The Inner Smile Meditation
The Meditation on our Inner Smile
- Find a quiet and comfortable place to sit or lie down. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths to relax.
- Start by bringing your awareness to your physical body. Scan from your toes to the top of your head, noticing any areas of tension or discomfort.
- As you inhale, imagine a warm and radiant light entering your body through your nose. Visualise this light spreading throughout your body, warming and soothing every muscle, organ, and cell.
- Now, bring your attention to your face. Imagine yourself smiling from the inside out. Let the smile spread across your face and into your eyes, filling your whole being with a warm and loving energy.
- Hold this inner smile for a few moments, feeling the joy and happiness that it brings. Let it permeate your whole body, dissolving any tension or stress that you may be carrying.
- Imagine this inner smile radiating out from your body, touching all those around you. Visualise everyone you meet being impacted positively by your smile, and feel the joy of spreading happiness to others.
- Take a few more deep breaths and when you are ready, slowly open your eyes. Take a moment to bask in the feeling of inner joy and peace that you have cultivated.
Repeat this meditation as often as you like to cultivate the sense of inner peace and happiness. This mindfulness exercise will always bring a smile to your heart.
