Positivity Pause - #WonderfulWednesday - SET the ATMOSPHERE!

It’s #WonderfulWednesday and time for a #PositivityPause 🕊

TAKE a moment to inhale for a count of 3, hold for a count of 3, exhale for a count of 3🧘🏽‍♀🧘🏼‍♂🧘🏾

SET the ATMOSPHERE!

Part of my SelfCare practice is to anchor myself spiritually every morning. It sets me up for success and SETS my INTERNAL ATMOSPHERE.As I headed to the OR at 6.45 today, I dialed into my daily Prayerline, and after I saw my patient in preop, I tuned into the 7.45 morning blessing .

🎵🎸One of the ways that I SET the ATMOSPHERE in my OR is I will play the Michael Jackson pandora station on my Boze speaker. The music from the artists in that era is timeless and it puts everyone in a good mood🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽

🔈🔊As I entered the Operating Room and turn on the Boze speaker, it connected to my morning prayer blessings playing softly on my phone.🙏🏾🙏🏾 My initial response was to hasten to turn it off lest I somehow violate some hospital policy, but I noticed the laser tech drawing close to the speaker and he said he was appreciating the blessing😇🙏🏾 Similarly, the nurse started uttering words of praise , so I turned the volume up so everyone could hear🙌🏾👂🏾🦻

👼🏾There was a perceptible shift in the room after the blessing. Everyone vocalized how powerful it was to start with prayer. There was a peace, light and a feeling of wonderful connection as we began our healing assignment. 🩺🥼😷The ATMOSPHERE was blessed, the team was blessed and as a result the patients were blessed and all did well🙌🏾👼🏾♥

⏸Take a Positivity Pause and set your internal atmosphere. Hum a song, meditate on something you are grateful for or say a prayer. Once you set YOU, God meets you wherever you are and helps you to set the external atmosphere! If you are in an unsettled environment, Speak Life, Declare Peace and Trust that God will work on your behalf to make you an agent of peace and calm 💙😇
