Hi,
My name is Jeremy.
Welcome to this meditation.
It's lovely to be here with you.
I'd like to invite you just to come and find a quiet,
Comfortable place where you won't be disturbed,
Either sitting or lying down in a position that feels natural to your body.
Closing down the eyes and take a deep breath in through your nose,
Filling your lungs completely.
Holding for a moment,
And then exhaling slowly through your mouth,
Releasing any tension.
Taking a few more breaths like this,
Nice deep inhale through your nose,
And a slow,
Smooth exhale out your mouth.
And as you continue to breathe,
Allow your body to relax with each exhale breath,
Feeling any tension just melting away from your shoulders,
Your jaw,
Your hands,
And your legs.
With every breath,
You are settling into a deep state of calm.
Now,
Just gently guiding your awareness to this moment,
Enjoying this moment of stillness,
Nowhere to go,
Nothing to do,
Simply just being here,
Present to your unfolding experience in the now.
If thoughts arise,
Acknowledge them without judgment,
And let them drift away like leaves floating down a gentle stream.
Imagining yourself standing at the edge of a beautiful river,
The water flows smoothly,
Carrying away anything in its path.
You reach into your heart and gently gather all the worries,
Fears,
And burdens you've been carrying.
Each one is a pebble in your hand,
Small,
Large,
Smooth,
Or rough.
Hold them for a moment and acknowledge their presence.
They have been a part of your journey,
But they do not define you.
Release each pebble into the river,
And watch as they sink below the surface,
Carried away by the gentle current.
Feel the weight lifting from your heart and your mind.
With each pebble you let go,
You create space for peace,
For lightness,
And for freedom.
Take a deep breath in,
And as you exhale,
Hear yourself becoming lighter,
Sensing the openness within you,
And the room for new energy,
New possibilities.
Notice how your body feels right now in this moment,
And more at ease in the warm golden light surrounding you,
A light of pure peace and pure love.
It flows into you with every breath,
Filling the spaces where tension once lived.
With each inhale,
It moves through your body,
Soothing and healing,
And with each exhale,
You release anything that no longer serves you.
Resting here in this warm globe of peace,
You are safe,
You are whole,
And allowing this session to settle into your body,
Heart,
And mind in its natural time,
Gently guiding your awareness back into the room,
Inviting some gentle movement into the body,
Maybe a little wiggle of fingertips and toes,
And taking a final deep breath in,
And exhaling with a soft smile,
Carrying this feeling of calm and presence with you into the rest of your day,
Knowing that peace is always within you,
Maybe fluttering open the eyes when you feel ready,
Embracing this renewed sense of tranquility and lightness,
And letting this peace guide you through your day.
