Welcome my friend,
You're tuned in to OMHAIKU,
I'm your host Mahmood,
Back with another music meditation just to soothe.
If you've been feeling fed up with life,
Stressed out,
Overwhelmed,
Anxious,
Worried,
Depressed,
Experiencing insecurities,
Loneliness,
Tiredness,
Hunger,
Feeling misunderstood,
Unmotivated,
Bored,
Restless,
Or perhaps even joyous,
Whatsoever you feel is a-okay,
We're going to take some deep breaths and see if we can come back to trust in the unfolding of our day,
In the unfolding of our moment to moment.
It's not easy to trust life,
But nevertheless we practice,
Recognizing that trust is not a weakness,
More like a superpower.
Feel to your energy,
To the mind,
Witnessing and welcoming whatsoever is inside,
And exhale forgiveness for others,
Breathing in compassion,
And exhale letting go of anger,
And exhale letting go of confusion,
Self doubt,
Self hatred,
Reminding you and myself that self hatred is not the best guide,
Breathing in self love,
Know that you're breathing,
Know that you're alive as you breathe in,
Relaxing the shoulders,
Relaxing the face,
It's natural for the mind to drift,
Drifting back into awareness as you breathe in,
Feeling the stillness of the ground beneath you,
Feeling grounded and rooted in this moment as you breathe in,
Taking a deep breath in,
Exhaling,
Breathing in,
And breathing out,
Every cell in the body breathing in,
Holding that breath at the top,
And exhale,
Way to stay with it my friend,
I'm happy that you joined me today,
Despite challenges,
Discomforts,
Anxieties,
We're still here showing up,
Breathing not just for ourselves but for others,
Going through it,
Sometimes we can't even know how much pain somebody else is in,
We're so caught up in our own story,
Our own hopes and fears,
That we don't even notice the suffering of others,
That makes compassion more difficult,
I thank you for joining me across time and space,
Sending you a big hug,
My dear friend,
Wishing you an abundance of love,
Resourcefulness,
Creativity,
And consciousness,
Sometimes you gotta tell yourself,
I can do it,
I can do this,
It sounds like a cliche,
Or maybe even cheesy thing to say to yourself,
But hear me out,
If you really look inside yourself,
You can observe this voice,
I can't do this,
I can't,
I can't,
It's impossible,
This voice is going inside of us a lot,
And so by changing that statement,
That reverberation inside of us,
To I can do this,
I can,
It has a very powerful effect,
And with that,
I will see you back here tomorrow,
With love.
