Welcome to a guided meditation brought to you by Create the Calm.
Take a deep,
Gentle breath in through your nose and slowly release it through your mouth.
Let your breath unwind whatever the day has gathered.
Again,
Inhale slowly and exhale even slower.
Feel your shoulders loosen,
Your jaw soften,
Your spine begin to settle.
Let yourself arrive here,
Right here,
In this moment that asks nothing of you.
There's nowhere you need to be right now,
Nothing you need to figure out.
You've already done so much,
Thought,
Felt,
Tried,
Released.
And now there's only this,
A pause between what's been and what's not yet.
Let your breath flow naturally.
Notice the small space between each inhale and exhale.
That quiet moment of stillness.
This is where we'll rest tonight,
In that sacred pause,
The fertile stillness between endings and beginnings.
You are safe here.
You are held here.
You are resting in the void,
The place where life quietly renews itself.
Imagine yourself floating in gentle darkness.
Not an empty or frightening space,
But one that feels warm,
Soft,
Infinite.
The kind of darkness that holds you,
Not hides you.
The kind of silence that listens.
You're weightless,
Suspended in stillness.
There's no urgency,
No timeline,
No need to move.
Everything is perfectly still,
Yet somehow alive.
You can sense subtle movement around you,
Energy pulsing softly like a heartbeat you can't quite hear but somehow feel.
It's the pulse of life itself,
Slow,
Ancient,
And trustworthy.
You realize that this void isn't a void at all.
It's a womb of creation,
A space of deep restoration.
Here,
You aren't required to do,
You're simply allowed to be.
Let yourself sink deeper into that knowing.
You are safe in this pause.
You are becoming,
Even in your stillness.
Whisper to yourself,
Or let these words move quietly through your mind.
I am safe in the stillness.
I rest in what I don't yet understand.
I trust the unseen rhythm of my becoming.
As you breathe,
Notice how your body responds.
Perhaps your belly softens,
Or perhaps your chest feels a little bit more open.
The body knows how to receive safety when it's offered.
Now imagine a faint silver light far in the distance,
Small but steady.
You don't need to reach for it,
It's not calling you forward.
It's simply reminding you that even in stillness,
There's light.
That even when you can't see the path ahead,
Something luminous exists within and around you.
Let that light glow a little brighter with each breath,
Until you can feel it gently illuminating the space within you.
Your heart,
Your belly,
Your whole being.
It's the light of quiet trust.
It's what remains when all else has fallen away.
Stay here,
Suspended between darkness and light.
Breathing softly,
Resting completely.
And when the mind begins to search for meaning,
Gently whisper,
I don't need to know what comes next.
I'm allowed to rest in mystery.
Renewal begins here.
Feel how that truth lands inside you,
How peace begins to take the place of effort.
How ease replaces striving.
Nothing needs to happen,
Everything already is.
Slowly begin to bring your awareness back to your breath.
Inhaling softly through your nose.
Exhaling gently through your mouth.
Sense your body supported beneath you,
Steady,
Grounded,
And calm.
You're still resting in that same stillness,
But you can also feel the quiet pulse of life beginning to hum again.
The void isn't empty,
It's the beginning of renewal.
You have touched the pause and that pause is sacred.
You can return to it any time you need to remember that rest itself is an act of trust.
Take one more deep breath in.
And as you exhale,
Release everything that's not needed right now.
You are whole,
You are safe,
You are becoming.
When you're ready,
Bring small awareness to the world around you.
The sounds near you,
The air on your skin,
The steadiness of the surface beneath you.
Carry this stillness with you as you move forward,
Not as silence,
But as peace.
