, calm, self.love, confidence & joy!

 This helps us to focus & redirect our attention & energy back to ourselves in a positive way instead of listening to any negative self-talk or what others may be saying we should be doing. Our sense of purpose for training takes on a new dimension when we focus on a specific intention that has roots in sacredness.  Just as yoga is a sacred practice, all movement can be too.  Consider what would change in our training, lives & races if instead of going through our workout “to get it done & over with” or “just going through the motions”, we listened to our body & breath so we could fine-tune our movement, get cues when to push harder vs. less, & turn the sweat session into a deep blessing?! How would things start to look different? This is what it can look like: LESS burn out, stress, pain, & overwhelm would become the new normal! Movement can help us get into alignment with what we want in our lives instead of being something that we “just do” because we have to.

HOW I USE THIS MEDITATION?

Self.love is the foundation of my training, life, racing & work with clients. I created this meditation as a way of adding Intention, Dedication, Sacredness, & Ritual into training. This is part of the Fierce Love Warrior Goddess Training process.  This meditation is done at the beginning of a workout to get grounded & aligned in Love! This creates a beautiful place to begin, no matter what follows.  Feel free to use this meditation at any time, day or night, whenever you’d like a reminder to get centered & UP THE LOVE!
