Hello,
My name is Kari.
Let's meditate together.
Let's do this meditation when we're not feeling so great,
When we're feeling angry or irritated or really frustrated.
This is the meditation that's going to help you to let go of that and get through it and feel better by the end of it.
So you can listen to this meditation while you're driving,
While you're walking,
While you're cleaning around the house,
It doesn't matter.
You don't have to sit in stillness or lay down.
Make this meditation work for you,
Whatever you're doing at the time.
I will ask you to start to be conscious of your breath.
So mindfully,
No matter what you're doing,
Start to just connect to your breath.
Feel the way that you're breathing.
Most of the time,
If we have any kind of anger running through our system,
We breathe more shallow,
We breathe quicker.
We don't get that deep,
Calming breath,
But that's what we need.
So let's purposefully start to breathe longer,
Slower,
Deeper breaths as you listen.
Consciously slow down your breathing.
This is going to start to help the parasympathetic nervous system to get the signals to calm down a little bit,
To slow down,
But start to let go of some of that anxiety and stress.
Nice,
Slow,
Deep breaths.
Maybe to the count of three or the count of four,
If that feels right for you.
Okay,
So right now I'm going to do this as if I'm feeling angry and this is how I would talk myself through anger.
So you are me and I am you right now in this moment.
Okay,
Why am I angry?
I need to take a moment to step back and let go and release this anger somehow.
How is the anger serving me right now in this moment?
It probably isn't because I can't think straight.
I don't feel right.
I'm on edge and I feel irritable.
This is not good in my body.
The truth of it is my body doesn't feel good right now,
So I am going to release this anger just for me.
This is not about anyone else involved,
Anything else involved.
This is just about me and how I feel right now in this moment.
I'm taking long,
Slow,
Deep breaths and that's helping me to calm down.
Every time I breathe out,
I see myself releasing some of this anger inside of me.
My anger is just an energy.
It's an emotion,
Simple as that,
And this emotion doesn't feel good in my body.
It doesn't help me to have a clear mind,
So I'm going to process it as quickly as I possibly can.
Even though I'm busy and I'm doing things,
I can see the anger starting to leave my body in different ways.
As I shake my hands out,
I feel it coming off the tips of my fingertips.
As I allow my steps to get heavier on the ground as I walk,
I'm not stomping,
But I'm definitely walking with intention.
I feel as if I'm pushing the anger out from the bottom of my feet.
Release,
Release,
Release,
Release every step.
I can feel it literally breathing out of my lungs,
Out of my stomach,
Out of my chest as I exhale nice and deep.
I'm processing this energy.
I am human and therefore I am here on earth feeling all the different emotions available to my experience.
Anger is just one of them.
It's present in me now,
But it doesn't have to stay here because I can release it because I have the awareness of it.
I know myself and I feel it right now in this moment.
I'm breathing it out.
I'm shaking it out.
I am walking this energy right out of my body with every step I take.
Being angry doesn't mean I'm a bad person.
Being angry doesn't mean I have to feel ashamed of myself.
I have to be mad at myself for being angry,
Which is counter interactive.
It doesn't work.
It doesn't make sense.
Yet I know I do that to myself sometimes.
I get angry at myself for being angry.
That is pointless.
My anger is a normal human emotion.
I am a human being and I react to different emotions.
I feel things.
Thank goodness I feel things because if I didn't,
I would be a pretty flat line,
Dull,
Dead person.
I embrace feeling all of these different emotions.
I understand that anger is actually warning my body of something,
Telling me to pay attention to something,
Allowing me to learn and be aware of something.
So just calm down so that you can think.
Calm down so that I can process.
I am not a bad person for getting angry sometimes.
I would probably be neglectful if I didn't learn from my anger or if I didn't try and process it and let it go.
If I hold onto my anger,
What does it serve me?
I'm the one that feels crummy and bad and not good inside.
And I love myself enough to not feel this way.
It's okay.
Everything is okay.
I can already feel myself calm and down.
I'm going to shake it out of my hands a little bit more,
Literally watching it in my mind's eye,
Leaving my body.
Like shaking water off the tips of your fingertips if you don't have a towel in the bathroom.
It's as simple as that.
I choose to let this energy leave my body.
I am in charge of the way that I feel and the way that I process things.
I'm responsible for myself,
So I choose to let this go.
I feel it getting less and less.
My body is less tense.
I can feel the walls,
The barriers,
All the bulletproof shields that I had up 10 minutes ago starting to fall down.
I can see in my mind my aura changing colour,
My energy bodies softening,
Changing vibration.
My physical body feels nicer to be inside of.
Less tense.
Less stressed.
Less mean.
I don't like being mean or angry.
This is good that I'm letting this go.
I feel so much better.
I know I'm mature enough and responsible enough and definitely conscious enough to just breathe this energy out and release it as quickly as possible.
I understand why I got angry and now I know what I need to do to sort this out.
Now that I'm calm.
Now that I'm back to my full awareness.
Now that I'm back in my heart space.
I can take the actions necessary to fix why I got angry in the first place.
All is well.
Everything feels good once again.
And so it is.
Namaste my friend.
Namaste.
Namaste.
Namaste.
Namaste.
Namaste.
Namaste.
Namaste.
Namaste.
