Harvest: The Gifts Of Your Soul

Hey there,

This is Jen with Laughing Lotus Wellness.

Welcome to our meditation practice.

Welcome in to our meditation,

Harvest the Gifts of Your Soul.

Invite you to take a comfortable seat or come to lie down.

There's going to be a little bit of rotation of consciousness like a yoga nidra,

So sometimes laying down is just a little bit nicer and juicier for your meditation,

But you pick what feels best for you today.

As always,

I invite you to close your eyes or soften your gaze.

Again,

Whatever is going to feel best for your body,

Your mind and your soul,

Whatever is best for you today.

And beginning to deepen and lengthen the breath.

I'm going to invite you to practice nostril only breathing,

If you can.

So a really nice fluid,

Extended inhale,

And then an extended and beautiful exhale and release.

And do a couple more of those,

Just that really inviting the breath in,

Inviting the body to begin to sink and settle and come into a place of peace and readiness to receive the meditation.

And making any adjustments to your clothing,

Your props,

Your body,

Whatever is going to allow you to feel just a little bit more comfortable.

And we begin our practice by setting the tone,

Using an intention or a sankhopa,

Creating your own or borrowing mine and planting the seeds of this thought using my words as your words if they resonate.

I am grateful to harvest my unique gifts and talents that support living into my purpose.

I am grateful to harvest my unique gifts and talents that support living into my purpose.

I am grateful to harvest my unique gifts and talents that support living into my purpose.

And I invite you into our journey by beginning with a soul cleanse to purify as we move our way into our experience in meditation.

Imagine that you are deeply rooted through the feet,

Either seated or standing.

If you're seated,

Just noticing that anchor to the earth,

You're standing or have your feet on the floor just where your feet meet the earth.

In ruby red roots,

Anchoring you to the earth as the roots wind down deep into the earth's core,

Connected to the very center of the earth.

I'm beginning to imagine a vortex of energy swirling and moving up and around the feet or seat as it sweeps upward taking anything no longer serving you up with it.

And taking a moment here to become clear about what you need and want to release.

Some patience,

Fear,

Struggle,

Pain,

Overwhelm,

The mind being busy and letting this all rise up and out of your soul,

Mind and body.

This is vortex works its way up and sensing the release,

The lightning of your body as the human struggles rise up and out.

Really releasing and sensing them the body.

An easy breath here,

Even and steady inhales and exhales.

Releasing what no longer serves.

And if you're visual,

You might imagine the things releasing.

Sometimes people imagine a darkness being released.

You can see images,

Sounds,

Sensations.

Releasing that into the ether.

And now a bright beam of light,

Golden and radiant,

Flows in through the crown and fills the space with healing vibration,

That healing light in the crown,

The crown,

The crown.

Healing light of awareness filling the crown.

That healing light flows down into the face and the head,

The whole head filled with healing light of awareness.

The whole crown and head filled with the healing light of awareness.

Now that healing energy flows down to the neck,

Over the shoulders,

Healing light of awareness in the crown,

Head and flowing into the shoulders,

Placing that healing light in the right shoulder and arm and the left shoulder and arm,

Right shoulder and arm and the left shoulder and arm.

Healing light in the right and left shoulders and arms.

And now imagine that light of awareness in the right hand and then the left hand,

In the right and the left.

And you might imagine juggling that light of energy from the right hand to the left and to the right hand and the left.

And now that healing energetic light is in both hands.

And bringing awareness now,

That healing energy in the front of the chest and then the upper back.

Light of awareness and healing in the front of the chest and the upper back.

The whole of the chest and the upper back encased in healing light of awareness.

The whole chest and upper back lit in radiant light.

And anchoring into that breath,

Easy,

Fluid inhales and exhales.

And now that energetic healing light flowing into the mid torso and belly.

The mid torso and belly filled with energetic light.

Placing the healing light of awareness in the mid torso and belly.

Rooted and grounded through the breath.

Sensing that healing light in the mid torso and belly.

Now placing that healing light of awareness in the mid and low back.

The mid and low back lit in radiant healing light.

Leaving the entire torso of the body lit in healing energy,

Gold light filling the entire torso.

Beautiful,

Warm,

Energetic light.

The whole torso lit in light.

And now inviting that healing light of awareness to flow down into the hips.

The right hip and the left hip.

The right hip and the left hip.

The right and the left.

The entire pelvis lit in radiant light.

Hips and pelvis lit in radiant light.

And imagining that energy flowing in through the crown,

Neck,

Shoulders,

Arms,

Hands,

Chest and back.

Torso and belly into the hips.

And imagining the sensation of that light flowing down to the legs.

Healing light of awareness in the fronts and backs of the upper legs.

Right and left.

Right and left.

As you breathe here,

Anchored and grounded through the breath.

Breathing and exhaling.

And now that healing light of awareness flows into the knees.

Golden,

Radiant light flowing into the knees.

Sensing the sensation left behind in the wake of this beautiful radiant light.

Clarity of lightness and healing,

Warmth,

Vibration.

Now filling the knees and every space that the healing light has touched.

The right knee and the left knee.

The right knee and the left knee.

Both knees lit in golden radiant light.

Now that healing light is flowing down from the knees into the lower legs.

Filling the lower legs,

Right and left,

Golden healing light of awareness.

The lower right leg and the lower left leg.

The right leg and the left leg.

And both lower legs lit in radiant light.

And tapping into that healing vibration flowing in through the crown.

Shoulders,

Arms,

Hands,

Chest,

Back,

Mid-belly,

Pelvis and hips.

All the way into the upper legs,

Knees,

Lower legs.

And now flowing into the feet.

Healing light of awareness,

Life force energy flowing into the feet.

Using that vibration,

Anchoring through the breath.

Healing light of awareness filling the right and left foot.

The right and the left.

And both feet lit in awareness as that sensation and vibration flows all the way out the ends of the toes.

Placing the healing light of awareness now in the whole body.

The whole body,

Lift in beautiful warm healing golden light.

Vibrating energy lit in beautiful radiant light.

Vibration of warmth,

Movement,

Breath,

Energy flowing from head to toe.

Feeling here the life force energy,

Just noticing that energy flowing.

I invite you to imagine that you've come to stand in a beautiful garden before you as a mystical tree.

And like anything you've ever seen,

It is so tall you cannot see the top.

Huge roots diving deep down into the earth.

It is clear that this tree is very old and very wise.

The color of this tree is beautiful gold with leaves of every color hanging on long flowing branches.

This is a sacred tree of life.

Imagine a sacred tree in your mind and the sense of wonder connected to it.

As you experience the awe of this tree,

A door begins to materialize and it beckons you to walk through to begin a journey.

Imagine a series of steps that wind their way up and around the inside of this vast tree.

And you can float up them around and around sensing the energy of your human experience begin to lighten as you move upward.

And to notice the top of the tree is opening up and you can see the vastness of space.

Full of beautiful stars.

And as you come to a landing,

There is a beautiful ornate gondola waiting you.

And taking a seat,

You can watch as you are moving with this gentle upward motion through the stars and the cosmos just delighting in the beauty.

And after some time,

You arrive and see another landing and the gondola comes to stillness,

The doors whoosh open and you exit.

Before you is a golden walkway that shines like the sun.

Around you,

A crystalline vision.

The trees,

Flowers and the building before you appear to be delicate,

Almost transparent and opalescent as if the colors are dancing upon them and almost as if it is the energy of each of these things that is actually visible.

Moving all of that in,

The building before you is a grand structure with big steps leading up to two beautiful ornate doors of a beautiful amethyst color.

The building almost alive.

The doors open and you flow up the steps and there is a beautiful entrance with two sets of steps that wind up along either side to an upper landing.

And before you is another set of doors,

Wide open and a magnetic force pulls you forward and into a ballroom of sorts.

The room is round and the sensation is celebratory.

A golden chair is seated in the center of the room and you know that this is where you are meant to be seated in this sacred space.

Taking a seat in this beautiful room,

You hear two doors open on either side of the space in back of you and a series of energies flowed into the room and create a circle around you.

There is an angelic and holy sense to these energies,

Each of them alight and also somehow just slightly different in the way that they shine or the colors that are prominent.

Here too,

It is as if you are experiencing the pure energy of the beings in this space.

A guide walks in and forward holding a gift,

Beautifully wrapped and shining,

Placing it before you on the ground.

The being backs away into the line of energy and the community surrounding you is humming in enthusiasm,

Reaching out to touch the gift and the colored outside falls away to reveal a velvet lined box and yet you see nothing inside.

Another guide steps forward and says,

This is your human struggle to trust what is within.

It is your destiny to see with your heart,

Intuition and connection to the mystery to reveal it.

Each person who stands in this space has to uncover their own gifts and talents.

This is your invitation to open your third eye space,

To throw open your heart and to open a space in the crown of your head so that the knowing can be seen.

And with this having been said,

The guide steps back into the circle,

Slowing the breath and closing the outer eyes,

You focus on being able to see from within.

Begin to imagine,

Recall the compliments you've received,

The things that people have shared with you about how you shine your light into the world.

You people say things like you're funny,

Smart,

Relatable,

Witty,

Creative,

Loving,

Compassionate,

Driven,

Passionate.

Causing here with the breath,

Just taking in the compliments you've received.

And now you begin to see the ways that you are unique,

The talents that are individual to you.

Perhaps it's how you connect with others,

How you create music or art,

Your innate ability to do math and science to create a safer world for others.

Taking time here,

Expanding the awareness as you take in all the gifts and talents that you have been granted in this life,

Really sensing them with your soul here as you breathe.

Thank you.

And now harvesting those gifts,

Placing them in a beautiful box before you.

And really being able to see them,

Having opened up that mind,

Body,

And spirit.

And a guide floats forward and offers,

This gift is now your memory.

Your ability to know your gifts,

So that when you forget in your human experience,

That you may return here anytime to remember what it is that makes you who you are.

That gives you a unique energy signature in the world.

And we invite you here to notice the vibration of that signature.

Giving it a color,

Texture,

Taste,

Sound,

And sensation to take with you.

Pausing here with the breath to just notice that unique energy signature.

And yet another guide steps forward,

Picking up the gift,

And as if by magic shrinks the box,

Do a very small one inch cube,

And ask for permission to place this gift where it will be of the most service to you and the world.

Not in an agreement,

The guide backs away,

And as they do,

You begin to see the walls of this grand room open up,

And they are covered in these small gift boxes in every imaginable color,

Lovingly placed in small vaults built in the walls,

Honoring each spiritual energetic being.

And as you take this in,

The hum of the beings rises and sounds as if a choir is singing.

There is so much celebration in this place for you and for all the other lights.

You can sense the energy and vibration in this magical space.

It is all about harvesting the goodness that is within each soul.

And now you can sense the expanded awareness of what it is like as a whole when they can be seen and felt together.

It is a reminder of what we are capable of creating when we join together with all of our gifts.

Sensing here that you have made a profound connection,

Feeling ready to do the big work for you,

That you have been guided by beings that are always supporting you,

And a sense of this group of sacred beings is always walking the journey with you.

They are here to see you step fully into your greatness,

Your gifts and talents,

Into connecting to the highest good and purpose of your being so that you will take up space to live fully into your own good for yourself and the world.

Really feeling that you have a unique role to play and have been gifted the ability to step outside of your comfort zone to trust the intuition and guidance as you make your own impact in the world around you.

And bowing your head in gratitude,

Making your way slowly as the circle parts to make space for you,

Back out through the building,

Down the steps,

The golden pathway lit with the sunshine,

Returning to the gondola and sliding through the early morning sky and seeing the sun begin to rise on the horizon as shades of yellow,

Orange,

Pink and purple greet you,

Just enjoying the view as you return down to the top of the tree.

Once again exiting that gondola,

Flowing down the steps of the inside of the tree,

Flowing your way down around and around the inside of that beautiful tree,

Exiting out the door and back into the lush garden.

Sitting here feeling a little heady as though you are floating,

As if invisible hands are holding you up,

Taking this sense of the unseen support you've always had with you as you move into the sacred garden and journey back into the earth body.

Once again returning to that intention or sankopa for practice,

Using my words as your words if they resonate,

I am grateful to harvest my unique gifts and talents that support living into my purpose.

I'm grateful to harvest my unique gifts and talents that support living into my purpose.

I am grateful to harvest my unique gifts and talents that support living into my purpose.

In returning to that earth body,

Feeling the sense of muscles and bones and breath rooting you in the physical plane,

Sending out the awareness to the space that you're in,

Sensing the floor and ceiling,

Walls,

Doors,

Windows,

Whatever's around you,

Taking that in,

Paying attention to how you are feeling right now,

Just noticing the experience,

The celebration of your goodness,

The gifts that you harvest,

Bringing awareness to the breath in the body as it expands the chest,

Ribs and belly,

Bringing in that vital life force energy.

Getting into the rough of the thumbs across the fingertips,

Wiggling fingers and toes,

Creating some sensation in your hands by rubbing your hands together,

Creating some warmth,

Placing one or both hands in the heart,

Tapping in once more here in gratitude for the journey and connection.

You've created the celebration you've experienced and the guides that you met.

Pausing for a moment,

Considering how you will take this felt sense of harvesting your gifts,

What it is like to know your goodness and see what it can do in the world.

As we gently close our practice,

I encourage you to take this sense of joy and celebration with you.

If it resonates for you,

Bringing your hands to a prayer position at heart center as we close our practice and time together.

The gifts and goodness in me honors the gifts and goodness in all of you.

As we harvest our joy and celebration and goodness,

We can create individually in an expansive level from a place of love and light.

Namaste.

Namaste.
