Accessing Your Inner Wisdom
by Bex Thompson
We all have a deep Inner Wisdom that resides within us. This wisdom keeps our heart beating, our lungs breathing & tends to any cuts, bruises, or illness in our physical body without us even thinking about it. This same Inner Wisdom is responsible for connecting with our intuition, our gut instincts. Many of us have lost this connection as we reside more in our Mind than our Body. In this meditation, you will be guided back into your inner stillness so you can access this amazing Wisdom...

Hello and welcome to this Rise to Shine meditation.
I'm Becks Thompson and thank you for allowing me to be your guide here today.
In today's meditation we are going to tap into our inner wisdom.
Our inner wisdom is something we all possess within us.
But sometimes it is hard to hear over the mindless chatter of our mind.
So I invite you now to find a comfortable position,
Either sitting up or laying down.
As you begin to relax your body,
Begin to relax your mind.
And as you are finding your point of comfort,
Just allow me to introduce your inner wisdom as you settle into relaxing.
Our inner wisdom is something we all possess as children,
But perhaps lost as adults.
It is usually replaced by our logical,
Our analytical mind.
Our inner wisdom is the deepest wisdom we hold within.
The wisdom that keeps our hearts beating,
That keeps our lungs breathing,
That heals us,
Tends to us when we have any cuts,
Bruises or illness.
All these things are taken care of in our physical body without us even having to think about it.
It is also the part of us that has this deep sense of knowing.
You may have experienced it before,
When you have felt intuitive in the pit of your stomach.
Maybe you have had goosebumps.
It is something we have all experienced at some point in time.
We often feel it on a body level long before our awareness catches up.
Some people can tap into our inner wisdom easily,
But just like any muscle,
The more we practice,
The stronger this grows.
So here in today's meditation,
We look to strengthen that connection with your deep inner wisdom.
We will really turn up the volume on your inner voice,
Your inner wisdom,
So that you can connect deeper to the truth of who you really are and just what you are capable of.
Once we allow ourselves to sit in the silence,
The answers you seek will rise to the surface just like hot air balloons.
They will enter your consciousness and quietly give you those aha moments of true understanding.
So now that you are aware of this inner wisdom that resides within you,
Let's begin our meditation.
If you haven't done so already,
I invite you to close down your eyes,
Shutting off your lenses to the outside world as you begin to bring your focus inwards.
Taking a few deep,
Releasing breaths as you take this moment to find stillness within your physical body.
As you take these deep cleansing breaths,
Remembering that this is your sacred time.
This is your time to connect with you.
There is nothing you need to consciously take care of or engage in.
You can just fully relax,
Sinking,
Surrendering into the surface below,
Allowing yourself to enter a deep,
Deep state of total relaxation,
Of total rejuvenation,
Feeling your body go limp and heavy as you completely surrender now.
You may be aware there is still some movement in your body,
Noticing your chest,
Your tummy rising and falling in perfect unison with your breath.
Just observing this as you bring your body deeper and deeper into complete stillness,
Noticing the subtleness of your breath as you breathe in and out.
Just observing how beautifully this movement integrates,
Integrates into you finding your complete stillness within,
Allowing a few deep breaths now in the silence,
Breathing in and out.
And with your body now in complete stillness,
In your mind's eye,
Just imagine holding a candle in front of you now.
You are in a deep,
Deep cave where everything is dark around you.
The only light is the light from the orange,
Red,
Yellow flame that is flickering in front of you right now.
And although it is dark all around,
You feel completely safe,
Guided by this light.
And take a moment to really look at that light,
Observing this candle in front of your eyes.
And as you observe it,
You feel its warmth.
You feel its light beginning to flow through your entire body.
Every muscle within begins to soften even further,
Giving way to this feeling of complete comfort,
Complete ease.
Feeling your face muscles relaxing,
Your jaw unclenching as this warmth from the light moves through your body.
Feeling all tension melting out of your shoulders,
Your neck,
And feel that light now moving down your back,
Down your chest,
Down your arms.
Feeling yourself completely letting go,
Allowing that light,
The warmth,
To move down your body,
Flowing down your hips,
Your pelvis,
Down your legs,
Your quads,
Your calves,
Down into your feet,
And feel that light all the way down to your beautiful toes.
Feeling this warmth now radiating through your entire body as your body feels so light,
So free,
Completely relaxed.
As you are so relaxed,
Holding this magical candle that radiates through you,
It is time to begin your journey into tranquility.
Knowing at this time we can trust our body just as we trust our body when we sleep,
Knowing it will work under the guidance of our innate wisdom within.
As you stand here in the dark cave holding this flickering candle,
You can feel the damp air surrounding you.
It feels cool on your body,
You cannot see too far ahead,
So you need to rely on your other senses,
Trusting that they will see you right.
In the distance you can hear some water trickling down the cave walls,
You can hear the drip,
Drip echoing through the enclosed walls.
And although you feel nervous,
You have this great sense of excitement,
A great sense of anticipation of what lays ahead for your journey today.
You begin to walk through the cave feeling like an explorer,
Just like when you were a child,
So curious,
So excited to imagine what promising find you will discover on your adventure here today.
Knowing that the light guides you well,
And you remember it is important to let this light guide you.
As you walk ahead,
You come to a crossroads where the path splits in two,
Without even thinking about it,
You continue down the path on the right.
And although both paths look identical,
You wonder,
Why did I take the right path?
For a moment you begin to worry,
You begin to doubt your decision.
Until you notice,
The candle,
The light that you are holding,
Is flickering,
Burning even stronger than it was before.
In this way,
You know that yes,
You have taken the right path.
So often we learn to discount our instinct,
We learn to discount our instinctal thoughts and feelings.
We learn to distrust them,
Ignore them,
As our logical mind likes to take over.
But today,
In the depths of this cave,
We cannot rely on logic.
And we know that our knowing will always guide us into good things.
Our higher self is allowed to be heard here today.
That wise knowing that resides deep within is beginning to be utilized once again.
As you look at this candle,
At this light,
Your only guide here today,
You are learning to trust,
To remember,
To strengthen and reconnect to your deep inner wisdom.
You are beginning to get really clear about what it is you think,
What it is you feel,
And knowing that this will never see you wrong.
So many of us suffer from this disconnect from our higher wisdom,
Simply because we believe that we are not enough.
We have been brainwashed to believe there is something we must do,
Something we must have or achieve in order to be worthy.
When in fact,
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Because you are truly enough in every sense,
In every way.
Just as you are here today,
In the depths of this cave,
With just your light to guide you.
And as all of this realization is sinking into the deepest level of your being,
You continue to walk.
You all of a sudden notice a glimmering in the distance,
A sparkle that catches your eye.
Once again,
You are so happy to confirm that yes,
You did take the perfect path for your destination today.
The logical part of your mind is also relieved,
It now understands that it can just take a break.
It can always trust and rely on this inner wisdom to guide you,
Knowing that it always sees you right.
As you approach closer and closer,
You realize that this glimmer is coming from hundreds and thousands of beautiful gleaming crystals.
Almost like a crystal palace deep within the cave.
And as you look around,
There is every single kind of beautiful color and type of crystal,
Glimmering,
Sparkling all around you.
As you stand here in complete awe,
Just taking a moment to look around and imagine this crystal palace deep within the cave,
Looking exactly how you would like it to look,
Allowing this to unfold right before your eyes.
And as you look around,
You realize in the depths of darkness,
Your light has guided you home,
Home to where you can trust your own inner wisdom that resides within.
You can now trust that this is the time.
It is safe to release any stories of the past,
Of the present,
And of the future right now.
Because all that matters is what is within,
What is emerging within you right now.
Within you has all the answers that you need.
You can simply acknowledge these thoughts now.
You know that when the mind is active,
It can be useful,
But it can also lower you into unproductive thoughts and cycles when it is left to run unattended.
As you stand here in complete awe of the magnificent that surrounds you,
Take a nice deep breath in,
Soaking in the greatness within you.
And as you release,
You begin to have this greater awareness of who you really are,
Being so proud of who you are.
And knowing that every time you meditate,
That you come into your stillness,
That you discover something new,
Something fresh about yourself.
And this new truth is always appearing.
And it is so exciting to allow this to unravel,
Allowing yourself to breathe,
Relaxing deeply into this amazing journey.
A journey to your true self.
A journey to your quiet space.
A journey back to your own inner wisdom.
A place where you are perfectly perfect.
Where you are perfectly accepted just as you are.
In your stillness,
In your quietness,
In deep relaxation,
You assist your mind,
Body,
Emotions and spirit to all integrate and communicate.
At this time,
Feel your inner wisdom reintegrating back perfectly into your mind,
Body and soul.
Having confidence that you can access this anytime that you need.
I now invite you now to listen quietly as there is a message coming through from deep within at this time.
Just listen to the whispers coming through.
As you absorb all that is around you now.
What does your mind whisper to you?
What does your body whisper to you?
And what does your mind,
Body whisper to you in order to unify them here today?
Just listen,
Focusing on your breath.
Listen to your body,
Fully experiencing your breath.
Listening to your deep inner voice.
Allowing that message to rise now.
And now that you have found your inner wisdom here today,
You have reconnected with it,
Unified it back into all parts of mind,
Body and soul.
You have discovered this beautiful crystal palace by simply following your instant,
Following your light,
Your guide.
You now have everything that you need here today.
And it is time to return to the here and now.
But before you come back,
Just take another long deep breath in.
Really soaking in this inner peace,
Soaking in the sparkle,
Soaking in the light within that now radiates from the inside out.
And as you release your breath,
Knowing that you can come back to this place to realign,
To reconnect with your higher wisdom anytime you choose.
But anytime you feel confused or unsure,
Find this palace within,
This place of stillness and know that you can trust your deep inner wisdom at this time.
I will now begin to count you back into the present moment,
Back into the room.
Five,
Bringing gratitude forward from your journey today.
Four,
Feeling so grateful to know that you are now at one with your inner wisdom,
Your intuition,
Your gut instincts.
Three,
Knowing that this reconnection within is always there,
Should you choose to tap into it,
It will always see you right.
Two,
Feeling aligned with mind,
Body and soul,
Your mind realizing that it can just relax,
Trusting these other parts of your body and soul all at the same time.
One,
Starting to bring your awareness back into your body,
Back into the surface below you,
Just allowing some small movements through your fingers,
Wiggling your toes,
Maybe giving a nice beautiful stretch.
As you feel yourself awakening back to this moment,
Back to the here and now.
And only when you feel ready,
You can flutter your beautiful eyes awake.
As you do,
Knowing that you have achieved great things here today,
Reconnecting with your higher wisdom,
That will always see you right.
Thank you for practicing here with me today.
Namaste.
You are now at one with your inner wisdom,
Your mind,
Your mind,
Your mind,
Your mind,
Your mind,
Your mind.
I trust you.
