Time To Shine The Soul

Rather than shine our shoes today, let’s shine our souls. This playful guided meditation invites you to take a break from the serious busy life and simply sit in silence for a brief two minutes. With the breath as our guide and a suggested mantra for a walking stick, let’s find the source of who we are.

Transcript

Hello and welcome.

I'm so glad you're here.

This brief time together is a chance to reset and relax your mind and body.

Reignite your inner light by making this a friendly place to be.

Squinch up your face with a silly pout and whatever you do,

Don't smile.

Just kidding.

Let's start for real by getting comfortable.

And now even a little more comfortable.

Close your eyes.

If you're laying down,

Make sure your lower back feels supported.

You might want a pillow under your knees.

If you're sitting,

Let your shoulders take a short walk up to your ears and down,

Up and down.

Let your head and neck move around a bit.

That's it.

Very nice.

Our bodies love the extra care and attention we're giving them here.

Squeeze your hands into fists and let them settle.

Squeeze your feet and toes and let them settle too.

Exhale with a nice ahhh.

So good.

Next we're going to shine our souls with two quiet minutes of just breathing.

It's amazing what two minutes can do for the light of your soul.

In a moment I'll ring the bell and watch the time for two minutes.

Then I'll ring the bell again.

In between,

Simply allow your breath to roll in and out like ocean waves.

If you'd like support with fussy thoughts,

Play with this one repetitive phrase.

I am here now.

I am here now.

You can play with it.

I am here now.

I'm here now.

Now I'm here.

Let this be enough.

Maybe finish up that one last breathing round.

Begin to adjust to the room around you.

Let your eyes open slowly.

As you ease into the rest of the moment,

What's to come next?

Take a moment to notice some of this lovely soul shine you've created.

Bring it with you.

Thank you for these moments together here on Insight Timer.
