Let's get prepared for our guided meditation.
Close your eyes.
Let's start getting out of our heads and into our body.
This is where the connection with your highest self lies,
Is in your body.
Start to take deep breaths.
Inhale through the nose,
And open mouth exhale.
With each breath you take,
Visualize white light entering through the crown of your head and flowing all the way down to the tips of your toes.
Filling your entire body,
Clearing,
Cleansing,
And releasing any stagnant energy,
Any frustration,
Any tension,
Any sense of uneasiness.
Allow this beautiful white light to cleanse every inch of your beautiful body.
Feel your body relax as you deepen into each breath.
As you deepen into the earth,
You start to see a path in front of you.
I invite you to start to walk along this path.
As you walk along the path,
You come to the most beautiful lake.
It's crystal clear,
And on the other side is everything your heart desires.
As you start to approach the edge of the lake,
A deep fog starts to settle in,
And it becomes difficult to see the other side of the lake.
Off in the distance,
You hear a voice,
It's the voice of your higher self.
She's calling for you.
You can hear her voice,
But you can barely see her through the fog.
Suddenly,
You notice a bridge emerge off into the distance.
Your higher self lets you know that this is the path that you need to take to get to the other side.
So you make your way over to the bridge,
To the edge of the lake,
But you can only see the first step in front of you.
You have to step and trust yourself that you can make it to the other side.
Your highest self is here to guide you,
To guide you along this path.
She lets you know that with every step,
The path will become clear,
And the bridge will become stronger the closer you get to the other side.
All you have to do is take that first step.
Before taking that first step,
Your highest self asks you if there's anything that you need to let go of before you start to make this journey.
What is it that you need to let go of in order to get to the other side?
What do you no longer want to carry with you?
What are the limiting beliefs,
The old stories that you're ready to leave behind in order to make this journey a little bit easier,
A little bit lighter?
These mountains you've climbed were not meant to be carried.
They were meant to be conquered.
You've already conquered so many mountains in your life,
And you no longer need to carry them with you.
It's time to let them go now.
Whatever it is that you need to release that you're letting go of,
Imagine yourself placing them at the edge of the lake,
Leaving them on this side before you take that first step to meet your higher self.
Now that you've lightened your load,
You feel so much more confident to take that first step.
So with a deep breath,
Take that first step.
Visualize that first step that you need to take to get closer to your highest self.
What is the first step?
So often we don't take the first step because we can't see the end of the path.
We can't see how we're going to reach our destination.
But the truth is that is not yours to try to figure out.
Your highest self,
Your ancestors,
Your guides,
Spirit,
The universe,
All of these are here to guide you,
To set you on the path.
All you have to do is take the step in front of you.
Take that step.
And as you take that step,
The path becomes more clear.
And you begin to see the steps in front of you.
With each step you take,
The path becomes clearer.
The bridge becomes more solid,
More grounded.
As you get closer,
You can hear your higher self even clearer.
What is she saying to you?
She's guiding you and letting you know everything that you need to get to the other side.
Trust in her voice.
Trust in this inner voice,
This inner knowing that has been within you all along.
Take this time to listen to what your highest self has to say to help you reach the other side where your deepest heart's desires lie.
Trust whatever comes through,
Whether it's a message or a feeling.
Maybe it's an inner knowing.
Maybe it's something that you see,
That you're visualizing.
Just trust that whatever is coming through for you at this moment is exactly what you need.
With each step you take,
You can see your highest self clearer and clearer.
She is so close now.
Take this moment to really get to know her.
Now you've reached the final step on the bridge and your highest self reaches out for your hand.
She's so excited to meet you.
As you grab her hand and step onto the other side of the lake,
A feeling washes over you.
It's a feeling of returning home.
You realize that all of this has always been within you.
You feel this familiar feeling that you felt before,
That feeling of peace,
Of satisfaction,
A deep sense of fulfillment.
This is what it feels like to connect with your highest self.
And it's in these moments in your everyday life that you can connect with her.
Know that you can reach this destination at any time.
It's not something you have to reach for or strive for.
It is simply a return home,
A return to the truth that has always been within you.
Enjoy these moments being with your highest self and make a promise that you will return here often,
That you will not be a stranger to your highest self,
That each day you will take the next step on that bridge until you have fully embodied your highest self,
Until you have returned home to the truth of who you are.
This is our commitment for the new year.
To no longer search outside of ourselves,
But to return to the truth of who we are,
To continue the journey of coming home to our most true and authentic self.
You can stay in this moment as long as you need,
As long as your heart desires.
Always remembering that you can return here at any moment.
The same thing can happen here.
When you're ready,
You can open your eyes.
