Releasing Renewal Meditation

This is a healing meditation,

A sacred space for you to release anything that is no longer serving you,

Weighing you down,

Making you feel heavy.

Please know that as we journey together that you are protected,

That you are held,

That you are seen,

And that you are worthy of this time.

Before we begin,

I ask that you begin to concentrate on the energy of gratitude and thank yourself for allowing this moment to occur,

For allowing yourself to drop in to the stillness within the present moment.

All of you is welcome here.

As you get comfortable,

I invite you to close your eyes and start to connect with the body,

Dropping into this moment,

Noticing any areas of tension or tightness,

And allow yourself to just become soft.

With each breath relaxing more and more,

Sinking into the support beneath you,

Becoming aware of all the points of contact of your body.

Noticing all the points of contact where your body meets the support with which you sit on.

And if there are any areas of tightness or tension,

Allow yourself to bring your breath to those places,

Drawing the oxygen in and allowing it to move into those areas and make space.

I invite you to become aware now of where you notice the breath the most.

Perhaps it's the rise and fall in the chest,

The expansion and contraction of the belly,

Perhaps it's the air on the nostrils moving in and out at the tip of the nose.

Wherever you connect the most with the breath,

Allow that to be your anchor in this moment.

To fully drop in now,

Fill your lungs with air,

A big deep breath in through the nose and exhaling out the mouth.

And once again,

Breathing into the nose.

And exhaling out the mouth.

Breathing a little more with each exhale.

And one more big breath in and exhale out.

And now allow your breath to move into its natural rhythm and cadence.

And allow yourself the opportunity in this moment to give thanks for this breath,

This time.

Allowing yourself to be here now.

As we connect more deeply with our breath,

Allowing all of the parts of you that have been tight or filled with tension,

Allow those places to release.

It's now in this time that we call in the four corners,

All of the elements.

North,

South,

East and west,

Sky above,

Earth below.

We call in these energies that surround us all the time.

And we ask that they anchor us in fully so that we may experience what it is truly like to be held in this moment.

Allowing us to see where we lie in relation to the earth and the cosmos.

Simply in between.

Spreading out in all directions around us.

Breathing so deeply with our physical,

Etheric,

Spiritual bodies in this moment.

As we connect to this place inside of us,

This stillness,

I want you to begin to visualize yourself looking down at your feet.

Imagine you are standing outside on a beach,

On the sand.

The beach is empty,

Desolate,

Beautiful.

The sand is soft,

Cool,

Supportive underneath you.

As you look up,

You look around,

Out toward the horizon.

You're enticed to walk closer to where the waves and the tides meet the shore.

Allow yourself to begin to move forward,

Taking in your surroundings,

Feeling the salt on your skin,

The coolness of the breeze,

Smelling the air,

Feeling the wind.

Allowing yourself to be fully immersed in this place.

Take note of the sky above,

The water,

And the waves as they make their way on shore in a rhythm just like the breath,

Moving in and out.

In this moment,

You remember how connected you are and how you are just like the tides,

Ebbing and flowing through this life.

Allow yourself in this space to feel held.

And as you look to the horizon now,

You notice off in the distance a bright light,

The most beautiful light you've ever seen on the horizon of the ocean.

As you get to where the water meets the shore,

You notice that this light is growing bigger and it's moving towards you.

As it moves towards you,

You begin to feel the energy emanating from this light,

For it is familiar.

It is loving.

It is warm.

It feels like home.

As you stand upon the shore now,

This light draws closer and you recognize that it in fact is not just one light,

But multiple lights.

Take note of how many there are as they draw closer to you.

You relax even deeper into that sense of love that's emanating from this energy.

And then you recognize that these lights are not just lights,

But they are divine beings.

They are part of your soul family.

The familiarity you feel makes sense.

For these beings have been with you all along.

They are your guides,

Your protectors,

Your support team that is unseen.

And in this moment,

As they wake their way towards you,

You recognize them.

As they stand before you now,

They've reached the shore.

They encircle you,

Wrapping you in their blanket of love.

As if to say,

Surrender unto me,

For I am here to hold you and I always have been.

And as you feel into this energy of love that surrounds you so completely,

There's a sense of longing and home and bliss that exists all in one moment.

And the being who stands before you now holds out a box,

The most beautiful box you've ever seen.

And they open the lid to this box and you recognize that this box has no bottom.

This is the box.

They're asking you to surrender anything that is no longer serving you,

Anything that is heavy or weighing you down into this box.

With each breath now,

I invite you to imagine yourself releasing in the form of a rock.

All that is weighing you down appears in your hand.

Allow yourself to place the rock into the box.

And I invite you also to place anything that you wish to release that may be hanging on or clinging into this box.

For it has no limit.

Once everything that you wish to release has been placed into the box,

The lid is now closed.

Once again,

Feeling lighter as if a weight has been lifted from your shoulders.

You continue to bask in their light,

Their unconditional love,

This energy.

You notice now that the being who stands before you is now passing the box to your team around you and they pass it to one another in a circle around you.

And as you stand there,

You begin to notice that this box as it moves from being to being,

It becomes lighter and lighter.

It begins to transmute,

To change,

To shift.

It begins to shift and change until it's completely dissolved.

And all that's left in its wake is a bright light,

The most beautiful light you've ever seen.

And it continues to make its way around you through these beings being passed around,

Transmuted into the most beautiful light,

Spinning around you and around you and around you until all of a sudden all you see is this light surrounding you.

This is the power of transmutation,

Of alchemy.

Asking in this new found lightness,

The beings then come back into view.

The being is now holding a new box.

She reaches out this box to you.

They open it inside as a gift.

Allow yourself to receive that gift,

Whatever it may be.

It could be a word,

A memory,

An object.

It may not even be able to be seen in this moment,

But trust that the gift is there for you to receive.

Allow yourself to receive the box with this gift in it for you to take and put into your spiritual heart,

For this is your connection to your team.

Connecting with the energy of gratitude and love,

Thanking them for coming,

Thanking them for being present and allowing them the space now to communicate anything you need to communicate or they need to communicate in these next moments.

Allow the transmission to occur.

It's almost like being in theree now.

There is no time for your beings to return where they've come from with unconditional love.

You release them back to the light but not before one long lasting embrace.

In this embrace you are reassured that they are always with you.

You are never alone.

They are by your side supporting you,

Guiding you,

Keeping you safe,

Helping you along your journey,

Helping you to alchemize anything that comes your way.

You will be reunited with them again one day.

And as you look to the horizon you see those beings of light begin to move back over the ocean.

Allow yourself to see the world around you in a new light,

Refreshed,

Lighter.

Connecting now with the earth,

Noticing the water as it splashes upon your feet as you stand on the sand.

Looking around at the beautiful desolate beach you recognize that although you stand here no other physical body is around,

That you are never alone.

You are always supported,

Always seen,

Always held.

Looking down again at your feet,

Watching the waves lap upon the shore,

Connecting with your breath.

You notice that the waves and the tides are ebbing and flowing in the same rhythm of your breath.

So know that you can visit this sacred place whenever you wish for it is always within you.

So coming back now to your body I invite you to make your way back onto the sand walking away from the shore.

Making your way back into your physical body,

Coming back into the space,

Connecting deeply with the breath once again,

Taking a big inhale through the nose and exhaling out the mouth,

Releasing anything that may still be clinging or hanging on now.

Once again make a inhale through the nose and exhaling out the mouth.

Coming back fully now into your body,

Wiggling your fingers and your toes,

Allowing yourself to stretch,

Feel what it feels like to be back in this space.

And when you're ready you can open your eyes.

So you
