Unblock your creativity.
We are innately creative,
But conditioned fear and self-judgment block us from gifting our self-expression to the world.
Finding the courage to create starts inside.
Start to become aware of your breath,
Feeling it come into your belly,
Open up through your chest,
And up into your shoulders.
And as you exhale,
Slowly let the breath travel out on that same route.
On your next inhale,
Bring the breath into your belly,
Open up into your chest,
And up to your shoulders.
Exhale,
Relax your shoulders,
Allow the breath to travel out of your chest,
And finally out of your belly.
Continue those slow,
Intentional breaths.
As you do,
Feel the energy moving up your spine,
Through your body,
And out of your chest.
As you do,
Feel the energy moving up your spine,
Through your neck to the top of your head,
And then traveling back down your spine,
And eventually out your tailbone.
Our energy centers are all along our spine.
And when those energy centers get blocked,
The energy cannot travel through.
We feel out of balance,
Out of flow.
We'll start to study our energy centers with a body scan.
So starting at your root,
At your tailbone.
Bring your awareness there and listen in.
Notice if a word comes to mind,
Maybe a color.
And then let that go,
Come up to your low belly.
Notice any tension.
Any pain,
Any vibration.
Listen in for a color or a word.
And traveling up to the area just below your ribs.
Feel in for any vibration.
Notice if there's a color or a word that would like to speak to you here.
And travel up to your chest,
Into your heart.
And feel into your heart.
Notice the temperature,
If it feels warm or cool.
And what color or word do you hear in your heart.
And now travel up to your throat.
Listening in.
Noticing what your throat speaks to you now.
Come up to your third eye,
In between your eyebrows.
And listen for any colors or a word.
Any sensation.
And now travel up to the crown of your head.
And feel into that space.
Listen for a word.
Listen for a color.
Any message that you find in the crown of your head.
And up at the crown of our head,
We can connect to the divine within.
And so now we're going to travel through our imagination.
So as you sit still picture yourself walking across grass.
You're in a big open field.
As you walk further out,
You notice that you are on a cliff.
This cliff overlooks the ocean.
It might be a place you're familiar with,
A place you've seen in photos.
Somewhere like Ireland or La Jolla,
California.
And still in your imagination.
You stretch out your arms.
Spinning around in a circle.
Feeling the soft breeze on your skin.
The warm sunlight on your forehead.
As you spin in a circle,
You find yourself coming down to the ground to a seat.
Stretching your legs out long to either side.
Then you start to move intuitively.
Still picturing yourself stretching one arm overhead.
Then moving to the other side.
Maybe moving your torso around in a circle.
Swaying forward to the side,
To the back,
To the other side.
Feeling that movement all through your body.
Then you come back to stillness.
And as you listen to these intentions,
Let them soak into your body.
As if these words are a ray of sun.
As if they're the song of a bird.
I was put on this planet for a reason.
My voice matters.
I can trust the voice inside me.
When I follow the golden thread of ideas and intuition,
I heal the earth.
I am safe.
I am not alone.
The universe will help me bring my ideas to life.
I understand my perspective.
I take joy in my own presence.
Everything is working out for me all the time.
I'm learning something new.
I'm using my gifts for a greater good.
When I create,
I bring light into the world.
My expression brings inner peace.
Now you take a moment to soak this all in.
Let your body inhale the sweetness,
The stillness,
And the beauty.
And now start to come back to the room you are in.
As the open field and the ocean and the breeze all start to fade.
But the peace and the presence within remain.
And you blink your eyes open.
The meditation is now complete.
Come back to it anytime you need a dose of self love and softness towards your inner artist.
Namaste.
