Once you are comfortable with your eyes open,
Breathe in knowing that you are breathing in.
As you breathe out,
Feel a sense of release as you are fully aware that you are breathing out.
Breathing in,
You know that you are breathing in.
Breathing out,
You know that you are breathing out.
You feel the shift in your body,
A recognition,
A remembering that when your mind delves into the awareness of your breath that your body reacts in a calming way.
The more we practice breath awareness,
The easier it becomes.
And the more that we practice breath awareness,
The mind calms as it no longer feels threatened at endeavouring to empty the thoughts.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
So simple,
Yet so profound.
When you are ready,
Gently close your eyes.
And with your eyes closed,
You continue to follow your breath in and out.
Do not force the breath.
Do not try to create a deeper breath.
But rather become the witness.
Observe the natural rhythm of your breathing.
The less you try,
The easier it will become.
The less you force,
The more you will find your natural rhythm.
If your mind is wandering,
See those thoughts like clouds in the sky.
You do not push them away,
Yet you do not enter into them.
They seem to drift through your mind,
Through your conscious awareness,
And then drift into the distance.
The one thing that is constant within your focus is your intention and your breath.
Slowly you bring your awareness to where your lips touch.
And as you exhale,
Bringing a softness to your jaw and to your lips.
As you exhale,
You become aware of a softening of your tongue and a deeper release through your jaw.
Then you drift up into the awareness of your temples and your forehead.
And as you exhale,
A feeling of letting go of the tension that you hold in the upper portion of your skull.
Breathing out,
Giving yourself permission to let go.
Breathing in with the awareness of the breath.
As you feel the release from the upper portion of your skull,
You feel your jaw let go on a deeper level.
A deeper sense of softness comes to your tongue and your lips.
And your breath becomes easier as your body begins to respond to relaxation.
Slowly you become aware of where your eyelids touch,
Aware that your eyes are closed,
And as your focus drifts into that portion of your face,
A gentle pale pink mist appears in your mind.
You feel your essence shift,
Your physical body still and relaxed.
But your mind's eye and your essence begins to drift through a soft powdery pink mist.
You feel your energy drift through a gossamer curtain.
And in your mind's eye before your eyes,
You are witnessing as you drift through a starlit night.
Billions of stars are all around you.
Bright,
Different colors,
Different sizes.
Some appear very close.
Others seem to be at the edge of the galaxy.
Without trying,
Without force,
You seem to drift weightless through the stars.
You marvel at the wonder,
The feeling of expansion,
The feeling of bliss.
You are able to see the earth.
You see the earth in its entirety and you see from where you are amongst the stars the oneness of all who call her home.
From this sacred space there are no borders,
No countries.
You just see the incredible beauty of the earth.
In that moment of truly feeling the love and expanding consciousness on the planet,
You notice in the distance a gently moving star.
You lift your gaze from the earth and watch as this brilliant bright magenta glow begins to move towards you.
Larger and larger this star appears.
As it passes the earth,
The glow of its energy washes over the planet and you see its color becoming brighter and clearer the closer it comes to you.
This brilliant star gently stops in front of you.
It is enormous and you drift at the very edge of its light.
You reach out and you touch the magenta energy and the moment your hand touches it you feel its gift.
A wave of compassion flows through you and you notice how the energy that you touched,
Your touch created a ripple.
The waves of compassion that flow through you bring you joy,
A sense of freedom,
A sense of understanding,
A deep sense of peace.
As you peer into the color of the star you are aware of its different shades.
Some of the soft pinks through to brilliant pinks and the very epicenter of the star where the magenta is at its strongest is the brightest color of all.
The star is so welcoming its energy seems to draw you within and without effort you drift into the outer rings of the star.
Waves of love move through you.
In the depth of the compassion you feel the understanding.
There is a sense of forgiveness,
Of letting go of expectation.
You feel expanded within yourself,
A deep sense of forgiveness,
Self-acceptance,
Of honoring who you really are.
You drift deeper within the star.
The magenta color and energy becoming stronger the closer that you gain to the epicenter of the star.
You feel the heartbeat of the star and as you drift a little deeper once again you find yourself.
Waves of stillness,
Waves of love and a deep knowing.
You feel the wisdom coming from within you,
An understanding of ancient wondrous gifts.
Never before in the history of humanity has it been more important to truly practice compassion.
But as always the shift,
The change,
The growth it begins with ourselves.
The waves of compassion that you feel are an acceptance of yourself.
Of honoring your divinity and in honoring your divinity the feeling and the knowing that you are honoring all.
You feel the movement through your chest,
The glow of the magenta moving through you and again without effort you begin to drift closer to the heart of the star.
As you reach the inner sanctum of the star of compassion the energy shifts and it feels as though you are laying on a bed of soft feathers.
The energy is so light,
So kind,
So loving.
You are laying there held by pure love.
There is nothing to try,
There is nothing to force,
There is no effort,
There is no perfection,
There is just you in your entirety.
Love and you are aware that as you lay at the center of the star that every breath creates a ripple of compassion which is rippling out from you,
From the heart.
You are on the star and the magenta glow is moving across the universe.
Within you the expansion is enormous,
A true and deep sense of healing,
A true and deep sense of knowing.
From where you lay in the heart of the star you begin to witness the energy moving around you.
You witness the colors as they dance and twirl gently and slowly around you.
Then you feel the breath lead you and you begin to move from the heartbeat of the star back out towards its edges.
Magenta all around you,
Magenta through you.
You are just inside the energy of the star and as you look out into the galaxy for as far as far as you could imagine you see billions upon billions of other stars and before your eyes each one of those stars begins to turn into the most beautiful magenta color.
You are witnessing the shift,
The conscious change towards compassion and love.
Each star representing a divine soul who chooses compassion,
A divine soul who chooses love.
Before you leave the sanctuary of the energy of your star you take a moment of gratitude and blessing for its gifts.
And then choosing with the courage of the heart you drift from the star back out into the night sky and one by one you continue to watch as more stars shift into compassion.
And one by one we witness the conscious shift of our universe.
But it begins with each one of us choosing love,
Choosing compassion,
Choosing forgiveness and choosing peace.
As you drift through the blanket of stars once more you see our beloved planet Earth.
And you see as each of these stars shines brightly onto the earth.
Constantly our earth is being shared love and compassion.
Raining through in the light that is transforming and shifting into pure light.
Slowly you are aware of descending and you feel yourself drift back through the gossamer curtain and back into the awareness of your body.
Of where you lay or sit and with your eyes closed you embrace the feeling of calm that you feel through yourself.
Gently bring your left hand to your heart,
Feel your beating heart,
Let it remind you of how precious your life is and how unique and special you are in the world.
Slowly you become aware of your hands and feet and when you feel ready moving through your hands a deep breath in and as you breathe out gently opening your eyes.
Becoming aware of your surrounds and gently and deeply moving into being fully awake and grounded.
Ready to embrace what wondrous gifts your life will give you and share with you.
