Breathe from you center

and, while breathing,

Let a smile cross your face,

and a sense of ease 

flow through you.

PAUSE

Now, breathe some more,

and relax as well.

Turn your attention inward,

where greater calm dwells.

PAUSE

As you think about your day,

and all you have to do,

this may cause some stress

and anxiety, too.

PAUSE

So, move your focus

back to your smile,

Stay with it,

For a little while.

PAUSE

Observe how your stress,

Begins to ease,

When you’re engaged in a smile,

Your anxiety flees.

PAUSE

It’s not only smiles,

That chase away stress,

A sense of humor and laughter

can make it much less.

PAUSE

So, imagine yourself laughing,

When the stress is tough,

Handling it with grace,

Instead of giving up.

PAUSE

Now, crack a joke,

Any kind will work,

Anything to shift your mind,

And to put the stress in reverse.

PAUSE 

And while you’re laughing,

Notice light all around.

Laughter is pure energy,

That spreads and compounds.

PAUSE

Stay with the laughter and light,

Let them sink into your being,

It’s good for mind, body, and spirit–

Your total wellbeing.

PAUSE

Hold this smiling space

all through your day.

If you do,

No stress will get in your way.

PAUSE

So, when your world gets tough,

And you want the stress to pass,

Put a smile on your face,

And see if you can laugh.

NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
