Welcome to Relax and Reconnect.

Good morning my friends and thank you so much for allowing me the privilege of guiding you in this meditation.

I'm Jade and this is It's Our Nature.

I invite you now to let your eyes close as if you are drawing the shades on the outer world and inviting yourself into an inner world designed only of and by you.

Find yourself situated in a way where you can relax fully,

Whether seated or lying down.

Let your lungs be filled with air in an intentional way,

Letting them expand fully,

Perhaps holding at the top of the breath,

Letting it be a little longer than the inhale.

So one more breath in,

Holding at the top for a second or two or three and then with the exhale let it be long,

Sustained.

Feel your muscles letting go,

Especially the back,

The shoulders,

The neck,

All the way down the spine.

Now feeling your seat,

Feeling yourself in connection with whatever you are sitting on and allowing that connection to extend down into Earth.

You might viscerally feel this or you might feel it energetically through your imagination,

Allowing your imagination to work for you.

Maybe you see roots or a tail or cords or a lighted path that goes between your tailbone,

The tip of your spine there below your sacrum,

Reaching down.

Feeling yourself reaching for connection with Earth Mama and you might even perceive that she is reaching for you as well.

That somewhere in the reaching you are met by her force,

Her love,

Her power,

Her arms,

Her energy.

This is gravity and more than gravity.

It's a mutual allurement.

It's Eros in its purest form,

The attractant that invites us to be in relationship with Earth.

So just allow that connection to be held there.

Maybe it undulates,

Maybe it rises and falls,

Maybe the energy changes in quality over these moments.

It certainly does over our lifetime.

Letting that anchor be there,

Your awareness of this connection.

And bringing your attention right back up into your body,

Even as that connection stays secure.

Bringing your attention back to your breath for the moment.

I want to invite you to feel your feet now,

The soles of your feet.

Maybe they also are extending and connecting.

Your calves and knees,

Feeling the thick,

Strong muscles of your thighs coming up and inserting into the pelvic cradle,

This place of connection,

Creation,

Grounding.

Feeling all of the organs that abide in that cradle,

Feeling them vibrate with health,

The finest kind of vibration.

Barely able to feel it,

But they are moving with a kind of life hum.

All the way up through your belly you move now,

Through all the intestines and gut into your heart and lungs.

Take a few breaths now right into your heart as if the breath could come right through the ribs,

The skin,

Flesh,

Muscles,

Cells,

Right into the heart.

The exhaling through the heart as well,

Knowing that when the breath is in the interior of our bodies,

That it is working to balance,

Refresh,

Nourish,

Helping all of our cells and organs to be working in perfect order.

Working together in connection,

This outer world air coming inside to refresh another point of connection,

Another million points of connection here.

And notice if there are any points of tension or any places of ache in your body.

You can do the same practice where you imagine that the air is coming right into that place of pain,

Directly through the skin.

Maybe you want to direct it right into another organ like the kidneys or adrenals.

And with the inhale it goes right in there and there's a kind of relaxation that can happen with the exhale.

Remembering that we are not alone or disconnected but in fact linked to all things on this planet and beyond this planet.

And we can let go into that embrace,

Imagining that we are held,

Cared for,

Connected to,

Watched over,

Nourished by something far greater.

And now connecting again with this body,

Your body,

And feeling your whole spine,

The breathing of your spine from the top of your head through the skull down the spine with its rhythmic pulse all the way down through the sacrum to that tailbone where you are connected with Earth.

You might even imagine that that breath goes right up through all the vertebrae,

Through the spinal column as the cord does to the top of your head.

And imagine at the very top there an energy explodes out of your head like a crown.

You can imagine a kind of light exploding like a crown and there in the middle is a very tiny thread that goes out further.

It goes out and out and out and out into infinity connecting to something unnameable,

Something beyond us.

And with each breath you connect with what is above and beyond the head and the relaxation goes down the body and all the way down into Earth.

And then back up and out into the starry cosmos.

Remembering that we are connected with all things and that our intention here,

Our love and both our reception and the direction of our love,

Our sending out of our goodness are supremely important.

We are the pulse and we are the vessel that allows the pulse to move through us,

Both in time.

Feel now the curve of your ears,

Your cheekbones,

Where your jaw hinges down through the throat,

Feeling and seeing and imagining the richest cobalt blue coating your throat.

And like paint covering and extending down through your chest turning into a beautiful green,

Then into solar yellow,

Rustic orange as it enters your pelvis and then ruby red at your seat.

Vibrant lavender purple in the head and crown.

See it all now,

Allowing yourself to be all the colors of the rainbow.

From the rainbow letting the vibration of each color extend out into the natural world,

Like little feelers or antenna on a caterpillar that can extend into connection.

Let your yellow,

Your orange,

Your green and blue reach out and cloak what it finds with its energy and its love,

Its knowing of our oneness and our uniqueness.

That it is in our most unique way that we reach out in connection with all things and know that we are no different.

Allowing yourself to feel what it feels like to have all these connections.

Noticing whatever you notice.

Is there a gathering around you?

Are you seeing beings,

Human or more than human,

Plants,

Stones,

Elements,

Animals?

Who do you see?

Who do you perceive?

Maybe they are unnameable.

Notice your heart now in this kind of connection.

Remember that pulsing between the cosmos and the Gaia Mother Earth.

Completely connected,

Undeniably in relationship.

Notice the relaxation in your body and mind.

Notice the impulse of love in your heart.

As you feel how connected you are to one another,

Feel your strength rising.

Your willingness now as we begin to transition back into your day world life.

Notice the impulse that might be there to connect as you move into your world or head into your dreams.

We'll go further with this in future meditations,

But for now just notice the tracks.

The highways,

The light ways,

The ways in which we are inseparable,

Bonded.

And have so much to learn from one another,

So much to share and to heal.

Taking a few more breaths now,

Just energizing yourself.

If it feels right to pull in those antennas,

Please do so.

If not,

It's just fine to leave yourself connected.

This is the truth of our existence.

So just gathering your attention back to a center point in you,

Maybe in your heart or your gut.

And from this place beginning to feel the wiggle of a toe or two,

Or your fingers,

Your lips.

Feeling the weight of your skull and the way in which it can be lifted now.

Maybe there's a Thanksgiving that wants to be offered silently from your heart or verbally from your lips.

Getting ready to move into that outer world.

Whenever you are ready,

You can pull those shades called eyelids and allow the light of the room to enter you.

Just receiving.

When we open those receptor sites,

We automatically give and receive without effort.

You are so important here on this planet.

Unique and utterly genius.

It is your nature.

It is our nature.

Thank you for spending this time with me.

I do look forward to the next time.

Namaste.
