Center yourself,

gathering your awareness,

and bringing it inward.

PAUSE

Breathe.

Let each breath

deepen your awareness.

Let each breath

awaken your consciousness.

PAUSE

Now, pause for a moment,

and see if you can imagine

sitting on a pier.

The sun is shining.

You can feel its warmth

on your cheeks.

A gentle breeze 

tussles your hair.

And little waves

lap against the 

pillars of the pier.

PAUSE

Now, draw in a deep breath,

and imagine seeing a fisherman

near you.

You sit quietly

and observe

the fisherman.

PAUSE

As you watch him,

the first thing you notice

is his silence.

He sits serenely,

with an abundance of patience,

just waiting for a tug on his line.

There is peace 

in and around him.

PAUSE

You draw in a breath,

and let the peace

you see in the fisherman

settle in you.

PAUSE

Then, you notice his gaze.

It’s far off and meditative.

Like there’s something

well beyond his fishing line.

You look toward the horizon

where the sun and water meet.

A calm comes over you.

PAUSE

After a moment,

the fisherman rises.

He winds the reel smoothly.

It clicks continuously–

The only noise in the air–

until the line is completely in.

Then he hooks on the rod 

and packs up.

Then softly,

gingerly,

he leaves the dock.

PAUSE

Now, take a deep breath,

and bring your consciousness

back to the present,

And, as you do, 

bring the tranquility

of the fisherman

with you.

PAUSE

Hold onto the peace you feel.

Keep it with you 

throughout your day.

And know that if it begins to slip,

just breathe, and go back to the dock,

next to the fisherman.

And the beautiful peace

will return to you.

NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
