A warm welcome to this practice today.
Thank you for taking the time to settle down and to be here in this moment.
Today in this practice we're going to explore and take some time to call our energy back towards ourselves.
And I invite you to take a moment to settle into a comfortable position.
Start to notice the flow of your breathing.
Taking a gentle breath inwards.
And a release outwards.
Starting to notice the ground beneath you.
Strong,
Steady,
Holding.
And in this moment you're calling yourself and calling your energy back home.
I invite you to bring your awareness to this present moment.
And with curiosity,
Gently consider and notice where your energy has gone.
To consider what people,
Places,
Patterns or worries have been pulling your energy away from yourself.
Away from your heart.
Away from your inner spark of life.
Simply acknowledging what is true.
Sometimes we may find that we have been given our energy away without truly realizing the impact it's had on our hearts.
And on the energy that we hold within.
If you can find to remain gently with your breathing.
Remain aware of the inward and outward flow.
Our energy is precious.
And when we're not intentional,
It can begin to leak outward in every direction for our own.
And you may find it useful to ask yourself,
What am I saying yes to,
But I would rather say no to?
What commitments am I maintaining that no longer fit who I'm becoming?
And where am I wearing a mask instead of being authentic?
Allowing yourself to breathe into any recognition this brings up.
These energy leaks are not failures,
They're simply places where we can forget to protect what is ours.
This moment,
Take in a gentle inhale inwards.
Gentle exhale outwards.
I invite you to bring a hand to your heart or to focus on your heart space.
Really feeling that sense of connection to you,
To your life force,
And to your body.
I invite you to imagine all the places your energy has scattered to.
Throughout your day,
Your week,
Throughout your life.
And as you do,
I invite you to visualize golden light of energy extending from your heart and out into the world.
To people,
To places,
To worries,
To old versions of yourself.
Notice where it leads to,
Notice what it clings to,
Notice where it has been scattered.
Just a gentle observation.
And now I invite you to say within your heart and your mind,
And your power,
I am cooling and drawing my energy back to me.
And in this moment,
I invite you to imagine that you are gently cooling this healing and healthy energy back towards you.
Feel your own energy,
Your own energy,
Your own energy,
Answering your call.
And witness as it navigates its way back to you,
As your energy navigates back to where it truly belongs.
Envision this golden light returning to your heart,
Filling you with warmth and with life force.
This energy was always yours,
And this ritual is your call back towards wholeness,
Remaining present to your breathing,
Remaining present to this power.
Continuing to gently observe and witness your energy and all of the fragmented pieces of yourself returning.
Returning from the person who drained you,
From the commitment that no longer serves you,
From the worries that you cannot control.
I invite you to say in your heart and in your mind,
Every piece of my energy that has scattered is now coming back to me.
Feel your body filling with light as your spark returns within your heart.
Notice how it feels to have this energy whole within you,
To be fully here within yourself.
This is your power,
Your life force,
Your sacred energy,
And it belongs to you.
Staying present with the gentle flow of your breathing.
Noticing if there's anything that you need in this moment.
Any way in which you want to honor your energy.
As your energy returns,
You get to decide where it goes.
I invite you to consider,
What do I want to give my energy to?
What makes me feel at home?
What makes me feel alive?
Let yourself feel into what truly lights your spark.
Allow yourself to commit to protecting your energy,
To being intentional about where you place it.
It is your responsibility to keep it alive,
To be mindful about where your energy is guided and how you call it back to you.
Taking this moment of a focus on your heart space,
To take a gentle inhale inwards,
And a gentle exhale outwards.
This is a daily practice,
And you will scatter again,
Your energy will scatter again,
As we do naturally throughout our days,
And that is okay.
What matters is that we remember to call ourselves back again and again.
We are not meant to pour our energy into the water,
To pour ourselves out until nothing remains.
We are meant to stay full,
To stay lit up,
To stay alive in ourselves.
I invite you to bring your focus to your heart space and to declare,
I am calling and drawing my energy back to me.
Trust that your in-spark will know how to return to you when you give it the permission to do so.
Take a gentle moment to invite yourself back into the present,
To open yourself up to the here and the now,
To allow your body and yourself to awaken to this space,
To open your eyes,
Open your heart,
And to carry this fullness and your energy forward,
And to honor it throughout your days.
Thank you.
