Sometimes,
The greatest wisdom lies in doing nothing at all.
Welcome to Coached by Nikki Dyer.
Tonight,
We charge our souls with the energy and the light of a super moon.
Close your eyes if they aren't already.
Still your mind,
Still your body,
As you take your first deep breath in through the nose.
Hold the breath and exhale slowly through the mouth,
Breathing in,
Focusing only on that,
And exhale,
Remaining empty as you pause,
Inhale as the chest rises,
Exhale as it falls.
As your body continues to breathe,
Slowly,
Intentionally,
Let your mind begin to drift freely for just a moment,
Seeing where it is that it takes you,
Coming back to the present moment now,
As you take your deepest breath in of the day,
And exhale,
Releasing anything inside that's ready to float away.
On a night like tonight,
When the moon appears larger and brighter because of its closeness to Earth,
A super moon stands out like a bright pearl among the stars,
Illuminating an entire world below.
Her light infuses a glow into everything she can reach,
To calm the night,
To soothe the restless souls.
She moves across the night sky,
Like always,
In no hurry at all,
Within the depths of our own darkness,
Those quiet corners of our mind.
When struggles,
Difficulties,
And life's most challenging moments are all around us,
We so often search with impatient eyes for the answer,
Any answer at all,
But the moon shows us that in the shadows,
There is wisdom,
And if we just pause,
If we slow down,
And take the time to let our eyes slowly adjust to what is,
There is solace.
The world becomes clear once more.
Our challenges always come not to burden or hurt us,
But to guide gently toward who we are meant to become in our time here,
A karmic pivot,
Always.
So,
With your eyes still gently closed,
I want you to let the challenges you've been facing lately to rise to the surface.
Perhaps it's the same thing your mind went to earlier,
Or something else entirely.
And once it's there,
Place your hand gently over your heart,
Still your body,
Still your mind,
Inhale deeply through the nose,
And exhale,
Releasing the pressures of needing to know how to solve or fix this.
Release the pressure of being the one that has to find a solution.
Not every problem will require a swift resolution,
Nor is it necessary to shoulder the burdens of your world.
It's okay to not have all the answers,
Or any answer at all.
And with your hand still gently placed over your heart,
I want you to consider that the lesson is not to solve the riddle,
But perhaps to learn that sometimes the best action is no action at all.
The act of waiting is not passive,
But rather a conscious choice.
And sometimes,
The greatest wisdom lies in doing nothing at all,
Taking a final deep breath in,
And as you exhale,
Let it all go,
Finding peace and assurance in the words you have heard tonight,
The pressure and the need to solve and find answers.
Slowly bringing your awareness back into your body,
Noticing how it's filled with a lighter energy,
And when you feel ready,
Open your eyes and return to a world that doesn't always require an answer.
