Today's meditation is inspired by a beautiful experience I had with some family constellations.
And what really came to me is that there's so much that has happened in our lives that comes from love that we can look at,
That we can let go,
To shine our light brighter.
For I believe that every single one of us was brought here to Earth to share their beautiful,
Unique gifts.
And so are you.
You're destined to share your smile,
Your voice,
Your joy,
Your happiness,
Your tears,
All of you.
So in this meditation,
I intend to help us connect back to our heart,
To our center,
To really step into our power and be that force of love that we're destined to be.
I invite you to get into a comfortable seat,
Or perhaps you wish to lay down,
Whatever is most comfortable for you.
Always following your guidance.
And when you're comfortable,
See how you can be even 2% more comfortable.
Perhaps by adding an extra blanket,
Putting an eye pillow on your eyes,
Just adjusting your position that little bit.
As you wiggle yourself into a cozy nest,
You can start by closing down your eyes or softening your gaze.
And feeling your body,
This beautiful body that your soul chose for you.
Scanning all the way up from your feet,
Feeling the toes and your socks perhaps,
Or touched by the air.
The soles of your feet,
The top of your feet,
To your ankles.
Up past your shins,
Your lower legs.
With this gentle awareness,
Bringing softness to every part of your body.
Moving up through the legs,
The thighs,
To your pelvis,
To your hip bones.
Breathing love and light to every bone,
Every muscle,
Every tissue,
Every cell.
Up into the digestive system,
Filling your entire spine with love.
Your organs,
Your ribs,
Up into your lungs,
Your heart.
Up to your shoulders,
Allowing this energy to flow down into your arms,
Your elbows,
Your wrists,
Your hands,
Your fingers.
And gently up past the throat,
Into your jaws,
Your cheeks,
Your nose,
Your eyes,
Your brain,
Your skull.
And with that filling your entire body with a softness.
Now let's take three really deep breaths.
Holding briefly at the top,
And then sighing out anything that no longer serves you.
Repeating that twice more.
And one final breath,
The deepest one yet.
And if you can,
If that feels right,
Placing a hand on your heart,
And starting to notice the beating of your chest,
Your heart,
Your center.
By gently placing a hand on our body,
We give a signal of safety to our nervous system.
So you may feel that you may be able to relax just that little bit deeper.
Your soul chose this human vessel to be born into our world.
Not all souls make it.
So it's a gift that you are here.
A true gift.
But you may not always be able to feel or see life can be challenging.
We move through emotions as things happen.
That's okay,
That's a part of this journey of life.
Yet ultimately,
I'm a firm believer that you,
Beautiful one,
Are here to bring your medicine,
To share your medicine with the world.
There's nothing you need to do for that.
It's your simple presence that is a gift in and of itself.
And then there's your smile,
The look from your eyes as you connect to someone.
A gentle handshake or hug,
Let alone your voice,
Your words,
Your song,
Your talents.
Through trauma and things that happened in our ancestral lines,
We can often get stuck in trying to solve all of it,
Healing all of it,
Which is beautiful and noble and also a part of our journey.
And yet we are whole exactly where we are right now.
So I invite you to imagine that you're sending love to yourself through the hand you've placed on your chest.
I visualize a beautiful light emitting,
Shining from my palms,
From my fingers,
All the way into my heart.
And that golden light is a nectar for my soul,
An acknowledgement of who I am,
Where yes,
People outside of us can love us.
Yet acknowledging ourselves,
Our divinity,
Is where it all begins.
That golden glow fills your entire heart space,
Continues to flow beyond,
Into your lungs,
All the way up to the top of your crown,
Down to your hands,
Your fingers,
And from your heart down to your stomach,
Your pancreas,
Your liver,
Your digestive system,
All the way down to the tips of your toes.
And as this golden light swirls through your being,
You're reminded of your place here in the world,
Your place in your family system.
You're here to take up your space,
To make your life a piece of art,
However you wish to fill that canvas in.
For some of us,
It's a quiet background journey,
For others it's in the spotlight,
Bright and colorful.
You get to decide,
You get to choose.
As your body is filled with this golden glow,
It starts to emanate from the limits of your body.
Brighter and brighter like a sun,
Your inner light starts to share itself with the world around you,
Like a beacon of love.
This light becomes stronger and stronger,
And though it might take some getting used to,
You feel bubbles of joy coming up in your belly,
In your gut.
Automatically a smile appears on your lips.
You feel more confident,
More you.
It's about being authentically you,
About cracking that joke,
About saying or doing that quirky thing that you love.
That's what you're here for.
We're not here to be put in some kind of societal mold.
We're here to be our true selves,
And when we do that,
We inspire others to do the same.
It becomes a beautiful upward spiral of inspiration and co-creation,
And that,
My love,
Is what the world needs.
So can you open up your heart?
Can you breathe that little bit deeper and allow this light to become even stronger?
This light is there to inspire others.
What I see in front of me is that we can,
If one candle is lit,
The next candle can be lit from that exact flame.
This is the ripple that you get to be when you allow your heart's light to shine more brightly.
Let's take three more big breaths to anchor in this light just that tiny,
Tiny bit further.
Expanding your chest,
Expanding your heart,
Opening up your shoulders,
Repeating those breaths twice more.
Slowly bringing your consciousness back to your physical body.
Noticing how your hand is still touching your chest.
Noticing the fabric between your chest and your hand.
Any sounds in your surroundings.
Gently starting to wiggle your hands and toes.
As we open up this source of light in ourselves,
It's well possible that we're reminded of passions or hobbies that we might have put aside.
A specific song that we love appears on the radio or in your playlist,
And other synchronicities may show up.
I invite you to listen,
To have your eyes and heart wide open.
This meditation is now coming to its completion.
You can stay here and relax for as long as you need.
We'll start to gently flicker your eyes open,
Coming back into your space.
To integrate this beautiful journey,
Drink plenty of water or herbal teas,
Get outside in nature if you can.
Maybe you wish to journal and jot down a few things that came to you.
But as always,
Follow your inner guidance.
I wish you a most beautiful,
Light-filled,
Joyful day,
Afternoon or evening.
Until we meet again.
