Hello,
My name is Jason Stevenson and welcome to this guided meditation that will help you to visualize your highest self as well as the dreams and goals of your highest intent.
As you listen to this meditation each night over the course of the next 28 days,
Profound inner shifts and changes will take place.
This meditation holds the power to change your life,
Helping you to establish new ideas and beliefs about who you really are.
So I invite you to open your heart to this journey as you move down the path towards your highest self.
Before we begin,
I invite you to silence all device notifications and set any morning alarms that are required.
Ensure that the blinds are drawn and that all other end of day activities are taken care of.
And bring yourself into a comfortable lying down position and allow your entire body to just let go and sink into the surface beneath you.
You might like to make any final movements or adjustments necessary to bring complete comfort to your physical body.
Take a few deep breaths in and out as you settle into this space.
I invite you now to quietly explore the silent space within by drawing your awareness to your breathing.
Follow its movement into the body and then back out.
As habitual thoughts begin to loosen their grip,
Just follow the simplicity of the breathing,
This energetic life force that functions continuously without your need to control it.
There is nothing you need to consciously do in order to breathe,
It is a force that effortlessly guides itself.
By drawing our attention to it,
We begin to refocus the mind on the present moment,
Using the breath as an anchor to draw us into the ever unfolding reality of right now.
Expand now your field of awareness by observing your connection to the physical world beneath you.
Witness the entire body being warmly held by the earth as you rest here in complete stillness.
As night falls,
The earth offers us a chance to release everything the day has required of us,
Inviting us to sink into a period of restoration and rejuvenation.
As you become aware of the environment through your sense of touch,
You begin to feel more deeply rooted and connected to this human life.
Allow yourself this moment of peace by feeling into the blessing and benefits of the setting sun and the stillness and stability of the earth beneath you in this very moment.
The moment we are born into this human form,
We begin to accumulate ideas about who we are and what we are capable of.
These ideas turn into beliefs which turn into actions that create our reality.
However,
The truth of the matter is that we are not whatever our thoughts have limited us to be.
When we start to unravel the complex web of stories we have told ourselves again and again,
We free up space for our truest and highest self to shine through.
If the mind attempts to analyze or rationalize your stories,
I invite you to gently let go of this mental action.
As you move into the heart space,
Old beliefs will naturally begin to unravel themselves,
Exposing what exists deep beneath the surface of who you think you are.
So,
Draw your breath into the heart now.
Each time limiting thoughts arise about who you are,
Where you have been,
Or where you are going,
Gently guide these notions down to the heart to be transformed.
As you witness them arising,
Silently repeat these thoughts.
I see you,
And I release you.
I see you,
And I release you.
I see you,
And I release you.
Each time you release preconceived notions about who you are,
You free up empty space for new life to emerge from.
Without seeding any new ideas just yet,
Take some time to simply revel in the silence and the emptiness of the world within,
And it's a soothing emptiness that grows more apparent as each limiting notion of who you are untangles itself from your core.
Draw your awareness to your stomach,
Noticing the way the breath causes your belly to rise and to fall on the breath out.
Alongside each full breath cycle,
Continue to ground yourself in this moment through the breath,
Allowing it to remind you of what is most real,
That is,
Your direct experience of this present moment.
Now,
As you breathe,
Focus your attention on the following words,
Helping you to deeply reaffirm the belief that you are far more than any limiting self notions,
And that you are capable of achieving your truest dreams and goals.
So alongside each breath,
Silently whisper to yourself,
I create my life from within.
I create my life from within.
I create my life from within.
Take a few moments of silence now to sink deeply into the truth of these words,
Repeating them softly and slowly.
Begin to notice your entire body becoming more relaxed,
And then draw your awareness to your toes.
Very slowly,
Begin to carry your attention upwards throughout the body,
And as you pass each area of your physical being,
Observe any areas where there may be lingering tension or tightness,
And silently whisper,
I see you,
And I release you,
To each area that requires your loving attention.
Once you have reached the top of your head,
Bring the entire physical body into your awareness,
The mind included.
Once again,
Quietly,
Compassionately,
And non-judgmentally repeat these words,
I see you,
And I release you,
I see you,
And I release you,
I see you,
And I release you.
A deep sense of lightness and freedom will begin to overcome you.
Just take a few deep breaths into this sensation,
Allowing it to run through your entire being.
Now,
With your highest self quietly radiating outwards,
I invite you to begin to consider what new version of yourself is waiting to emerge,
What dreams or goals are ready to be brought to fruition.
Take a few moments of silence here,
As you allow images and dreams to come to you,
There is no need to actively seek anything out,
There is also no riot or wrong ideas that might come to the surface,
Simply allow your heart to speak,
Allowing its purest and highest intent to come to your awareness through words and images.
Observe them as they arise,
Also becoming aware of any attempt the mind might make to intervene.
Refrain from making plans,
From assessing plausibility,
From arguing or judging what arises,
Just allow yourself to unconditionally explore whatever comes up for you.
Now begin to visualize yourself in a small stretch of open space in the middle of a forest.
Observe the wildlife that flourishes around you,
Observe the colors,
The textures,
The sounds and the aromas.
Open all of your senses to this space,
Feeling into the wild freedom of this natural landscape.
Standing firmly rooted into the earth,
You reach into your pocket and pull out three seeds.
Just take a moment to observe these seeds,
Noting how miraculous seeds really are.
These tiny nuggets of material hold the power and incredible potential to transform into something completely different than what they might appear to be in their present form.
And you too have seeds inside of you that are waiting to be planted.
So take a moment to bring to mind three intentions of your highest self,
Of your purest heart.
Consider the words and images that came to you in the silent and spacious void created after limiting thoughts and beliefs had been released.
What are your highest goals?
Who are you ready to become?
Now,
With the first intention in mind,
Silently whisper your vision to one of your seeds.
Take a moment to thoughtfully plant this intention into the seed,
And then as you bend down,
Dig a small hole with your bare hands.
Once you have prepared the soil for your first seed,
Place the seed in the space created and gently cover it up with the fertile earth.
Take a moment to bless this seed,
Offering it the energy it needs to blossom into full potential and then come to rest in silence once again in this opening in the forest.
Draw your second intention to mind and bestow it upon your second seed.
Crouching down once again,
Create a space in the earth for your seed to grow roots.
Plant the seed and then cover it with soil.
Offer this newly planted intention all of the love and support it will need to grow into fruition and then return to silent awareness of the enchanted forest you are in.
Finally,
Observe the third seed resting in the palm of your hand and whisper your third and final intention or dream to it.
Breathe through the heart as you bless this seed with unconditional love and then,
As you did for the rest,
Dig a small hole in the earth and then plant your seed.
As you cover the hole up with rich soil,
Observe a lightness coming over your entire being.
Your dreams have now been seeded.
So take a few final moments to send positive vibrations to the earth and the seeds that are planted there knowing that change is happening in this very moment.
Witness the body relaxing and the breath deepening as a subtle transformation frees you of whatever once held you back.
Now,
Gently release the image of yourself in this fertile forest knowing that you will come back here again and again.
Night after night to plant these energetic seeds of your highest intention.
Keep these intentions in mind for replanting but also allow flexibility in your intentions.
As complex human beings,
We are multifaceted creatures with numerous ways of expressing ourselves and of living our lives.
The ways in which you can live wholeheartedly are boundless.
The possibilities are infinite.
Return to your breath,
Allowing its steady and subtle rhythm to carry you into a state of deep relaxation.
There is nothing left for you to do,
Nothing for you to visualize.
So allow all thoughts to melt away.
Surrender your dreams to the world around you knowing that the universe has already heard your calls.
Your highest self is in the making and as you come into sleep transformation will continue to unfold.
Focus your attention on your breath as you fall asleep or you may alternatively choose to reaffirm the truth that the power to recreate yourself and your life exists inside of you.
Quietly repeat,
I create my life from within.
I create my life from within.
I create my life from within.
Surrender to the universe's mysterious process and wisdom knowing that you are unconditionally supported,
Loved and held in this very moment.
A new you is being birthed right now.
And until next time,
Goodnight my friend,
Goodnight.
