Welcome,
This is Nathalie.
This meditation invites you to harmonize the two vital forces within you,
The feminine and the masculine.
Both live inside every human being.
The feminine is receptive,
Flowing,
Intuitive.
The masculine is focused,
Stable,
And clear.
When they move together in balance,
You feel grounded,
Creative,
And whole.
Find a comfortable seat.
Let your shoulders drop.
Rest your hands on your thighs or in your lap.
Gently close your eyes.
Notice your breath.
Take a deep breath in through the nose,
And let it go completely.
And another deep breath in through the nose,
And exhale softly through the mouth.
Feel how every exhale allows you to settle a little deeper.
Let the ground beneath you hold your weight.
You are supported.
With each breath,
Arrive more fully in this moment.
Inhale through your nose,
And exhale softly through your mouth.
Settle into your body right here,
Right now.
Now,
Bring your awareness to the left side of your body,
From your left foot up the leg,
The hip,
The side of your waist,
Your left chest,
Shoulder,
Hand,
And left side of your face.
Simply notice how this side feels without judging.
Maybe it's softer,
Cooler,
More fluid.
This is the feminine side,
The energy of receiving,
Feeling,
Being.
Breathe gently into this left side.
Imagine the air you are inhaling as a silver light flowing from your nostrils into the left side of your body and through it.
Feel the air around you as if it were a soft,
Cool,
Calm,
Soft.
Then move your awareness to the right side of your body.
Feel the right foot,
The side of your waist,
Shoulder,
Hand,
And left side of your face.
Now,
Breathe into your right side.
Imagine golden light traveling through it,
Bright,
Strong,
Centered.
Both sides are essential.
Both serve you.
And now,
Feel them together,
Left and right side,
Feminine and masculine.
As you breathe,
Draw both energies toward your heart.
See the silver and gold meeting there,
Blending into a soft,
Radiant glow,
Harmony within.
Let's deepen this balance through the breath.
Bring your right hand in front of your face.
Place your index and middle finger between your eyebrows.
Gently close your right nostril with your thumb.
Inhale through the left nostril.
Now close the left nostril with your ring finger.
Release the thumb and exhale through the right.
Then inhale through the right.
Release the ring finger and close the right nostril with the thumb.
Exhale through the left.
Continue in this rhythm.
Inhale left,
Exhale right.
Inhale right,
Exhale left.
Inhale left,
Exhale right.
Inhale right,
Exhale left.
Left in,
Feminine receiving.
Right out,
Masculine releasing.
Right in,
Masculine clarity.
Left out,
Feminine surrender.
Left in,
Slow receptive.
Right out,
Clear,
Steady releasing.
Right in,
Focused,
Warm.
Left out,
Soft,
Flowing,
Letting go.
Continue like this for a few more cycles.
If you like,
Visualize silver and gold light circling through you,
Like moon and sun in gentle harmony.
Now release the hand and breathe through both nostrils again.
Feel your whole body,
Both sides at once.
Left and right.
Receiving and doing.
Softness and strength.
Breathe into your heart.
Sense how these two energies coexist,
Not in opposition,
But in union.
Inhale deeply and exhale slowly.
Notice how balanced you feel,
Calm,
Relaxed.
Centered,
Whole.
If you wish,
Place one hand on your heart and one on your belly.
Remember both energies live within you.
You can rest and you can rise.
You can flow and you can lead.
You can be gentle and powerful,
All at once.
Take one last deep breath in and sigh it out with ease.
Thank yourself for creating this moment of harmony.
Carry the sense of balance into your day,
Into your words,
Your choices,
Your energy.
Namaste.
