Welcome to this meditation that you could really do every single day.
The intention of this specific meditation is to increase neuroplasticity,
But know that meditation in and of itself is one of the most powerful tools for increasing neuroplasticity.
And the reason neuroplasticity,
The flexibility of the brain and the mind is so important is because the more pliable the mind,
The more expanded and opened the mind,
The easier it is for us to let go of beliefs that no longer serve our highest good and form new ones that do.
And the leading cause for an inability to increase neuroplasticity.
Is stress.
And therefore literally just tapping into meditation,
A short one even,
Every single day has the ability to truly change your life.
So take a moment to find your way into a comfortable seat.
Relaxing the shoulders,
Softening the eyes.
Releasing any tension in the jaw and the mouth.
And just feeling the sense of relaxation wash over you and through you.
As we feel the extension of the spine,
The crown of the head toward the sky.
So that we are in the space of softness,
Of relaxation.
But at the same time,
We are awake,
Aware,
And alert.
Drawing our awareness deeper inward to the breath now.
And taking this opportunity to really feel your body breathe.
Feel your body breathe.
In and out through the nose.
Continuing to relax the mouth and the jaw and the eyes and the shoulders.
Telling the body it's okay to soften.
We are in a safe place.
Can fully surrender into the mode of relaxation.
As we deepen the breath in.
And lengthen the breath out.
Still feeling that extension of the spinal column in the crown of the head symbolizing alertness.
And awakeness.
As you tell your mind,
Your body,
Your spirit that it's okay to be focused.
Right here and now.
That it's safe to be present.
So often the mind wanders to the past or to the future.
Because we don't feel safe and secure.
In this moment.
So often the body tenses up because we don't feel safe and secure in this moment.
And so we simply.
Draw our awareness deeper inward to the breath now,
Even deeper inward to the breath.
As you breathe in,
Repeat silently,
I am breathing in.
As you breathe out,
Repeat silently,
I am breathing out.
I am breathing in.
I am breathing out.
I am breathing in.
I am breathing out.
I am breathing in.
I am breathing out One more time.
I am breathing in,
I am breathing out.
Just letting go of the mantra.
Just letting go even now,
The focus on the breath.
Be here now.
Fully aware.
Yet completely relaxed.
Fully tuned in.
Completely soft.
Be here now.
Be here now.
Giving ourselves this little retreat.
From how we so typically live our lives on the move and on the go,
Physically,
Mentally.
Spiritually,
Energetically.
Transforming.
Our brains literally by just sitting right here.
Right here,
Right now.
So often in our lives,
We feel like we need to add more things to our toolkits.
We need to do more activities in order to increase neuroplasticity or become healthier,
Whatever it may be.
But know the most efficient and effective way.
To increase neuroplasticity,
And to form new beliefs,
And to ultimately create the life of your dreams.
Is by doing what you're doing right here and now.
Now of course other things are required,
But it begins here.
We can't skip this step.
We cannot skip this step.
Be here now.
And just when you think you've gotten enough out of this meditation.
Could you be here now?
Deepen the inhale.
Lengthen the exhale.
Deepen the inhale.
Lengthen the exhale.
One more deep breath in.
Long breath out.
All day today.
Be here.
Namaste.
