Transcript
For this meditation,
Allow yourself to lie down and open your arms out beside you.
Literally take up some space.
As we move through the meditation,
I'll prompt you to change your body position as a way to help move through the experience.
So for now,
Laying down,
Arms open,
Eyes closed,
Body relaxed.
Take a breath in and as you exhale,
Feel supported by what you're laying on top of.
If it's a mattress,
Let yourself sink in.
If it's floor or carpet,
Let yourself feel supported.
Notice all the parts of your body that is in contact with the surface you're laying on.
Make a fist with both hands.
Take a breath in,
Hold your breath for just a moment,
And then exhale through the mouth as you release the fists.
Open your hands.
Now bring to mind your financial health.
Right there with your body open,
With your arms out,
Your hands relaxed,
Bring to mind your financial health.
And notice how you feel.
Does it start to feel less comfortable to be this spread out?
If you would like,
You can move your hands into connection with the body.
Hands on your belly,
Hands on your heart,
One hand in each place.
And like emptying your pockets to observe their contents,
Lay your financial situation out in front of you.
Allow your body to stay long.
And if you need to be in touch with your body to bring soothing,
Please do that.
Now with your financial health laid out in front of you,
Notice how you feel.
Notice the rush of thoughts.
Maybe it starts to spiral in a circle,
Start to feel tight,
Ruminating constriction.
Or maybe you can see it as it is,
And open your body a little more.
So getting space,
Your arms spread out away from your body.
And can you allow your body to open,
To know that you're safe,
Even when you're feeling so much?
Deepen and strengthen the breath,
Pulling air in through the body,
Exhaling it out,
And allowing emotion to move.
You may want to scream,
Or cry,
Or groan,
Or sigh,
Any sound that you make is welcome.
Invite the emotion to come out as sound.
And if you'd like to play with this,
Crawl into a ball right now,
Like a fetal position.
Roll onto your side,
Tuck your knees in.
Take a breath in,
And then as you exhale,
Just invite emotion as sound.
And repeating that,
Inhale,
And exhale emotion as sound.
And once more,
Inhale,
And exhaling it out.
Now from this space,
Tell yourself,
I'm safe.
I am completely safe.
All of my feelings are valid.
It's okay to feel what I'm feeling.
And then begin to unfurl,
Stretch out your legs,
Roll back onto your back.
Open your arms,
Surrender.
Breathe into your heart,
Open your heart.
Can you invite this soft knowing that I'm okay in this moment,
I'm safe right now,
And let your body open.
Now that you've seen what is,
And you've helped your body move a little bit of emotion,
It's time to create an environment where you open to drawing a solution towards you.
As you create your environment,
Ignite your imagination,
As you're getting so good at doing.
And find yourself in a really peaceful place,
A place where you feel most like you.
Take a breath in,
Exhaling out,
Making sound if that feels loving to you.
And begin to imagine,
What would it look like for you to be supported?
What would it feel like for you to be supported?
Financially,
To feel financially healthy.
Begin to envision that you are drawing cash flow to you.
And see what that looks like.
Is it a light?
Is it sparkles on your breath?
Is it literal money flying at you?
Ones and zeros flying at you?
You get to create this.
And the secret here is that the more fun and ridiculous,
The better.
Laying there,
Right where you are,
With your legs relaxed and your arms out,
Could you dare make drawing cash flow to you a little bit ridiculous?
Maybe it drives in in a clown car.
Dollars and cents pile out of the car into a pile in front of you.
And just as the pile is complete,
A little confetti cannon goes off.
And you feel that you've always had everything you need.
Why did it have to be so hard?
Please,
Will you let yourself muster lightness?
Take a breath in,
And with your exhale,
Sigh it out.
And if you can access this,
If today is the day to access this,
Give your imagination a little more permission to play.
Open up to cash flow coming in in waves,
In bulk,
To coming however it needs to get to you.
But now go back through and paint the picture with right now and soon.
As you change the timeline,
There is no desperation in this.
It's just choosing to put a different color on the scene.
Give cash flow the green light.
Instead of the yellow or the red.
Play in this image for the next minute.
Allow your body to stay open,
But very still.
As you are in the imagination process,
As you are drawing your cash flow to you,
Do so from the space of the heart.
Look out through the heart and see it coming.
Know that it's here.
Will you allow yourself to tap into the power of a coherent heart?
Allow yourself to create the space to play.
I know it's real.
I know that things feel tense and tight and uncertain.
If you can trust lightness in this moment and entertain this,
You will clear up space.
You will be nurturing the environment you've created.
To open yourself and draw a solution to you.
Go now for one minute into your beautiful creation.
How'd you do?
How do you feel?
Take a breath in and with your exhale,
Allow your body to sink down a little further onto the space.
The surface that's supporting you.
Know that some days are perfect days for this kind of exploration,
And some days are not the days to be spending in this kind of exploration.
Know the difference.
Take care of yourself.
Practice a high level of discernment.
And more than anything,
Know that you are valuable.
Your presence is valuable.
Your gifts,
Your talents,
Your intuition,
Your tools,
Your time are valuable.
May you step into the belief that you always have everything you need.
That whole health is yours,
Including financial health.
Breathe that in.
What if that was true for you?
What if I am financially healthy was so easy to say,
Just as easy as I am human?
Whisper it to yourself.
I am financially healthy.
I am financially sound.
I am financially secure.
I have everything I need.
I have everything I need.
I have everything I need.
May you feel lifted and like some space was created.
May you feel open.
May you feel that the solution is coming towards you right now.
You can stay here if you like,
Or when you're ready,
Roll to your right side.
Take a few breaths there.
And then very slowly,
Make your way up to a seated position.
Take a few breaths there.
And whisper to yourself once more,
I am.
Financially healthy.
I am financially sound.
I am financially secure.
And so it shall be,
And even better.
