Welcome to week three of the Awaken and Align Breathwork and Meditation series.
My name is Kavita and I will be guiding you through your practice.
Week three is focused on intuition and spiritual growth.
Tonight's meditation practice is on surrender and letting go.
We will practice ocean wave breathing,
A guided visualization,
And an affirmation.
Please come to a comfortable position,
Either seated or lying down.
If you're seated,
Relax your shoulders back.
I invite you to do a body scan and notice if you're holding on to any tension.
The breathwork practice is designed to help release any tension you may feel and to bring you into presence.
Let's begin.
As night falls,
We release the weight of the day and surrender to the flow of life.
Take a deep,
Calming breath in and out.
With ocean wave breathing,
You're going to breathe in deeply as if you're inhaling the ocean tide and then slowly exhale as the wave recedes.
Again,
Inhale with the rising wave and exhale as it gently pulls back.
Deep breath in,
Slow release out.
Inhale as the wave rises,
Exhale as it lets go.
Breathe in the ocean tide,
Exhale as the wave recedes.
If your eyes are open,
Either lower your gaze or close your eyes and take a deep,
Calming breath in.
Let the weight of the day begin to melt away as you settle into stillness.
Imagine yourself lying on the surface of a warm,
Tranquil ocean.
The water is smooth and endless,
Stretching far beyond the horizon.
Above you,
The sky is filled with stars.
Each one shimmering softly like tiny portals of infinite wisdom.
As you breathe in,
The gentle waves lift you slightly and as you exhale,
They guide you back down.
You are safe,
You are supported,
You are held.
With each wave,
You release something you no longer need.
A worry,
A doubt,
A thought that has been weighing on your heart.
The ocean carries it away effortlessly,
Dissolving it into the vast,
Infinite expanse.
What do you need to surrender tonight?
Feel the freedom of letting go.
No resistance,
No struggle,
Just trust.
As the waves continue their gentle rhythm,
Feel yourself becoming lighter and lighter,
Floating deeper into peace,
Into relaxation,
Into the perfect stillness of the present moment.
Take one final deep breath in,
And as you exhale,
Allow yourself to surrender completely,
Knowing that all is well.
Tonight's affirmation is,
I release control and trust the flow of life.
You can either say this out loud,
Or to yourself.
I release control and trust the flow of life.
I release control and trust the flow of life.
Take one final deep breath in,
And as you exhale,
Let your body sink into complete relaxation.
Sleep peacefully,
Knowing you are supported and guided.
