Welcome to this meditation to cut cords with a person who is energetically holding you back.
Cord cutting is a practice to sever unhelpful emotional ties and it can help you move on from relationships that no longer serve you.
You can repeat this practice as often as needed for each person with whom you wish to cut the cord.
Let's get started.
Make yourself comfortable.
Settle into your space.
And if that feels comfortable to you,
Close your eyes.
Take a deep breath in.
Hold it for a moment.
And let it out softly,
Feeling the tension leave your body.
Once again,
Inhale deeply.
Hold the breath.
And exhale fully,
Tuning inwards.
One last time,
Breathe in.
Hold it.
And release,
Allowing yourself to completely relax.
Now,
Set the intention for this meditation.
You are here to release the energetic cord between you and the specific person who has an unhelpful presence in your life.
This cord no longer serves your highest good and you are ready to let it go.
Inhale.
Affirm to yourself,
I am ready to release this connection and reclaim my energy.
Now,
Bring to mind the person with whom you wish to cut the cord.
Visualize them standing right in front of you.
Observe their appearance,
Their energy,
And how they make you feel.
Acknowledge any emotions that arise,
But remain centered in your intention to release this connection.
Imagine an energetic cord connecting you to this person,
From your heart space to theirs.
Notice the color,
Thickness,
And texture of this cord.
This cord represents the energetic link between you and this person,
Carrying all the negative emotions,
Patterns,
And attachments that have developed over time.
Take a moment to reflect on how this connection has impacted you.
Acknowledge any pain,
Anger,
Sadness,
Or other emotions associated with this person.
Recognize how this cord has drained your energy and affected your well-being.
Allow yourself to fully feel the weight of this connection,
Knowing that you are about to release it.
When you are ready,
Visualize a tool in your hand.
A sword,
Scissors,
Or a beam of light,
Whatever resonates with you.
This tool is imbued with the power to cut through the cord that binds you to this person who is holding you back.
Focus on the cord.
Take a deep breath in,
And as you exhale,
Use your tool to sever the cord completely.
Watch as the cord falls away,
Dissolving into nothingness,
Taking with it all the negative energy and attachments that have bound you.
After cutting the cord,
Bring your attention to your heart space where the cord was attached.
Imagine this area filling with healing light.
This light is warm,
Soothing,
And filled with love.
It repairs any energetic holes or wounds left by the cord,
Restoring your energy field to a state of wholeness and balance.
Now gently push the image of the person away from you,
Seeing them fade into the distance.
As they move away,
You may silently or out loud say,
I release you.
I release this connection.
I reclaim my energy and my power.
Now let go of any lingering emotions,
Knowing that you have released this connection for your highest good.
It's time to visualize a protective bubble or shield forming around you.
This shield is strong,
Impenetrable,
And only allows positive,
Loving energy to enter.
Affirm to yourself,
I am free.
I am protected.
And I am in control of my energy.
I am free.
I am protected.
And I am in control of my energy.
Take a few moments to sit in this peaceful,
Protected space.
Feel the lightness and freedom within you.
When you are ready,
Begin to bring your awareness back to the present moment.
Wiggle your fingers and toes.
Take a deep breath and gently open your eyes.
