Hello and welcome to this Insight Timer guided meditation.
Within this meditation,
I am going to guide you on a shamanic journey of connecting with the spirit animal of the buffalo.
Before diving into this meditation though,
I am going to share with you some of the qualities and gifts that come through from the spirit animal of the buffalo.
So let me share them here with you from my soul pathway Oracle Guards.
The spirit animal of the buffalo brings the message of abundance,
For it provided the Native Americans with all their earthly needs.
This is why the buffalo is seen as the most sacred of all animals in native cultures.
If you are connecting with the spirit animal of the buffalo,
Then now is a time to be grateful and thankful for all you have.
The attitude of gratitude opens doorways for you to receive abundance more freely in your life.
Take this moment to count your blessings and know that your prayers are being answered.
Remember the sacredness of your path as you honour those who walk beside you.
When buffalo travels with you,
Remain grateful and stay true to yourself.
Now let's begin this guided meditation to connect with the spirit animal of the buffalo.
I'd like you to start by taking a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth.
In through your nose and out through your mouth.
One final time,
In through your nose and out through your mouth.
And slowly allow yourself to relax,
Let go and become present and connected with this moment.
Disconnect from your mind and reconnect with your soul.
As you sit there in your chair listening to this guided meditation,
Or maybe you are laying down on your bed relaxing.
Allow yourself to relax each and every muscle and fibre in your body.
Starting with the top of your head,
Bringing that relaxation down through to your shoulders.
Relaxing your shoulders and your torso,
Bringing that relaxation further down and deeper down to your stomach.
And bringing that relaxation further down,
Even more through to your waist.
Down through your legs and all the way through to the tips of your toes.
Allow yourself to immerse in this relaxation as you feel this sense of peace and tranquility within you.
Any thoughts that are coming into your mind,
Allow them to float into your awareness and slowly drift away.
So that you can connect more deeply with your soul.
For now,
I'm going to take you on a journey of connecting with the spirit animal of the buffalo.
So I'd like for you to imagine standing there in the beautiful Native American landscape.
Open fields and a beautiful heat at which you can feel on your face.
Notice that you can also feel the earth beneath your feet.
Allow yourself to connect with your surroundings.
Take a deep breath in through your nose and smell the freshness of the air.
Imagine picturing this landscape so vividly in your mind.
And as you stand there connecting with nature,
You may begin to notice the sounds of the birds and other animals that may be around you.
Allow yourself to connect with your surroundings.
Paint the picture inside of your mind.
Feel that sense of peace and tranquility within you.
And notice that feeling and sensation that arises from within.
In a moment I'm going to be playing this beautiful shamanic drum.
To assist you with connecting with your soul,
The heartbeat nature.
Allow yourself to connect with the shamanic drum.
Notice how it synchronizes with your own heartbeat.
As you begin connecting with your soul.
You may notice and feel the vibration of the drum.
Which is really igniting your soul.
And connecting with you,
Your gifts,
Your talents.
And the spirit animal of the buffalo.
Which guides you to connect with that sense of abundance within you.
Now I'd like you to imagine walking through these open plains.
Connecting with the freshness of the air.
And mother nature.
In the knowing that mother nature is always there to guide and assist you.
Provide you with unconditional love.
And assist you on life's journey.
You may notice the beautiful red rocks.
That appear on the horizon.
As you notice them.
You begin to notice that you're connecting with the native Americans.
And you're connecting with that native culture that exists within you.
Notice how this makes you feel.
As you picture it in your mind's eye.
As you walk across the open plains.
You may also notice in the distance.
A herd of buffalo.
Just roaming free across these open plains.
As you notice these buffalo.
You may be called to connect with them in this moment.
So allow yourself to slowly and steadily walk up to this herd of buffalo.
In the knowing that they are comfortable in your presence.
As you are comfortable with them.
The buffalo is known as the most sacred of all animals in these native cultures.
So I'd like for you to admire the sacredness of this beautiful animal.
As it guides you to connect with your soul.
Slowly move closer to the herd of buffalo.
And notice that they just stop in front of you.
And as they stop in front of you.
You may notice a buffalo is connecting specifically with you.
As you connect deeply with it.
Notice this beautiful and majestic animal.
As it looks you in the eye.
And you connect deeply in the eyes of the buffalo too.
Feel that connectedness with one and self.
Notice the fur on the backs of these beautiful animals.
And the strength at which the buffalo carries.
In this moment.
I'd like you to imagine floating in to the body of the buffalo.
As you begin to float inside of the body.
Notice and feel the energy at which it brings you.
For buffalo brings you the message of abundance.
For it provided all of the native Americans with all of their earthly needs.
So as you notice connecting with the buffalo.
Know that deep down your earthly needs are met in this moment.
And you know that you are safe and secure as you walk with the buffalo.
Now I'd like you to imagine through the body of the buffalo.
Running amongst the herd.
Feeling that sense of freedom and connection with mother earth.
Knowing that each and every one of us are connected.
As we are connected with the two legged creatures.
And the four legged creatures.
Of all the animals.
And there is enough abundance and resources for each and every one of us.
And as you connect with that message.
You notice that you can be thankful for all you have.
Thankful for all the blessings in your life.
All the trials and tribulations that you've been through.
For they've all assisted you in becoming who you are.
And shaping you into the person you are today.
Notice that the attitude of gratitude opens the doorway for you to receive abundance much more freely in your life.
Take a moment to stop there.
And count your blessings.
And know that your prayers are being answered.
In this moment I'd like for you to acknowledge the sacredness of your path.
As you honour the sacredness of this beautiful animal.
Of the buffalo.
As you honour the sacredness of your path.
You can begin to honour the sacredness of those who have been blessed by you.
And the sacredness of those who walk beside you.
Know that when buffalo is with you.
Abundance can flow freely in your life.
It will allow you to connect,
Yourself to connect.
With this free flowing abundance.
Now what I'd like for you to do.
Is sit there and connect with the buffalo.
Feel that sense of freedom,
Gratitude,
Strength and abundance that comes from this buffalo.
And once again,
Count your blessings.
As you know the attitude of gratitude opens doorways.
To receive much more abundance in your life.
Remember who you are and the gifts that come through from the buffalo.
In a moment I'd like for you to float out of the body of the buffalo.
As you float back into your own body.
As you reconnect with your soul.
And notice the abundance that resides within you.
As you reflect upon your own life and journey.
Notice the gifts that come through within your life.
As you know that each and every one of your earthly needs is being met.
As you stand there in your body.
Now as you sit there in your body.
I'd like for you to imagine yourself.
As an ancient tribal Native American.
Who lived amongst the buttered buffalo.
Imagine sitting by the campfire.
And the teepee just behind you.
As you imagine doing so.
Allow yourself to connect with the warmth of the fire.
As you connect with mother nature.
You may notice in this moment.
That it's a cool night.
And the fire is keeping you warm.
And around your back to clothe you.
Is the fur of the buffalo.
Notice at this time.
This buffalo is there to assist you.
To keep you warm through the depth of the winter.
Notice above the fire.
There is the buffalo.
The buffalo there to provide you with all the nourishment you need.
To provide you with the abundance.
To survive through winter.
And notice the tools at which you are using.
In your life.
In this moment of time.
As you notice the bones of the buffalo.
Assisting you in life.
And on your journey.
Know that each and every aspect of the buffalo is used.
For it provides all of the natives with their earthly needs.
And this is a message for you.
To know that your earthly needs are met.
If only you allow yourself to honour.
The sacredness of your path.
And the sacredness of this beautiful animal.
Of the buffalo.
Always remember.
The attitude of gratitude.
Allows you to open doorways.
To receive abundance.
More freely in your life.
And notice these beautiful and incredible gifts.
That come through from the buffalo.
In a moment I would like for you to float back inside of your own body.
As you slowly come back to this present moment.
And connect with the now.
Bringing all of this to you.
Bringing all of these gifts with you.
Abundance,
Gratitude,
Blessings.
And the beautiful gift of life.
As you walk this sacred path.
And you honour those who walk beside you.
Take a deep breath in through your nose.
And out through your mouth.
In through your nose.
And out through your mouth.
And allow yourself to come back to now.
