Welcome in, Friends. My name is Tone. So today's meditation is called listening to what you need. And we'll work with the heart and the throat chakras. So feel free to get comfortable and we'll begin. So we'll start by taking an easy breath in through the nose. And gently letting it go. You may have been asking. What everyone else wants lately. But for these next few minutes. . . Turn that same curiosity towards yourself. What do you need? I want you to feel the support beneath you. We'll begin by bringing your awareness to the center of your chest. To your heart chakra. So imagining a soft green light here or light pink light. With every breath. It grows. And notice what feels stretched or overlooked in your life. No need for a perfect answer here. Just listening in as if you were a friend. And they were telling you how they feel. Opportunity here to ask yourself or tell yourself. I can listen to myself with kindness. I'll begin sending Reiki here now to the heart chakra. Take this time to receive. Now bring your attention to your throat. Our connection to our communication. Being ourselves and finding those. That love us for this. And imagine a soft blue light here. And take this time to try putting one need into a simple sentence. I need a break. I need more information. I would like some company. And notice what feels honest. I am allowed to name my needs. I'll continue sending Reiki here to the throat chakra, The center for expression. Feel free to rest and explore. Now turn your awareness to include both of these beautiful energy centers. What is one gentle way? You could acknowledge or communicate. Your need. And I'll continue sending Reiki to both chakras now. Start to bring your awareness back to your physical body, Noticing the support beneath you. Taking a moment here to wiggle your fingers and your toes to come back to your body. Softly blinking your eyes open when you're ready. And allow the reflection to settle and expand as you go through your day of what you need. Thank you so much for spending this time with me. Take care.
