Hello and welcome to the Writer's Club.
My name is Darius,
And I'm so grateful that you and I get this time together.
Let's begin our practice.
If your eyes are open,
I'd like to invite you to close them now.
As we start to go inwards together.
Nice and slow.
Taking longer,
Deeper breaths.
With each inhale,
Imagining new creative energy coming into our system.
With each exhale,
We are letting go of anything you no longer need to carry.
I want to encourage you to make some noise with your breath,
Even if it's a quiet noise.
We want to invite your voice into the picture.
We want to remind your voice that it matters,
That it's allowed to take up space here,
Now.
And we want your voice and the vibration and frequency of your voice to start to impact your body,
Your throat,
Your chest,
Your cells.
Let's take a deep breath together here,
Breathing in.
Big exhale out.
Ahhhh.
I'm going to share some affirmations.
You get to choose if you'd like to take them in or if you'd like to watch them float away.
Let's begin nice and slow.
Taking a nice deep breath here.
Big exhale out.
I am here now.
I am here now.
My heart is open.
My heart is open.
I trust the truth inside me.
I trust the truth inside me.
I am releasing the pressure to prove myself.
I am releasing the pressure to prove myself.
I let go of rushing my becoming.
I let go of rushing my becoming.
I am saved to share my heart and my truth.
I am safe to share my heart and my truth.
My voice carries something sacred.
My voice carries something sacred.
Just take a moment to feel the energy that's here now.
Continue taking deep breaths.
Maybe you were resistant to every single one of those affirmations.
Maybe one or two worked their way through.
Maybe more.
Even if your mind doesn't get it or resists it,
There is a frequency,
A vibration,
An energy we are within.
The universe is working in incredible,
Mysterious ways.
To set you up for success.
Take some more deep breaths here.
When we take deep breaths,
We open our channels.
We move from our head into our heart.
Feeling your feet against the ground,
Sitting with a tall,
Gentle spine.
Heart open.
Voice opened.
Vision Open.
Third eye open.
Your crown.
Open,
Tall,
Ready to receive.
This is our last song.
I'm going to leave some space for you to feel what's here.
And to find your intention for our writing today.
And let's take a nice deep breath here to bring our meditation to an end.
Breathing in.
Big exhale out.
Bravo,
Dear artist.
Bravo,
Dear writer.
You made it to the end of our meditation.
For that,
I am so grateful.
For those joining us live at the Writer's Club,
I'm gonna put 66 minutes on the clock,
Share an optional writing exercise,
And allow us to dive in to our stories,
To our writing,
To a way in which we want to contribute tribute to our community and to our world this week.
Of course,
As always,
If you're catching this on a replay,
Perhaps on Insight Timer,
You can do the same.
Thank you once again for meditating with me.
My name is Darius,
And I will see you next time.
