Each of us is a singular thread being woven into the tapestry,
The whole fabric of humanity and the universe.
Wherever you are have a sense that you can really become conscious of and take in the vastness of space around you,
Of the universe,
Beyond the solar system,
Infinity,
The flow of air that is always all around us.
All breathing the same air and that we bring inside of us when we breathe.
And just take some breaths to centre and ground and feel you have arrived,
Simply arrived in your body on the earth.
Keep your eyes open if you can,
Gazing upwards into that vastness.
But if they spontaneously want to close,
Always go with your own natural instincts.
Let yourself drop into your foundation,
Let your body surrender completely to this hug of the earth.
And feel that stability,
That support and what it means to you,
How that feels for you,
The ground underneath you.
That your whole body can release and soften its edges and melt into the whole body of the earth,
Of which you are a part.
You belong,
You are loved by this earth.
Now feel yourself breathing in and taking in the flow of the air and the space all around you.
Taking in infinite space and everything that is pulsing and vibrating in that space,
The aliveness of creation,
The vitality.
And feel with the pores of your skin as if they are eyes,
The eyes of your skin,
The texture,
Temperature and touch of the air flowing around you.
Bringing a light awareness back to your breathing,
Focus for a few moments more on your exhalation,
On that releasing,
That particular flow of the out breath.
So breathe in all the air possible,
Fill yourself,
Fill yourself up,
Let yourself stretch open.
And then at the top of that breath,
Pause for a moment.
The exhalation will come naturally,
Pause there and feel that moment of connecting perhaps to something bigger,
Deeper,
More mysterious that you are in touch with.
And when you exhale,
How does that release feel through your body?
The release of something,
Some part of you back to the earth.
And when you finish that breath,
Again wait,
Wait for the inhalation to come naturally and hold that note between you and infinity.
And then exhale what needs to be released,
Maybe some stickiness,
Some tension or holding that is mirking up your inner lens into your deepest self and what gifts await you there.
Any old patterns of control that might be holding you back,
Any kind of stickiness that is like a tar on your psyche can be released and dissolved in your exhalation back to the earth.
The earth would love to receive it from you.
The whole of space can take it.
You can dissolve your breath into space.
The exhalation here is a dissolving,
Diffusing breath of release back into the atmosphere.
Any inhalation is a filling with something fresh,
A fresh gift of a moment from the vastness of life.
All that is available there for you to take inside just for you.
When you breathe this way with the tension on the exhale,
You may feel a gradual slowing and lengthening of your breathing,
A steady pulse.
You're knowing your own steadiness,
Your inner spirit moving inside you and moving you yourself deeper into your own being.
When you're ready,
Come back to your ordinary natural breath without changing it,
Letting it be.
Feeling that rhythm begin to settle into its own particular flavor inside you right now,
Its own rhythm.
With your awareness in the roots of you in the ground and your gaze,
Your spirit also aspiring,
Reaching up into the vastness beyond,
Ask yourself,
What are you being called for?
What are you calling in?
And what in you is calling you from within?
You are sensing it.
You're here.
In meditation,
Something has called you.
Breathe deeply with those questions.
What are you being called for?
What are you calling in and what is calling you from inside you?
Greet anything that arises,
Any thoughts,
Emotions,
Images,
Sensations.
Breathe your inquiry.
Your own being knows itself very well and is inviting you into a reunion.
You can gather in.
You are being brought home to your depth.
Breathing with the whole of the universe,
We are made of the same energy as every particle of this air,
Of every life form.
We breathe with the universe and it breathes with us and we all breathe in the same air.
We are all part of the solar system,
All here to play our part as we wish,
As feels spontaneous and free to us from our individuality,
From our unique expression of creation that we are and no one else's.
No one else's idea of you.
No one else's demands of you or in position.
Your own free nature,
Free to express,
Free to feel,
Free to love life as you love it.
Can you give yourself that permission?
Can you feel from life?
Draw that in,
Receive.
Dive a little deeper inside now,
Feeling yourself breathing in your own atmosphere,
Inside yourself.
Taking a pilgrimage within yourself,
A mysterious journey.
You don't know when you enter it where you will go and your journey will be unique.
It must be unique.
It's yours.
In communion with something bigger,
Whatever that feels it is to you,
The bigger energies as you feel them,
Awakening you,
Encouraging you,
Showing you.
Hold space for the unexpected.
Tuning in now to your inner power.
Call it in.
Some way you have of sinking in deeper,
Transporting yourself deeper,
Closer within,
Down into the reaches,
The depths of yourself and asking something deep to be revealed to you.
And in your depths,
Call in your creative power.
Creative power.
We are all creators in our own way.
Power of your heart,
All that is pulsating in your own heart,
That vast territory inside you.
The power of your healing,
Your capacity for self-renewal,
That you know,
You've experienced it in your life.
The power of your forgiveness,
Your tenderness,
Your compassion to yourself and to the world.
You have that power.
The special power of your insight,
Your personal intuition,
Your sensitivity,
Your instincts,
What is right,
What is needed for what is beyond or deeper than the ordinary.
And more in touch with the poetry of your soul,
Poetry of the mystery school of life.
Call it in.
Remember.
Claim.
And all the other power and gifts that you see and you know,
Everything that matters to you.
And particularly what you love,
What makes your heart sing,
What kindles your aliveness,
Ignites your inner flame,
Your passion,
Your joy.
Call in your loves.
People,
Places,
Activities,
Feelings,
Tastes,
Textures,
Sights and sounds.
Your loves that are particular to you.
Maybe reviving the old loves you had as a child or when you were younger and bringing them back from those exiled places.
What have you loved in life so much that you felt all your aliveness circulating in you?
Go there.
Call it in.
Feel it.
Band your breath into your heart as you fill with your love for life and being alive.
What you love is your power,
Is a message to you about your own intimacy with life,
Your own path,
Your own experience and your own unique expression of creation and the desire to enhance creation itself from you,
From your gifts.
To be heard,
To express,
To unleash,
To celebrate,
To be free.
Summon your loves.
What do you love right now in this moment?
What have you always loved?
What is your burning truth?
For it is time now.
It is time.
Now in private meditation,
Be with yourself.
Be with your gifts.
Be with your power.
Be with your love.
Feel them pulsating in your essence.
Bathe yourself in all the vibrations and melt into love with them.
Melt into love.
Bathe there while they infuse you.
Relax into a bath of your own essence,
Your own deep unique essence for as long as you like.
