Welcome friends.
I'm Meg Burton-Tedman and I'm so grateful you're here.
I invite you to position yourself comfortably either seated or laying down.
And let's begin with some deep cleansing breaths.
As best you can,
Breathe in deeply through your nose and then breathe out completely through your mouth.
With each breath,
Allow your spine to lengthen a little bit more to make additional space for the fresh air and fresh energy to flow.
On your inhale,
Feel your belly rise.
And on your exhale,
Feel your belly descend.
Each breath in is an opportunity to fill yourself with fresh energy.
And each breath out is an opportunity to release.
You may even sigh on your exhale to release more completely.
Let this next breath be your deepest one yet today.
Deep breath in through your nose,
Followed by an even deeper breath out your mouth.
Inhale again and as you exhale,
Gently unclench your jaw,
Relax your shoulders away from your ears,
Feel tension leaving your body.
Take a few more rounds of conscious deep cleansing breaths.
Now continue to breathe at your own pace.
And I invite you to soften or close your eyes.
If you haven't done so already.
Visualize a sphere of white light surrounding your entire body.
This light feels peaceful and safe.
Allow it to surround you completely.
With each breath,
This light begins to glow more and more brightly.
As it does so,
Imagine yourself gradually rising up into the sky in the safety of this sphere of light.
Use your imagination and allow yourself to journey into the sky.
Continuing through the clouds and out into space.
Keep breathing and travel upwards at your own pace.
Continue to rise until you can see all of planet Earth below you.
Once you're high enough,
Look back on the planet and bask in the sensation of calmness and peace as you sit safely in space.
Take a moment to enjoy the sense of quiet.
Let's continue to journey deeper into this cosmos.
You are surrounded by an infinite number of beautiful celestial bodies.
Stars and planets stretch out for billions of light years in all directions around you.
You are supported by that sphere of light as you gaze at the celestial scenes surrounding you.
Continue to breathe and use your imagination to enjoy the feeling of gazing at the earth below you and moving about the universe around you.
I'll pause for a moment in order for you to fully experience and enjoy the image you've created in your mind.
Take one more look around in your mind's eye at the amazing celestial scene around you.
Allow this practice to be a gift and a reminder.
We are all connected,
Regardless of where we are located on this relatively small rock spinning in space.
And while we are part of a vast universe,
We each play a special role in creating this reality on earth.
We each matter.
We are each worthy.
And we are each here for an important reason.
Take another deep cleansing breath.
And gently wiggle your fingers and toes.
Allowing that movement to slowly bring you back to this place and time,
Bringing you back feeling connected,
Relaxed,
And present.
From my heart to yours,
Sending you so much love and light.
