Hi there,
Arielle June here.
I'm so happy that you've decided to join me for this meditation to help you reconnect or deepen your connection to your intuition.
That makes me really happy.
This is good,
Important,
Necessary work for us to do as we're working through our inner healing journey.
So I hope that this supports you today.
I hope that this helps reconnect or again deepen that connection to your intuition.
And I just want to remind you now that it is in you.
So however close to it or far from it you feel,
It is in you.
Let's begin.
I invite you to make yourself comfortable.
You're welcome to take a cross-legged seat as I am in,
Or you can sit on your knees.
You can even sit in a chair or lie down.
Whatever posture feels most supportive and most comfortable to you today.
Once you've chosen that posture,
Settle in.
Make any final adjustments you need to your body,
To your clothes,
To your hair.
And once you've done so,
Settle into some stillness.
And close your eyes.
Right away I want to invite you to tune in to your breath.
Just notice the sensation of the breath in your body.
No need to modify the breath in any way.
Just notice it as it is.
Over the next few breaths,
I invite you to deepen your breath.
Ever so slightly begin to take deeper,
Fuller inhales.
And deeper,
More releasing exhales.
As you do so,
Notice the expansion in the body.
Notice the release in the body.
Take a couple more deep breaths just like that,
Settling into the felt sensations in the body.
You're welcome to return your breathing to its natural rhythm.
And next I'll invite you to conduct a body scan,
Starting from the very top of your head,
Slowly winding all the way down the body toward the feet.
And as you do so,
I invite you to notice any areas in the body where you're holding any tension.
Maybe in the jaw or in the shoulders or in the low back or legs.
As you slowly wind down the body,
Seeing if you can observe those areas of tension with some gentleness,
Some warmth,
Some friendliness.
And then gently see if you can release some of that tension as you make your way toward your feet.
Take your time with this body scan.
Once you've made it all the way down,
Allow your attention to rest on the feet.
Next,
I'll invite you to conduct another body scan,
A little different this time.
This time starting from the feet and slowly winding up the entire body.
But instead of looking for any areas of tension in your body,
I invite you to look for areas within your physical being where you feel open,
Where you feel at ease and at home.
So again,
Slowly wind up the body starting at the feet,
Looking for those areas of openness,
Winding all the way up until you reach the crown of the head.
Once you do so,
Allowing the attention to rest on the crown of the head.
We'll meet back there all together again in a few more breaths.
Now,
That we've checked in with the body,
Gently observing any areas of tension and observing any areas of openness,
I invite you to accept this experience as it is.
Now drawing your attention back to the breath once again,
Allowing your attention to land wherever you feel the sensation of the breath the most.
That could be in your stomach or maybe in your rib cage or perhaps in your chest or in your nose.
There's no right or wrong answer.
Notice where you feel the sensation of your breath the strongest and allow your attention to land there.
We'll be here for about 10 or so breaths.
In that time,
Your mind will most likely wander off and I want to remind you that that is more than okay,
That is welcome.
I invite you to meet any distraction with gentleness,
With warmth,
With friendliness and then to gently guide your attention back to the breath.
Again we'll rest here,
Attention on the breath and the body for 10 or so breaths.
Meditation.
We'll just be here for a few more breaths.
So again,
If your attention has wandered,
Meet your distraction with friendliness and then gently guide your attention back to the breath for just a few more moments.
And next,
I want you to invite you to check in with your intuition.
I invite you to ask yourself,
Where in my body do I feel most grounded,
Most at ease,
Most connected to my intuition?
Ask yourself that and notice where in the body you feel any of those sensations,
Any of that groundedness.
Pause here for a few moments,
Allowing the body,
Allowing the intuition to speak to us.
Now,
If you found that place in the body where you feel grounded,
At ease,
At home,
Connected to your intuition,
I invite you to rest in that place,
To really explore the physical sensations of being so connected,
To just allow yourself to rest there.
If on the other hand,
You're having any difficulty locating that place in the body where you feel grounded,
Connected,
At home,
Again,
That is not only okay,
That is welcome.
That is just as much a part of the process as anything else.
What we're doing here is really learning what our intuition feels like in the body.
So if you haven't felt that physical sensation in your body yet,
Again,
Greet that feeling of not knowing with some warmth and some friendliness.
And maybe ask yourself,
Where in my body might I feel that way?
Can I create some space within myself,
Some openness to that feeling?
And rest in the knowledge that it is in you and that the more you quiet down to listen,
The more you're giving it an opportunity to make itself known.
Wherever you've landed,
If you found that place or if you're still sitting and waiting for it,
Rest.
Be with that feeling.
We'll be here for another eight to 10 breaths.
Two to ten breaths.
Know that this feeling of groundedness,
This feeling of connection to your intuition in the body is always available to you at any moment.
And know if you haven't felt it just yet that it is again already in you waiting to be discovered.
I invite you to take a deep breath here in through the nose,
Inside out the mouth.
Feel that connection.
Another deep inhale in through the nose.
And again,
Side out the mouth.
Last one,
Even deeper in through the nose,
Fill up all the way.
Pause it full.
Take in another sip of air and side out the mouth.
Allow your attention to return to the breath.
Allow your breath to return to its natural rhythm.
Begin to bring some small movements into your fingertips and toes,
Maybe finding a gentle sway from side to side.
Slowly coming back into the body,
Into the present moment.
As you're ready,
You're welcome to blink the eyes back open.
Reacquaint yourself with the space around you.
Thank you again for practicing with me today.
Thank you for taking the time to reconnect or deepen your connection to your intuition.
It is so important and so invaluable.
If there's any other inner healing work that you are in the midst of,
Now is a great time to dive into that.
And this connected place is such a good place to do some of that work.
So if you want to dive into journaling,
Working through something,
Another visualization of some sort,
Now is a great time to do so.
Or if you're getting back to your day,
I wish you a lovely,
Connected rest of your day.
Either way,
Whatever you've got going on next,
I wish you well.
Stay connected.
It is in you.
Take care.
