This meditation is inspired by the ego,
Or self,
From the book Summoning the Guardians Architects of the Subconscious Mind.
It is designed to help you unlock creativity and reconnect with divine wisdom during times of mental stagnation.
Take a seat or lie down in a comfortable position,
Relax,
And prepare to embark on this transformative experience.
Let's take a moment to connect with your present space.
Look around you and take note of something you can see.
Now notice something you can smell,
Something you can feel,
And finally,
Something you can hear.
With each observation,
Allow yourself to become more grounded in this moment.
Now close your eyes as I guide your breath,
Shifting your focus from your physical space to a space within.
Again,
Inhale deeply as I count to five,
One,
Two,
Three,
Four,
Five.
Now exhale slowly,
One,
Two,
Three,
Four,
Five.
Again,
Inhale,
Exhale.
With each inhale,
Feel yourself letting go of your surroundings.
With each exhale,
Bring your focus inward,
Centering yourself.
Inhale,
Feel the cool air entering your lungs.
Exhale,
Notice your body beginning to relax.
Inhale,
And take note of the stillness between breaths.
Exhale,
And feel yourself settling into peace.
Now,
Imagine a gentle tap on your forehead.
As you feel this sensation,
A brilliant indigo light fills your vision,
Spreading throughout your body with waves of calm and clarity.
You feel yourself begin to rise,
Floating upward,
Gently and effortlessly.
Below,
You can see yourself sitting in the center of the maze.
As you float higher,
More of the maze comes into view.
It stretches endlessly,
Its intricate paths winding in all directions.
You marvel at how massive it is,
With more turns than you could have even imagined.
You think back on your journey,
Remembering how overwhelming it felt at the start.
So many options,
So many decisions.
It's no wonder it was so difficult.
But then you recall the moment everything changed,
When you stopped chasing and simply listened.
You remember how effortless it became,
When you trusted your gut and let love guide you.
As this memory comes into focus,
You watch yourself down below at the entrance of the maze.
You recognize this as the moment you closed your eyes and felt that initial tap on your forehead.
Something incredible happens.
You watch as a golden path begins to appear,
Winding through the maze.
It's clear and undeniable,
Lighting the way forward.
This is the path that guided you when you followed your heart,
When you let go of striving and embraced the joy of simply being.
Watching yourself effortlessly glide through each turn,
You feel a deep sense of encouragement and inspiration.
You weren't searching aimlessly.
You were going with the flow,
Letting intuition guide you.
You weren't looking for answers outside of yourself.
You were finding them within.
As you reflect on this,
A wave of love,
Joy,
And peace washes over you,
Filling every part of your being.
Slowly,
Your consciousness begins to descend back down to your body,
With a clear understanding of how you ended up in the center of the maze.
When you return to your body,
You feel grounded and renewed.
The ego speaks once more,
Leaving you with these parting words.
Remember,
When you feel stuck,
Lost,
Or in search of answers,
Stop and go within.
Focus on your breath.
Let go of distractions.
I am your connection to the divine.
And when you go within,
I will ensure inspiration flows like water.
As the ego disappears into the golden column of light,
You reflect on their words.
You think back to all the times inspiration has struck you in the past,
Those seemingly random moments when ideas seemed to come out of nowhere.
But now,
You realize they weren't random at all.
They came when you were quiet,
Still,
And open enough to notice them.
You smile,
Recalling the ideas and solutions that came to you in the shower,
As if they were flowing with the water from your divine connection.
You feel confident knowing the answers are always within reach,
As long as you take the time to pause and allow them to flow.
As you bask in this feeling of abundance and joy,
It's time to begin bringing your awareness back to your current space.
Take a deep breath and listen for the sounds around you.
Notice any sense in your space.
Feel the surfaces around you,
The chair you're sitting on,
The ground beneath you.
When you're ready,
Take another deep breath and slowly open your eyes.
Let them adjust,
And as you look around,
Take note of something you can see.
Feel yourself fully present in this moment,
Carrying the inspiration and clarity you've gained with you as you go about your day.
Thank you for taking the time to pause,
Reflect,
And journey inward.
Be well.
