Hello,
My friend.
Welcome to the Soul Growth Sessions.
A place for magical meditation to nurture your soul and awaken your potential.
In this meditation,
We will visit a sacred mountain range.
Over the rare starflower,
Meet a wise and helpful mountain sage and enjoy a special moment of healing and awakening under the stars.
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.
Spending a few 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.
Giving yourself permission to relax.
As you continue to relax,
You begin to become aware that you are ready to journey to a magical place.
You find yourself standing atop a high mountain range,
Looking out across the mountain tops that stretch far into the distant horizon.
The air is crisp and clear as the first stars begin to appear in the twilight sky.
A shooting star catches your eye,
Shining brighter than expected.
You watch it fly across the twilight sky,
Landing just out of sight,
But not too far away.
A wise mountain sage appears by your side.
You feel reassured by their presence,
They introduce themselves as a guardian of these sacred mountains and a guide for spiritual travelers such as yourself.
They tell you about the special sight you have just witnessed,
The shooting star that landed just out of sight,
A special event that only occurs for those who are ready to receive a blessing from the stars.
You journey a short distance with the wise mountain sage as they guide you to the landing place of the shooting star.
Arriving at the landing place of the shooting star,
You find the bright glow of the star and a small crater in the ground.
To your surprise,
You find a crater full of ethereal flowers,
Glowing like starlight.
The wise mountain sage tells you that these are starflowers,
Divine gifts from the cosmos,
Appearing only for those who are ready to receive their blessing.
The sage advises you to choose a flower to prepare as a special herbal tea.
Take your time to feel which flower calls to you the most.
Once you have found the one you are most drawn to,
You carefully pluck a single flower from the ground,
Still glowing bright in your hand.
The wise mountain sage advises you that to receive the blessing,
We need to prepare the flower as a herbal tea to drink under the starry sky.
The wise sage guides you towards their mountain home and helps you to prepare the sacred tea.
You watch as everything is carefully prepared in a special tea ceremony.
When all the preparations are complete,
They bring out a humble looking teapot and two plain pottery cups.
They both sit under the stars outside of the sage's home as they pour out a cup for each of you.
You peer into your cup and see the stars overhead reflected in the water.
As you take your first sip of star flower tea,
You feel a wonderful sensation of awakening flow through you.
Feeling your spiritual memory as a child of the stars.
A spirit of the stars experiencing your time here on earth.
Remembering you are still connected to the wonders of the cosmos.
Experiencing the feeling of being grounded and secure in your physical body as a spiritual being.
Drinking in the divine wisdom of the cosmos.
Letting it awaken inside of you.
And blessing you with cosmic light.
Take as much time here as you need.
Enjoying the fullness of this moment.
Enjoying the company of the wise mountain sage.
As you both gaze into the starlit sky.
Eating tea,
Enjoying this moment of cosmic connection together.
Feeling grateful and complete for your time here under the stars.
You thank the wise mountain sage for their company,
Wisdom and guidance.
They beam a warm smile towards you and tell you you can return here anytime you like,
As you bid each other farewell.
Ready to return to your surroundings.
On the next inhale,
Take a full deep breath,
Feeling your stomach and root cage expanding all the way.
And when you're ready,
Exhale with a sigh.
Fully letting go.
As your breath returns to its regular flow.
You are aware of how you now feel more anchored in the presence within your body.
Feeling the changes that have taken place.
Feeling them integrate within you.
Taking the time now to return to your surroundings.
Feeling the points of contact between you and the surface on which you are resting.
Simply bringing your awareness back to your surroundings.
Feeling the air on your skin.
Gently moving your body,
Taking your time.
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.
And until next time,
Take care my friend.
