Welcome yourself into this moment,
Get into a comfortable space,
Maybe that's sitting or laying down.
Rock your head side to side and really just settle in to this moment,
And if it feels right close your eyes,
Take a deep breath in and let it go.
Start at the crown of your head,
Imagining a big bright light is shining there from the divine.
That big bright light shines over your face as you relax your jaw and your brow.
The light continues to shine over your face as it extends down to your shoulders and chest as you release tension in your shoulders dropping them away from your ears.
Maybe nodding your head yes and shaking your head no.
This bright light extends onto your torso,
Your hips and legs as you release tension here and feel the support of whatever is beneath you.
Relax your toes,
Your fingers.
An excerpt from the book Journey to the Heart says,
Value your passion.
For too long we have wrongly judged our passion,
Our passion for living,
Our vitality and zest for places,
People,
Things and ideas.
I shouldn't have what I want.
I shouldn't say what I like.
I shouldn't get too excited.
What helps us come to life?
What takes us out of the motions and into our emotions?
What connects us to the energy of life,
The energy of love,
The energy of the life force that permeates us all?
All your growth,
All your work has not been to lead you away from your passions,
To turn you into a robot.
It has been to bring you back to life,
To put you in touch with the vital energy of the universe,
An energy that permeates all that is,
An energy that permeates you.
Honor your passion by honoring your emotions.
Feeling your emotions releases passion into life.
Feel them,
Feel them all.
Then you will know what you like,
What instills passion in you.
Once you know and can recognize that,
You'll know which direction to go.
Expressing passion and gratitude will guide your life.
Say it again and again.
Say it until you believe it.
Say it until you live it.
Take a moment here to think of an affirmation that may come to you about your passion,
About your drive for what truly belongs to you.
Maybe you don't know what your passion is yet,
But you know what passion is.
Maybe you're not passionate about something in particular,
But you know there's something bigger for you.
You know that your heart shines greater than just where you are now.
There is more for you.
You are meant to do more.
Now repeat that affirmation out loud to yourself.
It may feel overwhelming thinking about passions and future,
But just know you already have made the next step by being here.
Now breathe that in.
Repeat this affirmation.
I slow down and listen to the guidance that's available to me.
You don't need to do everything at once,
And you don't need to have it all figured out right now.
Just make that one step forward.
You made that step today.
Now just do it again.
You will get there.
It will take time,
But you will get there.
Don't overwhelm yourself with everything at once.
You are capable of big things,
One small thing at a time.
Start to notice the you that's here now versus the you that showed up today.
Notice how you feel.
Note if it was easy for you to get into a meditative state or if you are fighting thoughts most of the time.
Either way,
This was beneficial.
Start to notice the sounds in the room around you.
How the air in the room feels on your skin.
Maybe how it feels to touch your clothes with your body.
Remember the light that was shining on you a few minutes ago.
That light is still shining on you.
You may not have noticed,
But you are always being guided by the divine.
Just slow down,
Relax,
And let go.
One small step at a time.
Begin to flutter your eyes open if they were closed.
Remember that you are enough just as you are.
You are capable of big things.
Just being is enough.
With all my love.
