Hello I'm Jessie Galvin.
Welcome to this New Year's Eve meditation.
Take a few moments to find a comfortable seated position and gently close down your eyes.
Take a few slow and deep breaths allowing every inhalation to fill you with the energy of the present moment and allow each exhalation to release any tension from your body.
As we approach the threshold of a new year let's take this time to reflect,
Release and set intentions for the coming year.
Begin by bringing your awareness to the year that is ending.
Reflect on the experiences,
The lessons and the growth that have unfolded.
Without judgment allow these memories to surface.
Acknowledge both the challenges and the joys that have shaped your journey over the last year.
As you take this time to reflect in your mind's eye see a glowing ball of light just in front of you.
This ball of light represents the energy of the past year.
Take a moment to infuse this ball of light with gratitude for all that you have experienced.
See it glowing brighter with each expression of gratitude.
Now I invite you to see a set of scales in your mind's eye on one side of the scales place the lessons,
The growth and the joyful moments of the last year.
On the other side place any challenges or difficulties that you have moved through as you place these on the scales.
Notice how the weight of the lessons tips the balance in favor of growth and resilience.
Take a moment here to see how far you have come to appreciate everything that you have walked yourself through and the person you now are sitting here in this now moment.
I now invite you to take a few deeper breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth.
As you exhale visualize a gentle breeze carrying away any residual energies of the past year.
Release them with love and gratitude knowing that they have served their unique purpose.
With each breath allow this release with love.
As you release the energies of the past year you make space for the new energy to enter your system.
Picture a blank canvas before you representing the coming year.
You are the artist of your own life and this canvas is ready to be painted with your dreams,
Your intentions and your aspirations.
Take a moment to connect with your heart center.
Allow your breath to move in and out through your heart.
What do you wish to cultivate in the coming year?
What intentions do you want to set?
Allow these visions to arise organically.
You may see them in your mind's eye,
Hear them as words or sense a feeling or emotion moving through your body.
The visions may be related to personal growth,
Your relationships,
Health or any other aspect of your life.
Now in your mind's eye paint these intentions onto your blank canvas.
See them vividly,
Feel the emotions they evoke within you and let the canvas come alive with the colors of your dreams.
With this picture held in your mind's eye gently repeat the following affirmation either quietly to yourself or out loud.
As I step into the new year I am open to growth,
Love and joy.
I embrace the opportunities that come my way and I trust in the unique unfolding of my journey.
May the coming year be filled with abundance,
Creativity and transformation.
I am present to my highest expansion and ascension.
Feel the power of these affirmations resonating within you.
Visualize them radiating out into the universe harnessing your magnetic energy.
Take a few moments to pause and breathe here connecting with this energy within you that you have cultivated to take into the coming year.
Gently place your hands over your heart and take a moment to express gratitude for the year that is coming to a close and for the one that is yet to begin.
Know that you have the power to shape your destiny and create a life that aligns with your highest expansion.
Take one more full breath here in through your nose and out through your mouth and when you're ready gently open your eyes.
Thank you for joining me for this new year's eve meditation.
May the coming year be filled with love growth and countless blessings and so it is.
