Welcome.

My name is Zeal and I'll be guiding you through this meditation to open your heart,

Visualize divine light flowing through you and cultivate healing and forgiveness for yourself and for others.

Take a deep breath in and as you exhale,

Allow your body to soften,

Allow your shoulders to drop.

Let your breath become slow and natural.

You are safe here.

You are home within yourself.

Now,

Bring your attention to your heart.

Imagine that at the center of your chest there's a warm golden light,

Soft,

Radiant,

And alive.

This light represents love,

The pure divine essence of who you truly are.

With every inhale,

This golden light expands.

With every exhale,

It grows brighter,

Filling your entire chest with warmth and peace.

Now,

Silently repeat these words to yourself.

Love is my true nature.

I am returning home to love.

Let these words settle deep within you.

Notice how your heart responds,

Perhaps with a quiet calm.

Now,

Bring to your mind someone you love deeply.

See them standing in front of you,

Surrounded by that same golden light from your heart.

Let it flow towards them,

Blessing them,

Embracing them,

Reminding you that love always connects.

Now,

Bring to mind someone you've struggled with,

Someone who may have hurt you,

Or whom you have hurt.

There is no need to force anything.

Just allow their image to appear softly in your mind.

See the golden light extending from your heart towards their heart,

Not to excuse or erase what happened,

But to bring healing,

Release,

And peace.

Say quietly to yourself,

I release you.

I forgive you.

I set both of us free.

Let the light grow even larger now,

Radiating out beyond your body,

Beyond your room,

Filling your entire home,

Your entire city,

And your entire country,

Until it stretches across the whole planet,

Bathing all beings in compassion and peace.

Every breath you take adds more light,

More love,

More harmony to the world.

Now,

Whisper within your heart.

Love is the bridge between all hearts.

Love heals all wounds.

Love brings me home.

Take one more deep,

Steady breath in,

And as you exhale,

Feel yourself surrounded by peace,

Pure,

Gentle,

And complete.

You have returned to love,

And in that love,

All is well.
