Hi.
Welcome everybody,
My name's Joan.
So this is a short Reiki transmission meditation.
For those moments when everything feels like a little too much.
Our day-to-day feels a little overwhelming and we're looking for a moment of calm for our nervous system.
Whenever you're ready.
Get comfortable,
And we'll begin.
So before you close your eyes,
Take a moment to look around the space you're in.
Nothing to figure out just yet.
Just let your eyes slowly move around the room.
Noticing the light around you.
The shapes.
Maybe notice a color that catches your attention.
And when you're ready.
Gently close your eyes.
And take a slow breath in.
And let it go.
Again,
Slow breath in.
And easy breath out.
Notice where your body is being supported right now.
The chair beneath you,
Or the bed,
Or even the floor.
Notice the weight of your body against that support.
Maybe even moving very quickly today.
Maybe your thoughts have been jumping from one thing to another.
Maybe even trying to take care of everyone and everything around you.
For the next few minutes.
You don't have to solve any of that.
We're just going to slow things down.
One breath at a time.
So bring your awareness down towards the base of your spine.
To your root chakra.
Our energetic center connected to grounding,
Stability,
Feeling supported.
And imagine a warm red light beginning to form here.
Take a slow breath in.
And as you breathe out,
Feel the weight of your body becoming a little heavier.
Notice your feet,
Your legs.
The places where your body meets whatever is beneath you.
Just noticing what's here energetically.
Take another breath in,
Making your exhale just a little longer.
And again,
In.
Slowly out.
If your mind starts moving toward everything you need to do later,
Gently come back to the feeling of your body being supported coming back to your breath.
Coming back to this moment.
And an invitation here.
To silently repeat to yourself.
I am here.
I am supported.
I can take this one moment at a time.
And allow Reiki to move gently through your root chakra.
Now.
Slowly bring your awareness up to the center of your chest to your heart chakra.
Imagining a soft green light beginning to form here.
Take a slow breath.
Notice if you've been asking a lot of yourself lately.
Maybe you've been pushing through every obstacle trying to keep up.
Trying to hold everything together.
And see just for a few moments if you can give yourself permission to soften a little.
Relax your shoulders and clench your jaw.
Soften the space around your eyes.
Take another slow breath.
Right now,
Just giving yourself a few minutes to come back to yourself.
I give my permission to slow down.
I can meet this moment with kindness.
I don't have to carry everything at once.
And feel the green light gently expanding through your chest.
Reiki continually flowing through your heart chakra.
Now notice the warm red light at your root.
And this soft green light at your heart.
So grounded energy below.
Softness through the center.
Take a slow breath in.
And longer breath out.
Can end.
And slowly out.
Just notice what has changed since we started.
Maybe you feel calmer.
Or simply feel a little more present.
Either of those is enough.
Slowly bring your awareness back to this room.
To your physical body,
To your breath.
Not a thing.
The surface beneath you.
Your hands,
Your feet.
Maybe gently moving your fingers and your toes.
When you're ready.
Slowly blinking your eyes open.
To take another moment to look around this room again.
So notice where you are.
Take one more final breath in.
And exhale.
As you move through the rest of your day.
Just remember that you don't have to handle everything all at once.
Come back to your breath,
Come back to your body.
Back to one thing at a time.
And we'll take one more collective breath together.
Inhaling into the nose.
Soft exhale.
Mm,
Beautiful.
Thank you for spending these few minutes with me today.
Take good care of yourself and be well.
