So,
As we settle in,
Take a moment to relax.
When you're ready,
I'll invite you to close your eyes,
Take a deep breath in,
Take a deep breath out,
Letting go of anything that's come before this,
Anything that is to come.
Just settling into the present moment.
And as you begin to get more and more relaxed,
Simply notice that you are and have always had a part of you that's connected to the jungle,
That's connected.
It's creativity,
It's flexibility,
It's adaptability,
It's fire for play.
And as this playful,
Curious energy begins to stir inside of you,
You might notice how naturally your creative fire wants to expand,
To branch out,
To take risk,
To play in the fire,
To dance in the ever-changing movement of life.
Now,
If it's comfortable for you,
Begin to place your hands gently on your heart,
Your loving heart that contains your natural radiance,
Your inner sun,
Your love center that wants nothing more than for you to live from joy,
From delight,
From a place of authentic expression.
And as you breathe into this space,
You can feel this authority that you're claiming for yourself,
This willingness,
This expanding courage.
Notice how your energy naturally wants to discover,
To collaborate,
To synthesize and transform.
You can already sense yourself moving beyond that familiar mask,
That mask from your past,
Those parts that once feared their own magnificent power.
There is something sacred stirring within you now,
A desire that wants to be claimed,
To be honored,
To be seen.
Like polished jewelry reflecting light,
You amplify brilliance,
Not just in the obvious ways your body moves through space,
But more importantly,
In the elegant way that your mind works.
It's in the courageous way you carry your unique vision.
It's in the illuminated way you approach your creative calling.
And as you expand through this courage,
Your creative desires begin to transform.
What you want to create matters.
What ignites your artistic spirit,
What causes your heart to quicken with possibility,
This is intelligence.
You are taking your inner fire and allowing it to become refined.
In the past,
You may have learned to make your creative hunger more palatable,
To trim your visions so that they fit quote-unquote boxes.
But more and more you feel that that is an energy that is behind you.
You can even notice that as you breathe now,
There's a freshness and aliveness that has so much more capacity for the new and the unknown.
In fact,
The old limitations are slowly falling away.
Thank yourself for having the bravery and the humility to show up exactly as you are.
And show gratitude for all the ways that you are already embodying your newest and highest form of expression.
And when you feel ready,
Take a deep breath in,
Let out a sigh,
And gently open your eyes.
