This is a guided meditation to help you drop your worries and regret.
In the background you can hear binarial beats for anxiety relief to release stress,
Worry and overthinking.
So to help you reduce anxiety,
Start by taking a moment to relax your body.
Soften any unnecessary tension in your belly and shoulders and find a posture that feels relaxed such as sitting up or lying down.
Now close your eyes or look downwards and rest your hands in an easy,
Effortless way.
Take a few moments to scan your awareness through the sensations of your body and wherever possible soften and release obvious areas of physical tension.
Be aware of your body,
Your body breathing,
Your chest rising and falling with each breath.
And now imagine standing in the street outside of your home with two heavy suitcases.
Know that one of those suitcases is full of worries about the future and the other suitcase is full of regrets about the past.
Take a moment standing there in the street holding these two heavy suitcases and reflect about each one.
Reflect about the future and how it will come on its own accord whenever it comes and that most of what we worry about will never happen.
Standing out there in the street reflect about the past,
The other heavy suitcase.
Consider how the past cannot be changed.
All we can do in the present moment is to learn from it.
Put in whatever corrections make sense.
Become more skillful.
Become a better person and just move on.
Standing there in the street feeling the weight of these suitcases and absorbing the wisdom of your own reflections right now,
Make a conscious decision.
Do you want to drop the suitcase of worry about the future?
If so,
Simply drop it.
Just drop it.
Then standing there in the street with the other suitcase so heavy about the past,
Make a conscious decision.
Do you want to drop it?
And if so,
Simply drop it.
Just drop it.
As soon as you have dropped the two suitcases,
Walk back into your home and take your seat or lie down right where you are right now and plop down so relaxed like someone coming home from a long trip,
Dropping suitcases and just relaxing.
Rested in the present,
Just breathing,
Resting in the natural well-being of the parasympathetic nervous system,
Resting in the fundamental well-being of awareness itself.
Awareness which does not include worry or regret.
Rest as if this is meaningful for you.
Allow yourself to simply rest,
Feeling a sense of peace,
Of joy,
Of well-being.
Sense the natural happiness,
Always your true home without carrying heavy suitcases of worries about the future or full of regrets about the past.
Simply rest here in your body right now with total relaxation throughout your body and mind.
Rest here for as long as you find comfortable.
Thank you.
