In this guided meditation, we first relax our bodies and still our minds, before floating together down a beautiful river. We connect with our lower energetic centers, healing ourselves with Reiki energy, and focusing our minds with the use of affirmational mantras.

Thank you so much for joining this meditation.

Today we will be surrendering into trust of the universe.

Please find a comfortable position,

Seated or lying down.

Allow your spine to extend out straight.

Keep your neck long.

Roll your shoulders down and back,

Lifting your heart space.

And if you haven't already,

Please close your eyes.

Let us scan through our bodies,

Checking for any tightness and releasing it as we go.

And so start at the top of your head,

Scanning down through the muscles of your face.

Relax your tongue,

Release your jaw,

And allow this wave of relaxation to sweep down into your neck and your shoulders.

Breathe into the space,

Allowing the breath to loosen your muscles.

Feel this relaxation sweep down your arms and into your hands.

Feel it dive into your chest and your upper back.

And allow your deep breathing to clear any tension you might be holding onto.

Feel this relaxation sweeping down into your stomach and your lower back.

Let it relax all of the muscles there.

Feel into your hips and your thighs and allow them to relax.

Move your attention down onto your knees,

Ankles,

And feet.

Relax your whole body here.

And feel into your connection with Mother Earth.

Feel how grounded you are.

Feel how held you are.

And know that Mother Earth is here to support and nurture you.

And simply release into these wonderful feelings of being held by gravity and Mother Earth.

On your next inhalation,

Take a deep breath in,

Filling yourself completely,

And hold.

Squeeze and release.

Let's take one more deep breath like this.

And so breathe fully in,

All the way,

And hold.

Squeeze everything in.

And release.

Wonderful.

And so just release control of your breathing.

Allow it to find its own rhythm.

Its natural pace.

Simply witness its flow.

Become the observer and notice any thoughts or feelings that rise within you,

Knowing they are not you.

And allow them to pass.

Allow yourself to stay here with my voice and the present moment.

Returning now to our intentions of surrendering into a trust of the universe,

I want you to see yourself standing on the shore of a wide river.

I want you to feel your feet in the water.

Feel the heat of the sun high above.

And allow yourself to wade in deeper.

Allow the waters to reach up to your hips.

And here,

I want you to push off,

And I want you to float on your back in this water,

Down this river.

And so floating here on the sacred river,

Allow yourself the space to relax.

Give yourself permission to let go of anything you may have carried into this practice.

Take this time for yourself,

Knowing that you are safe here and that you deserve this.

And so feeling yourself floating down this river,

Sensing the revitalizing energies of nature all around you,

Please raise your hands to your heart,

One hand gently placed over top the other.

Simply feel here the abundant energy of your heart,

And allow yourself to cycle energy out of your heart,

Into your shoulders,

Down your arms,

Out of your hands,

And back into your heart.

And allow this to become a feedback loop of healing energy,

Cycling your own love through your heart.

And held here by these healing energies of the heart,

Let us rest for a few minutes.

If at any moment you find yourself distracted by thoughts or feelings,

Bring yourself back to this moment with the mantra,

I trust in the love of my heart.

I trust in the love of my heart.

I trust in the love of my heart.

I trust in the love of my heart.

Still floating down this beautiful river,

Having connected with our heart's energy and amplified its healing vibrations throughout our body,

Please move your hands down onto your solar plexus,

One hand atop the other.

And here,

Let the same healing energy cycle through you,

Finding its way into your solar plexus,

And back out through your arms,

Into your hands.

This feedback loop of healing vibrations.

And so just let go here,

Into these feelings.

And if at any moment you find yourself distracted by thoughts or feelings that rise up,

Bring yourself back to this moment,

Back to yourself floating this river,

Using the mantra,

I trust in my instincts.

I trust in my instincts.

I trust in my beliefs.

Having empowered our solar plexus,

Let us move our hands down onto our belly and allow that same healing energy to cycle through you,

Through your arms and your hands and into your belly.

Here,

Still floating down this beautiful river,

Still soaking in the positive vibrations of nature,

Allow yourself to stay present in the moment by using the mantra,

I trust in the flow of life.

And so if any thoughts or feelings arise,

Let them pass and return to the mantra,

I trust in the flow of life.

I trust in the flow of life.

I trust in the flow of life.

Now,

Having done this work to cultivate trust within ourselves,

Allow your hands to rest on your lap or the floor beside you.

And still seeing yourself float this river,

Seeing yourself lying there with your arms outstretched and your palms facing upward,

Notice that the water is slowing.

Feel how the river is coming into stillness,

And allow this calming energy to swim through you,

Relaxing you.

And I want you to see that pouring down onto you from above the river's waters is pure white healing light.

See the brightness,

Feel the warmth,

And open to the white healing light that's pouring down onto you.

Feel your meridians opening to it,

Opening your crown,

Opening your root,

And allow yourself to fully receive this light.

Allow yourself to feel its love.

And if at any moment thoughts or feelings arise,

Allow them to pass and bring yourself back to this moment with the mantra,

I trust in the universe.

I trust in the universe.

I trust in the universe.

I trust in the universe.

Finally,

I want you to see yourself reaching the shore,

Finding a beach at the bottom of this river,

And see yourself rising up,

Coming to stand on the water's edge.

And here,

Watching this river move slowly past,

Standing on its shore,

Let us pool our collective intentions.

Let us connect with all others who have done this meditation,

Or are meditating around the world on their own right now.

And let us push this healing.

Let us allow this trust we've cultivated to flow out and reach every human soul,

Every living being,

And our beautiful Mother Earth.

And so just allow yourself to be a conduit for the loving energy of the universe and shine it out to all.

And so now,

See yourself walking away from the river,

And feel yourself coming back to your body.

Allow your fingers and toes to gently move.

Allow your body to stretch.

Take a deep breath in,

And a deep breath out.

And whenever you're ready,

Open your eyes.

Thank you so much for doing this practice with me today.

I am truly grateful for the opportunity to have connected with you here.

Namaste.
