Welcome.
Mog and I,
I'm Vicky,
We welcome you to join us today in a practice that is as old as mankind itself,
Where we share our intention of gratitude,
Praising the Sun for all that she gifts us,
In circle,
In community and in song.
We know that affirmation and the power of the thought puts our messages out to the universe and it's heard,
But when we do that with the high vibration of song,
The joyful expression of song,
It amplifies that message further.
And then when we do it together in community and harmony,
It amplifies it further still and that is where the power lies and that is what we invite you to do today,
To join us in song,
In circle.
We're going to begin with a meditation to heighten our senses to the beautiful gifts of the Sun.
So we invite you just now to get yourself comfortable in a seated position with your seat bones or your feet connected to the ground,
To the earth,
Preferably with your spine straight and tall but relaxed,
To allow an open clear channel for the light of the Sun to enter your crown and effortlessly flow through your energetic being.
And when you're ready,
Close your eyes and bring your awareness to your breath.
You don't need to change it,
You don't need to try to breathe,
Just hold your awareness to your breath,
To the way in which your diaphragm moves.
And as your diaphragm draws down towards your root,
Your belly effortlessly is filled with nourishing oxygen,
Nourishing air gifted to us by the trees.
And as you're breathing in,
You're breathing in the light of the Sun and that light swirls around your body,
Deep down from the bottom of your belly,
Nourishing your body.
And as you breathe out,
All tension from your physical body is released.
Breathing in,
Joyful expansion.
Breathing out,
Any limiting beliefs.
Breathing in,
Soulful expansion.
Breathing out,
Any self-expectation.
Breathing in,
Self-love.
And breathing out,
All that no longer serves you,
With joyful release.
In your mind's eye,
I invite you to picture yourself sat in your most favourite sacred place.
A place where you feel safe and supported.
It could be your favourite opening in a woods.
It could be by the beach,
By the sea.
It could be a big,
Open,
Lush field of grass.
Surrounded by beautiful horses or unicorns.
Or in a fairy glade or a wonderful waterfall.
Wherever it is in your mind's eye,
That you feel safe.
Take yourself there just now.
That in this moment,
You are held.
You are safe.
You are supported.
You are loved.
You are loving.
You are lovable.
And I love you.
Deep down from the bottom of my heart,
I love you.
And that feels so good.
That feels so good.
And as you're sat here in your safe,
Sacred,
Beautiful space,
The sun is shining warm and bright in a soft,
Amber glow.
And the beautiful,
Gentle birdsong around you,
Of the air that you breathe effortlessly.
And the rays of the light just tingling warm onto your skin.
And the gentle breeze feels warm on your arms.
The slight flow of your hair as it moves in the breeze.
Breathing in the warmth and the smell of the sun on the earth.
Breathing that light into your heart.
And with each breath,
That beautiful light expands within your physical and energetic being.
Your body beginning to fill with the warm,
Amber glow of the sun.
Filling your core of your body.
Swirling around your heart.
Expanding up into your shoulders.
Down your arms.
Your elbows.
To your wrists.
Into your hands.
And to the tips of each finger and thumb.
Breathing in the warm,
Amber glow of the light of the sun.
Down into your legs and your knees.
And your ankles and your feet.
To the tips of each toe and toenail.
Breathing in that beautiful,
Warm,
Amber glow.
And feeling the warmth as it swirls up into your throat.
Into your mouth.
Into your head.
Around your brain.
Into your ears.
Into your teeth and your tongue and your lips and your eyes.
Shining light,
Pure light and love out of your eyes.
Into your eyelids and your eyelashes and your eyebrows and your forehead.
To the tip of every hair on your head.
Breathing that light into all the energetic systems of your being.
Your chakras.
All your auric flares.
Your energy meridians and your nadis.
You are fully bathed in light.
The light of the sun.
Joyful expansion.
The earth is alive.
Flowers are flourishing.
Praise to the light of the sun.
Praise to the light of the sun.
Give thanks to the light of the sun.
Thanks to the light of the sun.
Spirit of the sun.
Solar expansion.
Roses in the groves.
Petals of eternal life.
Praise to the light of the sun.
Praise to the light of the sun.
Give thanks to the light of the sun.
Thanks to the light of the sun.
Heart of the sun.
Soulful expansion.
Dancing in the grove.
Goddess of eternal love.
These are the words we will sing together now in harmony.
You can sing as loud or as quiet as you wish.
You can sing the words together to whatever note comes out of your mouth.
You can sing it in your mind,
Quietly.
Or you can just sit and absorb the sound of the souls singing to you,
With you in your heart.
There's no expectation.
There's no bath set.
This is singing freely,
Wildly,
To your heart's desire.
To sing our gratitude to the light of the sun.
Each line of words of our intention of gratitude will be sung once and then a second time.
So you can sing it as call and response.
Listen to the first line and then sing the second line.
Or if you're familiar with it,
Sing all of it.
In this beautiful place that you are seated just now.
Light of the sun.
Joyful expansion.
