So,
Beginning with taking a deep breath into the belly,
Breathing in,
Exhaling.
And one more time.
Exhaling with a sigh.
Relaxing,
Letting the body melt into the surface beneath you.
And one more time,
Breathing in,
Exhaling.
Releasing the tensions from the day,
Relaxing into the present.
And one last deep breath,
Deepest you've taken all day,
Breathing in.
Imagine that you're holding two suitcases.
In your left hand,
You have the past,
All the baggage from the day,
Ideas of who you are,
Where you've been,
Background,
History,
And I invite you to take the opportunity to drop this suitcase.
Put it down gently on the ground,
Breathing in,
And dropping the suitcase down.
So releasing yourself from any ideas of where you've been,
Releasing all the tensions,
The accumulated stress.
And in your right hand,
You're holding another suitcase.
The suitcase is the future,
And the future containing all the ideas,
Expectations,
Where you're going next,
All your responsibilities.
And first,
Just raising your shoulders gently,
Breathing in,
Raising the shoulders,
And letting the shoulders as you breathe out come back down.
One more time.
Melting and relaxing all tensions in the shoulders,
And you're holding this suitcase in your right hand.
When you have a choice,
You can put it down,
And at the end of this meditation,
You can pick up the past and the future.
Pick up your identity and future ideas,
Expectations.
And on the next exhale,
Allow yourself to put the future down on the ground.
So nowhere to go,
Nowhere to be,
Nobody you need to try to be,
But just here.
And noticing what it's like to be just here,
And what does that mean to you?
You experience your body,
Experience emotions,
Thoughts,
Sensations.
Maybe you notice body breathing,
You notice what part of the body is moving as you breathe,
And riding the wave of your breath like a surfer surfing a wave,
Surfing the wave of life.
And being open,
Inviting the attitude of openness,
Curiosity.
Next moment,
This moment.
And then letting your body melt and relax into the support,
The ground beneath you.
And whether you're sitting lying down,
Standing,
Letting the earth,
Gravity hold you,
Support your weight,
And leaning into the support beneath your body.
Noticing that there's a solid foundation on which you're supported,
And held,
And you're in a safe space.
The earth supporting you,
The air supporting you.
And letting your body,
Welcoming your body into the space,
Welcoming yourself,
Your very own true self into the space.
Welcoming your heart into the space.
Extending a gesture of appreciation to yourself for showing up,
For your courage,
Commitment to your own growth,
Soul growth and evolution.
I honor you,
I see you.
Dropping more and more into the physical body,
Imagining this light entering from the top of your head.
This light is the golden light of the sun.
It's like liquid sunlight,
It's a very healing light.
Light,
Love,
Clarity,
Truth.
This light as it melts down for every part of the body it touches,
That body part starts to gently soften and relax,
Unwind,
Release.
Like a sensation of trust,
You can trust life.
The cells can relax,
So this golden light melting down your forehead,
Relaxing,
Releasing,
Unwinding the muscles in your brow.
Letting the eyes soften,
Eyes bathing in pools of water.
No need to focus right now,
The eyes closed,
Whether the eyes be closed or open.
Softening the gaze and gently relaxing the areas as this golden light melts down on the cheeks,
On the face,
The jaw.
This light melts down the front,
The chest,
Through the throat,
Down the shoulders.
Gently relaxing the shoulders.
Everything's okay.
No responsibilities right now,
Letting yourself be supported.
This liquid sunlight melting down through the shoulders,
Down the arms,
Through the elbows,
Out through the lower arms,
Through the hands,
All the way into the fingertips.
And melting down from the throat down the chest,
Through the front of the shoulders,
Down the solar plexus to the belly.
Relaxing all the internal organs,
Washing them,
This golden liquid sunlight is embracing and warming.
This liquid sunlight also pours down the back of your head,
Back of your neck,
The side of the neck.
Again down your shoulder blades,
Through the spine,
Healing and cleansing any blockages.
Down the back,
Down through the kidneys,
Lower back,
To the buttocks and the hips.
As you breathe,
Imagine you're nourishing this area of the body.
The hips,
Lower body.
As this liquid sunlight melts down,
The gratitude.
And melting down through the legs,
The upper legs,
Through the knees,
Down the lower legs.
And into your feet,
Through your feet,
Into the ground.
So imagining like a waterfall,
This liquid sunlight tapped into this pure light,
Light of the divine,
The light of God if you like.
It's melting down the body,
All sides of the body and inside the body,
Just washing,
Opening,
Healing.
Letting your body fill with this light,
Clear out any tension and blockages,
Washing down through your feet,
Into the earth.
Letting the earth take care of this weight,
Handing it over.
Trust.
And just feeling your body,
Feeling the whole body.
The sensations,
Energy in motion,
Accepting everything that is unfolding.
And this light being open to the magic of a new moment.
And taking a deep breath into the belly,
Nourishing the body with fresh oxygen by force.
And gradually coming back,
Getting ready for the next adventure.
So if you're ready,
Just letting the eyes gently open,
Taking in light from the air around you,
From the environment around you.
Imagining you're opening your eyes for the first time,
Seeing the world for the first time.
As you're walking out of this space,
You can choose to pick up your suitcases again or just let them be there.
See what life has in store for you,
From open minds,
Gratitude,
Fresh energy.
Thank you.
