Welcome,

Darling.

This is your space to let go,

To breathe,

And to remember you're not alone.

Life gets heavy sometimes,

We carry burdens we are never meant to hold alone,

But in this moment,

You're invited to lay it all down,

To be still,

To be held.

This meditative prayer is a soft space to land,

A quiet moment to connect with your breath,

With your heart,

And with something greater than yourself.

No need to be perfect here,

No need to have it all figured out,

Just come as you are.

Breathe,

Be.

Let's begin.

Find a comfortable position,

Either sitting or lying down.

If you choose,

Close your eyes or find a gentle gaze.

You may want to place your hands on your heart to ground yourself.

Take a moment to check in with your body,

Your mind,

And your spirit.

Begin to focus on your breath,

Breathe in deeply and exhale slowly.

Find your own pace,

Allowing each inhale to fill you with calm,

And each exhale to release any tension or stress.

Feel the weight of your body being supported by the ground beneath you.

As you continue to breathe,

Remind yourself that you are not alone in this moment.

This prayer is a meditative oasis,

A space to connect with yourself and the higher power.

Take a deep breath in and listen as I share these words with you.

The Lord is my shepherd,

I shall not want.

He makes me lie down in green pastures.

He leads me beside still waters.

He restores my soul.

Let these words sink in knowing that peace is available to you in every moment.

You are being led to stillness and being restored.

Now for a little affirmation.

Let it go.

Let God,

The universe,

Or your higher power.

Take a deep breath in and hold it for a moment.

As you exhale,

Imagine releasing all control,

All worry,

And all striving.

Feel a wave of peace washing over you,

Knowing that you are supported,

Loved,

And held by something greater.

Take a few moments now for deep reflection.

You may want to quietly ask yourself,

What can I surrender?

What would it feel like to trust that everything will unfold in its own time?

Take a deep breath in and let it all out.

Pause here,

Feeling the presence of the higher power with you in this sacred space.

When you are ready,

Hear these words.

The moment you let go of the need to control,

Peace will find you.

Breathe that in deeply and gently begin to bring awareness back to your body.

Slowly begin to wiggle your fingers and toes.

You may want to give yourself a gentle hug,

Reminding yourself that you are loved.

Know that you do not need to control,

All you need to do is surrender.

Everything will just be fine.
