Hello,

Beautiful soul.

And welcome to today's meditation.

In today's meditation,

I'm going to guide you in learning to meditate.

This meditation is designed for anyone who is just starting their meditation journey,

Or anyone who is just coming back to their meditation journey after a break.

When you are ready,

Finding a spot where you will not be disturbed.

It is essential to make sure that you are in a place where you can tune in to your inner ward without distraction.

Making sure that your phone is away from you or is on sleep mode.

Making sure that you are away from anyone that may distract you.

And finding a comfortable spot where you can be still and in tuned with your own guidance system.

So when you're ready,

Sitting down and as you sit,

Making sure that your spine is erect.

Making sure that you are sitting up straight,

With either your feet firmly planted on the floor and a chair or crisscrossed on your lap.

And starting to close down your eyes.

And for this meditation,

We'll have our hands on our lap,

With palms facing up,

Representing the receiving mode.

Breathing in through your nose.

And then giving a big breath out.

Allowing your eyes to just fall shut.

Allowing yourself to come into your breath.

And just focus on your breath now.

Allow your thoughts to just be there.

Allowing your thoughts to just come and go.

As your thoughts come,

See them like clouds in the sky.

Coming and going.

Coming and going.

Without getting attached to a thought.

Just observe it.

Allowing your thought to just skate away like a cloud in the sky.

And then coming back into your breath.

Breathing in through your nose.

Breathing out through your mouth.

Anchoring yourself back into the breath.

Breathing in.

Breathing out.

One more deep breath,

Just like that now.

Breathing in.

And breathing out.

And just allow yourself now,

Just a minute,

To just focus on the inhale and the exhale.

Just like that.

Breathing in.

And breathing out.

As thoughts come,

Just allow them to be there.

Observe them and come back into the breath.

Breathing in.

Breathing out.

Allowing the music to guide you deeper into a meditative state.

Focusing on your breath.

The sound of the music.

And resting and allowing yourself to go even deeper now.

Imagining a white light shining down upon you.

Relaxing you.

Bringing peace to you.

And transformation.

Feeling this light moving down through the crown of your head.

Relaxing your thoughts and your mind.

Allowing this light to move down through your face.

Relaxing your face,

Your neck.

Moving down through your shoulders,

Your arms,

Your back.

Letting go of anything that you're carrying that is no longer serving you.

Moving down through your chest and your heart.

Healing from any pain or sorrows that are resonating in your heart.

Moving down through your stomach,

Your pelvis.

Down through your legs,

Your feet.

And resting here for a moment.

Focusing and coming back into your breath.

And notice how you feel now.

The peace and the restfulness.

Breathing in.

And breathing out.

And allowing yourself to stay here as long as you need.

Knowing that there is no rush.

That you can come back whenever you are ready.

Or stay here as long as you need.

And if you are ready,

Starting to allow yourself to come back into your body now.

By noticing what you can hear.

The sounds of my voice.

The sounds of the music.

Your breath.

Noticing what you can feel.

The clothes on your skin.

The emotions.

Noticing what you can smell.

The sense of the room around you.

Noticing what you can taste.

The taste and the palate of your tongue.

And then whenever you are ready,

No rush,

Slowly opening up your eyes.

Finding a focal point in front of you.

And noticing what you can see.

Finding three things in the room around you to bring you back into the present moment.

Breathing in.

And breathing out.

Welcome back beautiful soul.

Welcome back.

Allow this meditation to guide you through your day.

Knowing that meditation does not need to be complicated.

It is the simplicity of your breath.

It's the simplicity of listening to the sounds around you.

The simplicity of a body scan of light to help you to rest deeply.

The simplicity of noticing the five senses that are always all around you.

Thank you so much for joining me today.

And allow yourself to listen to this meditation every day for 21 days to rewire your mind to more rest,

More tranquility,

And more peace.

And share this with someone else who needs this today.

Thank you so much.

I am Generous Jenedi Kendall,

Your meditation teacher and your unconditional love leader.

Have a beautiful day.

Namaste.
