Transcript

Welcome to this new moon meditation,

Where we will be using our breath to harness the energy of the new moon into an intention we'd like to set for ourselves.

New moon symbolize new beginnings,

Symbolizes the shadow,

The darkness,

Anything that is hidden,

Anything that would like to be revealed to ourselves.

It's a perfect time to plant any new seeds for something that you'd like to realize for the future.

So let's begin by finding a comfortable seat.

However that may look like for you,

Choosing a seat of choice,

Somewhere that's close to the ground as we will be working with a few breath holds.

Maybe that's in yogi crisscross position.

Maybe that's sitting on a cushion,

Helping to elevate the pelvis,

Helping to keep the spine straight.

Maybe that's sitting on your knees,

Glutes to the heels.

Finding a position that works for you and where you can be comfortable for a few minutes.

A position where the spine can be straight,

Ideally knees below the hips.

And once you've found your seat,

Gently close your eyes,

Beginning to relax the shoulders,

Relaxing the jaw,

Relaxing the space in between the eyebrows,

And relax the mind.

If you'd like you can also place your hands on your knees,

Palms facing the sky,

In gesture of reception,

Open to receiving.

The very act of closing our eyes intentionally allows us to bring our awareness inwards.

Temporarily shutting out the outside world,

Quieting the external noise,

Pulling us in multiple directions,

Feeding our brains and our minds and our thoughts.

Closing the sensory experience that stimulates our emotional experience,

Beginning to connect to the world inside,

Into our hearts,

Connecting to ourselves,

Our intuition,

And our inner truth.

And if you haven't already,

Beginning to shift your attention into your breath,

Noticing how the subtle shift of attention into the breath automatically deepens it,

Perhaps slows it down.

Noticing if the breath is either shallow,

Staying in the upper chest,

Is it deep,

Flowing down into the belly,

Is it short,

Is it long.

Let's take a moment to set an intention for the practice today,

Where you'd like to harness the new moon energy.

Channeling all your mental energy into your intention,

Maybe it's a feeling you're working to cultivate,

Maybe it's a goal you'd like to realize,

Maybe you'd like to offer your intention or energy to someone who may need it,

Maybe you need this energy.

And if it's helpful,

You can sum up your intention to one word,

A few words,

Or maybe a sentence,

Making it a mantra or an affirmation.

This may make it easier for the mind to come back into your intention as it will wander off,

Bringing it back to the word or sentence that you set can help keep our attention into our intention.

Maybe you'd like to visualize your intention as if it's already true,

Visualizing how it would look like once it's realized,

How it would feel like in existence.

For a moment,

Allowing the mind to focus on this feeling,

On this visualization,

Channeling and harnessing all mental energy towards it.

So we'll begin our practice with the three-part breath,

Where we'll keep the breath through the nose initially,

When we inhale and as we exhale.

With every inhale,

We'll allow the belly to expand,

Allowing the air to travel up into the ribs,

Allowing the ribcage to expand,

And then allowing it to travel up into the upper chest,

The collarbones,

And allowing that to expand.

And then once we exhale,

We allow the air to flow out through the upper chest,

The mid chest,

And out of the belly.

So you can bring one hand onto your belly,

One hand into the heart center,

Just to feel the flow of the air traveling through the three parts.

Exhaling all the air out to prepare.

And let's take a deep inhale,

Allowing the belly to expand,

Allowing the ribcage to expand,

Allowing the upper chest to expand.

And exhale,

Allowing the body and mind to completely relax.

Inhale,

Allowing the belly to expand,

Ribcage expands,

Upper chest expands,

Shoulders stay relaxed,

And exhale letting out.

Continuing a few more rounds like this.

Inhale,

Exhale.

Inhale,

Belly expands,

Traveling up into the ribcage,

Into the upper chest,

And exhale to release.

Inhale,

Allowing the belly to expand,

Mid chest,

Upper chest,

And exhale to release.

Building up to a count of four for inhales and exhales,

Keeping the three part breath engaged.

Inhale for four,

Three,

Two,

One.

Exhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Inhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Exhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Inhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Exhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Inhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Exhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

We'll begin adding holds in between inhales and exhales now.

So exhaling all the air out.

Inhale for two,

Three,

Four.

Hold,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Exhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Hold,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Inhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Hold,

Two.

Relax the shoulders,

Three,

Four.

Exhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Hold,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Last round like this.

Inhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Hold,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Exhale,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Hold,

Two,

Three,

Four,

And release.

Coming back to your regular breath.

If the breath holds felt comfortable for the count of four,

We'll pick it up to a longer hold,

Otherwise keeping the breath held for as long as you'd like.

The beauty of the breath hold is that it temporarily pauses the communication between the mind and body and body to mind,

Allowing more oxygen to travel up into the brain and releasing any neural circuits,

Any connections,

Previous conditions,

Patterns that have been created,

Pausing all of that communication for a moment.

And as the oxygen travels up into the brain,

It releases those circuits or wirings that have been made.

And in the breath hold,

When you bring all your mental energy into the intention you'd like to set,

Your brain will begin to create connections that are aligned to your intention,

Raising your frequency,

Raising your vibration to an intention that you'd like to realize.

Sometimes even though we are very clear on where we'd like to go or what we'd like to manifest,

Sometimes our body is stuck in a certain vibration as it builds up and collects all the experiences of the past.

So breath work is a great way to release those conditioned responses,

Creating a neutral canvas in the mind and body and allowing for new connections to get created,

Releasing old frequencies,

Lower vibrations,

And helping to raise our vibration to meet our intention.

The brain doesn't know the difference between a real and fake experience as long as emotions are attached to it,

It registers it as real.

So in the breath hold,

Bring all mental energy into your intention,

Feel it,

Believe it,

Visualize it,

And you will begin to create those circuits in the mind.

So you'll begin to think,

Act,

And behave in a way that's aligned to your intention.

What we'll do now is take three breaths through the nose,

Inhale,

And exhale through the mouth.

They're very active.

We'll take a deep inhale,

Allowing the air to travel up into the belly,

Rib cage,

Upper chest,

All three parts.

Deep inhale,

And when we exhale through,

Pierce lips,

Forceful exhale as we contract the belly.

So it sounds like this.

So instead of a sigh,

Instead of we're piercing our lips,

Exhaling out as if we're blowing into a balloon.

So not ah,

Rather shh.

And as you exhale,

You're going to use your abdominal muscles to contract the belly button inwards.

We'll take three breaths in through the nose,

Exhale through the mouth.

We'll then take three breaths in through the nose,

Exhale through the nose,

And then we'll inhale to hold the breath.

In the breath hold,

Hold for as long as you're comfortable.

You can even pause the recording to hold the breath for as long as you'd like before we continue forward.

And in the hold,

Bring all mental energy into your intention.

And if the mind wanders out,

Bring it,

Get back into your intention.

So let's prepare,

Exhaling all the air out.

Let's begin with three breaths in nose,

Exhale mouth,

Deep inhale in,

Exhale mouth,

Inhale in,

Exhale mouth.

Last one like this,

Inhale in,

Exhale mouth.

Three more breaths,

Nose,

Nose,

Inhale nose,

Exhale nose,

Inhale nose,

Exhale nose,

Inhale nose,

Exhale nose.

This time,

Inhale to hold the breath,

Deep inhale,

Holding the breath at the top of the lungs,

Relaxing the shoulders,

And bringing all your mental energy into your intention.

Continue to repeat the mantra,

Your affirmation.

The belief,

The visualization.

It's normal if the mind wanders off,

Simply bring it back,

And gently release,

And slowly coming back.

We'll do all of that one more time.

Again,

You can pause the recording if you'd like to hold the breath for a little longer.

The breath is very active,

It's a deep inhale,

Expanding the belly,

Rib cage,

And upper chest,

And the exhales are proactive,

Actively pulling the belly button back in,

Where you engage the abdominals.

So let's begin with three breaths,

Nose,

Mouth,

Continued by three breaths,

Nose,

Nose,

Followed by one more inhale to hold.

Let's prepare,

Exhaling all the air out through the nose,

And taking a deep inhale through the nose,

Exhale mouth,

Inhale nose,

Exhale mouth,

Inhale nose,

Exhale mouth.

Three breaths,

Nose,

Nose,

Inhale,

Exhale nose,

Inhale,

Exhale nose,

Inhale,

Exhale nose.

Taking a deep inhale to hold the breath,

Filling up the lungs,

Hold the breath here,

Relax the shoulders,

And bringing all mental energy into your intention,

Coming back to the visualization,

Your mantra,

Your affirmation,

The feeling,

And stay connected to that vibration,

Feeling the vibration shower and fill up every cell,

Relaxing the shoulders,

And leaning into the vibration,

And gently release,

And slowly coming back.

Staying connected to the vibration,

The vibration,

The elevated frequency for a couple more moments,

Knowing you can always come back to your breath,

And to this feeling using breath control,

Breath holds.
