Hello and welcome to this grounding meditation.
Taking a deep breath in through the nose and with the exhale closing the eyes,
Feeling the heaviness of the eyelids,
The transition into this practice,
This feeling of going home and starting to bring the awareness to your lips,
Noticing how they are held together in this moment and starting to turn them upwards into a smile,
A beautiful smile,
A smile that says I am here now,
I have arrived,
I am alive.
With this smile starting to relax and release,
Dropping the weight of whatever you are carrying or holding,
There is nothing to hold in this moment.
You can release and let go,
Softening and smoothing the face,
Releasing the shoulders,
Letting the arms and legs relax and be heavy,
Placing the hands on the belly and softening with this touch,
Not holding or gripping,
Letting the belly be at ease,
Feeling the movement of the breath here,
With every breath releasing a bit more,
Softening and letting go just a bit more,
Inhaling through the nose and slowly exhaling out of the mouth,
Inhale and exhale,
Breathing in and breathing out,
Deep breath in and a long slow breath out,
Taking one more full breath in and the slowest exhale out,
Letting it stretch and take up space,
Continuing to breathe with ease and purpose,
What a gift it is to breathe today,
Moving the hands to the heart space,
Feeling the beating of your heart,
What a gift it is to be alive today,
Releasing the hands and allowing the palms to face upwards,
A universal sign that you are ready to receive in this moment,
We spend so much of our time focusing on what we would like to receive,
What comes next,
But what is now?
This beautiful mind that allows you to hear my words and process them with ease,
The body that holds you and supports you every single day,
The soul that has been gifted to you with a unique purpose on this planet,
This is now,
There is a card in Tarot called temperance,
She stands with one foot in the water and one on land,
In her hands she holds two cups and she's mixing them,
As she mixes them they become one,
This is a card of balance,
Of harmony,
In life we focus on being happy when this happens,
Success when we receive this,
When we get there,
Manifestations,
Dreams are an important part of expanding into our potential,
But if we live in the waiting,
Are we living in the now with a feeling of scarcity,
Temperance in all her wisdom reminds us that there must be both,
Balance,
A blending of the present and the future,
To create something truly beautiful,
Dropping into this and thinking about what you have now,
The abundance in your life today,
Maybe it's your health or your mind,
Love and support in your life,
Time or resources,
An abundance of nature,
Magic,
Thinking about this for a moment,
Imagining in your open palms that you're holding a cup in the right hand and with this gratitude for the abundance in your life,
You can feel this cup begin to get heavier,
Full,
More and more abundant,
Saying thank you for all that I have,
Thank you for all that I am,
Thank you,
And now in the left hand sensing an empty cup waiting to be filled,
Giving yourself space in this moment to fill it with dreams and manifestations,
Visions of the future from a place of excitement rather than need or lack,
I'll be quiet as you reflect,
Noticing that this cup has filled equally as much as the cup in your right hand,
Powerful,
Heavy with potential and possibility,
Imagine before you that there is a stream,
A beautiful free-flowing stream of water,
Clear and pristine,
The sound calm and peaceful with love pouring both cups now into this stream,
Mixing them to create balance within you,
Harmony as you blend your appreciation with your desires,
Gratitude with excitement,
Seeing the cups pour into this stream,
Mixing and becoming one,
Taking a deep breath in,
Feeling this balance and harmony and exhaling slowly out of the mouth,
Releasing that balance into the universe,
Temperance,
Temperance,
Feeling grounded in this energy of harmony,
Aligned,
Bringing the palms together in prayer position for our final closing,
May you be well,
May you have the love and light of support around you,
And may you be peaceful and share that peace with the world,
Thank you for this practice.
