Okay,
Taking a deep breath.
And bringing your awareness into this body.
Every breath.
Brings you more present.
Into this physical form.
With your inhaling breath,
Noticing.
Where there's any tension in your body.
Maybe any aches.
Any body parts that.
Are asking for attention.
And with every exhale,
We welcome those body parts,
Those aches and tensions to simply soften.
You notice that this physical body is touching the earth.
Add there.
Is an earth beneath you holding you up?
And providing structure.
Nourishment at all times.
Noticing that your physical body.
Is made of the same things that the earth is made of.
Nature.
Substance.
Density.
The physical body and the earth can communicate with each other.
Through this form.
You are made to be on this earth.
You are of the earth and the earth is of you.
And out of the crown of your head,
You can feel all that's above you.
You notice.
The movement and the flow.
Spaciousness above you.
And expansiveness above your head.
And noticing that that expansiveness is in this body as well.
So many spaces in your body.
Energy vibrating within you and around you.
That you are energy.
The space above you is energy.
That you get to communicate.
Through energy.
You are of the space,
The space is of you.
In harmony.
And bringing your awareness to your heart.
Feeling this vibration of your heart.
The heart is what makes you,
You.
The heart vibration is completely unique.
It's your fingerprint.
Feeling into your own uniqueness.
Getting curious about your own vibration.
Your own vibration of love.
That not a single other person has the same.
Vibration of love.
The way you love others is.
.
.
Beautifully unique.
This vibration at your heart.
Vibrates with joy.
No one else has that same laughter.
That same humor.
Here at the heart,
You tap into your passions.
What lights you up.
May have 10 different people all playing the piano.
And one plays the piano.
Because he's forced to take lessons.
And one plays piano because he can read the notes.
And one is.
Playing Mozart.
Up in his head.
Thinking.
Trying.
And another plays Mozart.
All about the feeling and the emotions.
Bringing tears to the eyes.
And another is grooving with the jazz music.
Or a Dixieland tune.
Here at the heart.
Your essence.
Is what plays the piano of life.
Choosing the notes.
Choosing the vibrations.
Choosing the pause in the middle.
We can play this game of life in so many different ways.
And it's your heart essence.
That chooses.
Feeling into your heart.
About what it is that lights you up.
What it feels like to be lit up.
What it feels like to have laughter.
What it feels like to have tears.
The world can handle too.
Different things can hand you two different things.
The world can.
Bring to you a plate of potatoes.
And someone who's vegan finds it the most nourishing food.
Someone who's paleo.
Decides not to eat.
The world can bring you a talkative friend.
And it can fill your heart.
Or it can make you feel small.
Can overpower you.
Where it can open you up.
Each of us is unique.
And how we interact with the world.
Here at the heart.
All of the energy is mixing.
The vibrations of the earth.
The physical world beneath us.
The nourishment.
The building blocks,
The tools.
And the wispy spaciousness from above.
The movement and growth.
Inspiration,
Guidance.
Infinite possibilities.
It all mixes here at your heart.
And that's where you get to choose.
As a human.
What you want to create.
The heart is a space of choice.
The heart is a space of will.
And it comes back to the question,
What lights me up?
Can I be guided in my creations?
Based on what is uniquely human.
Sometimes we have to get quiet at our hearts.
To be able to hear.
Direction,
The purpose.
The knowing.
We bring our awareness outside of ourselves.
To the edge of our energy field.
To our boundaries.
And at the edge of you.
We simply find what is not you.
Other people.
And their energy.
Events of the world.
Nature.
Structures.
At the edge of your field we find.
.
.
Judgments.
Responsibilities.
Expectations.
Find other people's emotions.
And sometimes all of that noise can become very loud.
And it starts to.
Make suggestions to your heart.
Make suggestions about.
What to create.
With these building blocks of the earth and inspiration from the divine.
Which problems to fix.
Which hearts to mend.
This world around you can be.
A distraction.
It can be.
.
.
A nudge.
Can be a request.
Or a shout.
Spend your time this way or that.
Mix your energy in this way or that.
And it can be confusing.
Your child wants help and support.
A boss would like.
And extra deliverable.
Nature would like you to plant another tree.
The news would like you to be upset.
Which way do I vibrate?
In all of this,
We welcome you to bring your awareness back.
To your heart.
Here at the heart.
Supported by the earth.
Guided by the divine.
Connecting.
With your essence.
And we see your essence as a flame.
It's bright.
Golden light.
At your heart,
Burning with your vibration.
Lighting you up.
What lights me up?
What are my passions?
How do I want to be in this world?
Feeling for a moment into what brings you joy.
Considering for a moment the things that make you smile.
Bring about that big belly laughter.
When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?
What was it about that moment that lit you up?
Feeling that laughter inside of you,
In that flame at your heart.
And the flame.
Begins to shake.
Giggling.
And the flame shakes even more.
That laughter.
Brings more oxygen to this flame at your heart.
That laughter.
Helps your flame to grow.
To expand.
Your joy starts to take up more space.
And your eyes are lit up.
And you're feeling excitement.
There's so much energy moving around inside of you.
That energy is.
A bottomless pit.
Just keeps generating more.
When we're excited and joyous and happy.
Engaged in what lights us up.
We have energy for miles.
And as we smile.
That energy just grows and fills you.
The flame within you growing.
Throughout this body,
Filling you up.
Laughter,
Expanding that flame,
Jiggling it,
Bouncing it,
Shaking it.
To expand outside of this body.
Out into your energy field.
And the question is,
What happens when your light,
Your excitement reaches the edge of your energy field?
That means that at the edge of your field you get to connect with others.
With a smile.
Connecting with family members.
With bright eyes.
And a smile on your face.
Connecting with your boss.
Excited about life.
When we meet the world at the edge of our field.
With our own fire,
Our own brightness.
It welcomes them to join in on the smile.
To connect with you through laughter.
When judgment is pressed into the edge of your field.
You can see it for what it is.
A request.
And you get to choose.
If you want to dim your light for the request.
Or uplift that request.
To a higher vibration.
When you meet expectation at the edge of your field.
To we lower our vibration,
Dim our light.
For expectation.
Or do we take it on and say.
.
.
This is what I want to do anyway.
Let's bring it to a higher level.
Responsibilities.
That we can do as a job.
As a drag.
Because it brings us joy.
There's an invitation to light up whatever we do.
With that fire.
That essence within us.
There's an invitation to see it as a choice.
We get to choose how to show up.
We get to choose what we are engaging with.
And there's a welcoming to bring our inner light.
All of that.
Leading with your light.
And it's important every time we expand.
To interact with the world.
To come back to the heart.
And check in.
And decide if it still resonates.
We find that belly laugh at the heart,
That excitement,
Giddiness,
Joy that expands out of us all the way to the edge of our field.
And then we experience the world from that space.
It's important.
To then come back to the heart.
And check in.
That in every now moment.
Our essence can choose.
What makes me laugh in this now moment?
Expanding it out,
Engaging with the world.
Having experiences.
And then coming back to the heart.
Based on those experiences.
Based on my vibration in the now.
How do I reorganize?
What is my truth in this now?
What lights me up.
And then we explosively expand.
All the way out to the edge of our field.
Interact with the world.
Create,
Inspire,
Spread joy.
And instead of becoming depleted,
We come back to ourselves.
Returning to that heart.
Do I want to interact in that same way again?
I'm not the same person I was yesterday.
How do I want to show up today?
Finding what lights you up,
Expanding outward.
Sharing your heart resonance.
Receiving love.
Feeling nature.
Being part of nature.
And coming back to your heart.
This ebb and flow.
Expansion and contraction.
All centered around your essence.
Playing with it with your breath.
Inhaling to bring all of this energy back to your heart.
Tuning in,
Being self-aware,
Choosing.
Exhaling to expand,
To grow,
To take up space.
To express.
Inhaling to return back to your heart.
Consolidating your energy in a new way.
And then you expand again with the exhale.
The ebb and flow.
Expansion and contraction.
Never showing up the same way twice.
Never showing up in the world.
The same way.
Every time you come back to the heart.
Things are a little different.
They've been clarified.
You get to try something new.
The world around you keeps changing.
Realizing that the world within you keeps changing as well.
Coming back to your heart.
And the feeling that you are home.
This is your home.
To your vibration.
It's who you are.
Home is a launching pad for life.
Home is the place that catches you.
Home is the place where you can just be.
Feeling at home within yourself.
Supported by the physical earth.
Inspired.
By the divine spacious light.
Simply being.
Setting the intention.
Always being connected.
To your heart.
Your essence.
And your soul.
I bow to the Tao and all things,
To all the teachers before me.
And to each of you for living from your bright heart.
Thank you for being here.
