Namaste and welcome to this guided meditation on slowing down in a hectic world.
As we come to experience slowing down,
We're going to come home to ourselves and home to our connection with the divine.
So let's begin by just taking a few deep breaths.
As you breathe in,
Allowing yourself to just take in fresh,
New energy.
And as you breathe out,
Let your shoulders soften,
Your neck release and allow yourself to completely relax.
Breathing in and filling with peace.
And breathing out and completely relaxing.
And just allowing this breath to start to relax you,
It takes on an oceanic quality.
As the breath comes in,
You're feeling the waves of peace.
And as the breath goes out,
You're just letting go deeper and deeper.
As we breathe,
We're just starting by bringing the body and the mind into a relaxed state.
And now we're just going to start to focus our attention inside on the self.
It's as if you feel your energy drawing inwards away from all of the hectic,
Fast spinning situations and things of the outside world.
And just for this time,
We're going to turn our full attention inside,
Finding a place As I,
The soul,
Find this reservoir of stillness in myself,
I'm able to come into a greater and greater experience of peace.
It's as if I'm suddenly finding that there is a vast ocean of peace inside of myself,
And I'm able to feel it.
By paying too much attention to all of the outside situations,
It could be that I,
The soul,
Have lost touch with my inner kingdom of peace,
My inner world,
Where an ocean of peace resides.
As I connect to my inner world,
I also effortlessly unite,
Connect with the source of peace,
With the divine,
The one.
And as I feel myself completely absorbed in peace,
I feel I am bathed in peace.
The overwhelming love and power of the source completely showers me with unlimited peace,
Power,
Love,
And bliss.
It's as if I find myself bathing in an unlimited ocean of peace,
Where time feels endless,
Eternal.
I feel I have the space and the freedom to just be myself.
My mind is able to rest in a stillness,
As I'm simply free by connecting to my inner true world and connecting with the source.
The busyness of the outside world is far away,
Like at a distance,
And I am able to gain the clarity,
The strength,
The space,
The peace of mind that I require for everything in my life.
Having this time to bathe in an ocean of peace away from the busyness of the world allows me to slow down,
To take space,
To recharge the battery of the soul with the source.
I'm able to take in nourishment and love and peace and fill my own stores so that I can act in my life from this truthful place with the original qualities of the soul.
Nour and peace and love and purity and bliss.
Bathed in love,
I find that any problem can easily be solved.
As my heart is filled and my mind is filled,
I am able to fully receive whatever I need to handle any life situation.
The chains and pulls of negativity easily fall away.
All negativity is dissolved and I am able to come from a place of love in all of life's situations.
By giving myself the space to bathe in the ocean of peace with the source of peace,
I am able to slow down in a hectic world and find peace.
Knowing for the self,
I can stay here as long as I like and return to the world and situations and responsibilities when I'm ready and fully charged.
I can then bring wisdom and peace to everything I do.
All shanti.
