Welcome to Pure Life Therapy and this guided mindfulness meditation for cutting the cord,
Letting go of past attachments,
And releasing what no longer serves your highest good.
Throughout the meditation,
You are invited to close your eyes or have a gentle gaze forward if that is comfortable for you.
This can be done sitting up,
Lying down,
Or even standing,
Whatever it is that feels right for you.
This is your time to find comfort,
Relaxation,
And healing.
If at any time you find your mind is wandering,
Gently smile at yourself and simply return the focus to your breath or to the guidance.
Now let's begin by making sure we are comfortable,
Shifting the body in any way needed,
And when you are ready,
Gently closing the eyes or softly gazing at an object in front of you.
Let's start by taking three deeper than normal breaths,
Inhale,
And on the exhale,
Letting go of any thoughts or worries.
Inhale,
Exhale,
Shifting the body in any way needed.
Inhale,
Exhale,
Knowing you are exactly where you need to be in this moment.
Gently bringing the awareness to the breath,
Taking a deep inhale through the nose,
Feeling the air filling up your lungs,
And then exhale slowly through the mouth,
Releasing any tension or stress with the exhale.
Inhale,
Exhale.
Inhale,
Exhale.
As you continue to breathe,
Noticing the sensation of the breath as it enters and leaves the body,
Feeling the rising and falling of the chest or the expansion and contraction of the belly.
Inhale,
Exhale.
Inhale,
Exhale.
Letting go of any distractions and simply being present with the breath.
Simply breathing and being.
Allowing yourself to become fully present in this moment.
Letting go of any thoughts about the past or concerns about the future.
Being here,
Now.
Inhale,
Exhale.
When you're ready,
If it feels right for you,
Visualizing yourself surrounded by a soft,
Protective,
And fulfilling light.
This light represents your inner strength and resilience.
With each breath,
Feeling this light expanding,
Creating a cocoon of positive energy surrounding you.
Now,
Bringing to mind any attachments or connections that you feel are no longer serving your highest good.
It could be a person,
A situation,
An emotion,
Or a habit.
Whatever it is that feels right for you,
Something that you are ready to let go of.
Visualizing your connection with this as attachments,
As energetic cords attaching you to these elements.
As you observe these cords,
Noticing the color,
Thickness,
Texture.
Without judgment,
Simply observing and visualizing the connection.
Simply breathing and observing these connections.
Inhale,
Exhale.
Inhale,
Exhale.
If it feels right for you,
Visualizing a pair of scissors or perhaps a sword,
Whatever it is that makes sense to you.
With intention and mindfulness,
Using this to begin to cut through the cords one by one.
As you cut each cord,
Visualize it dissolving into a golden dust,
And this golden dust softly floats away from you.
You are in your soft cocoon of energy,
Protected and ready to let go.
Inhale,
Strength.
Exhale,
Letting go.
Inhale,
Strength.
Exhale,
Letting go.
Seeing your true energy returning to you,
Replenishing your own vitality,
Letting go of what no longer serves you.
Releasing the connections.
Cutting through the attachments.
Inhale,
Vitality.
Exhale,
Letting it all go.
Inhale,
Vitality.
Exhale,
Letting go.
Feeling the sense of liberation and lightness with each cord you cut.
Trusting the process of letting go and knowing that it is an act of self-empowerment.
Inhale,
Strength.
Exhale,
Letting go.
Inhale,
Strength.
Exhale,
Letting go.
Continuing to breathe deeply and cutting through any remaining cords.
Taking the time that you need to release these attachments.
As you release the attachments,
Noticing a growing sense of freedom and spaciousness within you.
Inhale,
Freedom.
Exhale,
Letting go.
Inhale,
Freedom.
Exhale,
Letting it all go.
The cords becoming a soft golden dust,
Slipping off into the air.
With each breath,
You are allowing the connections to be released.
Inhale,
Exhale.
Inhale,
Exhale,
Releasing the attachments.
Inhale,
Exhale.
Inhale,
Exhale,
Releasing the attachments.
Now,
Taking a moment to connect with your own inner strength.
Visualizing a bright light at the core of your being,
Radiating love,
Confidence,
And self-assurance.
Breathing in this brilliant,
Warm,
Comforting light.
Inhale,
Empowerment.
Exhale,
Letting go.
Inhale,
Empowerment.
Exhale,
Letting go.
These attachments no longer serve you.
Opening yourself up for the highest good.
With each breath,
Bringing in more love,
Confidence,
Self-assurance,
Empowerment.
Inhale,
Exhale.
When you're ready,
With awareness,
Directing the attention back to the physical sensations of the breath.
Noticing how the breath physically flows into and out of the body.
Observing the sensations of the chest and abdomen rising and falling.
Taking a deeper than normal breath and observing with gratitude the feeling of freedom and lightness that comes with cutting the cords.
Reveling in your light,
Spacious,
And whole energy.
Appreciating yourself for letting go and allowing yourself to release that which is no longer needed.
Carrying this sense of liberation with you into the world.
Trusting that you have the power to release what no longer serves you and to move forward with a renewed sense of clarity,
Purpose,
And freedom.
Having an awareness of the body where it is.
Taking a moment to express gratitude to yourself for dedicating this time to mindfulness.
Remember that you will always carry this newfound wholeness with you into your day.
Directing the attention to the physical sensations of the body in the position that you're in.
Starting to make any adjustments that are necessary,
Perhaps wiggling the fingers and toes,
Shifting.
And when you're ready,
With the next breath,
Gently opening the eyes.
