Greetings.
Welcome to this Mother's Canopy Protection Meditation.
This practice was designed to help soothe your mind and heart as your child goes into the world.
This is a practice for mothers of children,
Teenagers and adults of all ages and can be done at any time.
This practice can also be done for anyone parenting or re-parenting their inner child.
It may be helpful to do this before bed as a visualization prayer or before your day begins.
The strength of a mother's love and protection is powerful beyond measure.
And this meditation can help fortify that knowing within you.
Let's begin.
Start by finding a comfortable seated position.
Relax your shoulders.
Release your jaw.
And if it is comfortable.
Gently blink the eyes closed.
Take a deep breath in through the nose.
And out from the mouth.
Take another deep breath in.
And out.
Take one last deep breath.
And let it go.
Now I invite you to visualize a golden shield.
Bubble or blanket.
Enveloping your entire body.
And visualize that blanket,
Shield,
Or bubble extending over your child or children.
This golden shield is vibrant.
And embedded with your warmth and unconditional love.
Love is the strongest force in the entire universe.
There's no force that can penetrate,
Damage,
Or destroy this shield.
The golden canopy can extend any distance.
And thus no matter how far you are away from your child.
The canopy is ever-present and felt.
Take a deep breath in.
And as you breathe out,
Visualize giving your child a big,
Warm hug beneath that golden canopy.
Feel the love and warmth in your heart extending to theirs.
Take another deep breath in.
And completely exhale out from the mouth.
On your next deep breath in.
Visualize the warmth and loving embrace of that hug from your child.
Feel the power of your love and your child's love strengthen that golden canopy.
Take a deep breath in.
And breathe out.
Take a deep breath in.
And breathe out.
Feel into your heart space and notice what's there with a gentle awareness.
Breathe in.
And breathe out.
Thank you for practicing this meditation and visualization with me.
You can practice this meditation as many times as you'd like,
Whenever you'd like.
I'm sending you lots of love,
Peace,
And blessings.
