You are not responsible for the world.
Take a deep inhale as you settle in,
And a deeper exhale.
May you close your eyes as you become aware of the quality of your thoughts,
Quality of your mood,
Your feelings,
Quality of any sensations in your physical body,
Gently recognizing what is happening for you at this moment,
Allowing it to be just as it is,
No plans,
No agenda.
This moment is for you to surrender to what you are,
What you believe to be,
For right now.
Letting go of any plans,
Things to take care of later today or tomorrow.
For this moment,
Letting go of the familiar of your yesterday and the predictability of tomorrow.
Let go.
You are not responsible for the world.
Relaxing your toes,
Your lower legs,
Your glutes.
Lower back,
Belly,
Collarbone,
The lower back of your head,
Your forehead.
Begin to feel what is underneath you.
If you are sitting up,
Feeling the chair below you.
If your feet are touching the ground,
Feel the sturdiness and denseness of the earth.
If you're laying down,
Feel how your back rests into what it is being supported by.
Feeling the reassurance that is there.
For this moment,
I want you to allow yourself to feel held with nothing to give back.
What's there holding you is there for you,
And it wants nothing in return.
Allow yourself to rest into that.
Give any to-dos,
Worries,
Doubts,
And what-ifs into whatever it is that's not supporting you,
And let go.
Take a deep inhale,
And a deeper exhale.
You are not responsible for the world.
Begin to listen to what's around you.
Subtle noises,
Any cars passing by,
Air blowing through the vents,
Noise at the refrigerator.
Keeping your eyes closed,
Imagining the space that's filling up the room you're in.
All the air that's still or circulating around you.
Take another deep inhale,
And a deeper exhale.
Know that the air going through your lungs is there for you.
This air is giving you life.
This air comes from the divine mystery of what-is.
It loves you.
It adores you,
And it wants only the best for you.
You always have it there to shower your inner body with tenderness and joy.
Feel that love flow throughout your body.
Just feel.
You are not responsible for the world.
Bringing your awareness to something larger than you.
Feeling the air on your skin.
Imagining the sky at this moment,
And what that's like.
Recognizing that there is a silent and pure working behind all of this.
Draw on this.
Allow it to shower you with its presence.
Nothing to give,
Nothing to take.
Just allow yourself to be nourished.
Rest into that.
You are not responsible for the world.
Know that you have not been forgotten.
You have not been abandoned.
It has always been there for you.
Always working in your favor.
Watching over you.
Seeing the best in you,
And loving you.
Completely loving you.
Reach for this.
Always.
You are not responsible for the world.
Feel the nourishment that has been given to you.
Feel the aliveness of your body.
Feel the presence.
The loving support that is available for you at any moment.
