Hello,
Welcome to the session,
I invite you to lay down or take a seat and get yourself comfortable,
You can close down the eyes if you wish and begin taking some slow deep breaths in through the nose.
Today we're going to be practicing heart space exploration,
Connecting to the heart space or the sense of self,
Embodying,
Embracing and becoming the heart space and then using the heart space to explore the different parts of the body,
Offering them love and reintegration,
So if you haven't already,
Gently place your hand upon the heart space and just feel the warmth of the sensations of the hand upon your skin,
You can visualise the heart space as a ball of energy or a flame or a light,
It can manifest as whatever colour you desire,
But with the in-breath visualise this energy growing strong and brighter,
And with the breath,
The heart space grows stronger and brighter,
We embody,
Embrace and become the heart space,
It may feel like you are located or awareness behind your third eye or in your head somewhere,
If you can for this session,
Drop that awareness down into your heart space,
And with the breath,
The heart space grows stronger and brighter,
We embody,
Embrace and become the heart space,
In a moment we're going to begin the heart space exploration,
On the in-breath you'll visualise the energy or the light or the flame of the heart space travelling to a part of the body and pausing for a moment,
And on the out-breath you'll visualise that energy returning back,
So as you breathe in you visualise the ball of energy from the heart space travelling to the part of the body,
Pausing,
And on your in-breath visualise it returning back to the heart space,
So with the breath,
With the visualisation,
With the sense of self from the heart space,
We'll connect to each part of the body,
If you like you could add a mantra or a prayer of your choosing,
Or perhaps just the words love on the in-breath and trust on the out-breath,
So we're offering the parts of our body love and asking for trust,
Connecting to the parts of the body and whatever they're holding on to,
Your next in-breath visualising the energy from the heart space travelling to the left foot,
On your next in-breath visualising the energy from the heart space travelling to your right foot,
Pausing for a moment and then returning to the heart space,
On your next in-breath visualising the energy from the heart space travelling to the top of the head,
Pausing for a moment and then returning back to the heart space,
On your next in-breath visualising the energy from the heart space travelling to the groin,
Buttocks and hips,
Pausing for a moment and then returning to the heart space,
On your next in-breath visualising the energy from the heart space travelling to the back of the neck,
Pausing for a moment and then returning to the heart space,
Your next in-breath visualising the energy from the heart space travelling to the belly,
Pausing for a moment and then returning back to the heart space,
On your next in-breath visualising the energy from the heart space travelling to the left hand,
Pausing for a moment and then returning back to the heart space,
On your next in-breath visualising the energy travelling from the heart space to your right hand,
Pausing for a moment and then returning back to the heart space,
On your next in-breaths visualising the ball of energy moving from the heart space to any parts of the body we may have missed and any that feel the need,
Pausing for a moment and then returning back to the heart space,
Now returning your attention and focus back to the heart space itself,
With the breath the heart space grows stronger and brighter and we embody,
Embrace and become the heart space,
We let our awareness,
Our sense of self where we feel all of this emanating from,
Drop from the mind into the heart space,
From this place we reconnect to the entirety of the body,
Just spending one more minute in the heart space and connecting to every part of the body from there,
With the breath offering love,
Receiving trust and reintegration,
Let's try it,
So you can use this practice of heart space exploration to reconnect to every part of your body as an internal grounding practice or if there's a particular part physically,
Emotionally or perhaps from your past that you'd like to connect to,
Ground yourself in the heart space,
Visualise it growing stronger and brighter with the breath,
Embody,
Embrace and become the heart space and then from that space,
Send the energy,
Send the love,
Send the connection with the breath to that part of the body,
To that part of your personality,
To that part of your past,
Pause for a moment and then reconnect,
Bring it back,
This is a subtle but continual and deep practice,
It's very,
Very,
Very delicate but it's persistent and in that way we can use it to heal and reconnect and reintegrate so slowly that it feels natural,
Just a very delicate touch with the breath and the heart space and an invitation to return,
I want to thank you for joining me in this session and I'll see you in the next one but if you'd like to continue,
If you'd like to explore this practice more,
We will sit for 10 minutes,
You're welcome to continue with that practice,
Heart space,
Heart space exploration,
Practice anything you would like,
Do you feel called to do,
Let's give it a try,
So if you'd like you can maintain the meditation,
Continue exploring and expanding with the heart space,
If everyone else would like to say thank you for joining me,
Just acknowledge the act of self-love and self-care we're doing here,
This practice of heart space exploration,
Sinking into the heart,
Visualizing it growing stronger and brighter with the breath and then using that to reconnect with the parts of our body,
Parts of our personality,
Perhaps parts of our past,
Offering love,
Receiving this reintegration,
This is a practice of coming back,
Returning ourselves,
Self-healing,
It's subtle,
It's continual,
It's gradual,
It's delicate with the breath,
But it will be deeply healing over time,
If you ever find yourself a little bit overwhelmed,
Frustrated,
Perhaps triggered,
Connect to the heart space,
The parts of you that need it,
Love,
Trust,
Thank you for practicing,
I'll see you in the next one.
