Transform Grief Into Joy & Emotional Freedom

I would love to invite us to begin by placing one hand over top of our hearts and let's just take three of the sweetest and kindest and most self-compassionate breaths that you've taken so far all day.

So breathing into the center of your heart,

Kindness,

Self-compassion,

And self-love,

And exhaling anything that does not match with kindness,

Self-compassion,

And self-love,

Just exhaling it out of your heart.

And let's just take a moment to really infuse the lungs and the heart and that whole area with deep,

Deep,

Deep self-love,

Loving-kindness,

And sweetness.

So visualizing your lungs with each breath,

Your lungs are filling up with golden light,

The light of your soul,

The love of your soul.

So visualizing you're filling up every millimeter of your lungs with healing,

Loving,

Compassionate kindness.

So breathing into your lungs and just watching them fill up with golden light,

Exhaling anything that is not a match with pure divine love,

Compassion,

And kindness.

With each breath just visualize every millimeter of your lungs filling up with healing love and exhaling anything in there that's not pure divine love out.

Taking a moment to infuse so much healing energy into specifically the lung and heart area.

In traditional Chinese medicine,

The lungs are the place that store old grief.

So if there's any old grief at all in your lungs,

Visualizing yourself opening up to the grace and the kindness and the love,

The shower of benevolent love from your soul and from your guides.

Opening up from your crown to receive so much healing light and healing love and sending that into any place in your lungs that might still house grief from your childhood,

From your teenage years.

Visualizing it getting completely washed clean with pure divine love from the higher realms.

Breathing that into your lungs now,

Exhaling with a sigh,

Allowing yourself to really feel the beautiful,

Nurturing,

Tending energy.

The tending of your presence,

The tending of your attunement,

The tending of your higher self to any of those parts of yourself that may house grief from things that happened when you were small,

A child,

A teenager,

Or even things that happened last year.

Taking a moment to wash your lungs and wash your heart with pure healing love.

So breathing that in now,

Filling up your lungs and your heart with that healing energy from the higher realms,

From source,

From your soul.

Let's just take several breaths there,

Filling up every crack and crevice in your lungs with sweet,

Sweet love and kindness and acceptance.

Exhaling with a sigh,

Letting go of anything that might be in there,

Any grief or anxiety,

Just letting it go naturally.

Let's do several more like that.

Visualize your lungs beginning to sparkle with golden light and any of that heavy energy just being alchemized into beautiful,

Pristine,

Clear energy,

Fresh energy.

You can make some sounds if you want to,

Letting out the sounds of releasing that old grief and washing it clear and making space for new,

Fresh energy into your lungs.

Beautiful.

Creating more space for that gold and sparkling light to penetrate into every molecule,

Every fiber of your lungs now.

Mmm,

And just taking another deepest,

Sweetest,

Most tender and self-attuned breath of the day,

Filling up every single particle of your lungs with light.

And visualize this next breath going all the way in to your shoulders,

To the sides of your chest,

Just filling up all,

Every single millimeter of any grief from your childhood,

From your infancy,

From your teenage years,

Filling it all up with pure golden light now.

And exhaling any stagnant energy.

One more like that,

Really filling in every single bit of your lungs all the way to your shoulders,

To the sides of your chest.

And exhaling with a sigh.

Beautiful.

And just taking your fingertips and just tapping over top of your lungs to circulate any stagnant energy,

Any old grief,

To process and metabolize and digest old emotions and to integrate any old heaviness.

Tapping over top of your lungs with your fingertips.

This is a Tai Chi Qigong movement,

Just to circulate any stagnant energy in your chest and your lungs.

We're getting ready to enter into this fresh new cycle,

Which has a lot of positive energy backing it from the cosmos.

So we want to just circulate and move any old emotional energies or grief,

Sadness from this past moon cycle,

Which was a big processing time for so many of us.

Using your fingertips,

Using the energy medicine of Qigong to circulate and move any old energies in your lungs,

Any old grief.

Just tapping intuitively all around your lungs to circulate any old grief,

Any old sadness.

To let it move,

Let it move out so that you can create space for this beautiful and divinely supported new cycle.

Taking your hands and then just tapping that energy down your arms and down to your fingertips.

So we're taking that energy from the heart and the lungs and tapping it down your shoulders and your arms.

Taking that energy from your heart and lungs and tapping it down your arms to your hands.

One more time,

Just taking that energy and tapping it,

Circulating it out your fingertips,

Down your shoulders,

Out your fingertips,

And then just shaking it out.

Shaking it out and just flicking out any of that energy,

Flicking out any of that old energy.

You can pull it down from your lungs,

Down your arm,

Down to your fingertips,

Pulling it out energetically down your fingertips and flicking it into the earth.

Just letting it go,

Releasing it,

Surrendering it,

Offering it up to the earth.

Letting go of that old grief,

That beautiful precious grief,

And just flicking it out of your fingertips and then putting your hand back over top,

Putting both of your hands over top of your lungs.

And just taking a moment to really honor that grief,

That precious tender grief that so many of us have been really processing through.

I think pretty much all of us have been processing through some degree of grief or another.

Placing your hands over top of your lungs and your heart area and just honoring that precious grief,

That grief that allowed you to feel how deeply you love,

And how deeply you care,

And how deeply you feel.

And just allowing healing energy from your hands,

From your palm chakras,

Coming down from your soul through your crown,

Into your shoulders,

Your arms,

And then into your hands,

Into your heart and your lungs.

Sending beautiful,

Loving,

Kindness and sweetness,

Compassionate energy from your soul,

From your higher self,

Down through your system,

Into your hands,

And then back into your heart and your lungs.

And honoring the precious sacred feeling and that precious emotion of grief,

And how this grief was there for a purpose,

That it wanted to be felt,

It wanted to be acknowledged.

To really have the light of awareness and attunement shone onto it,

So that what was underneath it could be felt and metabolized and understood.

And the lessons could come from it.

That all the precious medicine teachings and lessons that this grief contained,

Wanted to reveal themselves,

So that the medicine and the gems could be harvested,

And the wisdom could be gleaned.

And then the knowledge for how to do things slightly differently in the future,

For a more wholesome and beneficial result,

All that wisdom gets to be harvested.

And then the lungs get to be cleared out again,

And fresh energy gets to infuse them,

So that this whole area of the heart and the lungs gets to be filled with a new cycle of joy,

A new cycle of happiness,

A new cycle of fulfillment,

Beginning today.

So just feeling how good it feels to have cleared out your lungs and cleared out your heart from that precious and valuable,

Important sacred energy of grief,

Which we had a powerful opportunity to really go deep inside and rest and listen and grieve and integrate and learn and process.

Honoring that,

The medicine teachings of the grief,

And then just feel,

And you can use your hands again just to wipe over top of your chest and your lungs,

Feeling that clear open space in your heart and your lungs now,

Open for new experiences,

Open for new joy,

Clearing any residual energy that doesn't belong there,

That you're ready to let go of with your fingertips.

And just feeling that whole energy center of your heart and your lungs now open for new,

Positive,

Joyful,

Fulfilling experiences.

And just feel how proud you get to be of yourself for having the courage to feel all of the feelings that you gave yourself the opportunity to feel.

Feeling proud and honoring of yourself for the courage that it has taken to feel your feelings,

To not distract and state,

To be present with the feelings so that you get to alchemize them into gold,

Into medicine teachings,

And create space for new positive experiences.

And again,

Just taking your hands and sweeping your fingertips over top of your heart and opening up that center and just feeling this beautiful open space.

A fresh new chapter is upon us with so much positive energy,

The opportunity to plant new seeds,

And all of this open space in your heart and your lungs for new,

Joyful experiences.

And I just want to honor and acknowledge and celebrate you for the work that you've done to really be with and metabolize your feelings,

All the feelings that come up,

Honoring you for your courage to really dive in so that you can start this new cycle on a fresh slate,

Ready for new,

Happy,

Joyful,

Inspiring,

And fulfilling experiences.

So taking a moment now to bring the awareness from the heart,

Bring it down the central channel.

You can use your hands to bring it down through the power center,

Down to the sacral center or the lower belly,

All the way down to the root chakra.

And just taking a moment to open up to our connection to our beloved Mother Earth,

Feeling her supporting you,

Feeling her giving you permission to feel grounded and safe in this moment.

And sending your roots down from your tailbone,

All the way down to the center of Mother Earth,

Feeling more and more permission every day and every moment to feel more grounded in this world,

To feel more safe in your life,

In the beautiful life that you've created for yourself.

Allowing your roots to really sink in deeply as you feel that beautiful sensation of the core stability that you are growing and growing in your life,

In your community,

In your place and space in this precious world.

Just feeling how good it feels to be stepping into greater and greater core stability so that you can really plant your seeds and tend to your seeds and watch your seeds grow and blossom and bloom and bear fruit more and more and more for the rest of your life.

Just feeling this fresh start energy,

Feeling the fresh start,

Feeling your groundedness,

Feeling how supported you are by Mother Earth,

Feeling the support of all of your brothers and sisters here,

Feeling the blessing of these containers like Insight Timer and other heart-centered loving healing containers blossoming up on the planet right now to support us in knowing that we are not alone,

In having a safe and loving place to reach out for connection,

Feeling how the support is growing from all directions truly.

Our connection to Mother Earth is growing all the time the more and more that we attune to her and take time to feel our connection with her,

Our connection to loving community,

Supportive community is growing all the time and just taking a moment to feel upwards to our connection to our higher selves,

Our souls,

Our angels and our healed benevolent and well ancestors and all of the saints and sages that we feel connected to.

Feeling the aperture of grace to our support from our spirit team opening wider each time that we invoke it,

Opening wider each time that we open the lines of communication to our support from the higher realms.

Taking a moment to invite a shower of grace from your soul,

From your guides,

From your healed and well benevolent ancestors,

From both sides of your family tree,

All of your loving and healed ancestral support and the support of all of your spirit guides and angels.

Just opening up to receive that light,

Breathing it into your heart and asking for each one of us,

Great Spirit,

May this fresh beginning,

May we harvest all of the teachings and wisdom that we've gleaned from all the work that we've been doing to really create a harmonious,

Fruitful,

Fulfilling,

Loving and beautiful cycle ahead.

Then may each and every person receive grace,

Blessings and perhaps even some unexpected miracles.

And may we always remember how loved and supported we are on our paths.

So just taking a few moments just to breathe into your heart,

You can begin wiggling your toes,

Wiggling your fingertips and whenever you're ready just slowly beginning to open your eyes.
