We've done all the work.
We know we have all the tools within.
All these years of practice are supporting us.
When we realize life is this precious moment,
Not other than now,
It becomes a true gift.
We have gone through the changes.
We have faced our fears.
We have met pain and heartbreak.
Now it's time to move with grace.
To say yes to life.
To open our hearts to possibility.
We're going to lean into saying yes with radical acceptance.
Yes to this next step.
Yes to courage.
Yes to opportunity.
And yes to love.
Yes to knowing there is something deep within you that is guiding you.
You're not alone.
You're all with one life.
So now close your eyes and sit comfortable.
Slowly relax shoulders and neck.
Then bring your attention to your head and crown.
Your brow and your jaw.
See if you can relax your jaw.
Your neck and your throat.
Relaxing your shoulders.
Feeling the weight of your arms.
Your hands.
Your aliveness.
Feel your hands from the inside out.
Now focus on your chest and your heart area.
Notice the breath going in and out of your heart.
Move down to your belly.
Just relax your belly.
Let the breath come and go naturally.
Your lower back.
Feel where you make contact with the floor or cushion or chair.
The volume of your legs.
Your knees.
Your calves.
All the way down to your toes.
Can you feel all of your toes?
Now let go of any effort and simply return to your breath.
Letting your breath come in and out without any effort.
Your mind wanders and simply return back to your breath.
Bringing your attention back to your heart area.
Saying yes with your heart.
Yes to whatever comes up.
To any feelings,
Sensations,
Thoughts.
This belongs.
Yes means allowing.
Yes means acceptance.
Yes means befriending.
Now visualise a bright light surrounding you.
The feelings of warmth and love feel familiar to you.
Let yourself bathe in this feeling.
This bright light has a sense of something that has always been here with you.
Always been here next to you,
Supporting you and loving you.
This light is slowly taking form right in front of your eyes.
And as you visualise the light,
You also start to recognise this entity.
This light has come from high above.
It is your future self.
Visualise this entity as a wise and kind and loving being.
See the tenderness in their eyes.
The type of clothes they're wearing.
Feel the wisdom.
They've come to let you know that you are on the right path.
That you are always protected and that you are free to choose your destiny.
Listen carefully to whatever message you're trying to receive.
You are loved.
Trust the process.
I've always been here.
I'm here and I'm not leaving.
Whatever message resonates with you,
Feel this light,
This entity,
This message bathing you,
Protecting you.
Now let go of this entity and slowly come back to your breath and feel how your body is bathed in love.
Notice the small subtleties,
How you might have changed from the beginning of the practice until now.
Stepping into a new chapter requires a different wardrobe.
You cannot carry the heavy,
Exhausted armour of your past into these beautiful emergence.
Byron Katie ask us to question their stressful thoughts that keep us trapped in our old identity.
Who would you be if you were without the thought that you have to hassle to be safe?
You're allowed to enter this new chapter lighter.
You're allowed to let it be easy.
Slowly wiggle your toes.
Come back to the room and slowly open your eyes.
Thank you for meditating with me today.
