Dissolving Pain

This meditation is a living transmission to dissolve pain (physical or emotional). Using open awareness, sacred breath, and binaural therapy accompanied by courage we allow the pain to exist and give it space. In that space, we feel how it dissolves back into love. Breathe together with the 4/8 rhythm that is in the background and just be.

Welcome,

Dear one.

Settling into the space.

Landing in your body.

Making yourself comfortable in a horizontal position.

Landing the weight of your body over to gravity,

As you lean on Mother Earth.

Receiving and accepting her support.

We will start this practice off with a hissing breath or the Shikari breath.

Keeping your jaw relaxed and your teeth close together.

The hissing breath we are going to inhale through the mouth and exhale through the nose.

Keeping your teeth close together,

You are just going to separate your lips,

Exposing your teeth.

Almost like turning your mouth into a big smile.

From this position,

You invite the air in through your teeth,

Into your lungs,

And slowly out of your nose.

This will create the hissing sound.

Just before we exhale,

We are going to hold the breath at the top of the inhale.

Without any need to force,

We are simply holding the breath at the top of the inhale to relax into the body as much as we can.

Once you feel that your relaxation has achieved its depth,

Then you exhale and that exhale is going to assist the relaxation to be carried even deeper.

So separating your lips,

Exposing your teeth,

Inhale,

Hold,

Relax your body and slowly exhale through your nose.

Carry on breathing in this manner,

Following your own rhythm.

As you inhale through the mouth,

Hold it at the top of that inhale,

Relax into every single muscle and then exhale.

I invite you to take a deep breath in and out.

I invite you to attentively listen to the silence in between the words.

There is nothing to do.

Whatever happens will happen by itself,

Just like listening is happening.

So just for now,

Dear one,

Surrender the responsibility towards the need to have to do anything.

Everything is exactly the way it is supposed to be.

If I allow this feeling,

I'll go mad,

I'll lose myself.

The feeling will stay forever.

I will die.

These are only and all fears of the mind,

Trying to reach future scenes so it can avoid them.

Return to this moment.

Notice that it is your sanity and clarity that is projecting this fear,

Meaning you are not mad.

It is the voice of fear originating from mind,

Only trying to help.

Pain can be the gatekeeper,

Protecting a precious gift,

Like a dragon protecting a princess,

Almost like saying thou shall not pass.

Just like the hero in the story,

The gatekeeper is overruled when the hero realizes the truth,

Giving rise to the hero,

Realizing their true strength and purpose.

That voice of fear,

The gatekeeper's words,

Doesn't stop the hero.

That gatekeeper is actually not an enemy.

It was never really going to stop you,

Dear one.

All the gatekeeper is doing is bringing clarity to you becoming aware that this is really your path,

This healing,

This presence,

This end of self-abandonment,

This inner war,

This disalignment.

Is this really your path?

They may appear to be your enemy,

But they are actually your friends.

Awareness is the hero,

To be aware of the gatekeeper's voice from the mind.

Bring your awareness back to this moment.

Bring your awareness back to noticing the source that can perceive the gatekeeper.

That is your true safety in this moment.

That which knows the mind is untouched by its content.

Ground yourself in observing the awareness.

Go very slow.

Don't push past your limit.

There is absolutely no obligation to turn this guidance into a should.

Trust and honour your edges from a point of optimal benefit.

Pain exists because of consciousness and attention.

Pain is created partly due to awareness.

Thus,

You can also dissolve pain from and through awareness.

It is important to know the difference between pain and suffering.

Pain is a direct sensation that is happening in the present moment.

Suffering however is created by the mind.

It is based on belief systems giving meaning to what is happening now,

Past or future.

Suffering is imprinting its opinion and perspective onto the present moment.

Pain is an important factor of life.

Suffering however isn't.

All suffering is created by resistance to what is.

So how do you lower that resistance?

One identify with mind,

Body and expectations.

Harmonizing with the moment and what it has to offer dissolves suffering and pain.

So it is not about using the opposite energy to try to dissolve it.

When you drop your assistance to pain and allow yourself to feel it fully,

It automatically dissolves.

But why does pain exist with or without purpose or reason?

The spiritual purpose of pain and suffering is to show us where we are not yet free.

To give you an opportunity to become more free,

Rescuing yourself from the gatekeeper.

We know how to allow without resistance.

We do it all the time with pleasurable emotions.

We do not get stuck in pleasurable emotions because we allow them without resistance which causes the emotion to be experienced fully and then dissolve.

You already know how to surrender and let it in completely.

So let's move from the form to the formless as we move into the space which gives rise to the space for everything that exists.

Is it possible for you to feel the spaces between your fingers?

Guiding your awareness to feel the space between your toes?

Can you imagine the slight spaces between your lips?

Resting your awareness in the small spaces of your ear canal.

Now inviting a deep breath into your lungs.

Hold.

And then exhale as slowly as you can.

Exhaling and letting go along with this exhale.

Any tension and resistance that no longer serves.

Settling into the space between this exhale and the next inhale.

Kindly and lovingly.

And exploring while you feel the reinforcement of safety and relaxation.

Bringing you deeper into this journey.

If the intuition of your body is asking you to take a small sip of air,

Just make sure that you blow all the air back out and surrender into the silence.

Feeling into the emptiness.

Hearing the silence.

Freely move into the spaciousness.

And if your journey has come to the inhale,

Then inviting that deep breath in filling your chest.

Pulling on your Mula Bandha.

Assisting the energy to permeate through every single cell's consciousness.

Is it possible for you to become aware of the space where you invite the breath into your nostrils?

Can you imagine the space that's in between your eyes?

Relax and feel the space that is in between your ribcage.

Simply rest your awareness in the spaces in between your spine.

With every breath,

Imagining that you are moving one vertebra at a time from the base of your skull down,

Down the 7 vertebra in your neck.

Noticing around the vertebra,

Noticing the permeable spaces.

Becoming aware.

How your attention and awareness is delivered into your spinal column.

Is it possible to imagine the volume of your spinal cord travelling through your neck?

Traveling into this permeable space like a hollow tube.

Traveling your awareness up into the spinal column in your neck on the inhale.

Imagine that it's moving down your neck on the exhale.

Locate and notice where the pain is the strongest without resistance.

It might take some time but know that there is nothing for you to do.

Let your body do inventory while you make your awareness available to what the body has to offer.

Lately listening and watching inward,

Simply allowing and surrendering,

Giving yourself permission to feel.

Without any stories,

Expectations attached.

Allow yourself to feel the pain,

At the same time as allowing yourself to sense,

Feel,

Hear and be aware of the space around the pain.

Holding the breath on the exhale now.

Move this awareness.

Channel it around in the spaciousness around this pain.

Almost like your awareness in this space is creating a safe container for you to feel more deeply.

More fully.

The more and more layers that present themselves are dissolved in this exact way.

Be silent.

Be still.

This vast space is safe to feel.

If your journey is moving over towards the inhale.

Notice how you are merely witnessing the body invite the breath in.

While your awareness is guided back to the spaciousness.

Almost like zooming out with an open awareness.

The light of your consciousness can permeate more deeply into your core.

Allow your awareness to create more and more awareness.

To create more space around the edges of the pain.

Zoom out.

Feel into the emptiness.

Fear the silence.

Allow your awareness to move into the spaciousness.

Setting the pain free.

Giving it more roaming space to dissolve into your healing awareness.

All is well,

Dear one.

Rest here in the space of wellness,

Tranquility,

Peace and contentment.

Namaste.
