Let your thoughts drift away with today's visualization meditation, "Leaves on a Stream." This exercise uses cognitive defusion, in which we observe our thoughts from an outside perspective, rather than being one with our thoughts.

Don't let the title of today's Energy Elevator fool you! In today's episode, Rachael recites Chanie Gorkin's "Worst Day Ever" poem. When read in one direction, negativity and disgust is palpable! When read in the opposite direction, there is positivity, hope, and potential. Think about how your mindset and perspective influences your world. How does your attitude change your reality?

Rachael sits down with Leigh-Ann Larson, LMHC, founder and CEO of Elevate Counseling Services to discuss chakras.

This episode is only the introduction... the real magic happens when we start working with our chakras to foster healing.
Stay tuned for next week's Energy Elevator, where Leigh-Ann shares a chakra-balancing meditation!

Today's *grounding* meditation is very literal, as this meditation is to be done lying on the ground. Connect your body's energy with that of the earth. Gain healing, strength, and support from the ground; leave behind your anxiety, stress, and worry.

If only there was a short saying that could remind us what we can and cannot control... oh wait! In today's Energy Elevator, Rachael shares and deconstructs the Serenity Prayer. Although it is best known in the AA community, it can be used by anyone! It is a helpful reminder to control what we can, let go of the rest, and practice daily.

Always be perfect? No! Always do your BEST! Today's Energy Elevator covers the fourth agreements of Don Miguel Ruiz's The Four Agreements. This agreement envelopes the first three agreements, for as we practice speaking impeccably, not taking things personally, and not making assumptions, we must do it the best we can! Allow your "best" to fluctuate, as long as you always strive to do your best.
