I've just had the most stupendous morning shower meditation (mentioned above), so I thought I'd expand on it with you and encourage you to try it.

It began with 3 Openhand Bows, which you can see in this video here below if you don't know it...

And next to the shower - a few minutes of warm water first, and then preparing for the cold. Get yourself ready for it. First take yourself off to some beautiful landscape, you're about to stand under a wonderfully vibrant, icy cool waterfall. It'll be a bit of a shock to the system at first, but know that it's going to bring you alive far more than any morning coffee ever could!

So now switch to cold.

Feel deep into the body and begin to breathe deeply as the water flows over and around your body.

Wherever there's tightness, turn into it and soften. Keep relaxing and breathing deep into it.

Keep visualising the waterfall and how the vibrant energy is bringing you alive.

Make sure you direct the water to all parts of your body. Keep softening!

And when you're finished, just stand still in the shower. Breathe deep.

Now, take the index finger of each hand and wrap it around the eyes to the tear duct and gently push in. Life the eyebrows at the same time. This is an old Kriya yoga posture and it unleashes the most tremedous light effects - especially after the shower. Watch the lights morphing but all the while, feeling the rise of energy in your body.

When you get out of the shower, towel the body upwards not downwards, because that helps clear the endocrine system.

Now, finally, sing your favourite song as loudly as possible!

Voila. You're alive and awake. Ready for the day. Bring it on!
