Welcome everyone to Releasing Memories,
In my groups on Insight Timer I post words of the day,
Crystals of the week and herbs and so I've put them all together in a beautiful meditation for you.
So find your quiet space,
Your sacred cup of calm and if you have kiwi jasper or any jasper hold it in your hand or place it over your heart.
If you have rue,
A sprig maybe or a drop of her essence nearby and even an incense is perfect.
Her presence is strong even in the unseen.
So closing your eyes,
Let your breath fall into rhythm,
Soft deep effortlessness.
Inhale through the nose,
Exhale through the mouth.
Each breath is a wave returning you to the shore of your soul.
Visualize the earth beneath you,
Vast and nurturing.
A green gold light rises up from below,
Wrapping you in calm energy.
This is the whisper of kiwi jasper,
Gentle and steady.
You are safe,
You are grounded,
You are present.
Now let's call upon the herb rue,
It is the herb of grace.
See her as a shimmering green flame,
Alive and aware,
Surrounding you in protective light.
She hums softly,
Clearing away cords,
Thoughts and energies that no longer belong to you.
With every exhale she releases tension and old weight from your body.
With every inhale she fills you with clarity,
Courage and light.
Imagine her voice strong but kind.
You are protected,
Sovereign and whole.
She clears the path of all that is not yours,
So your spirit may rise unshadowed.
Let this energy sweep through you like a gentle storm.
Sense your aura expanding,
Glowing brighter,
Freer,
Your mind quieting and your heart softening.
You may notice memories beginning to surface now,
Shapes,
Faces,
Moments.
Do not reach for them,
Simply let them drift by like petals on a stream.
Now turn your awareness towards those memories,
Those tender places,
Those echoes of who you once were.
In front of you a soft light appears,
A glowing sphere filled with your soul's memories,
Each one a spark of experience,
Wisdom and emotion.
Say softly within yourself,
I honour my memories as sacred teachers.
I release the pain but keep the wisdom and let love remain.
Watch as the light grows brighter,
Old pain dissolves replaced by warmth.
You may feel a and rue ensures only healing energy stays.
Now see each memory floating upward into the light of your higher self becoming stars in the night sky,
Their lessons preserved,
Their heaviness gone.
Bring your awareness back to your heart,
A soft mint green light glows there,
The spirit of Kiwi Jasper,
Pure serenity and renewal.
The energy of rue circles around you like a golden halo,
A guardian of your new peace.
Breathe in this sacred union,
Protection,
Peace and remembering.
Feel how light you are,
How open,
How clear and whisper to yourself,
I release,
I remember with grace,
I rest in the arms of peace.
Slowly bring your awareness back to the room,
Wiggle your fingers and toes and when you are ready,
Slowly and softly open your eyes.
Carry this stillness with you throughout the day.
Your heart calm,
Your boundaries clear,
Your spirit free to shine.
