Thank you so much for joining this meditation.
This is Daphne Garrido and today we are going to be leaning in to trust,
Knowing that the universe is leading us where we're supposed to go and surrendering any egoic attachment,
Allowing ourselves to flow with life and to find the best path forward always.
And so please find a comfortable position,
Seated or lying down,
Allowing your body to grow tall,
Your neck long,
Roll your shoulders down and back,
Lifting your heart space.
And whenever you're ready,
Close your eyes.
Let's start with some deep breathing into our chest and so breathe in deeply,
Breathe in fully and exhale completely,
Letting it all out.
And just breathe here,
In and out,
Allowing yourself to be filled up with bright white light,
Shining and shimmering as it enters.
And feel yourself releasing any darkness,
Any negativity that you may have been holding inside.
And so just let go into this breathing,
Feeling yourself becoming purified and expanding into your fullest self.
And continuing this breathing,
Let us for a moment conjure up the images or the memories of something that makes us truly grateful.
And so find this object of gratitude and continue breathing into your heart space,
Allowing the white light to heal you and the gratitude to empower the process.
And releasing this breathing,
Allow yourself to find a natural,
Uncontrolled breath.
Simply witness its flow.
And allow yourself to step back here.
Become the observer of thoughts.
If you feel any anxieties,
Any lingering temptations to become absorbed in the past or the future,
Know that these thoughts and feelings are valid and that you may return to them anytime you need to.
But just for now,
Allow them to find their ways out towards the edge of your conscious attention.
And feel into a deeper presence,
A presence that resonates from within your heart.
And feel yourself becoming free of any anxious thoughts or feelings,
Seeing them and wishing them well,
Without judgment,
In honor of yourself.
And just feel into this space where we have released so much.
And on your next inhalation,
Take a very deep breath in,
Filling yourself all the way.
And let it go.
Take one more deep breath in,
All the way up.
And hold it.
Squeeze everything in around your spine,
Feeling that energy rise.
And release.
See yourself moving through the woods.
See the bright blue sky through the treetops.
Feel a cool breeze.
And feel the gentle vibrations of nature all around you.
Notice that you are hearing the sound of running water.
And that you are growing closer to it as you walk through these woods.
And coming over the crest of a small hill,
See the river before you,
Broad but still.
And know that this is the river of life.
Feel that it is made of love and compassion.
Feel the energy emanating from it.
And see yourself sitting on its edge.
And hear the gentle sounds of water relaxing you.
Take a moment to reflect on things in your life that you wish to achieve.
Whatever is coming up for you,
Feel in to the passion of your heart.
Feel in to the sensations of feeling that these ideas,
That these manifestations conjure for you.
Whatever it makes you feel,
Open yourself to share this with this beautiful river of life.
See yourself lifting a leaf from the ground beside you.
And allow your heart to connect energetically with this leaf.
And know that this leaf is a wish.
It is you setting your intentions to manifest this brighter future into your life.
Feel yourself releasing your wish for the future.
Knowing that our Mother Earth will hold it and keep it safe for you.
That she will nourish it and help it grow.
And set the leaf down on the river,
Watching it float away.
And feeling yourself come into deep harmony with the knowing that you have made your intentions clear and that the universe has heard you.
And watching this leaf go,
Finally seeing it turn around a bend in the river.
See yourself standing and wading into the river yourself.
Feel this loving energy blowing up through you.
Feel it reaching and empowering your heart.
Feel it opening the crown of your head,
Allowing you to receive wisdom from the universe.
And allow yourself to push off into this river,
Spinning around and floating on your back.
And just know that you are safe here.
Know that you are protected.
And allow yourself to fully release into the trust that your intentions,
That your dreams have been heard and understood.
And that you can let go of trying to control and make them happen.
And simply open to receive the gifts that the universe has in store for you.
And so allow yourself to continue floating down this river.
And just let go.
And here,
Still floating on this river of trust,
This river of love.
Come back to your physical body,
Maintaining connection with this part of you that is floating down the river of life,
Trusting the process,
Trusting that they are taken care of.
And feel that that self remains within you as your presence returns fully to your body.
And so,
Begin to sense the space around you.
Allow yourself to gently move and stretch.
Take a deep breath in.
And let it go.
And whenever you're ready,
Open your eyes.
Thank you so much for taking part in this meditation today.
I hope it serves you well.
Namaste,
My friend.
