RENEW: Spring Inspiration & Intention

Hey there,

This is Jen with Laughing Lotus Wellness.

Welcome to our meditation practice.

And I welcome you into our Renew Spring Inspiration and Intention meditation.

Taking you into that comfortable position,

Seated or lying down.

And just going inward now,

Checking for the state of your mind.

Taking note of any sensations,

Feelings,

Thoughts,

And boxing them up and just placing them outside your space for the time and meditation.

Again,

Going deeper into that breath,

Finding that even and fluid breath here.

Even inhales and exhales.

Making any final adjustments to your props,

Clothing,

Or body for the greatest amount of comfort in our meditation today.

And as always,

You can create your own intention or sankalpa for practice,

Or you can plant the seed of this thought using my words as your words if they resonate for you.

I am grateful to renew my intentions,

Fueled by my inspiration to live more fully into my personal agreements and highest good.

I am grateful to renew my intentions fueled by my inspiration to live more fully into my personal agreements and highest good.

I am grateful to renew my intentions fueled by my inspiration to live more fully into my personal agreements and highest good.

And so first we begin to slow the breath,

Sensing the fluid breath moving in and out of our lungs,

In and out of the nostrils,

Just sensing the physical body.

Again,

I invite you to take a moment here to know where you might be holding or gripping just with curiosity,

And then breathe into those tender spaces and give them permission to let go for the time of this meditation.

They are just waiting for your invitation.

Those parts that are gripping feel like they are protecting us.

They feel like they have a duty.

And we have been given this opportunity to give them some time off just to allow us to be for this time together in sacred space.

Relaxing and releasing the space across the forehead,

Outside of the eyes,

The jaw,

Again dropping that tongue from the roof of the mouth.

Relaxing and releasing the shoulders and checking the breath,

Plugging in for this moment,

Inviting in curiosity,

And just notice the quality of the breath and how the breath is flowing here.

Is it easy and fluid,

Halting,

Or you might even notice that you are holding your breath.

And with loving curiosity,

Just go ahead and give that space that is trying to protect you permission.

Even our breath will want to protect us.

And give it permission,

But it's okay.

Releasing into all the spaces and as you breathe,

Send that breath into all the spaces of the body,

Into every cell,

And giving permission to just let go.

Inhaling in,

I am.

Exhaling out,

Letting go.

Inhaling in,

I am.

Exhaling out,

Letting go.

I invite you to see yourself in a beautiful garden.

Imagining that this is a garden you have begun to create with your new agreements.

And as you look around and see the flowers beginning to bloom,

New shoots around you growing up through the earth.

The sun is shining and you can feel the warmth on your crown and your shoulders.

You can hear the birds sing and smell the soil.

You can smell the grass and as you sit on the earth,

I invite you to run your hands through the new grass.

Sensing the earth beneath you rising up to support you.

Renewing the earth and you.

And sensing the vibration,

The energy of renewal that Mother Earth is creating for us.

As we begin our journey today,

I invite you to return to that one agreement for today,

One area of renewal.

A belief that might be a struggle.

And in your mind,

You can see the seed right behind the back of your eyes in that third eye space.

There is a seed and it is small and appears to need nutrients,

Water,

Sunlight.

And without judgment,

We notice the seed and we know it is our thought that is struggling to grow.

Because it is not receiving new intention and inspiration.

Taking that one seed in your mind and pulling that along the channel of light that runs the length of our spines.

We pull that seed down into the heart.

We recognize that the mind has struggled to nurture it,

So we will love it into existence.

We can sense that small energy moving down and traveling from the forehead space down through the throat,

Down into the chest.

And in that space,

We pause,

We take a moment to have compassion.

The seed is attached to a story from our life that is not serving us right now.

Imagine for a moment that the seed is a small child who needs loving kindness,

Compassion and sweetness.

And for a moment in your mind,

Imagine surrounding that seed and sweet healing green light and vibration.

As if it was a hug surrounding that seed and sweetness.

And as we do,

That seed begins to look fuller,

More vital and we pause here to attach new intention of the seed to feed it.

What thought agreement can we transform into an intention for ourselves that will help us shift?

Pausing here to take time to create your intention.

It might sound something like,

Sweet seed,

I see how you want to grow,

But how you need love and nurturing.

Our new belief in agreement,

I am transforming and whatever your agreement is for myself,

My heart and my journey.

So again,

That statement is I am transforming your agreement for myself,

My heart and my journey.

And as you pause here with the breath,

Facilitating that new intention for yourself.

Deeply plugging into the vibration of healing.

Now that old story or seed,

Giving it new life,

Renewing and revitalizing belief or thought for ourselves.

And as you breathe,

Discover your new intention created in the healing of your agreement.

Now that you have this beautiful seed and incredible intention,

We will breathe life into that seed.

Imagine taking that seed in your heart space and internally sending all the breath into and out of that seed.

Shining right in the center of your chest and see the breath expand.

As you inhale and exhale,

Feeling the renewal flooding every cell and those cells flooding the entire body and the entire soul.

Breathing here into that seed,

Allowing that breath to expand and feeling that healing light and energy permeate through all of the areas of your body.

Pulling in sweetness to that heart space and sending it to every direction in every corner of your being.

Now I invite you with your breath to step into that new agreement.

And it might sound something like this on an inhale.

I am living my new agreement.

Exhaling out your agreement statement.

Inhaling in.

I am living my new agreement.

Exhaling out whatever your statement is.

Inhaling in.

Living that agreement.

Exhaling out whatever yours is.

Inviting that thought for just a few breaths here.

Setting that story,

Setting that new intention and energy into your soul with each breath.

Using that seed as a brain of sorts,

Renegotiating the stories and intentions.

And now we call forward a form of inspiration.

It could be your purpose,

A relationship,

Love,

Kindness,

Transformation.

As we look at that inspiration,

We might give it a color,

A smell,

A taste,

Texture,

Maybe even a sound.

Calling that up in your mind,

But seeing it in the palms of your hands,

Out in front of you,

Where you can see it and feel it and touch it.

And feeling the warmth of that inspiration,

The vibration of it,

The energy.

It might be a buzzing or a tingling warmth,

It has power.

And then taking that inspiration and sweetly placing it around the seed in that heart space.

Much like we did earlier with that beautiful,

Energetic healing light as a hug.

And gently like soil,

We place that inspiration and magic all around the seed until we can no longer see the seed.

But know that it is surrounded and inspiration to elevate and renew it into growth and beauty.

Just noticing that and sensing what that feels like to have surrounded your new intention,

Your new agreement and beauty,

Just breathing here.

And again,

Planting the seed of this thought using my words as your words if they resonate.

I'm grateful to renew my intentions,

Fueled by my inspiration to live more fully into my personal agreements and highest good.

I am grateful to renew my intentions fueled by my inspiration to live more fully into my personal agreements and highest good.

I'm grateful to renew my intentions fueled by my inspiration to live more fully into my personal agreements and highest good.

And now slowly,

Gently allowing the body to shift from our time and meditation and journey into the sweetness of your heart,

Back onto the earth,

Back into our physical spaces.

Paying attention to how you are feeling right now,

Just noticing,

Just sensing what transformation,

Renewal and shifts have taken place,

How you might be feeling in this moment when you look at where you were before you started our meditation today.

And now placing that attention and awareness to your breathing and your body,

Your breathing and your body,

The breath and the body.

And slowly and gently placing the hands on a carpet or blanket,

Beginning to rub the thumb across the ends of the fingertips,

Just placing some sensation on the fingers,

The palms,

The hands.

Again,

Gently taking a gentle approach to coming out of that beautiful sacred space,

No rush.

Pause for a moment,

Considering how you will take this felt sense of renewing your personal agreement into something beautiful,

Like your intention to feel the inspiration is now steeped in what that looks and feels like for you.

As we gently close our practice,

I'm grateful for our time together today and love and sense the beauty and magic that you are all cultivating and renewing inside your souls.

I invite you to bring your hands together in prayer position at heart center.

That feels like it resonates for you.

And I just want to sign off with the idea that the inspiration in me honors the inspiration,

All of you making us one in renewal.

From a place of love,

Enlightened blessings.

Namaste.

Drop your chin to your chest.

Slowly open the eyes and come back into the space.

Thank you so much for joining me in this meditation.

Until next time,

Blessings,

Love and light on your journey.
