This is Daphne Garrido and I am so glad that you have joined me here.

Today we are going to be moving into a practice where together we can nourish ourselves with exactly what we need right now.

And so,

Please allow your body to find a comfortable position,

Whether you're seated or you're lying down,

Please extend your spine out straight and lengthen your neck,

Roll your shoulders down and back,

Keeping your chin lightly tucked,

And lift your heart space.

If you haven't already,

Please close your eyes,

And let's begin to check in with the energy within our body.

And so feel the flowing currents of energy within you,

Witness what's inside,

Maybe feeling an abundance of energy moving into your palms,

Maybe feeling the energy moving up and down your arms or your legs,

Maybe feeling the energy surging from within your heart or moving up and down your spine.

However you feel energy within,

Simply witness what's there for you,

And try and stay present with it.

On your next inhalation,

Take a very deep breath in,

Filling yourself all the way,

And with a sigh,

Let it go.

Take another deep breath in,

All the way,

And let it go.

Take one last full breath in.

Take a couple extra sips in through your mouth if you can,

And hold,

Relax your entire body.

And release,

Perfect.

And so allow your breath to find a comfortable rhythm,

Witness the natural flow of your breath,

And make sure your breath is moving you to the very top of your head.

If you notice that the movement of your breath is not reaching that point,

You may be holding tension in your neck or shoulders.

So allow your body to find a pliable resilience where it can stand tall,

But you can move with the flow of your breath.

And now,

Let us see ourselves sitting together around a campfire on a higher level of existence.

Feel the warmth of the fire.

See the stars in the sky high above,

And see that you and I are being joined here.

And as we are joined,

I call in spirit itself,

The great everything that surrounds us to hold us in these moments,

To hold us in the intentions of nourishing ourselves with what we need.

I ask our friends beyond this level of existence to shower us with their wisdom and grace,

To bless us by feeding our intuitions with the truth that will lead our way.

And I ask our family,

Our spiritual support that surrounds us,

To hold us in love,

To anchor us to the earth,

And to wrap us in their loving support.

And seeing now this campfire become surrounded by souls,

Not only all of those connected to you and I,

But to others throughout time and space who have taken part in this meditation themselves,

Feel the container we are all holding together,

Building together,

Within which we will be healed and we will find better ways to take care of ourselves.

By releasing self-sacrificing tendencies that have been coded in us from society,

We enable ourselves to achieve radical self-love,

And by doing so,

We can change the world for the better,

Not only by example,

But through our energetic connections to everyone and everything.

And so loving yourself is not a selfish act.

With done with the intention for the greatest good of all,

Loving yourself is selfless because it allows you to become the person who can share the most love and make the most positive change in the world around us.

And so see this version of yourself sitting around the campfire,

And see us all closing our eyes,

And begin to feel the wind on your face,

Moving past your outstretched arms and hands,

And knowing you're completely safe,

Knowing you're protected here.

See that you are flying.

Feel yourself moving through the air at great speed,

And see nature below you.

See a beautiful forest,

And notice that out in the distance,

On the ever-approaching horizon,

Is the ocean.

And find yourself flying to the beach.

See yourself coming down to place your bare feet in the sand,

And notice that we have joined you here,

That we have all flown here together.

And allow yourself to find a seat on this beach,

Allow yourself to look up at the beautiful milky way above,

And allow yourself to release into the feeling,

Into the sensations,

Into the power of the ocean right before you,

And feeling the energy of these waves moving through you,

Feeling the power of the ocean surrounding and engulfing you.

Let us hold the intention here of releasing any urges within us to self-abandon,

To betray our needs,

To sacrifice ourselves for others in ways that does not serve ourselves.

Let us release all of these urges,

And so on your own,

Say out loud,

I alchemize all that stands in the way of radical self-love into deep breath.

Begin taking deep breaths in and out.

Allow the speed of these breaths to enhance.

And allow yourself on each exhalation to release,

And feel yourself now empowered by the energies of the ocean,

Breathing out everything that stands in the way of you nourishing yourself with self-love and giving yourself exactly what you need.

And just keep breathing,

Allowing the pace to quicken and ensuring your breaths are deep and your exhalations full.

And releasing this deep breathing,

Feeling yourself lighter,

Feeling yourself empowered to take on the world and to love yourself fiercely.

See yourself standing on this beach and walking down into the water.

Feel the ocean waves on your ankles,

Feel the wet sand beneath your toes,

And allow yourself to get all the way in,

Up to your hips.

And standing here,

Swaying with the rhythms of the ocean,

Allow yourself to dive in fully,

Realizing this joy,

This abandonment,

This joy of being in the ocean.

Fully,

Realizing this joy,

This abandon is yours,

You own it,

It is a part of you.

And just release into the joy of swimming in this water,

Of being surrounded by so much energy.

And now,

See yourself flying up into the night sky,

The full moon silhouetting you.

And see yourself going so far and so fast,

You're out in the space,

Looking down at the earth from above.

And here,

Seeing us all surrounding the planet,

All of this energy,

All of this love.

And allow yourself to shower the planet with your love,

Knowing that by filling ourselves up,

Knowing that by filling ourselves up,

And that by releasing any tendencies we have to sacrifice our needs,

We are enabling ourselves to become the clearest channels for divine love manifesting on the planet.

And so just open to that now,

Become the channel of love that you are meant to be.

And here,

Surrounded by so much and so many,

Feel yourself joined by another,

Feel them coming in close beside you.

And realize that here,

Looking down on the earth,

That there is more that surrounds you,

That there are ancestors and guides and friends from other lifetimes that are here helping you.

And feeling the presence of one of these helpers now,

Open to learning more about them.

Just leave your mind open to receive anything they have to share with you.

And now see us all back around that fire,

Having never left,

Still connected deeply on this higher level of existence.

And know that we can return to this place,

That we can return to this connection,

That we can retain this level of self-love,

And we can move through our lives filled up by the joy of living this way.

Here and now,

I ask for a blessing to seal these intentions,

And calling on all of the beautiful energy that surrounds us,

Calling on our own power.

I want to set the intention now,

And please do so with me,

Of sealing this practice in a way that enables the most amount of self-love that can be felt in this world.

In a way that enables the most amount of self-love to manifest in our lives.

That allows us to always act on our own best behalf,

Knowing that it's only through the pursuit of our greatest good and our highest excitements that we can move towards creating the world we all deserve.

And so,

Having received this blessing,

And having connected with so much and so many,

Let us release these connections now with love,

Knowing we may return to them when we need to.

And find yourself coming back to your physical body.

And allow yourself to release into the present moment.

Sense the space around you.

Allow your body to gently move and stretch.

Take a deep breath in,

And out.

And whenever you're ready,

Open your eyes.

Thank you so much for being a part of this meditation.

I hope it served you well.

Namaste,

My friend.
