Transcript

The Winter Solstice is a gathering of energy when the axis of the earth pauses and starts to move in the opposite direction.

A spiritual time to experience stillness,

To just be.

Welcome to Coached by Nikki Dyer.

We begin this practice here by gently closing your eyes and beginning to sense the unknown,

Letting the breath fill the belly as you inhale,

And fall into every exhale,

Letting your muscles become heavy,

Encouraging your thoughts to come and go,

Just like the air you breathe.

Feel the way the cycles of breath become natural as they all slowly blend together.

As you pause,

To take in the quiet stillness surrounding you.

Winter Solstice is a perfect time for deciding what you are ready to release energetically.

The Winter Solstice is a powerful moment of stillness,

A reminder that even on the darkest of days,

There is always the promise of light.

I invite you to look inward,

To reflect on the first half of the year.

What is one thing you need to let go of to make space for the new that is coming?

Letting the change of the seasons find purpose in quiet moments as they find their way to you.

Reminding yourself that this season is for stillness,

For going within,

And for taking the time to nurture your own inner light.

The Winter Solstice is a time of self-reflection,

To experience stillness,

To just be.

Take a deep breath in and a slow exhale out,

Beginning to welcome your mind back into your body.

And when you feel centered,

Open your eyes and return to the peaceful stillness that still surrounds you.

A beautiful moment in the middle of the holiday craziness! Thank you, Nikki. 🙏🏻

Very soothing and relaxing. It inspired me to reflect on my inner thoughts. Thank you Nikki🙏🏻

A great pause..during this pause of the planet tilting. I had not thought of the enormity of it...just the darkness. Thanks for the perspective, as always

So beautiful! This year has been a year of sadness, change, and letting go. But I’ve come out stronger then ever, feeling the heaviness lift. I’ve rekindled relationships, started new types of creative work, and see the light shining again. Our days up here in the North will slowly add more light. I’ve made it through the darkness. I’m thankful for every single moment even the hard days. Bring on the New Year as I’m ready to put 2025 behind me.
Merry Christmas 🎄
