Action To Rid Of Defects

This meditation, loosely based on the 7th step, is an invitation to imagine yourself working out of all those things you no longer need to carry throughout the day. These character defects may range from procrastination to anger, greed to berating oneself, anything that no longer serves us positively. As we visualize freeing these things one by one, we see them floating away and dissolving into the light of the day - a flyer disappearing into the vast realm of the spirit.

Transcript

Come to your seat.

Breathe in and breathe out.

Relax.

Feel yourself getting a little more comfortable.

Feel your muscles relaxing and a soft rise and fall of the belly as you slip a little deeper on your cushion to this state of feeling yourself in a room with a window in front of you.

A beautiful window with perfect little breeze outside.

As you're sitting there with yourself thinking about what you'd like to get rid of today.

Perhaps some impatience.

Perhaps envy.

Perhaps laziness.

Or perhaps procrastination.

You know what it is.

As you sit there thinking,

You feel your higher power there.

Your higher power magically writes these words out on transparent paper that you can see.

As you go through these light slips of paper,

Seeing all these things that no longer serve you,

You think,

I'd like to get rid of these.

Well,

You can just go over,

Open that window and take the first one out.

And just ask that higher power to just take this away.

See it float up in the breeze and disappear.

Well,

Take the next one.

Watch it just float away up into the sky and disappear.

Take another one of those and look at that and say,

I don't need this.

Take it,

Put it out the window.

Let it be taken out of your hands,

Up into the air,

Disappear.

Feel all those things slipping out of your hands,

Up into the air,

Disappear,

Getting free.

Oh,

You could hold on to them if you want,

But isn't it so much better just to let it go?

Let it go.

Let them all go.

As you breathe the sigh of relief,

Come back to your seat and sit down,

Relax,

Knowing that you feel a little lighter,

A little free.
