Allow yourself first of all to envisage a beautiful green leaf,
A rather sizable one.
And I want you to envisage that little drops of water are slowly falling onto it and one at a time very slowly are falling down the center of this leaf.
And then from rolling down the center,
That drop falls from the edge of the leaf all the way down.
And as you allow yourself to visualize this,
This gentle trickling down of a drop at a time,
Evenly spaced in no rush until it's sizable enough to fall from the leaf itself downward.
I want you to feel into the rhythm of this,
This movement of this single drop of water rolling down the spine of the leaf.
And as it drops from the leaf downward,
You feel yourself dropping into your own deep calm as if you're also with each breath,
Each out breath equivalent to the drop that leaves the leaf.
You feel yourself dropping inward into you.
And you feel your gaze falling inward towards your navel.
And with each exhale,
You feel your body relaxing,
The shoulders softening,
Falling away even from the ears just gently.
We're just allowing that sense of relaxation to travel all through the body,
Allowing the waves of calm to wash over you gently,
Like small waves lapping the shore,
Until the relaxation travels all the way through your limbs,
To the tips of fingers and through the soles of the feet.
And similarly,
You notice that your mind has drawn its attention downward to the navel and it automatically senses that the mind itself knows that it's time to rest,
That it's permitted to quieten down and enjoy some respite.
With each exhale,
You fall deeper and deeper into this calm space,
As if emerging into this rock pool of your own design that nobody knows about,
That no thoughts or pressures or expectations,
Even from the outside world,
Enter this realm of yours,
This sanctuary.
And you feel yourself relaxing in this rock pool.
And the reverberations of that harmony enter through your eyes,
Your ears,
But also straight through your being,
Reminding you of your own fluid calm,
And you linger,
Feeling grateful for the moment where there is nothing that is required of you.
Even the soft breeze passing through,
Feels loving and comforting.
It's like the warm embrace of the divine itself,
Just brushing past your skin softly,
Is as if ever so tenderly placing the most delicate kiss on your cheek,
Reminding you that you are love,
And always loved.
And with this you feel the organic expansion occurring in your chest,
As if the two sides pull apart a little more,
Creating more space for love to enter,
And for love to flow from you.
And feel into the gentle movements of this love,
Love from the divine,
The universe,
From those around you,
Family,
Friends,
Partners,
Children,
Yours or other people's,
Animals,
Birds,
Even your plants,
Your trees in your yard or nearby.
You feel their love,
You just let it in.
They're so precious,
So warm and unconditional,
So much so you may feel a little bit emotional,
And that's okay.
You may feel your face naturally moving upward into a pleasant smile,
It's undeniable that the warmth of this love is permeating the very fabric of your being,
And you are worthy,
Deserving.
In this moment you are not obliged,
Nor expected,
Or required,
To reciprocate your own state of receiving,
Relaxing back in your cool,
Reflected in your eyes,
Feeling this insurmountable love,
Magnificent and delicate all at once.
As you breathe,
You breathe in the new moment,
And you notice this love is present,
It continues to be.
And how utterly magical that you have the capability to be so present in this very moment in a state of deep relaxation,
With this pure love,
Entering your aura,
Your energetic space,
Your cells,
And your heart.
Take a moment to sit with this,
Simply sitting in presence of this beautiful love,
And allow it to fill you up,
And allow it again to fill you even more deeply.
Notice how you feel and what the energy around you feels like,
Including the energy that is emanating from you.
For you are the true mirror of this magnificent love,
From the divine and others and nature.
You are the pristine mirror.
This is a reflection of who you truly are,
Of you,
The human form of pure love itself,
That is living on earth,
Also radiating love towards others.
Even when not aware,
You emanate the pure love.
And so as we return back to this moment,
You acknowledge that beautiful rock pool,
Your sanctuary,
Knowing you can return there whenever you like,
To have a moment of peace with yourself,
To connect with the profound love that is always flowing towards you,
To you,
And consequently within you,
Always accepting it.
And so as you feel into your body,
Wiggling toes,
Fingers,
Hands,
Feeling the temperature on your skin,
You return as pure full-bodied love.
You just know that you move in the world with this pure love,
Constantly flowing,
Exchanging,
And moving through you.
You'll never run out of it.
God,
The divine source,
Is infinite love by nature.
And as children of this divine loving energy,
We too are unlimited in our levels and supplies and ability to be loving,
To be love itself.
Thank you for meditating with me and thank you for being pure love,
For returning to this truth,
And being at peace with that.
Namaste.
