Mary has Eventually tertiyed Good day everyone.
I'm so glad that you've joined me today and happy May!
We are in May now.
And for this month I am doing Metta in May,
So that's Loving Kindness for May.
And today for the Peace Meditation Circle I'll be doing a special meditation with Loving Kindness phrases for ourselves.
And I'll have a special healing protocol,
So certain notes I'll be playing,
Certain bowls,
That is,
That I'll be playing for our protocol today.
So I ask that you become comfortable wherever you are,
If you're sitting,
If you're lying down.
Please go ahead and take a moment to do that.
Again,
Our meditation for today is the intention of loving kindness for yourself.
And I'll guide you through this meditation.
So we'll have an intention,
We'll have loving kindness phrases,
And then I'll begin our specific sound healing protocol as well for our own well-being.
And as I indicated,
The protocol is specific notes that will help you to enhance your well-being and helping you to stop that mind chatter so you can relax and receive exactly what you need in this meditation today.
So we'll go about 15,
20 minutes or so with the singing bowls,
And then we'll go into silence for the rest of our total of a 30-minute session.
And I'll end the session with tinctures so you know when we're done at our 30-minute mark.
So as I said,
You can sit down or lie down for our meditation today.
Take a few moments to unwind.
To ease into our practice today,
Let go of anything that may be weighing you down.
Release whatever may be binding.
Escape from the busyness of life and tune into yourself for the remainder of our session today.
Become aware of your breath and feel your belly rise with air.
Soften your face.
Soften your shoulders.
Follow the rhythm of your breath,
Paying attention to its duration.
Lengthen and deepen your breath to a rhythm that is comfortable for you.
Your arms,
Your legs,
Your feet.
And surrender every muscle to the surface you're resting on.
Take some more time to appreciate the stillness and the serenity around you.
Face the water.
Take a moment here to gently scan your attention through your body,
Seeing if there's any areas of tension that you can soften and release.
The muscles around the eyes,
Perhaps the forehead.
Allow the jaw to drop slightly.
Let the shoulders gently fall away from the ears.
Softening the belly gently.
Telling yourself to notice any additional places of tension in the body and soften into them.
Let the shoulders gently fall away from the ears.
Start to bring to mind your desire for well-being,
Happiness,
Ease,
And safety.
Perhaps you have an additional intention for today.
Might even reflect on a time when you felt particularly happy and safe.
Using this intention or memory,
You can start to repeat meta or loving kindness phrases to yourself.
May I be happy.
May I be well.
May I be safe.
May I be peaceful and at ease.
Whenever your mind wanders,
Come back to these phrases or similar.
May I be happy.
May I be well.
May I be safe.
May I be peaceful and at ease.
If it feels helpful to you,
You can gently place one or both hands on your heart and keep repeating these phrases.
May I be happy.
May I be well.
May I be safe.
May I be peaceful and at ease.
May I be well.
May I be well.
May I be happy.
May I be well.
May I be safe.
May I be peaceful and at ease.
You might find it helpful to sync the phrases with your breath.
Saying half the phrase on the inhale,
May I,
And the second half on the exhale,
Be happy.
May I be well.
May I be safe.
May I be peaceful and at ease.
May I be well.
May I be well.
May I be well.
May I be peaceful and at ease.
May I be well.
May I be well.
