Greetings and welcome to today's meditation, A Gentle Light for Exiled Parts. Take a moment just to settle into comfort. Letting your body find stillness and ease. Take a deep breath in slowly through your heart space. And exhale gently. Let's do that two more times. Breathe in. And exhale. Allowing it to go throughout your body. Feeling it even in your toes. Inhale again. Exhaling. Allowing your breath to just travel. And just notice where inside needed that breath. Now exhale. Imagine a soft golden light surrounding you. This light is tender. Warm. And non-judgmental. It is here for the parts of you that have felt exiled. Hidden away. Or even forgotten. Extend an invitation to those parts. Let them know you are safe here. You no longer have to remain in the shadows. And this gentle light honors you. Holds you. Values you. Because you are worthy. See these parts begin to emerge. Perhaps timidly. Maybe with some curiosity. However they choose to appear is perfect. Invite them to step into the light. Let them know that the light demands nothing of them. It just simply wants to embrace them. To hold them. Encourage them to breathe with you. Inhaling. Compassion. Inhaling. And exhaling. Shame. And just see how that is received. Inhaling maybe connection. And choosing to exhale fear. And just observe how they take that in. That they can do this wonderful exchange. Through their breath. As much or as little as feels right and safe for them. There is no demand. There's only a gentle invitation. Let them know you belong. You are cherished. You are free to be seen here. I see you. I welcome you. Take a moment to just notice how your body feels. As this light surrounds you. Notice how they're responding. As the light surrounds them. As the light surrounds you. Watch how the light surrounds the two of you. The three of you. The group of you. How does that feel? What is the energy like in the light? Perhaps it feels softer. Freer. More alive. More connected. More at ease. Observe how your body is responding to the light. And allow it to find its rhythm. As it takes this all in. Flow with it. Be with it. Welcome it. And when it feels complete. Remind them that this gentle light is always available for them. They can return here whenever they need to be seen. To be held. When they desire connection. This is their light. And it's always here for them. And whenever you're ready. Just wiggle your fingers and wiggle your toes. To come back to this moment. Thank you for connecting with us. Bye-bye for now.
