In this powerful guided meditation, you’ll release the old narratives that have shaped your identity — the stories rooted in fear, lack, or survival — and meet the part of you who wrote them. From this sacred space, you’ll reclaim the pen and begin to write a new story: one anchored in love, freedom, and truth. Come back to this meditation whenever you need to remember who you truly are. Let this space hold you again and again. Headphones recommended. Recorded in my jungle home in Thailand. With love, Maya Background music: Stellar Sea from Pixabay

Welcome my love,

Coming to this moment just you,

Your breath and the gentle stillness that is always waiting underneath the noise.

This is your sacred space to soften,

To remember and to return to the truth of who you are.

Find a comfortable position,

Close your eyes,

Let your hands rest softly wherever they land.

Feel the weight of your body being held,

There is nowhere to go,

Nothing to do,

Just be.

Let's begin with the breath,

Inhale slowly and exhale fully,

Again,

Breathe in deeply through the nose and exhale out through the mouth with soft,

This is your time,

Let the world fade,

Come home to your inner world,

Bring your attention to your body,

Notice the shape of you,

The space you take up,

Notice where your body connects with the surface beneath you,

Feel the earth holding you,

Strong,

Steady,

Loving,

Let your awareness travel from the top of your head,

Down to your shoulders,

To your chest,

To your belly,

To your legs and all the way down to your feet,

You are here,

You are grounded,

You are safe,

Now in your mind's eye,

Imagine you are standing before a small glowing fire,

This is not an ordinary fire,

It is sacred,

It only burns what no longer serves,

In your hands you are holding something,

It's a book,

Inside it is an old story you have been carrying,

A story about who you think you are,

A story you didn't even realize was shaping your life,

Gently open it,

Notice what is written there,

What beliefs have been hidden in these pages,

What painful patterns have been playing on repeat,

Maybe it says things like I'm not enough,

I always get left behind,

I must earn love,

No judgment,

Just witness and feel the weight of this old script,

Now imagine someone stepping forward,

This is the one who has been writing your story,

It may be your younger self or shadow version of you,

They look at you with innocent eyes,

They were only trying to protect you,

Trying to make sense of a painful world,

Hold them with love,

Let them know it's okay now,

They don't have to keep writing from fear,

You are here and you are ready to take the pen,

Now look back at the old book,

It's time to let it go,

With love and gratitude place it in the sacred fire,

Watch as the flames gently rise and wrap around it,

Let it burn,

Let it dissolve,

Let it return to the earth,

Take a deep breath in,

Feel the space you have just cleared,

Feel the power returning to your hands,

The old story is gone,

You are no longer bound by it,

Now look down,

A golden pen appears in your hand,

Before you a blank page,

This is your new story my love,

What does it say,

Who are you now that you are free,

Whisper these words as I speak them to you,

I am love,

I am the creator of my life,

I choose a story rooted in truth,

Joy and wholeness,

I release all that is not mine,

I am already enough,

You are the author now and your new story is more beautiful than you ever imagined,

Let this new truth settle deep into your body,

Into your cells,

Into your heart,

I no longer carry what was never mine,

I am free,

My life is sacred,

My voice is powerful,

My love is infinite,

Feel the softness,

Feel the shift,

Feel the rewriting happening now,

Now let the story settle in your body,

Let the new knowing ripple through your being,

Let the silence hold you gently,

You don't need to figure anything out,

You don't need to chase anything,

Just rest,

Just be,

Let yourself be held by the remembrance of who you truly are,

And remember my love,

You can return to this meditation whenever you need a reminder,

Let it hold you,

Guide you and speak to your heart again and again,

This space is always here for you,

Let these words rest in your heart,

Let the stillness wrap around you,

Until next time,

Between the breaths.
