Imagine the presence of a great warmth that feels utterly nurturing, good, and peaceful. See it as the most beautiful color or colors that you can imagine.
Notice your emotions.
insertsm Notice your thoughts.
Notice the energies of your physical body.
Try slightly adjusting the way that you are sitting and see if your energies move more freely in your body.
Go back now to your body.
Remember a happy feeling from the past, or imagine one now.
