Close your eyes
And open your mind.
Let your body sink into 
The chair or bed,
So you can unwind.

PAUSE

As your body relaxes,
Catch any thoughts 
You need to stash away.
Prepare to receive
On this beautiful day.

PAUSE

Life is full of fear
That causes anxiety and stress.
It can put you in a position
Of living in duress.

PAUSE

So, take a minute and breath,
And touch upon your fear.
Is it holding you back,
Try to observe it
And get clear.

PAUSE

Now, give your fear a voice,
Let it rumble and rant.
Then acknowledge it
And thank it,
And repeat that like a chant.

PAUSE

Keep yourself steady,
Let the fear burst into flames.
Watch it from a distance–
Take a step back from the pain.

PAUSE 

And through fear’s ashes,
See yourself rise.
Breathe. Embrace it.
Let yourself fly.

PAUSE

And while floating above the fear,
Listen gently to these words.
They’re probably something
You haven’t heard.

In The Way of the Peaceful Warrior 
These potent words are said:
“Courage is not the absence of fear
But the conquering of it.”

Take a moment, 
And breathe in this quote.
Take a moment
To really connect with
What Millman wrote.

PAUSE

For fear is state 
That exists in our mind.
It can be realistic,
But it can also make us blind.

PAUSE

And you are like the phoenix,
So spread your wings.
You’ll face fear again,
So prepare for conquering.

PAUSE

Now, hold that image
Of the fiery bird,
And remember, 
You got what it takes
To fly high in this world.

NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
