Hi,
This is Beth.
Welcome to a practice with the 99 Names and Attributes of Allah.
This practice has its roots in Islam.
However,
To make it more accessible to those who would ordinarily not be exposed to the Muslim religion,
I am sharing the 99 Names of God in English here.
Release the body's weight to whatever support is beneath you.
Allow the spine to relax but be tall and sovereign.
And begin to slow and deepen each inhalation and exhalation.
Take in the energies of each of these beautiful names.
Notice that each name may impact you in different ways.
You'll have about 30 seconds of reflection upon each name.
Our practice will complete with the sound of a bell.
If you enjoy it,
Please be sure to follow my profile here on Insight Timer for more meditations and live events with me.
Now,
As we begin,
Be aware of sensations in the body,
However small.
Be aware of thoughts that may come to you,
Memories,
Images.
Be open to any emotions or feelings that arise.
And also notice any subtle vibration,
Light,
Or sound that may arise.
And receive the blessings,
Insights,
And gifts that they hold for you.
