Welcome to the cosmic room meditation.
We're going to start in a comfortable seated position.
You can cross your legs if that is comfortable for you.
Otherwise,
You can be seated on the edge of the bed,
Leaning gently up against a wall.
Maybe you want to sit on a cushion on the floor,
Maybe you're sitting on a chair.
You're just going to gently take your right hand,
Your left pointer and your right thumb.
We're just going to alternate back and forth the thumb on the right nostril,
The pointer finger on the left,
As we oscillate the breath from one nostril to the other.
This is called alternate nostril breathing.
It is an ancient breathing technique that helps us balance our lunar and solar sides of the body,
Balance hormones.
I like to do it actually when I'm walking the dog sometime in the morning,
But you can just try it for a few breaths.
If it's a lot,
You can just breathe naturally after,
But if you find that it really helps you focus your attention on the breath and therefore free your mind,
It can be additionally powerful.
You can do it throughout the meditation.
This is a short meditation.
It's a poem that I wrote a few months ago.
I hope you enjoy.
I'll guide you through three sets of the alternative nostril breathing,
And then I will read the meditation and then close out the practice.
Here we go.
We're going to gently close off the right nostril with your thumb and inhale through the left nostril.
Gently hold at the top,
Switch fingers,
Exhale through the right nostril.
Inhale through the same right,
Hold,
Exhale to the opposite left.
Inhale left,
Gently hold,
Switch sides,
Exhale right,
Inhale right.
Gently hold as you switch sides,
Exhale left,
Inhale left,
Hold,
Exhale right.
Feel free to continue or just breathe naturally.
You can do this with your eyes open or closed,
Just tuning in.
Cosmic womb.
I am sovereign,
I am free,
I am me.
I am sovereign,
I am free,
I am me.
I am sovereign,
I am free,
I am me.
The seed of the universe is in me,
Cosmic indigo galactic stardust jelly coats and protects my infinite womb space.
Listen to what she is wanting to share with you,
Cosmic cradle of all creation.
Forgive me for doubting my own power to co-create and heal.
We are the lucky ones.
Tap in,
Tap in,
Tap in.
All you need is in,
All you need is within.
Dear deep cosmic womb,
Your gooey stardust lights up my soul.
We spin in divine timing with the moon.
I hold the whole universe,
Galaxy,
And Milky Way inside me,
Within.
Star seeds,
Epic grace,
And loving energy abides.
Deep love,
Deep release,
Deep love,
Deep release.
Let's take a deep breath in and out.
One more time,
Exhaling with the open mouth,
Inhaling,
Beautiful.
It feels aligned with you.
Just going to repeat the practice.
This time,
Feel free to have your hands holding yourself over your womb space and really connect with the energy that you feel coming from your womb.
Cosmic womb,
I am sovereign,
I am free,
I am me,
I am sovereign,
I am free,
I am me,
I am sovereign,
I am free,
I am me.
The seed of the universe is in me.
Cosmic indigo,
Galactic stardust jelly,
Coats and protects my infinite womb space.
Listen,
What is she wanting to share with you?
Cosmic cradle of all creation,
Forgive me for doubting my own power to co-create and heal.
We are the lucky ones.
Tap in,
Tap in,
Tap in.
All you need is within.
Dear deep cosmic womb,
Your gooey stardust lights up my soul.
We spin in divine timing with the moon.
I hold the whole universe,
Galaxy,
And Milky Way within.
Star seeds,
Epic grace,
And loving energy abides.
Deep love,
Deep release,
Deep love,
Deep release.
Namaste.
