As you arrive,
Allow the body to really soften into whatever shape you've come into and let your eyes close,
Fully relaxing all of the muscles of your face,
Bringing spaciousness to the brow,
A softness to the eyelids,
Unclenching,
Releasing your jaw,
Softening through the nose,
Letting the eyes be as still as they can be inside of the head,
Feeling the way that the muscles of the neck support you,
But bringing a little bit more ease into the muscles of the neck,
Allowing the shoulders to soften,
To melt,
Letting the arms be heavy and the hands and the fingers to feel open and relaxed,
Feeling grounded through the lower half of the body,
Feeling the way that gravity keeps you connected to the earth,
And then notice the way that the torso is alive with the breath,
The gentle expansion and contraction of the belly,
The rise and fall of the chest,
Noticing the way the air moves through the ribcage,
Through the lungs,
Noticing the way the breath and your heart are interconnected,
The subtle increase in heart rate as you inhale,
And the subtle slowing of the heart rate as you exhale,
Being an observance of the natural flow of your breathing here for a few moments,
Finding whatever form of breath feels most supportive for you in this practice,
Whether that's deepening,
Slowing,
Directing the breath,
Counting the breath,
Maybe even making it more audible,
Connecting with this flow of life force energy and trusting in how it wants to move,
Where it wants to go in the body to create space or ease,
Noticing how you settle more deeply in each moment,
Becoming one with the now,
And begin to connect your awareness with your heart space and equally begin to open up the imaginal realm,
Your vision space.
Connect with how you envision your life in the next five to seven years,
Imagining some sort of scene.
Where are you?
Who are you with?
What is the occasion,
The energy,
The emotion?
Let this highest vision come to life in the imaginal realm,
Engaging with all of your senses with this vision.
Sight,
Sound,
Sensation.
Feel the energy of this highest vision.
Let yourself become one with it.
There's nothing too big to dream of here.
Trust in what arises and lean in,
Noticing what ignites in the body as you do so.
Take a few more breaths with this vision and all of the aliveness that's been ignited within you from it and then allow the visual to fade.
But imagine the energy of this vision circulating around you,
Holding you,
Knowing that it is part of you and it is fully,
Fully possible.
You allow yourself to be held by this highest vision and begin to just instill some seeds of trust,
Knowing that this reality is possible.
And there are so many little threads and details along the way that cannot be predicted,
That may not be able to be controlled,
But it is all part of the vision.
Imagining each little thread of each present moment as a part of the larger fabric of this vision.
And even when those threads feel challenging or uncomfortable or uncertain,
Return to these seeds of trust.
It's all part of it.
And when you can intentionally engage with the fullness of each present moment,
You are remaining on the path of making this vision a reality.
Take a few more breaths,
Noticing how it feels to be held by this vision and all of its energy.
Trusting it as an extension of you,
An extension of your highest self.
You can stay with this energy or you can allow it to dissolve.
And we'll come back to the energy center of the heart.
Just feeling and sensing here first,
Anything you can feel physically,
Maybe anything you can feel emotionally or energetically.
And ask your heart,
What needs to be cleared away for me to stay connected with this highest vision?
And trust whatever arises.
Ask your heart,
What desires of yours am I in resistance to?
What desires am I not allowing myself to connect with because of fear or any narratives of uncertainty?
And ask your heart,
What it has to say about this desire?
Can you trust that it's pointing you in the direction of a broader and brighter horizon?
Opening your awareness up to any other truths that the heart would like to share with you in this moment.
And just listen and trust whatever comes up.
Thanking the heart for all of its wisdom,
For its whispers of desire,
For its authenticity.
And then imagine traveling from the heart through a channel all the way up to the mind.
And as you travel through the channel connecting the wisdom of the heart and the wisdom of the mind,
Notice if you come across any barriers or anything that feels sticky.
And even if you don't know what it is,
Give yourself a moment to clear it out.
The breath could be a helpful tool here.
Imagining breathing into this channel between heart and mind.
And as you connect with the energy center of the mind,
Notice what feels present in the physical space of the head and the brain.
And welcome a sense of openness,
Spaciousness to the crown.
And also to the third eye.
Begin to connect with the mind and its wisdom.
Clarifying any sort of discernment or action steps that could be taken presently in order to stay attuned to this highest vision.
To offer some clarity and direction to the desires of the heart.
Anchoring into the power of discernment.
And noticing if there are any narratives in the mind that may need to be cleared away in order to truly engage with a clear practice of discernment.
Again,
Perhaps utilizing the breath for any cleansing and clearing.
And also offering some gratitude to the mind.
Although it may worry and grasp right stories of fear,
It's all trying to protect you and keep you safe.
So thank the mind.
And remind it also that you've got this.
You are awake.
You are aware.
And you are on a heart path of clear discernment.
Trust in whatever arises here as you remain in this space of the mind for a few more breaths.
And then allow yourself to release any vision that you may still have in the imaginal realm.
Begin to come back into the body where it is in time and space.
Maybe invoking a deeper breath.
Inviting some movement.
Maybe bringing the hands to rest at the heart.
Bowing the chin to chest.
A bow of reverence to the highest vision.
And a bow of reverence to your highest self.
Intending to nourish these seeds of trust that you have planted.
And your ability to be present with all of the threads of this highest vision as they unfold,
As they arise.
Thank yourself for showing up.
Take an inhale in.
And exhale to let go.
