This track was made with the intention to allow your body, mind, and spirit to be present & feel safe without feeling a need to justify WHAT you feel. It is anchored in our breath and also connected to our Muladhara (root) chakra. You will end this mediation feeling calmer, present, and left with an acceptance of the feelings and emotions you hold within and how they play an important part in your life. You will let go of attachment to labeling and be more content in the unknown that will unfold itself naturally as you let go.

Hello and welcome to this new meditation. Together with me we are gonna take a few deep breaths to start off with. Close your eyes down and draw a deep breath in through the nose. Allow the exhale to unfold naturally in the space and time it needs. Continue to take deep breaths for some moments. Sometimes we are quick to judge and label our feelings. We try to put them into categories, We place them in familiar orders or labels. I'm here to acknowledge that you are allowed to feel things without deciding what they are. Sometimes the deciding part is what complicates the process of emotions and feelings. Sometimes it is the deciding, The act of placing and generalizing a feeling or emotion or thought that drains our mental energy and many times the stability and comfort within. So this meditation is a reminder. Remember we can without the need to express what we feel. This meditation will guide you through some body awareness and will keep you moving the focus throughout the practice so we do not get caught up in all of the deciding parts. Bring back the focus to your breath. Release any heavy weight on your shoulders or abdomen by taking conscious long breath out. We start to slow down our body to bring the awareness inwards. Allow a moment for your breath to be the center of your attention. Breathe in and breathe out. Notice a slight shift in your posture with your next exhale as you allow your body to release any muscle holds, Any small or big muscles. Let go. If you lose focus when you find your awareness amongst your thoughts gently bring it back to the deep breaths you're continuously making. Next we will see if we can expand our breath through the spine. So as we inhale imagine the breath starting from your pelvis area from your tailbone. As you draw air in to your lungs the breath moves up the spine to the crown of your head. With your exhale it slowly retracts back to its origin, The tailbone. Follow this journey up and down your spine with each inhale and exhale. Let your breath guide your practice and pace. Gently find back to your normal breathing rhythm by letting go of your conscious guidance. Experience the presence of energy and life within your body. Try sensing that full life force that is so ever-present within. Flow with the momentum of energy in your body. Let it bring you on a journey in your body flowing around to whatever wants to present itself. If a thought arises allow it to enter and gently guide it away by saying within your mind silently I allow this thought I observe it but I will not give it my focus. I allow this thought I observe it but I will not give it my focus. Again letting the energy of your body and mind working together to be your focus. We will let that be our anchor as we sit for some time in silence. Expand this energy into your whole being. Do this by choosing to let it exist within your body by allowing it to fill you with a light uplifting energy. Whatever you are feeling there is no need to label it. Sit with your experience and let that be the beauty of today's practice of today's act of presence. As we reach the end of this practice take a second to honor yourself being here today sharing your energy with what surrounds you taking part in the present moment. Thank you so much for practicing with me I hope you have a wonderful time ahead of you
