Let's begin by finding a comfortable position,
Whatever feels right for you,
Sitting or lying down.
When you're ready,
Gently close your eyes and begin to turn your attention inwards.
Tuning into the sensations of your breath,
Allowing you to feel more presence within your body.
Our simple state of presence is more powerful than we often realize.
Simply by thinking and noticing any part of our body allows it to relax,
Even just slightly,
Without having to do anything,
Without any effort.
Take a few moments to scan your body,
Looking inwards,
Seeing what parts would like to relax a little more.
Allow yourself to feel into it,
Feeling and noticing any sensation that arises.
And breathe into whatever you feel,
Breathing in fully and deeply.
Allow yourself to relax,
Even deeper.
Simply by feeling into the different sensations,
Breathing into them as you scan your whole body.
Feeling inwards,
Just noticing,
Feeling and breathing.
Spending a few more moments of quality time,
Feeling and breathing,
Into any areas that want a little extra attention.
Breathing in fully and deeply,
Letting go easily on the exhale,
Without any effort,
Giving yourself permission to relax.
Feeling naturally now and looking inwards,
Invite your gentle focus and curiosity to your heart center.
Gently focusing on the middle of your chest and a couple of inches inwards.
As you breathe in and out,
Keep your awareness on this space,
Almost as if you're breathing into your heart.
And as you breathe out,
You relax into it.
And on every breath in,
You feel nourishing energy flowing into your heart.
And on every breath out,
You allow your heart to feel even more relaxed.
You affirm in your heart center,
All is well.
And you begin to become aware of a loving vibration deep within your heart.
You may even sense a radiating orb of light there.
Perhaps seeing waves of light pulsing from your heart in all directions,
Like a living star here in your heart.
Tune into its warmth.
Feel how comforting it is.
Invite yourself to relax even deeper into your heart's energy center.
And as you relax even more,
You begin to become aware of a column of rainbow light shining down from as high as you can imagine,
Encompassing you in a beautiful column of light.
You notice small specks of pulsing light within this column,
Gently float down and spiraling all around you,
Comforting you with their presence,
Protecting you,
Guiding you.
As you breathe in,
You feel the warm,
Loving energy flowing through you,
Resonating deeply and harmoniously within your heart.
Take a few moments,
Breathing in deeply,
Just basking in this feeling,
In this light.
Seeing your heart radiating outwards and enjoying the sensation of peace that it brings.
You now begin to see and sense the rays of the rainbow light flowing down through you,
From the top of your head down through the center of your body,
All the way down to the soles of your feet,
Spreading outwards at the bottom and wrapping up and around,
Flowing all the way back up over the top of your head,
Creating a sphere of energy around your body.
Flowing continuously down through a column of light,
Through the center of your body,
All the way down to the soles of your feet,
Spreading out up and around over your head,
And flowing back in through your crown.
Take a moment to feel the flow,
The warmth of the current,
Feeling the energy flow through you,
Your radiant heart deep in the center.
As you continue to feel the flow of energy,
The feeling of energy and light within you grows until it glows so bright that eventually it feels as though all you are is light.
You feel every cell in your being and every space in between,
Each cell radiating with this loving light,
Full of life,
Smiling from within.
On the next inhale,
Take a full deep breath,
Feeling your stomach and rib cage expanding all the way,
Holding your breath when you reach the fullness of the inhale.
And when you're ready,
Exhale with a sigh,
Fully letting go.
As your breath returns to its regular flow,
You still feel yourself connected to the light,
Radiant,
Cleansed and uplifted.
But you also begin to become aware of how you are more anchored in your body,
Fully in this moment,
Feeling refreshed,
Feeling renewed.
Taking the time now to complete this moment,
Feel the points of contact between you and the surface on which you are resting.
Eyes still closed,
Slowly bringing your awareness back to your surroundings,
Feeling the air on your skin,
Gently moving your body if you wish,
Taking your time.
And when you feel ready to come back,
Gently open your eyes,
Aware of the world around you,
Remembering you can come back and experience this practice as often as you like.
If you feel called,
Take the time to write or journal about the gifts of your experience today.
