Hello,
My name is Carol Mazzetto and I will be with you in the next few minutes of this guided meditation to channel your inner strength.
Sit in a comfortable upright posture with your shoulders and legs relaxed.
Rest the back of your hands on your knees or thighs and feel your entire body stable and comfortable.
Concentrate on your breathing observing with presence the air coming in and out.
Observe how with each deep and conscious breath you feel more and more given to the here and now.
Now visualize that you are on your bare feet standing on soft grass with a blue sky above you.
Visualize abundant nature all around you and in front of you rises an enormous mountain.
Leave your mind free to create images of this mountain and of this environment with vivid colors and details.
You are walking in the direction of this mountain until you stop to contemplate this majestic and beautiful mountain that's standing in front of you.
You observe its stability,
The force and perseverance of it,
Being there even with storms,
Weather changes,
Cold,
Harsh winter or heat,
And passing of time,
Connecting yourself to everything that this mountain represents.
Now,
Observing the mountain,
You see that it begins to light up,
Shining radiant light towards you in every direction,
Illuminating all nature around you in your whole body.
Feel the energy of the light that vibrates like the energy of a thousand suns and from this radiant and luminous mountain a goddess arises,
The goddess Durga.
You observe the beauty and force of this goddess that approaches you mounted on a lion.
You allow goddess Durga to approach you until she holds your hands.
As soon as you connect with each other,
A light begins to shine in the center of your chest and the goddess will bless you with strength,
Courage and determination.
Feel that this light that shines from the center of your body is becoming stronger,
More radiant,
Beginning to expand illuminating your entire body and everything around you.
As this light expands,
It also expands from inside out the sensation of courage,
Confidence and power to realize all your dreams and goals.
Feel your inner power that pulses and emanates from within you,
Feeling full of courage,
Perseverance,
Determination.
With this power that was within you all along,
Waiting to be awakened,
You start saying goodbye to the goddess Durga,
Thanking her for all the help in this process of awakening your inner power.
You observe as she fades away with her lion going back to the source of light that emanates from the mountain.
You notice the goddess going away and the light vanishing as if a portal was closing.
Begin to take deeper breaths and place your hands over your chest,
An exact spot from where your power and your light emanates.
Feel how this power remains active within you and that it can be accessed whenever you need.
Take some more deep breaths,
Returning your attention to the environment in which you find yourself and slowly you begin to move your body,
Moving your limbs until you start to stretch slowly and after doing all the movements your body asks.
Open your eyes.
Thank you for being with me.
I see you in the next meditation.
Namaste.
