Rituals for a Calm Spirit by Renee Starr

SACRED MORNING RITUAL FOR A CALM SPIRIT

• When you wake; stand up to face/greet the sun – even if there are clouds covering the sun, face your body in its direction. Close your eyes, breathe in the sunlight and ask for today to be filled with light, with peacefulness, and with calmness. Give thanks for this.
• Before you start your morning routine; place your hands upon your heart, breathe in, breathe out, feel your heartbeat, and imagine a bright white light from Spirit shining powerfully into your heart and as your blood circulates through your heart, it is being bathed by this light, so that as it circulates throughout your body, your body is cleansed, renewed and strengthened. Give thanks for this.
• As you begin your day, allow for whatever emotions are present, to be present. Do not suppress or push them away, simply allow them to unfold all day long until you find yourself on the other side of them. Give thanks for this.

Sacred sun, sacred day, I breathe in your light, and I breathe in peacefulness, calmness into my whole being. I am grateful. I am filled with light. I am calm. ~ Renee Starr

• Greet the moon. Before you sleep; stand up to face/greet the moon – even if is a dark moon, face your body in the direction of the moon. Close your eyes, breathe in the moonlight and ask for dreams of insight, healing, and peace. Give thanks for this.
• Just before you close your eyes, place your hands upon your heart, breathe in, breathe out, feel your heartbeat, and imagine a soft blue light from Spirit shining gently into your heart and as your blood circulates through your heart, it is being bathed by this light, so that as it circulates throughout your body, your body is soothed, calmed and relaxed. Give thanks for this.
• As you fall asleep, allow for whatever emotions are present, to be present. Do not suppress or push them away, simply allow them to unfold until you fall asleep, knowing that when you wake, it is a new day, and you may find yourself on the other side of them. Give thanks for this.

Sacred moon, sacred night, I ask for dreams of insight, healing and peace. I ask for my body to be soothed, calmed and relaxed. I am grateful. I am filled with peace. I am calm. ~ Renee Starr
