The Magic Of Winter Solstice Intention Setting & Meditation

The winter solstice is a time of self-reflection,

A gathering of energy,

When the axis of the moment pauses,

And starts to move in the opposite direction,

A spiritual time to experience stillness,

To just be.

Welcome to Coached by Nikki Dyer.

We begin this practice here by gently closing your eyes and beginning to sense the unknown that rests in the darkness,

Letting the breath fill the belly as you inhale,

And fall into every exhale,

Letting your muscles become heavy as you breathe air into each one,

Encouraging your thoughts to come and go,

Just like the air you breathe.

Feel the way the cycles of breath become natural as they all slowly blend together.

You feel calm as you pause to take in the quiet stillness surrounding you,

Feeling into this serene peace you have created for yourself.

The winter solstice is a powerful moment of stillness,

A reminder that even on the darkest of days,

There is always the promise of light returning to our world.

I invite you to look inward,

To reflect on the first half of the year.

What did you learn most about yourself?

What is one thing you need to let go of to make space for the new that is coming?

What are your intentions for the rest of the year?

Letting the change of the seasons create an internal shift within,

To find purpose in quiet moments as they find their way to you,

Reminding yourself that this season is for stillness,

For going within,

And for taking the time to nurture your own inner light.

The winter solstice is a time of self-reflection,

A spiritual time to experience stillness,

To just be.

Take a deep breath in,

And exhale,

Beginning to welcome your mind back into your body.

And when you feel centered and ready,

Open your eyes and return to the peaceful stillness that still surrounds you.
