TODAY'S PAINTING-'SUNSHINE GIRL'- and a morning meditation----


Sunshine Girl----Acrylic on stretched canvas 24"x24"
This is a special painting that I like to keep, but I am happy to consider a commission for a similar theme if you would like to be in touch:-

This winter has been the worst Malta has known for nearly a hundred years,and it has been a difficult one.Early morning starts are not inspiring, especially when there is no promise of sun.
I find that a simple energising meditation helps to move me a little into action.

Sit comfortably in a quiet spot if possible. Close you eyes, and begin breathing slowly, rhythmically , deeply but gently. Feel your mind slowing down to this gentle rhythm, let it feel easy and relaxed. Your body too is becoming more relaxed, it is loosening out , feeling quite light, flexible and pliable. You no longer feel it heavy and weighing you down, it feels airy, buoyant and very very light.

 Breathe in very deeply now,-very deeply, very gently, very slowly.
You notice that the air around you is full of little particles of light, very beautiful, colourful, and shiny. You enjoy bathing in this warm, bright air, this light that is also very porous. Your body too is feeling porous, and is able to absorb this beautiful, colourful energy, You drink it into every little cell, through your pores, through your lungs, through your eyes, and you are feeling very very well, happy,and  very light.You are floating in this light, bathing in it, drinking it in, letting it circulate through your body, through your mind, through your whole being, feeling warm,  peaceful, very refreshed, very alive.

You realise that this is God's Life Force, His Spirit flowing through you, keeping you alive in this strong, gentle loving way. And as you breathe out you know that this beautiful, colourful, vibrant love energy is passing into the atmosphere around you, resonating, vibrating scintillating,- an amplified, strengthened supply for you to  feel fully alive,  to live and love with Him  and everyone you meet today.

I hope that this helps you to start your day well!
