Picture it. You’re about to take that first step toward a big goal, or you have a meeting later today with your boss or a big client, or you are trying something kind of dauting that you’ve failed at before. Butterflies. Questioning whether you are good enough.
I’ve been there. We all have. And I’m grateful that I found what’s known as the Victory Meditation. While it does require you to sit still and go within for a few minutes, it lends itself perfectly for many situations where you can use a little internal pep talk. Sometimes I’ll even do it while waiting for my tea to brew in the morning.
Sitting in a chair or on the floor. Raise your right arm up as far as you can. Your palm is facing forward. Bring your left palm to your chest and relax your left elbow by your side. Breath in through your nose, hold it for a few seconds and then exhale through your nose. With your arm raised and continuing this breath pattern, silently repeat to yourself “victory.” Anytime you feel like lowering your arm, raise it a little higher and say to yourself “victory.”
In this video, we are practicing for three minutes. If you can’t hold your arm up the whole time, first celebrate that you even started, and second, give yourself kudos for the amount of time you did hold your arm up. And then try again another time. Just by trying, it’s a victory.
Please let me and others know about your experience in the comments. As always, am grateful if you pass along this video and/or let other know about my channel.
