\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

First place your hand over your heart and speak out aloud from your heart.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

The present moment is a gift. It’s where my focus, energy and actions reside. The stuff outside of that I will now put to the side and come back to later if need be.<\/p>\n

Here, now, in the eternal present moment, I will live, I will be, I will engage with the world.<\/p>\n

With the divine presence that is within me, I will be both present and omnipresent in my interactions.<\/p>\n

\n

I cultivate the art of creating from alignment, honouring my heart, and inner truth, and acting from integrity from my deepest sense of truth, justice and love.<\/p>\n

\n

My life is synchronised and interconnected with both the earth and the cosmos. I am intimately related to all life, and honour the sacred life-force of all living beings.<\/p>\n

\n

I respect and honour nature and harmonise with her splendid and intricate ways. My role is to treasure, nurture and preserve our living planet, Gaia. I respect and honour all animals, tree and plant-life as sacred. I pray that I will be an instrument of love and healing for all inhabitants of Earth.<\/p>\n

\n

I honour myself as a sovereign creator being.<\/p>\n

\n

I honour and recognise myself as a manifestor, able to manifest my destiny.<\/p>\n

\n

I am grateful for all the blessings in my life. Gratitude is my natural rhythm and way. I am grateful for this opportunity of living, breathing and being.<\/p>\n

\n

I practise loving-kindness, forgiveness, and compassion to all people, even those that are my opposites, or adversaries. I recognise all as the divine face of God.<\/p>\n

\n

I welcome new ideas, innovations, insights, and opinions. I am open to other points of view. I respect all viewpoints as valid. I respect other voices and cultivate the skill of listening.<\/p>\n

\n

I seek liberty and justice for all of planet Earth. I pray for a world that serves and rewards all.<\/p>\n

\n

I am here to love and take care of myself. Even my shadow and imperfections do not need to be hidden or repressed. I release all that I have rejected about myself, and endeavour to cultivate a deep respect for my body, mind and soul.<\/p>\n

\n

In the words of St. Francis of Assisi, “Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.”<\/em><\/p>\n
