Close your eyes.
Take a slow,
Steady,
Deep breath.
Let your body know you are here.
Make sure you breathe through your mouth.
Only your mouth.
During this entire session,
Bring your awareness to your navel or your belly button.
You can place your right hand on your belly button area and the other one on your heart for balance.
Now let's go down memory lane before you ever took your first breath.
Before the air of life outside the womb ever touched your skin.
Before your feet ever touched the earth.
You were connected.
Through the umbilical cord you were already tethered to life.
It was more than just a biological channel.
It was your first grounding.
Your first bridge to the world.
Everything you needed came through that cord.
Nourishment.
Oxygen.
A felt sense of safety.
You lacked for nothing.
You had everything.
You still do.
Other things travelled through the umbilical cord too.
Her stress or her fun.
Her worries or her joys.
Her exhaustion or her energy.
Her inherited stories.
Maybe even generations of grief.
Of fear or of courage.
Your tiny body received all of it without words.
Without understanding.
Stored it.
That imprint lives on.
We call this the primal knot.
The energetic residue left where that cord once entered your body.
It is the original point your system still checks for.
Is it safe to live?
Is it safe to receive?
Is it safe to move toward what I choose?
Is it safe to know?
How do you see this space?
Is it tangled or heavy?
Is it loose and relaxed?
What colour do you see there?
Does it feel dry or humid?
Pay attention to it.
It is the core.
It is your first anchor to your world.
It can quietly pull on you for your entire life.
It can make receiving feel dangerous.
It can make success feel like too much.
It can make any action feel too risky.
Just like birth must have felt.
Place both hands over your belly now.
Right where the umbilical cord would have been attached.
Let the warmth of your palms sink in.
Feel your breath move under your hands.
Notice how you feel.
Notice any sensations in your body.
With each inhale,
Let your belly rise to its fullest.
With each exhale,
Feel your body soften.
Your only task right now is to meet this space with awareness.
Just noticing.
In your mind's eye,
Imagine that point in your belly as it exists now.
What do you see there?
Trust whatever you see or sense.
Whisper either out loud or in your mind.
I know you carried more than was yours.
Take a deep breath.
I agree to let go of what is not mine to carry.
Take a deep breath.
I am happy to be back.
Take a deep breath.
I am happy to be home.
Take a deep breath.
I am ready to be fed again.
Take a deep breath.
I am ready to receive again.
Breathe through your belly button.
As you do,
Send this space reassurance.
We are safe now.
We can receive safely.
We can live fully.
Gently rub your hands on your belly.
As if soothing a newborn.
Let your body register that safety.
Take a deep breath.
With each inhale,
See this space drawing in energy that feels good.
Clean,
Alive.
With each exhale,
Feel it relaxing deeper into your core.
Take a deep breath.
Gently press your palms into your belly.
And speak these words slowly.
Letting them vibrate and echo through your body.
I am allowed to receive.
I am safe to be here.
I am connected to life in a way that feeds me.
I am allowed to receive.
I am safe to be here.
I am connected to life in a way that feeds me.
I am safely alive.
Keep one hand over your belly.
And the other hand on your heart.
Imagine a loop of colourful energy.
Flowing from your belly button to your heart and back again.
A circuit of life force and love.
Take a deep breath.
When you're ready,
Let your awareness expand.
Come back into the room.
Wiggle your fingers and toes.
Open your eyes.
When you're ready,
Let your awareness expand.
When you're ready,
Let your awareness expand.
When you're ready,
Let your awareness expand.
