Welcome.
You've walked a gentle path,
Breath by breath,
Returning home to presence,
To self,
To compassion,
To peace and to trust.
Now let's arrive at the source of it all,
Love.
Love that is not only what you feel but what you are.
So just allow your body to settle now in your comfy space.
Softly close your eyes and just be where you can be supported and free to soften.
Take a slow deep breath in through your nose and release it with a long sigh.
Let your breath begin to flow like a tide.
It's easy,
Unforced,
Natural.
With each inhale just feel the invitation to open and with each exhale feel the gentle letting go.
Love welcomes both.
It asks nothing of you but your presence.
Love is not something to chase or earn.
It's the quiet pulse of life itself.
The soft hum beneath your thoughts.
It's the warmth behind your breath.
Even in difficult times,
Love remains like sunlight behind clouds.
Sometimes we mistake love for approval,
Desire or need.
But true love is unconditional.
A steady flame that burns no matter what passes through your life.
Just think of the way nature loves.
How the ocean embraces every wave.
How the earth accepts every seed.
How the sun shines without asking who is worthy of its light.
That same love lives in you.
It has always lived in you.
So take a slow full breath in and imagine drawing that truth into your beautiful heart.
And exhale now letting it ripple outward softening everything it touches.
Because love is not distant.
It is here within this breath,
This heartbeat,
This moment.
So let's begin with a circular breath.
A continuous flowing rhythm.
No pause between the inhale and exhale.
And this symbolizes love's endless movement.
Giving and receiving as one seamless act.
So let's start gently.
Inhale through your nose and flow directly into your exhale through your mouth.
One breath melts into the next.
Round and smooth like the motion of a wave.
There's no rush,
No force.
Just gentle continuity.
Inhale,
Exhale.
Inhale,
Exhale.
And just let the sound of your breath comfort you.
Let it become the rhythm of your heart.
Now just visualize breathing in light.
It's a warm rosy glow and as you exhale the light flows outward.
It's touching everything around you.
So your breath becomes love in motion.
It's a quiet blessing carried on the air.
And as you continue breathing in this smooth circle just silently repeat to yourself.
Inhale,
I receive love.
Exhale,
I give love.
Inhale,
I am love.
Exhale,
I am love.
Feel that truth deep in your chest.
The steady radiance expanding within you.
So that each inhale nourishes and each exhale expresses.
So continue the cycle effortless infinite.
Inhale,
I am love.
If you notice your breath pausing just gently return to the flow.
There's no gap.
It's just the circle.
Now visualize that with every breath your heart is growing brighter.
It's light is touching your shoulders,
Your arms,
Your hands.
And now it's expanding through your torso down to your legs to the soles of your feet.
You are glowing a being of breath,
Light and love.
Let this love begin to reach outward now.
Toward those you care for.
Toward the world itself.
Your breath becomes prayer.
Your heart becomes sanctuary.
Wonderful.
So visualize yourself now standing in a vast open field beneath a twilight sky.
The air is calm,
Cool and fragrant with wildflowers.
Above you the first stars begin to appear.
Soft glimmers of light in endless space.
And as you breathe one of those stars shines a little brighter and it begins to drift downward gently like a falling petal of light.
This petal comes to rest at the center of your chest.
A radiant star now glowing within your heart.
And you can feel its warmth spreading through you from your heart to your throat to your face to the crown of your head.
It's moving through your shoulders and down your arms.
Filling your palms with a gentle light.
This beautiful star,
This inner light is love itself.
It has no beginning or end.
It simply is.
And you stand now bathed in its glow and you realize this is what you have been returning to all along.
Presence,
Compassion,
Peace,
Trust.
They all live within this love.
Now see this light expanding beyond your body.
It's forming a beautiful sphere around you.
It shimmers softly like moonlight on still water.
And within it you feel completely whole.
Completely safe.
Completely loved.
Let that light now reach outward touching every being,
Every heart that beats,
Every life that longs for peace.
So now your love ripples through the world.
It's a quiet wave of healing and remembrance.
You don't need to force it.
Love knows where to go.
It finds its way just as breath does naturally,
Effortlessly.
Just reflect for a moment on your inner,
Pure love.
Beautiful.
Slowly bring your awareness back to your body.
But know that nothing has been left behind.
The love within you remains.
It's anchored in every cell and woven through every breath.
You might feel your chest is gently pulsing.
Your body is warm.
Your mind quiet.
This is love.
It's not a feeling that comes and goes but is the essence of your being.
So let's take one more deep breath in.
And as you exhale,
Whisper softly,
With every breath,
I return to love.
Breathe in.
Exhale,
With every breath,
I remember I am love.
Stay for a few slow breaths.
Resting in the glow of your heart.
If tears come,
Just let them.
If silence comes,
Let it be vast.
And if joy arises,
Just let it bloom freely.
Love welcomes it all.
As you rest here,
Feel gratitude for your breath,
Your courage,
Your journey,
And for the love that has been quietly guiding you all along.
Another deep breath as if embracing the world itself.
You are inhaling love and exhaling pure love.
A perfect,
Endless circle.
Now when you're ready,
Gently return to the room that you are in,
Carrying this light within you.
Slowly open your eyes,
Roll your shoulders if that feels good,
And gently stretch.
You have not only returned to love,
You have remembered that you are love.
Namaste and with love,
My friend.
