Take a deep breath,

and let yourself relax.

Breathe again,

and relax even more deeply.


PAUSE


Breathe deeply once more,

and as you do,

let your mind open

to new possibilities.


PAUSE


Now, imagine, if you can,

sitting on the edge of a dock

when a wrinkly, whiskered face

with soulful eyes

pops out of the water.


It’s a manatee.

a gray, billowy manatee.


PAUSE


And, while watching the manatee,

you become aware of its 

friendliness.

It seems like it smiles at you, 

and you smile back.


PAUSE


The manatee moves 

with a slow gracefulness.

It leads with its gentle spirit,

stopping and slowing 

for other fish, 

or to pop its head out again 

and say, “Hi” again to you.


PAUSE


Now, imagine if you can,

feeling a sense of connectedness

to the manatee.


Take a moment and feel

the creature’s gentle spirit,

its innate kindness and peace

in you.


Hold onto that feeling.


PAUSE


After a few moments,

the manatee submerges,

and then in a languid glide,

moves out to sea.


PAUSE


Yet, as the manatee swims off,

something of its spirit

stays with you.


In that moment,

you feel a change.


PAUSE


Now, draw in a deep breath,

and as you do,

feel the kindness and gentleness

of the manatee

settling in you.


Breathe again,

Allow yourself to

create an intention

based on the manatee’s spirit.


“I will embrace a life of kindness and gentleness.”


PAUSE


Let that intention sink into you

and be your guide for today

and all days that follow.


With that intention leading you,

greater peace and harmony will naturally

become part of your life.


NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
