Welcome to the Winter Solstice Meditation.
Take a moment to relax,
To make yourself comfortable and to ensure you will not be disturbed.
Gently begin to relax the body.
Take a deep breath in and with every out breath relax a little deeper,
Letting go of any stress or tension.
Breathe in,
Breathe out and relax.
Gently close your eyes as you begin to focus on the words I am about to say.
The Winter Solstice is a time of reflection,
A time to review your year,
Your year of learning and growing.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
All of nature is still,
Bare and barren after the autumn and its decay.
And yet,
In the cool air and the dark crispness of the winter eve,
All is warm in the womb of the earth.
All is manifesting in the unseen universe.
All of the elements and stars are conspiring.
To bring to you your highest vision when you believe it so.
So take a moment to reflect upon your year.
Give thanks for the gifts that you have received and the learning that has advanced you,
Evolved you and given you the right to walk your wisdom.
The Winter Solstice is a time to go inwards,
Into retreat,
To discover so much more about what is in store for you.
Breathe in and breathe out and relax a little deeper.
As you focus behind the eyelids,
Expand the mind screen,
Open the creative imagination and take yourself out onto a beautiful winter landscape.
Be in the heart of nature.
Take a moment to look all around you.
Change is all around you.
Place your attention onto your feet.
And as you do this,
Make a deeper connection to the earth.
The earth who empowers you.
Seeds you with knowledge just through being in nature.
What you set now,
Shall grow as the seasons change.
As the sun shines once more,
And spring sees a return of life force energy.
Breathe in and breathe out.
Bring to the forefront of your attention all that you are planting,
Growing.
What is the next level of life's journey for you?
What is important to you?
Breathe in and breathe out.
Allow these thoughts and feelings to flow out from you into the air,
Into the earth,
Into the sky.
Take a moment to reflect on your beliefs,
On your faith.
And maybe increase the amount of trust you have in yourself.
And the infinite source of wisdom that is always guiding you.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
This is the season of rest,
Renewal and resurrection.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
In your ability to retreat,
To go within.
To truly know.
And to be clear about your manifestation and the direction you desire to walk in.
Let this inner work be your focus so you can flow with life and enjoy the season and all its gifts.
For what cannot be seen is still growing.
All that you desire to create and change is always here for you.
This is the season of taking no action at all.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
For your inner being knows.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
The spirit of your humanness holds your potential.
In your ability to connect with yourself.
You advance,
You discover,
You uncover.
In stillness,
Silence.
In a safe space.
Devoid of others.
You gift yourself the ability of returning.
To a way that connects you to the natural cycles and rhythms of nature.
For this is where your power and potential to be healthy,
Whole and complete lies.
Breathe in and breathe out.
As the wheel of the year turns once more,
Place out your appreciation for life.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
Gently bring your focus back to the room where you are resting.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
Take a stretch and know you are safe to proceed from here.
