Welcome to this meditation.
I'm Claire Squires,
Your guide on this journey today to raise your universal energy,
Vibration and frequency.
With the seasons changing into cooler,
Darker,
Slower times,
We will embark on a journey together to move beyond the rain clouds of our minds and rediscover the eternal sun that is always shining behind them.
No matter how heavy the clouds may seem,
Remember they are temporary,
While the light within us is forever.
Please find a comfortable position,
Either sitting or lying down.
When you're ready,
Close down your eyes and take a nice deep breath in and exhale,
Letting go of any tension or stress.
This is your time to reconnect with the peace that resides within you.
As you settle into stillness,
Bring your awareness to your breath.
Notice the rise and fall of your chest and belly with each inhalation and exhalation.
Feel the cool air entering through your nostrils and the warm air leaving your body.
With every breath,
Allow yourself to become more present and more grounded.
Just notice the surface beneath you supporting your body,
Holding you up,
Just like the earth always does.
Feel the connection between your body and the ground,
The solidity and the support.
Now imagine that with every exhale,
You're releasing any weight,
Tension or heaviness you may be carrying.
Inhale deeply and as you exhale,
Let it all go,
Let it all go.
There's nowhere else you need to be,
Nothing else you need to do.
This moment is yours,
You are here,
Now,
In this sacred space.
Now in the sanctuary of your mind,
Picture yourself standing in a wide open field.
Above you,
The sky is filled with heavy rain clouds.
They may feel dense,
Dark or overwhelming.
These rain clouds represent the worries,
Fears or struggles that may be weighing on you right now.
Just take a moment to notice how these clouds feel.
Do they feel close?
Are they pressing down on you?
Or are they distant,
Lingering on the horizon?
Are they moving swiftly or hanging stagnant?
Just allow yourself to be fully aware of these clouds without judgement,
Simply acknowledging their presence.
Sometimes we resist these clouds,
These emotions,
These thoughts,
But remember that it's okay to feel them.
Just like the weather,
They are a natural part of life,
They come and go.
They're not permanent and they are not you.
Now take a deep breath in and as you breathe out,
Allow yourself to shift your awareness beyond the rain clouds.
Imagine yourself gently rising above them,
Like a bird gliding through the sky.
And as you ascend,
You begin to see that these clouds are not endless.
They have a top.
They have edges.
And as you continue to rise,
You start to notice a soft golden light emerging.
Keep ascending until you break through the last layer of clouds.
There,
Above the storm,
Is the sun,
Beautiful,
Bright,
Warm and radiant.
Feel it's like touching your skin,
Warming your face and filling your entire being with a gentle,
Nourishing heat.
This is the light of your true self,
The light that is always within you.
It was never gone,
It was just hiding for a moment.
And as you bask in this sunlight,
Feel its energy vibrating through every cell of your body,
Energising you and uplifting you.
You are reminded that behind every challenge,
Behind every shadow,
This light is always present,
Always waiting for you.
The clouds of doubt,
Fear or pain may pass,
But the sun of your spirit remains constant,
Shining and eternal.
Now,
Gently bring to mind a challenge or difficulty you've been facing,
A cloud that has been hovering in your mind.
And as you hold it in your awareness,
Remember that this cloud is temporary.
It may feel heavy now,
But like all weather,
It will pass.
Imagine the sunlight beginning to pierce through it,
Dissolving its density,
Softening its edges.
Just notice how the light starts to shine through,
Illuminating the cloud from within,
Transforming it from something heavy and dark into something lighter,
More transparent.
With every breath,
Imagine this cloud becoming smaller and smaller until it finally dissipates,
Leaving only the vast open sky and the warmth of the sun.
Feel the relief,
The space and the lightness and notice how good it feels to release,
To let it go and to raise and rise above.
Now,
Let's affirm the light that we carry within us.
Silently or aloud,
Just repeat these affirmations,
Letting each word resonate deeply within you.
I am more than my thoughts.
I am the light behind them.
I embrace each moment with trust and openness.
No matter how heavy the clouds may seem,
I am the sun that shines beyond them.
I am radiant,
Resilient and at peace.
I rise above and I shine.
Allow these affirmations to vibrate through you,
Feeling that truth in each statement.
And as we begin to close this meditation,
Just take a moment to feel the connection between the light above and the earth below.
You are the bridge between the two,
The harmonious balance of grounding and ascension,
Shadow and light.
Feel the support of the earth beneath you and the warmth of the sun within you.
Just take a beautiful deep breath in,
Filling your lungs with this revitalising energy and exhale,
Releasing any remnants of doubt or heaviness.
Just gently wiggle your fingers and toes,
Becoming more aware of the space around you.
And when you're ready,
And only when you're ready,
Slowly open your eyes,
Carrying this sense of light,
Peace and presence with you.
Thank you for joining this meditation journey with me today.
Remember,
No matter what clouds pass through your sky,
The sun of your true self is always shining,
Always there to guide you back to your highest vibration.
Carry this light with you into your day,
Into your life and share it with the world.
And until we meet again,
May you always be guided by the light within.
