Hello and welcome.
I am so glad you are here.
Today we are going to return to source.
To come back to the innocence of being that is often clouded from thought and sensation in our experience of being human.
Yet just like a fish swimming in water,
Source is always present and we are always connected to it.
So let's close our eyes together and take a few long slow breaths to begin.
Take your meditation posture.
So bring your spine gently upright.
Might feel like a string is pulling gently on the top of your head.
With your feet resting gently underneath you or on the floor.
Relax your body.
Using the breath to release and let go of any tension you may be holding in your feet,
Your knees or your hips,
Your pelvis,
Your belly,
Shoulders.
Release and relax your eyes,
Your jaw and even your tongue.
And then let's come back to your intention why you are meditating.
To awaken and connect to source.
To quiet your mind and open your heart.
And as we begin,
I invite you to take the posture that there is nothing you need to know.
Knowledge or thinking will not bring you closer to source.
So gently let go of the idea that you need to know anything.
And then gently let go of thought.
And refocus your attention on awareness itself.
Just being.
And as thoughts arise in the mind,
That's perfectly fine and natural.
Just don't give them any attention.
As though they were background chatter at a restaurant or a language you didn't understand.
And return your attention to just being.
Like a movie playing on a screen.
Gently shift your attention from the movie to the screen.
From thought to awareness.
And then let yourself rest.
Resting back in being itself.
This is so natural.
Notice you don't need to do anything to be.
Being is already happening without your help.
Like muddy water settling in a glass.
To reveal the clear water that was always here.
When we give thoughts no attention and return our attention to being itself.
What's arising now?
You are never separate from source.
God,
The divine,
Whatever name you choose to call it.
Let its rays pierce through all the fog.
Peace,
Joy,
Happiness.
This is your true nature.
And with that,
We'll gently release the practice.
Gently open your eyes.
And I invite you to notice what has shifted through this practice.
And how might you carry this through your day?
Knowing that you can return to this recognition at any moment.
Thank you.
Namaste
