Greetings and welcome back to another guided meditation with me, Emma Salou. Today, This meditation is focused on my postpartum mamas. My fellow new mothers in this beautiful journey. I'd like to offer you some blessings for this journey and also a meditative space to connect with yourself. So please, I invite you to find a comfortable position, Sitting or lying down. And gently close your eyes. With whatever may be happening around you. I invite you to tune in to my voice. Allowing yourself. To fully drop in to this short meditation. And begin to notice your breathing. The rise and the fall of each breath. The natural ebb and flow of life. The waves of up and down. Of in and out. This body. That has served you so well. That has brought life to your child or your children. This body that you are blessed to call your home in this life. Bringing one hand to your heart. And one hand to your belly. The heart and the womb. Feeling the breath pass through these two spaces. Through your chest, All the way down into your belly. Honoring the heart space from which you give so much. Honoring the womb. From which you housed life. The space where you grew. And nourished your children inside your body. Despite anything that may be happening. In this moment. We can return. To the amazing miracle that life is. And the incredible power that you have to hold life. To nurture and to deliver life into this world. I'd like to offer you some blessings for wherever you are in your motherhood journey. That you may be able to open your heart. To tune in to your children. To love and be loved. To ask for help and receive help when you need it. To grow in ways that you have never imagined possible. To learn from the generations that came before you. And to one day pass on that knowledge. To find those small moments to take time for yourself. And to appreciate the chaos. That this chapter brings. To honor this season. And to be fully present. With this version of yourself. And with this version of your children. Knowing that it will not last forever. To allow yourself to feel fully. The emotions that you're going through. And to grieve. The versions of your child. That you may never meet again. While also looking forward. To the new versions that you will meet in the future. To hold space for this duality. And all the dualities that motherhood brings. I'm truly wishing you the best for your journey. I'm so grateful we got to spend this short time together today. I'd love to see you back here soon. But until then, Have a blessed day. With love, Emma Salew.
