Welcome,

Beautiful soul.

This meditation is for anyone who has ever felt too much,

Too soon,

Too often.

For the sensitive,

The intuitive,

The multi-dimensional.

We're not here to escape the body,

We're here to return through it.

Together,

We'll soften the survival systems in your nervous system and awaken the sacred codes your soul has always known.

Let's begin.

Begin by gently closing your eyes.

Bring one hand to your heart and one to your belly.

As you breathe in,

Feel your hands rise.

As you breathe out,

Feel them fall.

Now bring your awareness to a long,

Winding nerve that runs from your brainstem,

Down your throat,

Through your chest,

Into your belly.

This is your vagus nerve,

The body's natural calming system.

It slows your heart rate,

Lowers cortisol and whispers to your whole being,

You are safe now.

Let reiki energy gently ride along this nerve like golden light,

Soothing,

Softening,

Recalibrating.

Now let's take a slow,

Sacred scan through your body,

With a whisper of science so your brain and soul can walk together.

Bring your attention to the center of your forehead,

Just behind it lives your prefrontal cortex,

The part of your brain that plans,

Imagines and envisions timelines.

Let reiki gently clear away flog,

Bring clarity and choice back online.

Slide your awareness deeper into the center of your head.

Here lies your insula,

The part of your brain that feels empathy,

Self-awareness and subtle sensation.

This is where your intuition first speaks.

Allow it to soften and open like a flower,

Finally heard.

Now drop into your lower belly,

Feel warmth gathering around your lumbosacral plexus.

A bundle of nerves around your sacral chakra.

This space holds stories of guilt,

Sensuality,

Creativity and childhood.

Just breathe and let this space be seen with no need to fix it.

Now rise gently above your head,

Feel the space just above your crown begin to open.

This is your link to soul memory.

To the versions of you who walked other worlds,

Who remembered how to heal without trying,

Who led without being loud,

Who were exiled for being light.

And now you've returned,

Not to be tested,

But to embody.

Let your origin frequency return to the body,

Not to escape earth,

But to infuse it.

As that memory returns,

Say inwardly,

I remember why I came,

I choose to be here now.

Now let's welcome a different kind of healing,

Joy.

Deep within your brain lies a pathway called the dopaminergic circuit.

It flows from the ventral tegmental area to the nucleus accumbens,

A place that whispers,

This feels good,

Do this again.

For sensitive beings,

Trauma dims these lights,

Joy can feel unsafe.

But today,

We gently invite it back.

Think of a moment of lightness,

Someone laughing,

Water on your skin.

A morning with no rush.

Feel that joy trickling back into your reward system,

Gently,

Slowly.

You don't have to chase joy.

Let it return through your nervous system,

Through cellular memory.

Say inwardly,

Joy is safe,

Joy is sacred.

Now gather all the healing from this journey into your hara.

The space just below your navel,

The power core,

The sole center of gravity.

Let it seal there like a magnetic pearl.

Your healing does not need to be shared,

Explained,

Or defended.

Let it root,

Let it rest.

You may feel light,

Warm,

Weightless,

Or nothing at all.

All is perfect.

From this place,

Allow one timeline thread to shimmer in front of you.

Not one of obligation,

But of choice.

Say softly,

I choose to stay,

I choose to create,

I choose to enjoy.

Let this healing continue as long as it needs to.

You can drift deeper into rest,

Or slowly begin to return.

Wiggling fingers,

Opening eyes.

If this journey supported you,

Trust that your nervous system and soul are now walking in harmony.

You are sacred,

You are safe,

And you are seen.

Thank you for being here.
