Your Inner Elder (Saturn In Pisces Astro Nidra)
by Jana Roemer
The entire first half of this practice is dedicated to your Sankalpa to pattern it into your electromagnetic field. The second half is learning how to attune to the voice of your inner elder. This is based on the premise that once you're in alpha/theta brainwaves, the illusion of time drops away. In this case, you'll open communication between you and your Inner Elder. This is the future version of you who has already lived this moment now. Your Inner Elder has already overcome the challenge you're facing, lived out your gifts and talents, and succeeded in life. There are many ways you could live out this practice, it's up to you to decide what you want to bring into the practice. "The Cosmic Healer" composed by Music of Wisdom accompanies this Yoga Nidra practice.

Hello,
And welcome to this astronidra.
My name is Janna Romer,
And these are practices of self-love,
Where the ancient meets the quantum.
Lay yourself down on your back,
With your arms by your side,
Your legs stretched out long,
And your feet falling away from each other.
It can be nice to have something to cover your eyes,
As this practice is more powerful in the dark.
And then make sure that your eyes are closed.
As you begin to tap into your inner reality,
Begin to feel the waters of your body,
And the way that your fluid body interacts with your breath.
You can welcome a gentle rock in your body from left to right,
Almost like you're trying to soothe yourself with the back and forth.
This will help you to feel the waters of your body,
Especially at the moment that you decide to stop.
Notice how you can feel the waves of your fluid body moving from side to side,
Almost as an echo or a remembrance of the movement that once was.
And then slow your breath right down,
So that you can feel it move ever more deeply in through your body.
And as you do,
Spread your felt sense of awareness all the way through your body,
So that you can feel all of it,
With every breath.
And part of this action of spreading awareness throughout your body,
Is to pull your mind out of your head,
And awaken it throughout your body,
Through your whole entire system.
And enliven your ability to feel.
Your perception starts to experience your breath,
Not as a directional experience in through your nose and your lungs,
But as this expanding and contracting experience,
Where you feel,
With every inhale,
Every single cell finding space as it receives the breath.
And then every single cell releasing and exhaling and contracting as you breathe out.
Expanding and contracting.
And then along with that,
Imagine your inner world.
Every inhale as each cell grows with breath,
Every exhale as each cell contracts,
There's more space between,
With nothing but frequency.
So instead of attempting to find the space between the cells,
It's an overall feeling of emptiness and spaciousness,
And the void that exists at the end of an exhale.
Which leaves every single inhale an opportunity to reinvent in co-creation with the universe.
Allow your body to receive these words.
First of all,
Ask the breath to be effortless.
So you're not actively breathing your body anymore.
Your body is being breathed.
But in that effortlessness,
Somehow,
Your body also becomes more spacious.
Where there's an effortless experience of lingering empty that arises out of pure curiosity for what's there.
And as the pendulum swings into fullness on the inhale,
There's an equal linger in the fullness of inhale.
All effortless.
And as there becomes an effortless,
Slow,
And spacious breath,
Begin to find your way into the space between your lungs.
It might be easier at first to feel your right lung being breathed.
And then your left lung.
And then feel both lungs simultaneously breathing effortlessly.
And you may begin to notice between your lungs,
Left of center,
Is your heart beating.
And then drip down into that space behind your heart.
And linger there.
And as you linger in that space behind your heart,
Listen.
There is a communication network with your midbrain.
So spend a moment to feel these two spaces connecting.
The space behind your heart and your midbrain.
And please notice that the communication pattern is from the heart to the midbrain.
And now that the connection is established,
Go rest in that space behind your heart.
It's here we begin the practice of Yoga Nidra.
Begin to repeat your sankalpa,
Or your statement of intent,
Into this space with your whole heart and soul.
And as you repeat this intentional statement,
You can begin to feel the reverberation of this statement through your whole body.
And then feeling the space that you're in and echoing out to the universe this statement of embodiment,
Your sankalpa,
Stay in the feeling of the statement in your heart.
And begin to feel the reverberation of this all the way through the right side of your body,
From your head to your toe.
And it grows and is felt in the space within and all around the right side of your body.
And the space of the room that you're in to the right,
Whole right side.
And then return to the space behind your heart and begin to feel the whole left side of your body as you reverberate this statement all the way out into the universe through the left side of your body.
Feel the way it ripples from your heart to the left side of your body and the space within and all around.
The signal is so strong that it fills the room to the left and beyond.
And then return to the space behind your heart,
Still repeating your statement like a mantra,
The statement of embodiment,
The sankalpa,
The intention for your practice.
And feel your whole entire back body receiving the vibration,
The frequency,
The reverberation,
The ripple of this statement all the way in and around the back body and into the ground below you.
It's like you're telling the earth your statement by how it feels as truth in this moment in your body and you can feel her receiving it from you.
And stay with this statement as you come back into the center of your heart and the space behind your heart and continue to repeat your intention,
Your sankalpa,
As you begin to feel the whole front of your body from head to toe,
The space within you and all around you receiving the ripples of this statement.
It is reverberating into the space above and all the way out into the cosmos.
And for a moment,
Feel both above and below you through your back body and your front body,
The ripples of this statement,
This vow,
This proclamation,
And then feel it move both to the left and the right.
And allow yourself to feel into the expanse of this statement in all directions,
All directions,
Now.
Allow your awareness to become expansive beyond your body,
Beyond the room,
All the way out into the universe,
Echoing your statement.
And for as far as you expanded outward,
Now begin to contract inward,
Back into the space behind your heart,
While still having the expansive awareness,
But now it's inside of yourself so deeply,
So deeply.
And it's almost like this statement has become a diamond.
And you are the heart of this statement,
The diamond of this statement that echoes throughout the universe.
And the clarity of this statement being repeated within you is so pure that there is no room for anything but that.
You feel it.
You believe it.
You embody it.
And you are at the center of this transmission.
You are a transmitter.
You are casting the frequency of this statement in every direction with pure and utter clarity.
And then feel it coming alive right now in a whole new way as you are fully,
Deeply embodied all the way through the depths of your being,
All the way out into the universe.
The power of this statement,
This intention,
This sankalpa,
This vow of what you are becoming as if it is true right now.
And you go so deep within your heart and the space behind your heart.
Now the roots of your awareness will remain in this diamond,
In this space behind your heart.
And the statement remains the same.
And the anchor or the root of this statement of your awareness stays there.
Before we move on from this,
You begin to scan your field,
Everything that you are from the deepest place inside of you to the most expansive expression out into the universe for any little interference.
And anywhere you find interference,
You pattern through it,
This statement again.
So it's like you're coming through your field and sweeping through every layer of it,
Knitting this statement through every single layer so that nothing else remains.
You are laying the energetic structures for that which you are becoming so that you have the clearest potential of fully living that statement.
In the wellness world,
In the world of healing,
We often talk about sitting with your inner child.
Yet less spoken of is the potential for you to sit with your inner elder,
The future you,
The elder you that has already lived this whole life through.
And what if I told you that you could invite your inner elder into this experience here and now?
And since you've allowed yourself to be so incredibly spacious that you can receive the essence,
The wisdom,
And the experience of your inner elder,
Can you feel the wisdom of the elder you within you,
An integral part of you,
This timeless,
Wise soul that is you?
What would the elder version of you say to you right now?
How would they express their compassion and love to you?
The wisdom of the life that you've lived.
It's similar to how the you now would sit with your inner child except for it's your future self,
The elder in you holding you right now here in this moment with so much love,
Forgiveness,
Compassion.
And from that compassionate heart of the inner elder that is you,
What kind of wisdom would they drop into your field,
Into your awareness here and now to help you move through whatever it is that you are living right now?
Maybe it's to help you through a challenge or help you to bring through your dreams to life.
Whatever life is presenting you with right now,
What would the elder you have to say?
How could they support you?
How would they support you right now?
And can you feel the elder within you embracing you with love?
How does it feel to receive that kind of love from future self to present moment self?
From elder self to now self?
Can you let that kind of love in?
And what is the feeling of connectivity between the you now and the elder you that is constantly feeding you wisdom?
Can you allow that pathway of communication between you now and your wise inner elder?
Can you allow that pathway of communication to strengthen and to register how it feels right here and now?
To open this pathway so you can tap into it whenever you need.
What does it feel like,
This connection between you and the elder that lives inside of you?
You allow this to register so that as you are dreaming and as you are scheming and when you are lost and trying to be found or when you are looking for insight and creativity and wisdom and inspiration,
You have a direct line to the part of you that already knows.
Remember this feeling of connection,
The communication pathway between the present moment you and the elder you that's seen it all,
That's lived it all.
They already know how it's all going to unfold and can guide you to your highest expression in the here and now.
Maybe that voice within you has been your inner elder all along,
That quiet voice that guides that intuition,
That knowing maybe it's been your elder all along.
Notice how much more spacious your whole inner world has become and your sankalpa or your statement from the beginning gets to be repeated and echo through all of this space and time.
And you can feel where it is already true,
You are already whole,
You are already here.
It's already so.
And as that registers,
The practice of yoga nidra is now complete.
You get to move through this great expanse of time and space,
Of wisdom and inspiration and connection with your inner elder voice.
And back into your body,
And back into your breath.
And this elder wisdom is always a part of you that you can tap into at any time.
All you need to do is cast out the call and listen for the response.
And as you breathe a little deeper,
Slowly begin to awaken the self to the self and come back into the world of the 3D.
And you can bring little movements into your fingers and your toes and stretch your body with so much love and appreciation for all that you are.
And then eventually return to your seat,
Eyes closed.
And if there's any message or feeling or clarity that arose,
Take a moment with yourself and your relationship to that statement and how it may have transformed in the last 35 minutes.
And some of you may choose to stay here,
Eyes closed,
And marinate in this feeling.
And others of you may want to write down some insights into your journal.
Either way,
The practice is now complete.
Thank you so,
So much for coming to practice with me today.
I look forward to practicing with you again tomorrow.
Herium Tat Sat So much love.

Thank you so much for reminding me of my connection to the wisdom of my elder self. A few years ago I had met him, a grand-pa, full of love toward me. White hair, white beard and big blue eyes. I thought he was my ancestor but today you helped me realize he is me, my elder self. I am wanting to radiate fun, joy. To experience fun and joy every day of my life. It was great to create that diamond behind my heart in the shape of fun and joy. Thank you for co-creating this with me.
