Welcome.
Take a deep breath in and slowly let it out.
Again,
Inhale gently through your nose.
Hold it.
And exhale softly through your mouth.
Let's do that one more time.
Breathe in deeply.
And release all tension as you exhale.
Now,
Let your breath fall into a natural rhythm.
No need to control it.
Just observe.
As you breathe,
Bring your awareness to the space around you.
Notice the sensation of where your body connects with the floor or chair.
Feel supported,
Grounded,
Safe.
Allow your eyes to close gently if you haven't already.
And give yourself full permission to be here in this moment.
There is nowhere else to be.
Nothing to do.
Just breathe and be.
Now,
Bring your attention inward to your heart space.
Place a gentle hand over your chest if that feels right.
With every breath,
Feel warmth and light gathering there.
A soft,
Golden light.
Radiating calm,
Peace,
And unconditional love.
As this light grows,
Feel it expanding throughout your chest.
Warming you.
Soothing you.
Easing any tension or resistance.
With every exhale,
Imagine releasing anything heavy you've been carrying.
Let go of judgment.
Let go of fear.
Let go of the past.
You are not your thoughts.
You are the awareness behind them.
Now silently repeat the following phrases in your mind.
Don't force them.
Just allow the words to settle like a gentle whisper in your heart.
May I be peaceful.
May I be free.
May I be filled with love.
May I be enough,
Just as I am.
May I be peaceful.
May I be free.
May I be filled with love.
May I be enough,
Just as I am.
Pause.
Breathe.
Now,
Bring to mind someone you love deeply.
See their face.
Feel their presence.
Send them the same gentle wish.
May you be peaceful.
May you be free.
May you be filled with love.
May you be peaceful.
May you be free.
May you be filled with love.
Now expand this light outward to include others in your life.
Friends.
Family.
Even those you may struggle with.
Allow your heart to hold them with compassion.
And now,
Send those wishes even further.
To everyone in your city.
Your country.
To all beings everywhere.
May all beings be peaceful.
May all beings be free.
May all beings feel loved.
May all beings be peaceful.
May all beings be free.
May all beings feel loved.
Feel your heart expanding with this light.
You are connected to everything.
There is no separation.
Only love.
Only peace.
Now return your awareness to your breath.
Feel the gentle rhythm of air moving in and out.
Feel your body resting.
Grounded in peace.
Wrapped in love.
Know that this stillness,
This calm,
This love,
It is always within you.
You can return here anytime.
May you be peaceful.
May you be free.
May you be filled with love.
Wiggle your fingers and toes.
Feel yourself returning to the present.
Breathe.
Slowly open your eyes.
Take a moment.
Smile gently.
You are here.
You are love.
You are peace.
Namaste.
