A meditation to connect to your higher self In preparation,
I ask you to relax and settle down This can be seated or lying And it's important that you're not disturbed during this practice Let's begin with the breath I invite you just to focus on your breath,
Whatever that means But just become aware of the flow of your breath now Don't try and change it,
Don't worry if it's right or wrong It's perfect just as it is We're simply looking to slow down As your breath flows,
Become conscious of the space that you have chosen for this meditation You have set an intent to be well,
To take care of yourself now Can you sense this in the space around you?
A softness It supports you,
A tranquility Just be with that for a few seconds in silence,
The space and your breath I now ask you to visualize that you're standing at the beginning of a path Your simple path through life Only good can come from your connection with this path and this journey Take a moment to look around,
To take in your surroundings What do you see?
Now feel your feet on the floor,
Your connection to your simple path It may help in this moment now to actually move your feet slightly and really connect As if you're standing on the path And knowing that only good can come from your connection with this meditation Let's begin to take steps along your path Sense now as you move slowly but purposefully along Each step moving you closer to who you really are Liberating you,
Healing Keep walking,
Keep taking that step Now let's pause for a moment before we continue I'd like you just to check in on your breathing Calm,
Relaxed,
Comfortable Just in front of you a few paces on you can see a veil This veil may be material,
Mist,
Fog Perhaps you can see something else and whatever there is,
Is perfect for you Emanating from beyond the veil is a gentle warm light It's as if you already know this place You can sense a connection already But before we step through,
There is something that needs to be done As you stand on your path,
You're carrying a bag You can sense the weight of the contents Within the bag is life Your life up until this point Within the bag is how society believes you should live your life The expectations and opinions of others and it all adds to the weight Within the bag are your own limiting beliefs Again,
Adding to the weight But you see,
None of this exists beyond the veil So before we move forward,
Let's take the bag off and lay it down Sense as you move your shoulders,
As you feel an ease and a lightness As you look down,
You can see the bag Now let's move forward Let's go beyond the veil,
Step by step As you move through,
You can now really sense this light,
This warmth Against your body,
Your face,
Your hair Just pause for a moment Sense the serenity here The tranquility The healing nature of this place Let's take a few steps along the path,
Now beyond the veil Breathing easily and gently,
Knowing that only good can come from you being here Just in front of you to your left or to your right is a resting place This may be a bench,
A blanket,
Grass,
Again whatever you can see is perfect for you This is your own special sanctuary It looks out to an amazing view Let's settle down and rest,
Make yourself comfortable as you look out to the view Now let's take about 20 seconds or so in silence Have no expectations,
But just breathe in this space,
This light Allow yourself to be here Allow me to remind you that there are no limitations here We left those in the bag on the path So without your story,
Without the weight and the expectations and the limitations Who does that leave?
Let's ask a question of this space Let's ask a question out to the view Who am I?
Who am I?
Who am I?
My experience of spending time beyond the veil tells me that answers will come Sometimes they drift in on the breeze immediately Sometimes subtly after we have finished the meditation But if we ask questions here,
If we seek support and guidance We are heard and it is answered So with this in mind,
I invite you to ask your own personal question Or seek guidance at this time And again we will leave some silence for the answer to settle And so it is It's now time to leave your own special sanctuary Knowing that you can return at any time to seek guidance,
Support or to simply rest So visualize now as you stand Perhaps you wish to bow out to the view in appreciation and gratitude And then turn and return back through the veil onto the path Before we continue our journey,
I ask you to look down at the bag that you set there before Full of limitations,
Opinions and weight Leave it there,
It's not yours to carry Perhaps it never was Let's keep walking step by step back down the path Until you return back to the space that you are now in And in your own time,
Open your eyes
