Hello and welcome to this guided meditation to allow you to attune to the qualities of the goddess Lakshmi.
Lakshmi is associated with the qualities of abundance,
Of wealth,
Fertility and beauty and this meditation allows you to not only tune into that of material abundance but that that is more subtle as well,
The abundance that is found within.
So let's come to a seated position ensuring that the spine is tall and relaxed so using any props that you may need and that you find useful.
Taking a moment to settle in as you close your eyes and we'll begin with three deep breaths.
Breathing in through the nose filling the lungs,
The chest,
The ribs,
The belly and then opening the mouth exhale completely.
Inhale deeply feeling fresh fresh life force flowing in through the nostrils and exhaling completely.
Inhaling deeply inviting a sense of light spaciousness and expansion.
Exhaling completely feeling any weight on the shoulders begin to dissolve and gently bringing your awareness back to the subtlety of your breath allowing it to flow in its own rhythm.
Noticing any tension that you may be holding within the body,
Any gripping,
Any holding on that you can soften now allowing the physical body to soften and release its grip.
As you now envision a beautiful lotus pond before you that is serene and calm and you see an abundance of pink lotus flowers stretching out before you.
You notice the sweet scent upon the air,
The comforting temperature of the air around you and as you take a seat beside this beautiful lotus pond you see in the center a golden lotus rising.
Rising from the depths and sat within the center of this golden lotus is the goddess Lakshmi and you sense her beauty,
Her warmth,
The magnetic quality that she has.
She is dressed in gold and pink and you see her aura illuminated lighting up all that surrounds her and here you sit absorbing all of those qualities that she has.
Feeling them awaken within you,
That of abundance,
Of love,
Beauty,
Wealth and health and you feel those qualities begin to absorb deeper into every cell of your being as you chant the bija mantra of Lakshmi that is Shreem.
Silently in your mind repeating the mantra Shreem,
Shreem,
Shreem.
With each repetition you feel that sense of contentment,
Of abundance,
Love,
Beauty,
Wealth grow stronger and you feel your own aura illuminated,
Illuminating all that surrounds you.
With each repetition of the mantra Shreem and I invite you now to reflect on the areas of your life where you seek more abundance.
Here in Lakshmi's presence you open yourself up to receive,
Opening yourself up to receive all,
All that you desire.
Letting go of the mantra as you now before Lakshmi bestow gratitude upon her,
All that you do have.
For gratitude attracts more abundance and placing one hand over your heart,
The other on top.
Gently bowing your head towards your heart as you bow with love,
With kindness,
With gratitude and slowly become more aware of the surroundings,
The room around you,
The seat beneath you.
Feeling a gentle smile on your face and your heart in your belly as you take a deeper breath in and a beautiful long exhale out.
Bring your palms together,
Begin to create some heat and warmth as you rub your palms together.
And when you feel the heat gathering between your palms,
Place them gently over the eyes,
Gently awakening the senses.
And slowly linking your eyes open to the darkness of your palms,
Spreading the fingers to let in more light,
And one at a time releasing the hands back down to your lap.
From my heart to yours,
Thank you for taking this time to meditate with me today.
My name is Lisa,
Have a beautiful day.
