“I Am a Divine Action of God, of Goddess.  Here and now. And I Am Good.”

 To get started, here’s what you’ll need: 

• A mirror. 

• Enough light to gaze into your own eyes. 

• A little bit of privacy. 

Even ten minutes is great. 20-25 is  ideal. 

 1. Stand or sit in front of a mirror and look deeply into your  own eyes. Gaze at them. One, then the other. Slightly in the  middle (third eye) that you can see both clearly. Relax your  body and just gaze into your eyes. 

If you have the privilege of privacy and can lay out some  candles and gaze in a looking glass, excellent! If you have only  ten minutes before you have to get the little ones to school,  that is perfect too. Be content with what you have and strive  to set aside more time to practice as you can.  

2. Gently focus on your breathing, and as you breathe in and  out, start to slow your breathing. Lengthen your breathing  for three counts in and then four counts out, four counts in,  and then five or six counts out. Soften your jaw, relax your  15 tongue, and release your shoulders down as you continue to  gaze into your eyes and breathe slow and easy.  

3. Continue to focus your attention entirely on your own  image.  As thoughts float in, allow them to float right on out. Don’t  worry; I’m sure they won’t go far. You can think about the  work you have to do or the dinner you need to make later.  For now, focus on the point just between and above your eyes  so you can gently apply pressure to the pineal gland. Soften  your gaze a bit more and fall into the eternity that lies behind  those magnificent eyes of yours.  

4. Stay present and grounded by your own image. Breathe  with yourself for a long time like this.  

5. Soften your eyes a bit more and become very aware of  your heart. You can place a hand over your heart even. See if  you can feel your heartbeat through your body. Keep gazing  into your eyes and relax the tongue once more. Feel the big  feels here; feel love for yourself. Feel gratitude for yourself.  Feel gratitude for your life, whatever it looks like here and  now. If you can’t find those feelings, feel love for your puppy  or your kitten or whatever you adore and flood your body  with that emotion and gratitude.  

6. When you feel ready and are in a happy, elevated state,  recite the following aloud to yourself (if you can without  scaring people in the next room). Recite it a million times  ideally— three times minimum.  

“I Am a Divine Action of God(dess). Here and now. And I am Good.  I am Kind. I am Enough. I am healthy and vibrant and open to the  magic of the highest Love in my life. I am free.”

 7. When you are ready to complete this space, whisper thanks  to yourself. Maybe give yourself a little bow in the mirror.  You certainly deserve the honor. Whisper thanksgiving to the  Divinity that you presenced before you began. Give another  bow to This Beingness you called upon. Then start to come  back into your body.  Move your hands up your opposite arms and feel yourself  under your touch.

Note your grounding chord and give it a  warm thank you. Start to think about the things that make  you the happiest. Ignore the world, if you can, for another  20 minutes while you integrate this incredibly powerful and  phenomenally deep exercise. Dance. Laugh. Write about  dreams that make you happy in your journal. Whatever  brings you peace – enjoy it for a spell.  Need a quick pick-me-up after a particularly human day? Use  an abbreviated version of The Magic Mirror above as a quick  daily practice and certainly anytime you need to reconnect  with this Higher Power that you are real quick.  

When you aren’t near a mirror and want to engage your  Higher Self, flutter your eyes closed and gaze gently at your  third eye while you run through the practice. And if all you  can give it in any particular moment is just One breath, it is  perfect. Go for it. Every conscious breath counts.  magic breathwork Bring the breath deep into your body, grounding it in the  stomach and pushing the solar plexus. Relax your shoulders.  

Once you get the hang of this, your shoulders shouldn’t rise  with your breathing. The breath lives in the belly. Relax your jaw and tongue. Soften everything, and maybe  your body will bless you with a released sigh or a yawn. Not  only does the sigh feel incredible, but it signals that your body  has attuned the nervous system to the intent. 

You're slipping  into a more relaxed state that opens to higher awareness,  and your body and brain are starting to harmonize with the  breath and the spirit.  As you release the breath out, gently allow each breath out  to be twice as long as the breath in and start to—pause— between each. 

Eventually, focus your breath to breathe four beats in. Four  beats hold. Four beats out. Four beats hold. Then, as you go  deeper into your altered brainwaves, allow the exhalations to  18 last as long as you can comfortably. An example of what that  could look like…  Four counts in. Three counts hold. Six counts out. Three  counts hold.  Four counts in. Four counts hold. Seven counts out. Four  counts hold.  Six counts in. Five counts hold. Eight counts out. Five counts  hold.  Play with it a little bit. You are not trying to ‘hit a goal’ here.  You are learning to use the breath and letting the breath  move and work inside you consciously.  Go on and try it. I’ll hold.  Now soften your eyes, relax your shoulders some more, and  become aware of how you’re feeling at this moment. 

Notice  any tension in your physical body, and let’s soften and release  it deeper. Ground yourself deeply to the Earth and ground  yourself more in the present moment by pulling everything  you feel to the center of the body.  Take the tension and everything that doesn’t serve you and  gather it all up to move it up the center; up, up, up, and out  the top of your head, releasing it to fall behind you, like a  flowy bridal veil back to the Earth. 

Release it to the beautiful  ground full of rich, lush grass. Now feel the Light and  Goodness of Source Energy as the brightest White Light and  19 release it from the center of your heart out to every cell in  your body. Drench yourself in white light.  

“I Am a Divine Action of God, of Goddess.  Here and now. And I am so Good. My life  is simple and easy, and I Am So Happy.”

Don’t worry if it feels a little like a lie. You might be going  through horrific  trauma right now  and aren’t feeling  it. Th e purpose  of this ritual is  to communicate  well beyond the  subconscious  programming  running the show.  Give it the direction that you want to go.  You’re telling your brain that even if you don’t feel it, you  acknowledge who you are and what you expect. It might take  some time to make this feel true, which is perfectly okay.  When you feel, you become. For now, you’re welcoming a  new sheriff to town.  

Here is your badge, my friend: 

As you bring this and any ritual to a close, always focus your  attention on things that make you happy and give gratitude.  Gently steer your thoughts to your goals and desires. Give the  drama of today’s news or the need to pay the bills at least 20  minutes on pause. Your subconscious is still listening. Feed it  healthy thoughts to integrate this priceless ritual and direct  the Universe to what it is you wish fo
