Begin by finding a comfortable position.
Seated or lying down.
However your body is calling to rest right now.
Let your hands open gently in your lap.
Palms facing upward.
This is the posture of receiving.
Of openness,
Of trust.
Now close your eyes.
Take one slow breath in through the nose.
And let it fall out through your mouth,
Not forcing anything.
Just allowing.
Take another breath.
And as you exhale,
Feel your body grow heavier,
Softer,
More at ease.
You don't need to do anything right now.
You don't need to figure anything out.
You don't need to be anywhere.
Other than exactly here.
This is a moment for you to remember something that has always been true.
Bring your awareness to the space around your heart.
Not to the physical organ.
But to the warm luminous center of your chest.
Imagine a gentle golden light resting there.
Like the last ember of a fire.
Quiet,
Steady,
Alive.
This light is not something you created.
It was placed within you before you took your first breath.
Is the part of you that has never been hurt.
Never been lost.
Never needed.
Prove itself.
It is the part of you that is divine.
With every breath in,
Feel this light grow a little warmer.
A little brighter.
Not forcing it.
Just allowing it to expand as you breathe.
And with every exhale,
Let everything that is not this light soften and fall away.
Now imagine,
Above you,
An infinite field of light.
Vast,
Boundless,
Utterly still.
It has no edges.
No ceiling.
It simply is.
Everywhere.
Always.
This is source energy.
The field from which all things come and to which all things return.
And it knows you.
Imagine a thread of this light.
Like a soft silver cord descending gently toward you.
Moving through the crown of your head down through your throat.
Into that golden center in your chest.
You are not separate.
From this field.
You never were.
Feel yourself being held by something far greater.
Than anything your mind can name.
An intelligence that loves you.
Without condition.
That has always loved you without condition.
Let yourself be held.
You are not a human being searching for the divine.
You are the divine.
Remembering itself in human form.
I will offer you a series of truths now.
You don't need to believe them fully yet.
Simply allow them to land.
Let them echo through you like sound in a sacred space.
Breathe with me.
I am a vessel of divine light.
I am held,
Guided,
And deeply loved by a force greater than I can comprehend.
I am the sacred,
Feminine,
Ancient,
Wise and whole.
I am worthy of all that is good simply because I exist.
I am the source of my own becoming.
I am safe to be fully unapologetically.
Myself.
I am connected to the infinite.
I am love.
I am light.
I am here.
Rest here for a moment.
Notice how your body feels.
Notice the quality of the air around you.
Notice the stillness inside you.
Their stillness is always available to you.
Not just in meditation but in the in-between moments of your ordinary days.
In the breath before you speak,
In the pause before you decide.
The divine is not somewhere far away.
Waiting to be reached.
The divine lives in you.
It breathes through you.
Sees the world through your eyes.
When you're ready,
Begin to deepen your breath.
Let your fingers gently move.
Feel the weight of your body against the earth.
Grounded.
Present.
Take one final deep breath in.
Filling all the way up.
And release.
And when you're ready,
Softly open your eyes.
Welcome back and welcome home.
