Let's begin by finding a posture that feels alert,
Wakeful,
Yet also comfortable,
Easeful.
Finding that balance between the two.
Begin with just coming to rest in the breath,
Whatever that feels like for you.
Might like to take a few extra deep breaths to support you in landing in the body,
Landing in this moment.
An opportunity now simply to welcome all of the feelings and sensations,
All of the emotions and thoughts and space here for it all to land,
For it all to roam freely in the wide field of this breath,
This energy,
This present moment.
Let the field take you,
Let the field receive you.
This field of energy,
This presence,
This divine presence that we already are,
That already connects,
Unites us.
This energy,
This aliveness,
Everything is included.
There is nothing that is not this energy.
There is nothing that is not included as this field,
This boundless field.
At times we may not feel like we have the space,
The capacity to feel what we're feeling,
To be with our thoughts,
And yet this space is here.
This boundless field is here always,
Ready to receive us just as we are,
Ready to welcome you with boundless patience,
This timeless embrace,
This immeasurable kindness,
This divine love.
And it's okay to feel lost,
Not sure.
There's always the breath to return to,
To come back to as a foundation,
Recognising that whatever you're feeling,
Whatever you're experiencing,
Pleasant or unpleasant,
Contracted or fluid,
Open,
It's all part of this soup of aliveness.
This alive beingness that breathes and feels and senses.
And there is a seamlessness to this sensing,
This sensory beingness,
A seamlessness that invites openness,
Inclusion,
Welcoming,
The boundlessness that offers the taste of freedom,
Of openness,
Of welcoming,
Of love.
Not a personal love,
Not a feeling love,
Not a sensation of love,
But a love that is beyond everything,
And thereby inclusive of everything.
A love that can't be contained,
That therefore contains all.
A love that can't be known,
A love that can't be known,
And yet is the fabric of all knowing.
All there is,
Is this love,
This divine,
Unfathomable love.
Everything is included.
Everything is shining as love.
Everything is humming,
Thrumming with this divine field of immeasurable inclusion,
This seamless,
Open embrace.
This warmly glowing is just this,
Just this,
Just as it is.
And it's this body too.
This body,
Not merely a physical body,
But also an energetic body,
A breath body,
A spacious,
Seamless,
Alive body.
It's these sensations that play out upon a continuum of dents and suffused.
You may find that the definitive boundary of this body remains elusive,
And yet the here-ness,
The such-ness,
The being-ness that is this body is very much here,
Very much alive,
And inclusive of however this body appears in this moment,
However this body is felt to be.
This body is welcome.
It's welcomed by this space,
This openness,
This seamless embrace,
This spacious breath,
This divine love.
An invitation now to invite some gentle movement between the fingers and toes,
And the soft muscles of the body,
And gently,
Consciously,
And gently,
Consciously,
Finding your way into a place,
A position,
A posture that feels more comfortable,
More easeful than you already are,
And really enjoying the fruits of this practice,
The joy and the ease that spending time in this way can help to create,
Opening with gratitude to the blessings that are available in this moment,
To the brightness and the beauty that you can taste,
Even if it's just a thimbleful,
Imbibing deeply,
Letting it soak deep into your being.
Imbibing deeply,
Letting it soak deep into your being.
Enjoy.
