Welcome to this moment my friend.

Choose your meditation posture based on what you need in this moment.

Maybe laying down or seated.

Find a place that feels grounding and comforting.

Maybe allow your eyes to gently close.

Feel your whole body soften and safely land right here.

Follow your breath in,

Follow your breath out.

Feel every cell in your body slow down.

Let there be a softness in your face,

Your jaw,

Your neck,

Your shoulders.

Let there be an ease and a gentle calm energy that washes over you.

My friend,

There is no timeline.

You are exactly where you need to be.

You are not behind.

Even though maybe your mind tries to convince you that you should be elsewhere or you should be farther along,

Trust that you are right where you need to be.

Release all the pressure.

Embrace the season that you are in.

Zaina Keithley writes,

You are not behind.

The time you've spent retreating has not been a waste.

The time you've spent in the slow down has not been in vain.

The time you've spent tending to your deepest wounds has not been thrown away.

Not a single step of this journey has been wasted,

Even if it feels like you've spent months moving nowhere at all.

The time you spend forsaking outward productivity for inner healing,

For nurturing your innermost self is some of the most important work you will ever do.

Allow yourself to move slowly through this season of stillness.

Take your time pouring into yourself the love and gentle care you need.

The world isn't going to pass you by as you journey inward.

Soon,

You'll look back and feel grateful you didn't rush through this season.

Soon,

You'll see,

While you were unraveling,

You were becoming.

While you were releasing,

You were making space.

While you were breathing,

You were blooming.

This was never wasted time.

All along,

You were exactly where you needed to be.

May this be a beautiful reminder for you to trust your growth,

To trust your becoming.

You are always growing.

You are always evolving.

Breathe in gently,

Exhale slowly.

If it feels right to you,

Place a hand or two over your heart.

Feel into your beating heart.

What is one thing you need to hear in this moment?

How can you remind yourself that you are not behind?

Notice now a shift in your heart,

In your awareness.

One more breath in,

Release.

Thank yourself for showing up,

For embracing where you are now.

Bring awareness back into the room you're in.

Maybe find a gentle wiggle,

Some movement.

Maybe rock your head side to side.

Go slowly now.

Keep remembering,

You are growing.

You are exactly where you need to be.

From my heart to yours.

Wow, perfectly timed for me. I’m so glad I came across this. I needed to hear these words because I have not been myself for the last three years since my brother died and I am trying so hard to find a place for myself in the world that just doesn’t make sense to me anymore. I’m slowly, but surely gaining my footing but some days I’m still struggling. I’m breaking old habits and patterns through therapy and meditation, and I’m so grateful for my journey. It’s going slowly, but it’s OK. Every day is a new day. Thank you Eileen, this is so appreciated.

This was such a beautifully articulated and touching practice for me! Thank you so much! 🙏

Wauuuuuw. Soo good. That music, is Angelic and heaven like. Fantastic!!

I just saw a billboard saying, “You are exactly where you need to be!” Then I listened to this and you said the same thing! I am so grateful for the double emphasis! Thanks for being a part of it!
