Transcript

In this short meditation we are going to learn the simple basics about breathing.

Breathing is at the core of all meditations and is an essential base upon which we found all of our meditative exercises.

So it is very important that we learn how to breathe properly.

Now breathing needs to be calm,

Like the ebb and flow of the tides,

The waves upon the beach,

The gradual waxing and waning of the moon.

It is a natural process.

We are in harmony with the patterns and the rhythms of the universe.

So let us now breathe deeply in and then gently out.

We are not breathing from our throat or our lungs,

But from our diaphragm,

Deep and filling up your lungs and release.

Now as we inhale I would like you to imagine a pure white or silver energy coming into your body through the crown of your head,

What is known as the crown chakra.

So each breath you inhale you are allowing this white or silver energy to enter our body and fill us.

Every cell,

Every single part of our body is glowing with this white luminescent energy.

This energy is the source,

The source of everything in this universe,

That from which everything emanates,

The beginning and the end,

The alpha and the omega.

This is what we are allowing into our bodies now,

Source energy.

Source energy is rejuvenating,

It renews,

It invigors,

It is peaceful,

It is healing,

It is pure creation.

And as we release our breath we are releasing tension,

We are releasing negative emotions,

Fears,

Worries,

Sadness,

Remorse,

All of those nagging financial worries,

Worries about relationships,

We are releasing all of these on the exhalation of the breath and that release feels so good,

So cleansing.

And so as we inhale we bring in that pure beautiful white luminescent energy into our bodies and as we exhale release,

Those worries,

Those fears,

Those tensions,

Those stresses,

Inhale white source energy,

Exhale release,

Release.

We have not a care in the world now,

We lay in perfect harmony with source energy with the universe.

All is well,

All is calm.

Imagine each breath cleanses and heals and renews.

Each exhalation we are releasing stress,

Tension and worry.
