Settling in,
Bringing your attention more inward,
Allowing the eyes to close if that's okay for you today.
I invite you into an exploration of a world in which self does not exist isolated in each of our beings.
Just like we cultivate a connection to self-energy moving through and among our parts and our inner system,
That flow exists outside of our being as well.
What we can refer to as infinite self.
This is ever-flowing self-energy that exists beyond our singular being in infinite abundance moving throughout the world.
Bringing awareness to breath now as a bridge inviting in that infinite self-energy.
Each inhale welcoming in that flow.
Each exhale infinite self interweaving through our inner world.
At times when our ever so necessary and well-intentioned parts are leading us through this world,
We can invite this larger infinite self-energy to support us in connecting to our own personal self-energy.
Joining with our parts.
No one has to try to navigate this world alone.
Not our parts,
Not even our self.
Self-energy flowing in infinite abundance in the world.
Like jungle cats calmly sleeping in the trees.
Or all of the artists of the world creating music,
A mural,
A poem with clear creative vision.
The patience of ants carrying one grain of sand at a time to build their home.
Each inhale inviting in the flow of infinite self into your being.
Each exhale inviting that flow to interweave.
Joining with your own personal self-energy moving through and among the parts of your system.
Self-energy flowing in infinite abundance in the world.
The courage of protective roars happening in this very moment.
Voices in human and beyond human forms courageously growling in the presence of adversity and danger.
The persistence of water flowing over the rocks carving its way until it finds its way back to the ocean.
The confidence of mountain goats climbing precarious cliffside slopes.
With each breath receiving,
Inhaling,
Exhaling.
Just inviting in infinite self with no expectation from parts.
No expectation of your own self-energy.
Just noticing where and how infinite self can land.
Following the flow of that energy as it moves through your system.
Parts may or may not be up for hanging out with it,
And that's just fine.
Parts may even notice that their own self-qualities are ignited as the outer world reflects our inner natures.
Continuing to be present with infinite self-energy ever moving through the world.
Dolphins playing with each other as they glide through the ocean.
The many,
Many people at this very moment doing a kind thing.
Perhaps picking up a piece of trash to take care of Mother Earth.
Offering food to those who are hungry.
Perhaps pausing to let someone go in front of them in line.
So many gestures of compassion happening in this very moment.
In our own human world.
Contributing to the presence of infinite self flowing.
The moon drawn into orbit around Mother Earth.
Just as Earth is connected in orbit around the sun with the other planets in our solar system.
Our own cosmic system in connection with one another.
And with each inhale,
Perhaps infinite self reveals to you ways in which it is sensing you could use particular connections to that source.
Inviting curiosity and openness beyond the examples I've shared.
What images,
What sensations,
What not quite describable knowings are flowing into your being with each breath.
Revealing to you wisdom to be received into your being today.
You might have thinking parts that think they know what you need most.
And they might be right.
However,
I invite those parts to allow infinite self to just show you.
To answer.
To nourish you in the ways this wisdom naturally knows how to do.
Parts may want to try to figure out what each image,
Or message,
Or color that shows itself represents,
What it means.
Again,
Inviting those parts to relax and receive.
The clarity of infinite self will reveal itself.
Receiving whatever is being revealed to you today.
As you breathe in the self energy from its infinite source existing beyond us,
Notice the experience of this self energy along with your own personal self energy and your parts all coexisting.
Your personal inner system interconnected with the infinite.
Being with the dance of your own personal inner system and the infinite flow.
And now expressing any genuine gratitude you have for your system and the larger infinite self energy.
Giving yourself some appreciation for taking the time to be in this practice.
Please know you can stay connected even as you bring your attention and awareness back into external connection.
Reorienting to the space around you.
Eventually opening your eyes if you've chosen to close them.
I have enjoyed being on this journey with you and I wish you well as you move through the rest of your day.
