Many of us have moments of sadness, loss, loneliness, and despair. Often we escape this, distract ourselves, or berate ourselves for feeling them. It is time to honour these feelings as portals for release and healing and accept vulnerability. This practice will serve to help you during such times.

This is a guided meditation on vulnerability,

Sadness,

Loss,

Despair.

I believe that we should honor those moments and instead of distracting ourselves from the emotions,

Let's feel them.

Let's feel them at the depth of their existence.

Let's cry.

Let's feel sorrow.

Let's feel loss.

Namaste.

I'd like you to sit in a very quiet,

Comfortable position.

Wrap yourself with the heaviest weighted blanket that you can.

Even surround yourself with pillows.

I want you to feel cradled and comfortable.

Let's begin.

I feel sad and I'm not sure why.

Or possibly I do know why.

And I'm not sure what to do with this sadness or this hurt,

This anger,

Jealousy,

Envy,

Loss,

Discomfort,

Loneliness.

But I'm going to sit with it.

I'm going to feel it.

I'm going to embrace it.

I want you to visualize a younger version of who you are.

And I want you to take that younger version of who you are and place them right in front of you.

Place yourself right in front of you.

I want you to kneel down and look into the eyes of this younger version of who you are.

There's tears in those eyes.

I want you to embrace that younger version of who you are.

And hold,

Hold so tightly and feel the pain and cry with that younger version of you.

Everything is going to be okay.

I'm here for you.

It is okay to be vulnerable.

Release those emotions.

Release that fear.

Release that sadness.

Hello sadness.

Hello.

How are you?

You're not so good.

That's okay.

I embrace this weakness.

It is a release.

It needs to be honored.

I love you.

My heart chakra is wide open.

I surrender to the vulnerability and I allow it to be just as it is.

I will not analyze it.

I will not judge it.

I will just let it be.

It is okay to feel sad,

Hurt,

Jealousy,

Envy,

Loneliness.

I know it's temporary.

It may be a few hours,

A few days,

But as long as I honor that,

It does not have to last that long.

And even in the midst of my sadness,

My despair,

I can still have moments of happiness.

I can still enjoy my day.

I can still enjoy the people around me,

Even though I still feel lonely and lost.

It's okay.

This too shall pass.

When?

I cannot say.

I do not want to say.

I want to surrender to the vulnerability and honor this moment.

My soul is a survivor.

My spirit longs for happiness and love.

But I will not deny the essence of who I am.

And when I am sad,

That's okay.

It's okay.

Sit for a moment.

Embrace that younger version of you.

Cup your hands around the cheeks.

Look into those eyes and say,

It's okay.

You are loved.

I am here.

We will get through this together.

Namaste.

Thank you.
