Hello dear ones and welcome to this couples meditation.
Today's practice is with your partner,
The one you have chosen in your life and the one who has chosen you.
Finding yourselves in a comfortable position on the bed or the floor.
Facing your partner,
We'll be lying down opposite with head to feet.
Snug in so that you'll be able to reach your right hand on your partner's heart space.
Your heart space is located on your chest plate just above your diaphragm.
And before we rest our hands here,
Let's just take a moment and begin with one deep inhalation through the nose.
Expanding your stomach like a balloon,
Bringing in the breath to begin to clear out any negativity.
And exhale through the mouth.
Let's take one more deep inhale through the nose.
Filling up and let the air fall from your mouth,
Perhaps with a sigh.
Placing your right hand on one another's heart space.
And you may place your left hand on top of your chest or wherever it feels most convenient.
As you lie here with your hand on your partner's heart,
Begin to slow your breathing down.
Some call this ninja breathing.
You want your breath to be so soft that it makes absolutely no sound.
These are long,
Slow,
Deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth.
A sense of calmness should be flowing through you.
At this point,
You're slowing down your breath so that the only thing you may hear or feel is the heart.
As you're lying here,
Taking your very slow,
Deep,
Quiet breath,
Begin to notice the beating of your partner's heart against your palm.
Perhaps a sense of peace has come over you and you can feel the weight of your partner's palm on your chest.
Begin to imagine your partner's palm coating your chest.
It begins to spread through your body.
Imagine this beautiful gold blanket begins moving and coating your chest,
Up through your neck,
Covering your head,
Hair.
Imagine the blanket of gold overflowing from your heart,
Down your abdomen,
Through your hips,
Down your legs,
Coating this beautiful,
Shining gold blanket,
Committing to trust in your partner's heart right now with the gold.
This golden blanket you carry in just the palm of your hand can create this.
This is your partner.
This is the one that chose you.
Be there for one another,
Holding this blanket of love and trust.
As you continue your slow breath,
Imagining your partner dripping in the blanket of golden love you just poured over their heart and through their entire body with just the palm of your hand.
I invite you to put a soft smile on your face.
Remember this feeling of love and security coming from your partner.
As you are feeling this love,
You can begin to wiggle your toes,
Wiggle your fingers with small taps on your partner's heart center.
Come back now to the space slowly.
And slowly sit up and embrace your partner.
Let out any emotions that may come up.
Hold my heart in the other's vulnerability.
You just created an open invitation to receive the love from one another.
Receive the love you each deserve and the respect for each other.
Thank you for joining me for this special couples meditation.
I hope that this brings you joy and love.
May you continue to honor each other and be well.
Thank you.
Namaste.
