Hello,
Now that you're close to starting a new year,
I want to invite you to ponder on several things.
The beginning of a year can be perceived as a new stage in life,
A clean slate,
Or simply realize what day of the week it is.
Regardless of how you look at it,
I consider it a good time to think about what has happened in your life these last 12 months,
Which of your plans have come to fruition,
What things are moving forward,
And also what has not happened yet.
In this meditation,
I want to help you prepare so that your next steps are firm,
That you let go of the weight that you no longer need to carry,
And that you open your arms,
Heart,
And mind to a time in which you can begin to live your life intentionally,
Having the control in your hands,
And follow the path that will lead you to manifest your dreams.
Close your eyes and try breathing slowly and deeply throughout this meditation.
Let's start with the things that hurt you and have already passed,
Those experiences that cause you pain,
Frustration,
Impatience,
And that most likely are still affecting you.
Take a moment to identify them.
Since all that has already happened,
Take a deep breath and realize that you are no longer living those days.
Having felt bad at those moments perhaps was inevitable,
But now you don't need to continue feeling that way.
The suffering,
Once that initial pain passed,
Is optional.
As long as you keep looking at the past and relive that experience,
You will only feed a feeling that you don't need.
I understand that there are some situations that will take time to heal,
And for these,
Just think that eventually you will feel better,
And also you will be able to look back with another perspective.
Now,
Look at everything that you would like to stop dragging,
That weight that doesn't let you walk freely.
Think about it for a moment.
Keep breathing deeply and feel how that weight moves away from you.
It is no longer on your shoulders or wrapped between your hands.
It slides like sand that falls to the ground away from you,
And as you breathe,
A gentle breeze is taking it all away.
You feel as if you were floating,
Your neck,
Shoulders and head feel light,
Your legs are stronger,
And you feel that you could walk for hours without any fatigue.
It is time to look at the things that are still a work in progress.
What you wish was different,
Or would have already ended.
Keep breathing deeply.
Everything is temporary,
And eventually this will pass too.
Now,
As you listen to my voice,
Realize that in this moment you don't have to do anything.
The time will come to take action,
And if there's something you must do,
The inspiration,
Wisdom and strength to act will come.
Relax in knowing that now nothing is necessary,
That you have these minutes of peace.
The world will continue to go around as it has been doing for thousands of years.
Life continues,
And you can give yourself the gift of taking a break.
Everything will continue where you left off.
There is no rush to return to any activity,
Nor need to fix the world.
The secret to change all those things that we just thought about is gratitude.
While you continue to breathe calmly,
Make a list in your mind of all the blessings that you have,
People you love and appreciate you back,
The food that you eat,
The clothes you wear.
The rest are luxuries,
And although there is nothing wrong with them,
They are not necessary to sustain life.
You already have the most valuable.
Find the silver lining in what you don't like by being able to use that point of view.
You can transform everything around you,
Since gratitude will open the doors to many blessings.
And now comes the best part.
Think about your greatest wishes and all the plans and projects that you have.
Put your hands together as if you were holding water between them,
And put in that space all your wishes.
Feel how the heat that comes out of your palms envelops them,
Fills them with energy.
Now you are presenting them to the universe,
Showing those dreams that you are so excited to live.
And feel how,
While you are breathing calmly,
The warmth in your palms is increasing,
Because the energy of the universe is joining yours,
And it is embracing all those plans and wishes to make them come true.
Think for the help you will receive for their manifestation,
And trust that they will come into your life.
Bring your palms to your chest in front of your heart,
And thank one last time for this help.
Feel the warmth of both energies enter your chest,
Spreading through your whole body.
Breathe deeply once more,
And open your eyes.
Thank you for sharing this time with me.
I invite you to follow me here on Inside Timer,
So that you know when I have new meditations,
Audios and courses.
Give many blessings,
And Happy New Year!
