Welcome to your session today.
As a reminder,
You are a co-creator in this space.
This session is all about courage and empowerment,
So I would love if you could arrive into this space sitting upright.
If you need to sit in a chair,
On a couch,
Or with your back against the wall so that you have support,
Perfectly okay.
But today I would love for you to be present in your body.
This isn't about growing comfortable in discomfort or settling into your breath in any particular way.
It's about reminding yourself that courage and bravery live there in your soul.
So wherever you're joining me from,
Sit upright.
Be alert and present.
Close the windows of your eyes and let's go.
Let's find the courage.
Let's dig it up and start to build that fire inside.
With your eyes closed,
I invite you to bring your awareness to the space of your heart.
And if I were to say,
What color is your courage?
Let's use that as an illuminating light there in the heart space.
What color is your courage?
There's no perfect answer,
Just the one that resonates for you.
If we were to focus on the space of the heart and allow ourselves an opportunity to build that fire,
If we extend that color outside of the heart space,
How far can we push it?
You see,
This courage,
It lives inside of you.
No one took it from you.
It's always been there.
It might grow quiet every now and then.
The color might fade and become diluted.
But ultimately,
At the end of every single day,
With every decision that you are faced with,
Courage lives and breathes inside of you right there in your heart space.
What you do with it is entirely up to you.
So let's little by little,
Breath by breath,
Start expanding from the heart space in the color of your courage outward into your body.
How far can you push that courage?
You might start to feel the physical sensations of tingling,
Swirling,
The awareness expanding from your heart out into your body.
It might be filling up your entire chest cavity at this point,
The beautiful color of your courage.
Let's see if we can push it a little bit more.
Let's try for a moment to expand that element and feeling,
That color and light and warmth,
The fire of your courage.
Spread it out from your chest cavity into your entire torso and maybe down each arm.
The intention today is to dig it up and let it exist in your entire being.
We know where the root is,
There at your beautiful magnetic heart.
We've spread it through the chest cavity.
We've put it into the torso.
It's come down each arm into the palm of our hands.
With each breath,
It gets a little bit more intense,
A little bit brighter,
A little bit warmer.
Try spreading it down through the legs and into the soles of your feet.
Your courage is all-encompassing.
Spreading it up through your throat,
Giving yourself permission to say the words that you need to say.
Without agenda,
Without expectation,
The words that you need to say.
Having the courage to speak openly,
Honestly,
And freely.
Pushing that color,
Warmth,
And brightness of your courage up from your heart through your entire head,
Out through the crown.
Maybe bringing that light over your entire external body.
This courage isn't new.
It's been here inside of you the entire time.
And like I said,
Maybe from time to time,
It has dimmed in light.
It has been diluted in its intensity.
But it's always been here.
No one can take that from you.
And whenever you need a reminder that it lives and breathes inside of you,
Just come back here.
You can find it again and again and again.
Placing your hands over your heart,
The root of where your courage exists.
Tucking your chin,
Bowing your head ever so slightly.
You are a brave and beautiful being.
And just as your heart is a magnet for miracles,
It is the root of your courage.
Come back here any time you need that reminder and know that it lives inside of you.
