The Holiday Present Of Your Presence

Welcome,

Beloved,

To this guided visioning meditation to help you connect to the present of your presence,

The gift of your true self in your life and the lives of all those around you.

Whether you're longing for togetherness or craving silence and solitude this holiday season,

May this meditation help you let go of expectations,

Expectations of what is on yourself,

On others.

May it help you to thrive in the moment,

In the here and now,

Knowing that you are the gift,

That as an individualized expression of the divine,

You hold within your very presence,

A present to all those around you.

And that by helping others do the same,

To recognize,

To be seen,

To be heard,

To be fully present for them,

Allowing them and letting them know that their very presence is a present for you.

Whether it be online or in person,

Whatever the circumstances allow for this year,

May this meditation help bring you closer to the truth of who you are and to the truth that surrounds you.

Dear God and guiding spirits,

Angels of light and love,

Archangels and all those in our teams of divine helpers who support us on our path to our highest good,

Guide us,

Guide us in our every breath through inspired action,

Through inspired being.

Thank you,

Thank you,

Thank you for being present here with us.

Take a moment now to make sure that your body is in a position that feels open,

Open to the light,

Open to the next few minutes,

Allowing and trusting that you are safe and that you are guided.

And most of all,

That you are so loved.

In your mind's eye,

Envisage yourself in a natural environment that nourishes you.

Whether you're in a forest or underwater,

Floating above the earth or among the stars,

See this world,

Feel this world.

And as you become more comfortable,

Walking around,

Swimming,

Flying,

Sitting or lying,

Take this world in and notice how as you become more present,

As you become more aware,

Looking,

Listening,

Feeling,

Notice how your environment responds to you,

How the energy is flowing between you and this environment,

And how this unconditional love,

This recognition of who you truly are,

Manifests in growing beauty,

In strengthening feelings of love.

Allow this world to communicate to you the gift of your presence,

Allow it in its own presence to love you.

Whether that be in the flora or the fauna,

Whether that be in the colors,

In the temperatures,

In the growth.

Take a moment now to feel this interaction,

This gift,

This recognition of your true self,

As you simply be in this world that lives within you.

Notice any changes in your physical body as you relax into this beauty,

Into this love.

Breathe deeply of this love and light from all around you.

Let it fill every cell of your being.

Breathe it in deeply,

Feeling how this breath,

This love,

This light that is entering your every cell is helping you to release any fear,

Any anxiety,

Any stress,

Is helping you embrace love,

Peace,

Joy,

Health,

Wealth,

Happiness,

Freedom,

Your birthright,

Your very truth.

Allow your imagination,

Which connects you to this love and beauty,

To expand.

For through your imagination comes inspiration,

Comes intuition.

They are three levels of higher knowledge.

Use these to connect to yourself,

To your team of divine helpers that's here for you now.

And as your awareness increases of this love,

Of this light,

As you breathe it in,

Your breath being a bridge to spirit,

Feel now your team of divine helpers around you in this world,

In this environment that you are seeing in your mind's eye.

You may be able to identify some of them or simply feel it doesn't matter.

If you're on the knowing level,

Know that you are surrounded by support,

By love,

That you can do no wrong,

That you are more than good enough as you are.

And as you feel Source Energy's love enveloping you,

Ask your team,

Your heart,

Your intuition,

How you may love yourself in a truer way,

In a more gentle,

Kinder way in this day.

Ask your body to release and relax into this knowing,

Into this intention to be more present,

Not just for others,

But for yourself.

For you are the gift,

First to yourself on your soul's journey and then to those around you.

And without judgment or self-criticism,

Absorb into yourselves this intention,

This knowing of loving yourself more,

Of opening yourself to you.

In your mind's eye,

How is this manifesting?

You may see your own light in this world,

Looking at yourself from above.

You may see that light shining brighter.

You may see the gardens growing around you,

Being reflected on your own skin.

You may feel yourself breathing deeper,

Singing.

Allow in the next minute for this love of yourself,

This recognition of your being,

A drop of divine essence in this ocean of love,

In this ocean of humanity.

Allow that to manifest itself within you on all levels,

In whichever way it's meant to be,

Trusting that your experience right now is perfect for you and may be different the next time you listen to this meditation.

Let yourself be carried into this flow of love,

Connecting you to divine oneness,

Knowing that you are here for a reason and that reason is first and foremost to just simply be here now.

Feel the weight of the world release itself from your shoulders.

You might visually see or sense expectations,

Stresses,

Challenges.

Simply lift off,

Knowing that if you connect in the moment to your team of divine helpers,

To your heart in that instant prayer,

Asking for support in a moment that may be challenging for you,

That you will be connected to the truth and to inspiration,

To forgiveness of yourself and others,

To inspired action on how you may spread this gift of love that you are.

Through your acceptance,

Through your seeing,

Through your listening,

And when needed,

Through your stepping back to allow others to have their experience so that you may regain your peace.

For your own peace is the greatest gift,

That peace and love that you are at your core.

It is easy to be triggered out of it.

Awareness is key,

Knowing that you will probably react in ways that you have your whole life in certain instances,

And that's okay.

Stop.

Take a deep breath and smile at yourself and at others.

And start again.

Know that sometimes healthy withdrawal is necessary.

Take time to reconnect,

To breathe,

To reconnect to this world where you feel loved and truly honored for who you are,

To regain that inner knowingness,

That strength,

That peace,

That love.

That joy before stepping back out and being inspired to say,

Do,

And be what comes next.

Take another few deep breaths now.

With your breath in,

Absorbing more of this love that surrounds you from your team,

From source energy,

From the universe,

From Mother Earth.

And with every breath out,

Releasing anything that doesn't serve you,

Be it from the past or the present or the imagined future.

Be it the assumptions you make,

The fears,

The anxieties.

Let it all go to simply be here now.

We are unwrapping the present of your presence,

Knowing that your very beingness makes a difference in the world.

Breathe that in.

And as you do,

You become aware that the world in your mind's eye is becoming brighter,

Even brighter.

No matter where you are in this natural environment that soothes and nourishes you,

Everything seems to have a golden tinge,

A sparkle,

A radiance.

And you notice as you look from above,

From the eyes of your higher self and your soul,

Your oversoul,

That you there in your physical body are also shining brighter.

You're sparkling,

You're radiant.

And as you keep this radiance and let go of this natural environment,

You visualize in your mind's eye,

Your life today.

While you keep that sparkle and that radiance,

You may be brought to a situation that you find challenging,

Or something that you call reality.

Maybe the people that you're with this holiday season,

Or those you would like to be with.

And simply evolve this scene in your mind's eye,

In your heart.

As your radiance shines,

What emerges from your true self?

Be they words,

Feelings,

Inspired actions,

The present of your presence,

Or simply embracing this scene,

This situation,

These people,

With your love,

Allow your radiance to shine bright,

To transform this world around you.

While you breathe and allow without the obstacles that you create for yourself.

How would this situation evolve,

Emerge?

How would your peace spread to those around you?

How would your love color the situation?

Feel it growing as your light shines brighter around you,

Spreading further from where you are at the center.

Engage in the conversations,

Seeing that your team of divine helpers,

As well as the teams of those that are there with you,

Help support this growing love and light that you are,

And that they are.

The gift of you and the gift of them joining in whichever way feels good.

For the next minute,

Evolve the scene in your heart,

Connect to a deeper truth,

To the present of your presence.

Believe in this self,

Your true self,

The beloved.

Mirrored in all those around you.

And now in your mind's eye,

Seeing your light bright and sparkly and shiny and radiant,

Let the others and the world around you slowly dissipate until you are standing there,

Or sitting there,

Or whatever position you happen to be,

There on your own with your team of divine helpers,

Or one member of your team of divine helpers.

Whether you know who that is,

Or simply feel as a loving presence.

Again,

This guide,

This angel,

This presence,

This ancestor,

This mentor,

This being may be different every time you listen to this meditation,

Depending on what it is that you need in this moment.

But in this moment,

There before you,

Embracing you in pure,

Unconditional love and acceptance,

Seeing you for everything you are,

For who you truly are,

As a human and as a spirit,

As an individualized expression of the divine,

They offer you words of wisdom for your day.

Ask what guidance they have for you and listen with all your senses.

It may come through words,

Feelings,

Images,

Knowingness,

Memories,

Inspired action.

And to help you be a present through your very presence,

They offer you a very small token,

Something that is actually in your physical reality,

Something that you may carry in your pocket,

And every time that you touch or feel it,

Reconnect to that love that you are,

Reminds you to breathe deeply,

To reconnect to that life force,

Your bridge to your intuition,

Something that can act as an anchor and a reminder of the gift that you are,

So that you may be more loving to yourself and others,

So that you may connect to your inspiration,

So that you may remember that the others around you are also a gift,

And that together you dance in a greater picture.

Once this meditation is over,

Find this little token.

Perhaps you're not seeing or sensing it in the meditation,

But you'll know as you open your eyes and look around in a minute,

And carry it with you this holiday season,

As a reminder to ask yourself,

What would my radiant,

Light-loving being be or do in this moment,

To be a greater gift to myself and to those around me,

For that is the true holiday spirit.

Know that you are loved,

And that the answers to your questions lie within you.

Remember to ask your heart,

Your intuition,

Your team of divine helpers,

And reconnect to this loving,

Nourishing world that is within you,

Any time you need it.

Peace be with you.

Happy holiday season,

No matter how that looks and emerges for you,

Knowing that it doesn't need to be any particular way,

That you're doing and being it your way.

Namaste.
