Transcript

Welcome. To the summer solstice meditation. Today we honor the longest day of the year. Time of light. Abundance. Growth. Possibility. The sun reaches its peak. Reminding us. That we too are meant to shine. Not by becoming someone else. But by remembering who we've been all along. Allow yourself to settle into this moment. There is nowhere else you need to be. There is nothing you need to prove. For these next few minutes. Simply allow yourself to receive. Get comfortable wherever you are. Feel free to close your eyes. And start to notice your breath. And as you begin to breathe in and out. . . Notice where you might be holding any tension in your body. With each exhale. Start to soften that tension. Unclench your jaw. Relax your shoulders. Take another deep breath in. And a nice breath out. I invite you to imagine. That you're walking barefoot. Through a sunlit meadow. Tall grasses brushing against your legs. Wildflowers. Swaying in the warm breeze. The setting sun. Wrapping around you. With each step. You feel yourself becoming lighter. Becoming more present. More connected. To the truth. Of who you are. Take a moment. To notice your surroundings here. In this sunlit meadow. Feel the sun on your skin. Feel the warm breeze blowing through your hair. Tune into your breath again. Perfect. You notice. In this meadow. That someone is waiting. Curiosity. Draws you closer to them. As you continue walking through this beautiful meadow. You notice that someone is waiting. ASU. It's the version of you who truly, Fully trusts themselves. It's the version of you who speaks their truth. The version of you who no longer hides their gifts. Or shrinks to make others feel comfortable. And as you observe this version of yourself in this beautiful sunlit meadow. Some questions might arise. How do they carry themselves? What expression is on their face? What wisdom. Might they have to share with you? Suddenly, This version of you turns towards you. And offers you a gift. Perhaps this gift is a flame. Or a ball of light. Perhaps this gift is a flower. Or a golden key. Or maybe. . . This gift is simply a message. Meant only for you. You reach out. And accept this gift. And as you hold this gift close to your heart, Become aware of anything you've been carrying. That no longer belongs with you. This might be self-doubt. This might be fear. This might be old stories or old versions of yourself you no longer align with. This could be expectations that were never yours to begin with. Imagine now placing these burdens into the sunlight. Watch as the light transforms them. Not through force. But through love. Now imagine the warmth of the summer sun above you. A golden light. Gently pouring down. Through the crown of your head. This light filling every part of your body. Your mind. You your heart. Your spirit. Illuminating the truth. That has always lived within you. You do not need permission. To take up space. You do not need to earn your worth. You are allowed. To shine. Repeat after me if you feel called to. You do not need permission. Take up space. You do not need to earn your worth. You? Are allowed. To shine. As we close out this meditation. Take a moment. To thank yourself for showing up today. Take a moment to thank the sun. For its steady reminder. That even after darkness. . . Light. Returns. And as you move through this season ahead, May you remember. The light you see. Has never been. Outside of you. The light you seek. Has always been yours. It is safe for you to shine. It is safe for you. To be seen. And it is safe. For you. To step fully. Into your life. Take one final. . . Long inhale. Fulfilling yourself. With that light. And exhale. Any remaining expectations. That are not yours to carry. When you're ready. Tune back in. To your body. Shining brightly. Slowly open your eyes. And continue. To shine bright. Like the sun.
