Welcome to this meditation.
Before we begin,
I would like to ask you to sit up straight with your legs crossed.
If this is uncomfortable,
You can also sit on a chair with your feet touching the ground.
Whatever your body allows you and whatever your body needs right now.
Today,
We're gonna have together a beautiful meditation to connect with your baby inside your womb.
To connect with that living,
Growing being that is hosted inside of you.
Learning,
Growing from you.
And independently on which stage of your pregnancy you are right now,
Either if you just found out or you're just about to give birth.
I use this moment to connect with the soul of that being that is being formed right now.
So let's begin by placing one or two hands on top of your belly.
It could be your lower belly,
Upper belly,
Depending on how big your belly is right now.
Or you feel more connected.
Breathing in through the nose and out through the nose.
And imagining the flow of air going in through the nose and going out through your belly button.
Allowing your whole body to be nourished by the air with a specific focus of sending this energy to your unborn child growing inside of you.
Hmm.
.
.
You might start noticing movements,
Some kicks,
Punches,
Or just simply some energy flowing inside of you.
And as you're breathing in and out now at a normal,
Natural pace,
Use this moment to listen to your baby.
When a soul wants to incarnate through you,
When a soul chooses you,
It's not only for you to provide to this being,
But it's also the soul that comes here to teach you something.
To teach you as a mother and also the father.
It's not all random,
It all has a purpose and a meaning.
We can now communicate with our babies and ask them what they need from us.
Maybe it's the perfect moment to start observing our fears regarding birth,
Our fears regarding motherhood,
Our fears regarding our health and the health of a baby.
And observe what these fears are telling us.
Your baby might be here to tell you it's alright,
They chose you,
They chose this experience.
So independently of what you do,
How the birth ends up going,
How well prepared you feel or you don't feel,
It's all part of that learning experience for you both.
Baby and mother.
So as you breathe in and breathe out,
Allow this moment to help you release those fears.
Bringing some trust over your body,
Trust over your own capacities of caring,
Of growing new life.
There are no scripts or books that can tell you exactly what you need to do.
You can learn,
You can inform yourself but ultimately the moment you found out about your pregnancy,
The moment when you birth your baby,
You know more than anyone else and your baby knows more than anybody else.
So start creating that connection,
That communication right now.
Noticing your body and your emotions,
What your body is trying to tell you.
Maybe you have some aches,
Some pain,
Discomfort,
Hunger,
Nausea,
Whatever you feel.
Take a moment to connect with the body and the body of your baby.
To understand what you might be needing right now.
Maybe it's a little bit more of rest or support.
Maybe there is a need for more nutrition,
Comfort,
The need of movement or sleep.
Maybe you have community or close relationships.
And at the same time as you become aware of your bodily sensations,
Notice your emotions as they rise up and down.
Completely changing,
Sometimes very drastically.
Ranging from extreme joy and love to sadness and worry.
From being very energized to completely drained.
From feeling totally capable to having no idea what to do next.
Observe and feel everything right now,
Whatever comes to you.
Without judging from your mind,
Again connecting to your baby.
Maybe this is an emotion that your baby wants you to observe.
Pregnancy is such a beautiful time of healing,
Of releasing,
Of opening.
Of opening your voice to express your needs.
Because now you are not only protecting yourself but you are protecting another life.
So allow yourself to feel without judgement.
And talk with your baby,
What do you need right now from me?
How can I help you to feel safe so you come to the world knowing that you are being held and loved?
Maybe they need some reassurance from your side or maybe you need some reassurance from his or her side.
Create that bond.
This is a unique experience.
Beautiful experience.
It's a transformation,
A rebirth for yourself.
From maiden to mother.
And through the pregnancy you are already in this process.
But you're already a mother,
You're already caring for another life.
But as any transformation it can be difficult at times and it's alright.
It's okay,
It's not just an external transformation but an inner transformation.
You're creating life from love.
You are allowing a soul to come to this earth through the vessel of your body.
And how powerful is that?
How beautiful is that?
And for a moment again with your hand on your belly.
Think about a word,
Think it and feel it with your heart.
And say that word either out loud or just to your inner self.
Say that word to your baby.
Whatever comes,
Whatever you feel.
And allow yourself to also receive from your baby the word or a feeling,
An emotion.
There is a channel of communication with or without words that only you can feel right now.
To use this moment of simply enjoying and admiring this connection.
And once you're ready you can gently open your eyes.
Thank you.
