Cut Cords Of Attachment From A Parent Sleep Meditation

Cut cords of attachment from a parent while you sleep for emotional healing and freedom.

Welcome I'm Nikki Sutton.

Please refrain from listening while driving or doing anything else.

This sleep meditation is here to gently help you release any emotional hold or energetic attachment to a parent,

Whether your mother or father or step parent,

In a safe and loving way.

This isn't about removing love or erasing connection,

But instead relieving the emotional charge,

Reclaiming your energy and creating space for greater peace within.

You'll be gently guided through soothing visualizations,

Deep healing and loving support as you drift into restful sleep.

And as you find yourself drifting off into slumber,

That's perfectly okay,

Because your subconscious mind is always listening,

Even during sleep,

When the healing is still happening.

So now,

Take a moment to make yourself super comfortable,

Lying down,

Supported and completely at ease.

Allow your eyes to gently close if they're not already.

They grow heavy and close now,

And begin to settle your body into stillness.

Let your muscles soften one by one,

From your face and shoulders.

Down through your chest,

Arms and legs.

With every breath you can feel yourself becoming more relaxed,

More present,

More peaceful,

Ready to be gently guided into sleep.

So,

Sense now that you're in a beautiful garden,

Lying on a comfortable,

Cushioned lounge chair.

This is your private sanctuary,

A place of peace,

Light and deep restoration.

Around you,

The garden is alive with beautiful nature,

Trees sway lightly in the breeze,

Flowers bloom in calming colours,

Birds sing softly in the distance,

The air is warm and still,

And the sunlight above is golden and gentle,

Not too bright,

Just enough to warm your skin and comfort your soul.

You're safe here,

Supported,

And this moment is entirely yours.

The sunlight begins to cleanse your energy now,

Its golden rays streaming down from above,

Flowing over your body like warm,

Healing waves.

With each gentle breath,

The light melts away the day,

Softening your thoughts and easing away any tension or heaviness.

The light reaches deep,

Not only into your body,

But also into your energetic field.

Gently dissolving anything you've been holding onto that no longer serves you.

It feels soothing,

Like being wrapped in comfort and care,

And there's nothing you need to do but receive this gift from the sun.

Beginning to feel lighter already,

More yourself,

And with every breath,

You feel more relaxed.

The light above continues to nourish and restore you,

Clearing away any old emotional debris,

Helping you return to your center.

So this is your time to rest,

To restore,

And to remember who you are beyond anyone else's expectation or energy.

Simply be here in this sacred garden.

Until you're ready to move forward to gently release the cords of attachment in your own time with love.

As you rest in this golden sunlight,

Allow yourself to gently set an intention.

This moment isn't about the past,

It's about your own healing and renewal,

And to free yourself from any emotional hold remaining from a parent that you wish to release,

Even if you love them deeply.

In this space of peace,

Simply allow the concept of them to come to mind.

You don't need to think about any details,

Just know who it is you're ready to cut cords from today,

With calm strength and quiet inner clarity.

So now that you've set your intention of who you're cutting cords from today,

Go ahead and rise slowly from the chair,

Feeling peaceful and supported,

Heading along a soft garden path now.

Around you,

Tall hedges and soft blooms create a sense of enclosure,

Like the garden is holding you in safety.

Ahead is a circular clearing open to the sky,

A sacred space within the garden.

At the centre are two stone benches spaced apart,

Facing each other,

And there are little wildflowers dotted around them.

This is a space of release,

Transformation and deep understanding.

Go ahead and take a seat here,

Feeling warm and welcome.

When you feel ready,

The parents you've chosen to meet will quietly arrive here.

Take a moment and see or sense them entering the circle now.

They're calm and at peace here.

In this place,

They are another soul on their journey.

You might feel a range of emotions now,

And that's okay,

All is well.

You're very safe and supported,

You are in control.

They sit on the bench opposite you,

A comfortable distance away.

So now,

If there's anything you wish to say to them,

Now's a great time.

You can speak from your heart,

You might want to express what you needed,

How you felt,

Or what you're choosing to release,

Or you may simply say,

I let this go now.

There's no right or wrong for you,

Only what feels true,

So feeling into this further what you felt matters.

And at the same time,

Understanding can sometimes help to soften what's been held for so long.

This is not about excusing anything that happened,

Or denying your own experience.

Having understanding doesn't mean approving,

It simply opens the door to forgiveness if and when you're ready,

And that forgiveness can bring deep release and peace.

Perhaps you begin sensing that this parent carries their own story too,

Maybe they weren't given the emotional tools or support they needed growing up,

Maybe they did the best they knew how to do,

Even if it wasn't enough.

Gently holding this awareness can help to release what no longer serves your heart,

While keeping the love that feels true to you.

And if you wish,

Allow yourself to say,

I forgive you,

Not so much for their sake,

But for your own peace,

To gently release anything you've carried for too long.

But if forgiveness doesn't feel right,

That's okay too,

Simply being here with this intention is enough.

Now it's time to cut the cords,

Looking down and observing your own body.

See or sense any energetic cords connecting you and your parent.

There may be one or several they might attach to your heart,

Your solar plexus or elsewhere.

These cords represent emotional enmeshment,

Patterns you've carried,

Anything that keeps repeating and energies you've taken on that were never truly yours.

Notice their color,

Texture and how they feel.

When you're ready,

Begin the process of gently releasing them.

You might imagine using a soft beam of light or golden scissors or simply your own hands,

Whichever is best for you is perfect.

Gently detach each cord from your body.

And as you do,

They come away easily and painlessly,

Dissolving from end to end seamlessly and completely.

Just release,

Go ahead.

And as each cord is removed,

You feel more like yourself.

Your energy returns to you.

You feel clearer,

More grounded,

More whole.

You might choose to place a soft golden light over each place where a cord once was.

A healing balm sealing you with love and protection.

Your energy field is whole now.

You're no longer carrying anything of theirs and you're still capable of loving them if you choose,

But from a place of emotional freedom and self-respect.

Now you can thank them if it feels right.

Let them know that you're choosing to live in your own energy now,

To stand in your own truth.

And say your goodbyes for now.

This doesn't mean you won't see them again if you wish,

But that your relationship is no longer driven by any old dynamics.

You are free.

See them turning to leave the garden now,

Walking slowly and peacefully away.

As they disappear from view,

Feel the sense of space they leave behind.

Open,

Calm and expansive.

You have reclaimed your energy.

You've chosen to love yourself.

Now,

With the cord cutting complete and your energy returned to you,

Go ahead and take a peaceful breath.

And begin to walk slowly back through the garden.

The sunlight still filters softly through the trees and the flowers sway gently.

In the breeze,

As if celebrating your achievement.

You return to your cozy lounge chair,

The place where the journey began.

And gently lay back down.

And as you rest here once more,

You feel lighter,

Clearer and deeply at peace.

Your body sinks into the softness beneath you held by the light.

You've done something important and now it's time to rest,

To receive and drift into a healing sleep.

As you rest so deeply in this peaceful space,

You might begin sensing how light your energy feels.

After gently letting go of old emotional ties,

You can begin noticing a softness returning to your being,

A space opening up inside where self-love can settle in even more.

And there's nothing you need to do,

Just being here is enough.

And as your body continues to relax,

Your energy is naturally realigning.

You're releasing what no longer belongs to you and allowing your own beautiful light to grow stronger.

You are supported,

Always,

By love.

You can feel more whole as your energy field settles into a clearer,

Calmer state.

Any parts of yourself that may have been in old roles or patterns are gently returning home to you now.

It's safe to feel free.

You are creating space for new feelings to flow in.

Peace,

Self-trust,

Calm confidence.

And you're doing this with such grace.

You're allowed to feel well in your heart and body.

And you can begin to believe that joy isn't something you have to earn.

Joy is something you're allowed to feel.

As you sleep,

Your subconscious mind can continue healing and renewing.

Old patterns are gently being dissolved.

You may find yourself remembering that your emotions belong to you and no one else.

You are allowed to be your true self.

Strong,

Loving,

And protected.

Peaceful and powerful all at once.

You can wish them healing without needing to heal them.

Their path is their own,

Just as yours is yours.

And you can release the pressure to carry or fix,

And instead focus on your own peace.

Energetically,

So much is shifting.

You might sense the return of yourself.

Your own voice becoming clearer.

Your intuition growing louder.

Without any unhelpful emotional entanglement,

You are more attuned to your own needs.

You can begin listening deeply to yourself.

What you want is valid.

What you dream of is possible.

Having boundaries is a loving act for both you and them.

Boundaries support healthy connection.

They honour your truth and they allow love to flow in a way that feels calm,

Balanced,

And kind.

And in this new openness,

You're remembering your worth.

You're so deeply worthy of love,

Of respect,

Of understanding.

These things are not earned,

They're your birthright.

You don't need to prove or change yourself to keep the peace.

You are peace.

You are love.

You are enough exactly as you are.

And you're creating space for relationships that nourish you.

Where you can feel seen,

Heard,

And safe.

You're magnetising new experiences that reflect your growth and self-love.

You might also notice that you're not alone.

You are held gently by the loving energy of your guides,

Angels,

Or higher self.

Whatever feels right to you.

There are unseen hands surrounding you with warmth,

Comfort,

And support.

Every step you've taken to heal,

To grow,

To become more yourself,

It's been noticed.

You are cherished for who you are,

And the universe sees how far you've come.

All the healing you've done,

The quiet moments no one else witnessed,

They matter.

Your inner work is powerful,

And it's shaping your reality in beautiful ways.

Your heart is allowed to feel light again without those old energetic threads pulling on your emotions.

You can move forward with more ease.

Interactions can feel better.

Your energy is your own,

And you're free to respond from a calm,

Empowered place.

You don't need to return to who you were in that dynamic.

The patterns have been released.

The role no longer fits.

You are free to show up differently now.

Calm,

Grounded,

Whole,

And that's more than enough.

You are allowed to grow beyond any limits that others may have placed upon you.

You can bloom into the fullness of who you are,

Even if they don't understand it.

This is your sovereignty.

You standing in your own light.

And from this place,

You can love more freely.

You can care from a distance,

If that's the best way.

You can hold boundaries and still have compassion.

You can visit,

Talk,

Or think of them if you wish,

And still remain grounded in your own center.

The space you've cleared can now be filled with light.

As you rest,

Your energy is being replenished.

You may feel warmth gently returning to your solar plexus,

Your heart space,

And your mind as you find new balance.

You can sleep deeply knowing that the healing work continues and everything within you is realigning for your highest good.

And while your relationship with your parent may still exist in the physical world,

It can now evolve.

You're not rejecting love if there is some.

Only letting go of the emotional charge,

The old need for approval,

Or any lingering pull from the energy that no longer feels aligned with who you're becoming.

You're stepping into a new chapter where your heart is lighter and your mind is clearer.

You can notice how safe it feels to be yourself.

You can begin trusting your emotions more,

Following what uplifts you,

Saying yes when you mean yes and no when you mean no.

You can give yourself the care you always needed.

You can speak to yourself with kindness the way you wish to others would.

You can reparent yourself with every moment of compassion.

And your inner child is listening and healing.

Everything is energy.

And now your energy is your own,

Clear,

Calm,

Protected.

You've released any weight you've been carrying of others' emotions,

Their story or their expectations.

You are writing your own story now,

A new page has turned,

And it's filled with possibility.

You might find yourself opening to more joy,

Simple moments of peace,

Laughter or connection because space has been made within you.

You may even find more confidence returning and knowing that you're very well,

That you're growing and that your path is unfolding in the best way.

As you sleep,

Every cell in your body is relaxing further,

Your nervous system is calming,

Your heart is gently beating to the rhythm of peace.

You can trust your journey,

You can rest deeply,

You can arrive at tomorrow with more lightness and a sense that something has shifted,

Because it has.

You are loved,

You're safe and your energy belongs to you.

So sense now that you're in a beautiful garden,

Lying on a comfortable,

Cushioned lounge chair.

This is your private sanctuary,

A place of peace,

Light and deep restoration.

Around you,

The garden is alive with beautiful nature,

Trees sway lightly in the breeze.

Flowers bloom in calming colors and birds sing softly in the distance.

The air is warm and still.

And the sunlight above is golden and gentle,

Not too bright,

Just enough to warm your skin and comfort your soul.

You're safe here,

Supported and this moment is entirely yours.

The sunlight begins to cleanse your energy now,

Its golden rays streaming down from above,

Flowing over your body like warm,

Healing waves.

With each gentle breath,

The light melts away the day,

Softening your thoughts and easing away any tension or heaviness.

The light reaches deep,

Not only into your body,

But also into your energetic field.

Gently dissolving anything you've been holding onto that no longer serves you.

It feels soothing,

Like being wrapped in comfort and care.

And there's nothing you need to do but receive this gift from the sun.

Beginning to feel lighter already,

More yourself.

And with every breath,

You feel more relaxed.

The light above continues to nourish and restore you,

Clearing away any old emotional debris,

Helping you return to your center.

So this is your time to rest,

To restore,

And to remember who you are beyond anyone else's expectation or energy.

Simply be here in this sacred garden.

And until you're ready to move forward to gently release the cords of attachment in your own time with love.

As you rest in this golden sunlight,

Allow yourself to gently set an intention.

This moment isn't about the past,

It's about your own healing and renewal,

And to free yourself from any emotional hold remaining from a parent that you wish to release,

Even if you love them deeply.

In this space of peace,

Simply allow the concept of them to come to mind.

You don't need to think about any details,

Just know who it is you're ready to cut cords from today with calm strength and quiet inner clarity.

So now that you've set your intention of who you're cutting cords from today,

Go ahead and rise slowly from the chair,

Feeling peaceful and supported,

Heading along a soft garden path now.

Around you,

Tall hedges and soft blooms create a sense of enclosure,

Like the garden is holding you in safety.

Ahead is a circular clearing open to the sky,

A sacred space within the garden.

At the center are two stone benches spaced apart,

Facing each other,

And there are little wildflowers dotted around them.

This is a space of release,

Transformation and deep understanding.

Go ahead and take a seat here,

Feeling warm and welcome.

When you feel ready,

The parent you've chosen to meet will quietly arrive here.

Take a moment and see or sense them entering the circle now.

They're calm and at peace here.

In this place,

They are another soul on their journey.

You might feel a range of emotions now and that's okay,

All is well.

You're very safe and supported.

You are in control.

They sit on the bench opposite you,

A comfortable distance away.

So now,

If there's anything you wish to say to them,

Now's a great time.

You can speak from your heart.

You might want to express what you needed,

How you felt,

Or what you're choosing to release.

Or you may simply say,

I let this go now.

There's no rights or wrong for you,

Only what feels true.

So feeling into this further,

What you felt matters.

And at the same time,

Understanding can sometimes help to soften what's been held for so long.

This is not about excusing anything that happened or denying your own experience.

Having understanding doesn't mean approving.

It simply opens the door to forgiveness if and when you're ready.

And that forgiveness can bring deep release and peace.

Perhaps you begin sensing that this parent carries their own story too.

Maybe they weren't given the emotional tools or support they needed growing up.

Maybe they did the best they knew how to do,

Even if it wasn't enough.

Gently holding this awareness can help to release what no longer serves your heart,

While keeping the love that feels true to you.

And if you wish,

Allow yourself to say,

I forgive you,

Not so much for their sake,

But for your own peace,

To gently release anything you've carried for too long.

But if forgiveness doesn't feel right,

That's okay too.

Simply being here with this intention is enough.

Now it's time to cut the cords.

Looking down and observing your own body.

See or sense any energetic cords connecting you and your parent.

There may be one or several they might attach to your heart,

Your solar plexus or elsewhere.

These cords represent emotional enmeshment,

Patterns you've carried,

Anything that keeps repeating,

And energies you've taken on that were never truly yours.

Notice their color,

Texture and how they feel.

When you're ready,

Begin the process of gently releasing them.

You might imagine using a soft beam of light or golden scissors or simply your own hands.

Whichever is best for you is perfect.

Gently detach each cord from your body.

And as you do,

They come away easily and painlessly.

Dissolving from end to end,

Seamlessly and completely.

Just release.

Go ahead.

And as each cord is removed,

You feel more like yourself.

Your energy returns to you.

You feel clearer,

More grounded,

More whole.

You might choose to place a soft golden light over each place where a cord once was.

A healing balm sealing you with love and protection.

Your energy field is whole now.

You're no longer carrying anything of theirs.

And you're still capable of loving them if you choose,

But from a place of emotional freedom and self-respect.

Now,

You can thank them if it feels right.

Let them know that you're choosing to live in your own energy now.

To stand in your own truth.

And say your goodbyes for now.

This doesn't mean you won't see them again if you wish,

But that your relationship is no longer driven by any old dynamics.

You are free.

See them turning to leave the garden now.

Walking slowly and peacefully away.

As they disappear from view,

Feel the sense of space they leave behind.

Open,

Calm,

And expansive.

You have reclaimed your energy.

You've chosen to love yourself.

Now,

With the cord cutting complete,

And your energy returned to you,

Go ahead and take a peaceful breath.

And begin to walk slowly back through the garden.

The sunlight still filters softly through the trees,

And the flowers sway gently in the breeze as if celebrating your achievement.

Now,

You return to your cozy lounge chair,

The place where the journey began.

And gently lay back down.

As you rest here once more,

You feel lighter,

Clearer,

And deeply at peace.

Your body sinks into the softness beneath you,

Held by the light.

You've done something important,

And now it's time to rest,

To receive,

And drift into a healing sleep.

As you rest so deeply in this peaceful space,

You might begin sensing how light your energy feels.

After gently letting go of old emotional ties,

You can begin noticing a softness returning to your being.

A space opening up inside.

Where self-love can settle in even more.

And there's nothing you need to do,

Just being here is enough.

And as your body continues to relax,

Your energy is naturally realigning.

You're releasing what no longer belongs to you,

And allowing your own beautiful light to grow stronger.

You are supported,

Always,

By love.

You can feel more whole as your energy field settles into a clearer,

Calmer state.

Any parts of yourself that may have been in old roles or patterns are gently returning home to you now.

It's safe to feel free.

You are creating space for new feelings to flow in.

Peace,

Self-trust,

Calm confidence,

And you're doing this with such grace.

You're allowed to feel well in your heart and body.

And you can begin to believe that joy isn't something you have to earn.

Joy is something you're allowed to feel.

As you sleep,

Your subconscious mind can continue healing and renewing.

Old patterns are gently being dissolved.

You may find yourself remembering that your emotions belong to you and no one else.

You are allowed to be your true self.

Strong,

Loving,

And protected.

Peaceful and powerful all at once.

You can wish them healing without needing to heal them.

Their path is their own,

Just as yours is yours.

And you can release the pressure to carry or fix,

And instead focus on your own peace.

Energetically,

So much is shifting.

You might sense the return of yourself.

Your own voice becoming clearer.

Your intuition growing louder.

Without any unhelpful emotional entanglement,

You are more attuned to your own needs.

You can begin listening deeply to yourself.

What you want is valid.

What you dream of is possible.

Having boundaries is a loving act for both you and them.

Boundaries support healthy connection.

They honor your truth and they allow love to flow in a way that feels calm,

Balanced,

And kind.

And in this new openness,

You're remembering your worth.

You're so deeply worthy of love,

Of respect,

Of understanding.

These things are not earned,

They're your birthright.

You don't need to prove or change yourself to keep the peace.

You are peace.

You are love.

You are enough exactly as you are.

And you're creating space for relationships that nourish you.

Where you can feel seen,

Heard,

And safe.

You're magnetizing new experiences that reflect your growth and self-love.

You might also notice that you're not alone.

You are held gently by the loving energy of your guides,

Angels,

Or higher self.

Whatever feels right to you.

There are unseen hands surrounding you with warmth,

Comfort,

And support.

Every step you've taken to heal,

To grow,

To become more yourself,

It's been noticed.

You are cherished for who you are and the universe sees how far you've come.

All the healing you've done,

The quiet moments no one else witnessed,

They matter.

Your inner work is powerful and it's shaping your reality in beautiful ways.

Your heart is allowed to feel light again without those old energetic threads pulling on your emotions.

You can move forward with more ease.

Interactions can feel better.

Your energy is your own and you're free to respond from a calm,

Empowered place.

You don't need to return to who you were in that dynamic.

The patterns have been released.

The role no longer fits.

You are free to show up differently now.

Calm,

Grounded,

Whole,

And that's more than enough.

You are allowed to grow beyond any limits that others may have placed upon you.

You can bloom into the fullness of who you are,

Even if they don't.

Understand it.

This is your sovereignty.

You standing in your own light.

And from this place,

You can love more freely.

You can care from a distance,

If that's the best way.

You can hold boundaries and still have compassion.

You can visit,

Talk,

Or think of them if you wish and still remain grounded in your own center.

The space you've cleared can now be filled with light.

As you rest,

Your energy is being replenished.

You may feel warmth gently returning to your solar plexus,

Your heart space,

And your mind as you find new balance.

You can sleep deeply knowing that the healing work continues and everything within you is realigning for your highest good.

And while your relationship with your parent may still exist in the physical world,

It can now evolve.

You're not rejecting love if there is some.

Only letting go of the emotional charge,

The old need for approval,

Or any lingering pull from the energy that no longer feels aligned with who you're becoming.

You're stepping into a new chapter where your heart is lighter and your mind is clearer.

You can notice how safe it feels to be yourself.

You can begin trusting your emotions more,

Following what uplifts you,

Saying yes when you mean yes and no when you mean no.

You can give yourself the care you always needed.

You can speak to yourself with kindness the way you wish to others would.

You can reparent yourself with every moment of compassion.

And your inner child is listening and healing.

Everything is energy.

And now,

Your energy is your own.

Clear.

Calm.

Protected.

You've released any weight you've been carrying of others' emotions,

Their story or their expectations.

You are writing your own story now.

A new page has turned and it's filled with possibility.

You might find yourself opening to more joy,

Simple moments of peace,

Laughter or connection because space has been made within you.

You may even find more confidence returning and knowing that you're very well,

That you're growing and that your path is unfolding in the best way.

As you sleep,

Every cell in your body is relaxing further,

Your nervous system is calming,

Your heart is gently beating to the rhythm of peace.

You can trust your journey,

You can rest deeply,

You can arrive at tomorrow with more lightness and a sense that something has shifted.

Because it has.

You are loved,

You're safe and your energy belongs to you.

So,

Sense now that you're in a beautiful garden,

Lying on a comfortable,

Cushioned lounge chair.

This is your private sanctuary,

A place of peace,

Light and deep restoration.

Around you,

The garden is alive with beautiful nature,

Trees sway lightly in the breeze.

Flowers bloom in calming colors and birds sing softly in the distance.

The air is warm and still.

And the sunlight above is golden and gentle,

Not too bright,

Just enough to warm your skin and comfort your soul.

You're safe here,

Supported and this moment is entirely yours.

The sunlight begins to cleanse your energy now,

Its golden rays streaming down from above,

Flowing over your body like warm,

Healing waves.

With each gentle breath,

The light melts away the day,

Softening your thoughts and easing away any tension or heaviness.

The light reaches deep,

Not only into your body,

But also into your energetic field,

Gently dissolving anything you've been holding onto that no longer serves you.

It feels soothing,

Like being wrapped in comfort and care.

And there's nothing you need to do but receive this gift from the sun.

Beginning to feel lighter already,

More yourself.

And with every breath,

You feel more relaxed.

The light above continues to nourish and restore you,

Clearing away any old emotional debris,

Helping you return to your center.

So this is your time to rest,

To restore and to remember who you are beyond anyone else's expectation or energy.

Simply be here in this sacred garden.

And until you're ready to move forward to gently release the cords of attachment in your own time with love.

As you rest in this golden sunlight,

Allow yourself to gently set an intention.

This moment isn't about the past,

It's about your own healing and renewal,

And to free yourself from any emotional hold remaining from a parent that you wish to release,

Even if you love them deeply.

In this space of peace,

Simply allow the concept of them to come to mind.

You don't need to think about any details,

Just know who it is you're ready to cut cords from today with calm strength and quiet inner clarity.

So now that you've set your intention of who you're cutting cords from today,

Go ahead and rise slowly from the chair,

Feeling peaceful and supported,

Heading along a soft garden path now.

Around you,

Tall hedges and soft blooms create a sense of enclosure,

Like the garden is holding you in safety.

Ahead is a circular clearing open to the sky,

A sacred space within the garden.

At the centre are two stone benches spaced apart,

Facing each other,

And there are little wildflowers dotted around them.

This is a space of release,

Transformation and deep understanding.

Go ahead and take a seat here,

Feeling warm and welcome.

When you feel ready,

The parent you've chosen to meet will quietly arrive here.

Take a moment and see or sense them entering the circle now.

They're calm and at peace here.

In this place,

They are another soul on their journey.

You might feel a range of emotions now,

And that's okay.

All is well.

You're very safe and supported.

You are in control.

They sit on the bench opposite you,

A comfortable distance away.

So now,

If there's anything you wish to say to them,

Now's a great time.

You can speak from your heart.

You might want to express what you needed,

How you felt,

Or what you're choosing to release.

Or you may simply say,

I let this go now.

There's no right or wrong for you,

Only what feels true.

So feeling into this further what you felt matters.

And at the same time,

Understanding can sometimes help to soften what's been held for so long.

This is not about excusing anything that happened or denying your own experience.

Having understanding doesn't mean approving.

It simply opens the door to forgiveness if and when you're ready.

And that forgiveness can bring deep release and peace.

And perhaps you begin sensing that this parent carries their own story,

Too.

Maybe they weren't given the emotional tools or support they needed growing up.

Maybe they did the best they knew how to do,

Even if it wasn't enough.

Gently holding this awareness can help to release what no longer serves your heart while keeping the love that feels true to you.

And if you wish,

Allow yourself to say,

I forgive you.

Not so much for their sake,

But for your own peace,

To gently release anything you've carried for too long.

But if forgiveness doesn't feel right,

That's okay,

Too.

Simply being here with this intention is enough.

Now it's time to cut the cords,

Looking down and observing your own body.

See or sense any energetic cords connecting you and your parent.

There may be one or several.

They might attach to your heart,

Your solar plexus,

Or elsewhere.

These cords represent emotional enmeshment,

Patterns you've carried,

Anything that keeps repeating,

And energies you've taken on that were never truly yours.

Notice their color,

Texture,

And how they feel.

When you're ready,

Begin the process of gently releasing them.

You might imagine using a soft beam of light,

Or golden scissors,

Or simply your own hands.

Whichever is best for you is perfect.

Gently detach each cord from your body,

And as you do,

They come away easily and painlessly,

Dissolving from end to end,

Seamlessly and completely.

Just release.

Go ahead.

And as each cord is removed,

You feel more like yourself.

Your energy returns to you.

You feel clearer,

More grounded,

More whole.

You might choose to place a soft golden light over each place where a cord once was.

A healing balm sealing you with love and protection.

Again.

Your energy field is whole now.

You're no longer carrying anything of theirs,

And you're still capable of loving them if you choose,

But from a place of emotional freedom and self-respect.

Now you can thank them if it feels right.

Let them know that you're choosing to live in your own energy now.

To stand in your own truth.

And say your goodbyes for now.

This doesn't mean you won't see them again if you wish,

But that your relationship is no longer driven by any old dynamics.

You are free.

See them turning to leave the garden now,

Walking slowly and peacefully away.

As they disappear from view,

Feel the sense of space they leave behind.

Open,

Calm and expansive.

You have reclaimed your energy.

You've chosen to love yourself.

Now,

With the cord cutting complete and your energy returned to you,

Go ahead and take a peaceful breath and begin to walk slowly back through the garden.

Again.

The sunlight still filters softly through the trees,

And the flowers sway gently in the breeze,

As if celebrating your achievement.

You return to your cozy lounge chair,

The place where the journey began.

And gently lay back down.

As you rest here once more,

You feel lighter,

Clearer and deeply at peace.

Your body sinks into the softness beneath you held by the light.

You've done something important,

And now it's time to rest,

To receive,

And drift into a healing sleep.

As you rest so deeply in this peaceful space,

You might begin sensing how light your energy feels after gently letting go of old emotional ties.

You can begin noticing a softness returning to your being,

A space opening up inside where self-love can settle in even more.

And there's nothing you need to do,

Just being here is enough.

And as your body continues to relax,

Your energy is naturally realigning.

You're releasing what no longer belongs to you,

And allowing your own beautiful light to grow stronger.

You are supported,

Always,

By love.

And you can feel more whole as your energy field settles into a clearer,

Calmer state.

Any parts of yourself that may have been in old roles or patterns are gently returning home to you now.

It's safe to feel free.

You are creating space for new feelings to flow in.

Peace.

Self-trust.

Calm confidence.

And you're doing this with such grace.

You're allowed to feel well in your heart and body.

And you can begin to believe that joy isn't something you have to earn.

Joy is something you're allowed to feel.

As you sleep,

Your subconscious mind can continue healing and renewing.

Your old patterns are gently being dissolved.

You may find yourself remembering that your emotions belong to you and no one else.

You are allowed to be your true self.

Strong.

Loving.

And protected.

Peaceful.

And powerful.

All at once.

You can wish them healing without needing to heal them.

Their path is their own,

Just as yours is yours.

And you can release the pressure to carry or fix,

And instead focus on your own peace.

Energetically,

So much is shifting.

You might sense the return of yourself.

Your own voice becoming clearer.

Your intuition growing louder.

Without any unhelpful emotional entanglement,

You are more attuned to your own needs.

And you can begin listening deeply to yourself.

What you want is valid.

What you dream of is possible.

Having boundaries is a loving act for both you and them.

Boundaries support healthy connection.

They honor your truth and they allow love to flow in a way that feels calm,

Balanced and kind.

And in this new openness,

You're remembering your worth.

You're so deeply worthy of love.

Of respect.

Of understanding.

These things are not earned.

They're your birthright.

You don't need to prove or change yourself to keep the peace.

You are peace.

You are love.

You are enough exactly as you are.

And you're creating space for relationships that nourish you,

Where you can feel seen,

Heard and safe.

You're magnetizing new experiences that reflect your growth and self-love.

You might also notice that you're not alone.

You are held gently by the loving energy of your guides,

Angels or higher self.

Whatever feels right to you.

There are unseen hands surrounding you with warmth,

Comfort and support.

Every step you've taken to heal,

To grow,

To become more yourself,

It's been noticed.

You are cherished for who you are and the universe sees how far you've come.

All the healing you've done,

The quiet moments no one else witnessed,

They matter.

Your inner work is powerful and it's shaping your reality in beautiful ways.

Your heart is allowed to feel light again without those old energetic threads pulling on your emotions.

You can move forward with more ease.

Interactions can feel better.

Your energy is your own and you're free to respond from a calm,

Empowered place.

You don't need to return to who you were in that dynamic.

The patterns have been released.

The role no longer fits.

You are free to show up differently now.

Calm.

Grounded.

Whole.

And that's more than enough.

You are allowed to grow beyond any limits that others may have placed upon you.

You can bloom into the fullness of who you are,

Even if they don't understand it.

This is your sovereignty.

You standing in your own light.

And from this place,

You can love more freely.

You can care from a distance if that's the best way.

You can hold boundaries and still have compassion.

You can visit,

Talk or think of them if you wish and still remain grounded in your own centre.

The space you've cleared can now be filled with light.

As you rest,

Your energy is being replenished.

You may feel warmth gently returning to your solar plexus,

Your heart space and your mind as you find new balance.

You can sleep deeply knowing that the healing work continues and everything within you is realigning for your highest good.

And while your relationship with your parent may still exist in the physical world,

It can now evolve.

You're not alone.

Rejecting love if there is some,

Only letting go of the emotional charge,

The old need for approval or any lingering pull from the energy that no longer feels aligned with who you're becoming.

You're stepping into a new chapter where your heart is lighter and your mind is clearer.

You can notice how safe it feels to be yourself.

You can begin trusting your emotions more,

Following what uplifts you,

Saying yes when you mean yes and no when you mean no.

You can give yourself the care you always needed.

You can speak to yourself with kindness the way you wished others would.

You can reparent yourself with every moment of compassion.

And your inner child is listening and healing.

Everything is energy.

And now your energy is your own.

Clear.

Calm.

Protected.

You've released any weight you've been carrying of others' emotions,

Their story or their expectations.

You are writing your own story now.

A new page has turned and it's filled with possibility.

You might find yourself opening to more joy,

Simple moments of peace,

Laughter or connection because space has been made within you.

You may even find more confidence returning and knowing that you're very well,

That you're growing and that your path is unfolding in the best way.

As you sleep,

Every cell in your body is relaxing further,

Your nervous system is calming,

Your heart is gently beating to the rhythm of peace.

You can trust your journey.

You can rest deeply.

You can arrive at tomorrow with more lightness and a sense that something has shifted.

Because it has.

You are loved,

You're safe and your energy belongs to you.

So sense now that you're in a beautiful garden lying on a comfortable,

Cushioned lounge chair.

This is your private sanctuary,

A place of peace,

Light and deep restoration.

Around you,

The garden is alive with beautiful nature,

Trees sway lightly in the breeze,

Flowers bloom in calming colors and birds sing softly in the distance.

The air is warm and still and the sunlight above is golden and gentle,

Not too bright,

Just enough to warm your skin and comfort your soul.

You're safe here,

Supported and this moment is entirely yours.

The sunlight begins to cleanse your energy now,

Its golden rays streaming down from above,

Flowing over your body like warm,

Healing waves.

With each gentle breath,

The light melts away the day,

Softening your thoughts and easing away any tension or heaviness.

The light reaches deep,

Not only into your body but also into your energetic field.

Gently dissolving anything you've been holding on to that no longer serves you.

It feels soothing,

Like being wrapped in comfort and care.

And there's nothing you need to do but receive this gift from the sun.

Beginning to feel lighter already,

More yourself.

And with every breath,

You feel more relaxed.

The light above continues to nourish and restore you,

Clearing away any old emotional debris,

Helping you return to your center.

So this is your time to rest,

To restore and to remember who you are beyond anyone else's expectation or energy.

Simply be here in this sacred garden.

Until you're ready to move forward to gently release the cords of attachment in your own time with love.

As you rest in this golden sunlight,

Allow yourself to gently set an intention.

This moment isn't about the past,

It's about your own healing and renewal.

And to free yourself from any emotional hold remaining from a parent that you wish to release,

Even if you love them deeply.

In this space of peace,

Simply allow the concept of them to come to mind.

You don't need to think about any details,

Just know who it is you're ready to cut cords from today with calm strength and quiet inner clarity.

So now that you've set your intention of who you're cutting cords from today,

Go ahead and rise slowly from the chair,

Feeling peaceful and supported,

Heading along a soft garden path now.

Around you,

Tall hedges and soft blooms create a sense of enclosure,

Like the garden is holding you in safety.

Ahead is a circular clearing open to the sky,

A sacred space within the garden.

At the center are two stone benches spaced apart,

Facing each other.

And there are little wildflowers dotted around them.

This is a space of release,

Transformation and deep understanding.

Go ahead and take a seat here,

Feeling warm and welcome.

When you feel ready,

The parent you've chosen to meet will quietly arrive here.

Take a moment and see or sense them entering the circle now.

They're calm and at peace here.

In this place,

They are another soul on their journey.

You might feel a range of emotions now,

And that's okay.

All is well.

You're very safe and supported.

You are in control.

They sit on the bench opposite you,

A comfortable distance away.

So now,

If there's anything you wish to say to them,

Now's a great time.

You can speak from your heart.

You might want to express what you needed,

How you felt,

Or what you're choosing to release.

Or you may simply say,

I let this go now.

There's no right or wrong for you,

Only what feels true.

So feeling into this further,

What you felt matters.

And at the same time,

Understanding can sometimes help to soften what's been held for so long.

This is not about excusing anything that happened or denying your own experience.

Having understanding doesn't mean approving.

It simply opens the door to forgiveness if and when you're ready.

And that forgiveness can bring deep release and peace.

Perhaps you begin sensing that this parent carries their own story too.

Maybe they weren't given the emotional tools or support they needed growing up.

Maybe they did the best they knew how to do,

Even if it wasn't enough.

Gently holding this awareness can help to release what no longer serves your heart,

While keeping the love that feels true to you.

And if you wish,

Allow yourself to say,

I forgive you,

Not so much for their sake,

But for your own peace,

To gently release anything you've carried for too long.

But if forgiveness doesn't feel right,

That's okay too.

Simply being here with this intention is enough.

Now it's time to cut the cords,

Looking down and observing your own body.

See or sense any energetic cords connecting you and your parent.

There may be one or several.

They might attach to your heart,

Your solar plexus,

Or elsewhere.

These cords represent emotional enmeshment,

Patterns you've carried,

Anything that keeps repeating and energies you've taken on that were never truly yours.

Notice their color,

Texture,

And how they feel.

When you're ready,

Begin the process of gently releasing them.

You might imagine using a soft beam of light,

Or golden scissors,

Or simply your own hands.

Whichever is best for you is perfect.

Gently detach each cord from your body,

And as you do,

They come away easily and painlessly,

Dissolving from end to end,

Seamlessly and completely.

Just release.

Go ahead.

And as each cord is removed,

You feel more like yourself.

Your energy returns to you.

You feel clearer,

More grounded,

More whole.

You might choose to place a soft golden light over each place where a cord once was.

A healing balm sealing you with love and protection.

Again.

Your energy field is whole now.

You're no longer carrying anything of theirs,

And you're still capable of loving them if you choose,

But from a place of emotional freedom and self-respect.

Now,

You can thank them if it feels right.

Let them know that you're choosing to live in your own energy now.

To stand in your own truth.

And say your goodbyes for now.

This doesn't mean you won't see them again if you wish,

But that your relationship is no longer driven by any old dynamics.

You are free.

See them turning to leave the garden now,

Walking slowly and peacefully away.

As they disappear from view,

Feel the sense of space they leave behind.

Open,

Calm and expansive.

You have reclaimed your energy.

You've chosen to love yourself.

Now,

With the cord cutting complete and your energy returned to you,

Go ahead and take a peaceful breath and begin to walk slowly back through the garden.

The sunlight still filters softly through the trees and the flowers swaying in the breeze.

As if celebrating your achievement,

You return to your cozy lounge chair,

The place where the journey began,

And gently lay back down.

As you rest here once more,

You feel lighter,

Clearer and deeply at peace.

Your body sinks into the softness beneath you held by the light.

You've done something important and now it's time to rest,

To receive and drift into a healing sleep.

As you rest so deeply in this peaceful space,

You might begin sensing how light your energy feels.

After gently letting go of old emotional ties,

You can begin noticing a softness returning to your being,

A space opening up inside where self-love can settle in even more.

And there's nothing you need to do,

Just being here is enough.

And as your body continues to relax,

Your energy is naturally realigning.

You're releasing what no longer belongs to you and allowing your own beautiful light to grow stronger.

You are supported always by love.

You can feel more whole as your energy field settles into a clearer,

Calmer state.

Any parts of yourself that may have been in old roles or patterns are gently returning home to you now.

It's safe to feel free.

You are creating space for new feelings to flow in.

Peace,

Self-trust,

Calm confidence.

And you're doing this with such grace.

You're allowed to feel well in your heart and body.

And you can begin to believe that joy isn't something you have to earn.

Joy is something you're allowed to feel.

As you sleep,

Your subconscious mind can continue healing and renewing.

Old patterns are gently being dissolved.

You may find yourself remembering that your emotions belong to you and no one else.

You are allowed to be your true self.

Strong,

Loving,

And protected.

Peaceful and powerful all at once.

You can wish them healing without needing to heal them.

Their path is their own,

Just as yours is yours.

And you can release the pressure to carry or fix and instead focus on your own peace.

Energetically,

So much is shifting.

You might sense the return of yourself.

Your own voice becoming clearer.

Your intuition growing louder.

Without any unhelpful emotional entanglement,

You are more attuned to your own needs.

You can begin listening deeply to yourself.

What you want is valid.

What you dream of is possible.

Having boundaries is a loving act for both you and them.

Boundaries support healthy connection.

They honor your truth and they allow love to flow in a way that feels calm,

Balanced,

And kind.

And in this new openness,

You're remembering your worth.

You're so deeply worthy of love,

Of respect,

Of understanding.

These things are not earned,

They're your birthright.

You don't need to prove or change yourself to keep the peace.

You are peace.

You are love.

You are enough exactly as you are.

And you're creating space for relationships that nourish you,

Where you can feel seen,

Heard,

And safe.

You're magnetizing new experiences that reflect your growth and self-love.

You might also notice that you're not alone.

You are held gently by the loving energy of your guides,

Angels,

Or higher self.

Whatever feels right to you.

There are unseen hands surrounding you with warmth,

Comfort,

And support.

Every step you've taken to heal,

To grow,

To become more yourself,

It's been noticed.

You are cherished for who you are,

And the universe sees how far you've come.

All the healing you've done,

The quiet moments no one else witnessed,

They matter.

Your inner work is powerful and it's shaping your reality in beautiful ways.

You are free to show up differently now.

Calm.

Grounded.

Even if they don't understand it.

This is your sovereignty.

And your mind as you find new balance.

You can sleep deeply,

Knowing that the healing work continues,

And everything within you is realigning for your highest good.

And while your relationship with your parent may still exist in the physical world,

It can now evolve.

You're not rejecting love if there is some,

Only letting go of the emotional charge,

The old need for approval,

Or any lingering pull from the energy that no longer feels aligned with who you're becoming.

You're stepping into a new chapter,

Where your heart is lighter and your mind is clearer.
