Hello,
Beautiful people.
It's Laura from the Fortune Wellness Collective.
I'm so glad you're here.
Thank you for joining me for this night sky visualization meditation.
Today's practice is specifically delightful for bedtime,
But can be used at any time during the day.
It's designed to help you soften and pause and reconnect with yourself.
Before we begin,
I invite you to just take a moment to get comfortable,
Allow yourself to settle into your space,
And maybe even offer yourself some appreciation for showing up for yourself today in this way.
And whenever you're ready,
Let's begin.
If it feels safe and comfortable for you.
I invite you to gently close your eyes.
We'll take some deep breaths to come into the body.
At your own pace,
Inhale through your nose,
Filling the lungs.
Pause briefly at the top of the breath.
And release the breath,
Exhaling slowly out of the mouth.
That's inhale through the nose,
Pause at the top of the breath.
And then exhale completely.
Inhale,
Pause,
And then exhale.
Allow your breath to return to the natural rhythm.
And bring your attention to the sensation of your body resting on the surface beneath you.
Feel gravity gently grounding you.
And allow your body to soften into the surface beneath you.
Taking the time to enjoy the weighty sensation.
And as you rest.
Allow the body to grow heavy and relaxed.
Settling in.
Feeling the grounding sensation as you rest.
Allow yourself to feel more supported with each breath.
Gravity continuing to ground you like a gentle hug into the surface beneath you.
Here in the present moment.
Imagine yourself somewhere in a peaceful place with a clear view of the night sky.
A place that's your very own.
Safe and quiet.
Where the stars seem to twinkle just for you.
Take your time and allow yourself to enjoy the peaceful serenity of this place.
The darkness feels calm.
And the night sky stretches endlessly above you.
The stars shine down on you from above.
The Earth gently grounds you as you peacefully observe your universe.
Shining just for you.
As you gaze up at the night sky,
Take the time to notice what do the stars look like?
Gazing up at the sky above.
Take the time to notice what stands out to you.
How are you feeling in this moment?
Just gently noticing what arises for you,
Not judging or changing anything.
Let your sky become a place of wonder.
A space where everything comes and goes at its own pace.
This is a place to simply be.
You As you continue to gaze at your universe,
Let the stars shining down on you bring you peace.
Allow each twinkle to be a reminder of possibility.
Let yourself enjoy a few more quiet moments,
Gazing at the sky from your peaceful place.
In preparing to leave,
Know that you can return to this place at any time.
When you are ready,
Bring your awareness back to the body,
Noticing the weighty sensation of your body on the surface beneath you.
Begin deepening your breath.
And slowly bring some gentle movement back into the body.
Maybe wiggling your fingers and toes.
Maybe gently rocking the body or head from side to side.
Rolling your wrists and ankles.
And eventually in your own time,
Blinking open your eyes and coming back to the space around you.
Thank you for joining me for this meditation today.
