Welcome to this meditation to support you connecting into the moment and feeling the expansive magnetism of gratitude in your heart space.
This is a recording from a recent live song experience that I hosted on Insight Timer.
Hope that you enjoy it.
Inviting you to shut down your eyes now.
I like to have a hand on my chest and one on my lower belly.
Resting those eyes.
Allow your body to feel that it can drop into a space of rest.
Really inviting your awareness into this moment,
Fully into the here and now.
And in order to support yourself as you drop deeper,
As you arrive right here right now,
Can be supportive to give your mind something to do,
To practice focusing your awareness on something that is real in the physical world in this moment.
Particularly what is going on in your body.
Inviting you to begin noticing as you breathe,
The way your body moves.
Take a few slow and deep gentle breaths.
Just noticing.
How far can you feel that breath travel?
How many places in your body can you become aware of that are being asked to shift and move to accommodate the movement of your breath?
Can you feel it all the way down to your toes?
A gentle energetic vibration that happens as you breathe in and breathe out.
Noticing the relationship between your lungs and the heart.
Can you feel your heartbeat?
Welcoming you to your body and the idea that you can sense the oxygenated blood around your body and back to your heart.
Nourishing each cell fully and completely.
This dance that is ongoing with you and the world around you as you take a breath and offer up that fresh new air,
A new experience of the world coming into your body.
Being changed and touched by your energy and then gifted back.
Opening to receive,
Giving back,
Loving with gratitude,
And you invite in a sense of thankfulness into your heart.
It's being washed with this fresh new air.
The gratefulness too of letting go of the old.
It's all part of the cycle.
You can't have the new.
There's no space for the new unless you release the old first.
And allowing gratitude to grow in your heart.
And keeping it as simple as it needs to be to work for you to activate that vibrational energy that is gratitude.
Can you find gratitude,
Simply for being alive in this moment.
For having the opportunity to take one more breath,
And then another,
And then another.
Possibility from this moment is endless.
Life could head in so many directions,
Expanding and evolving.
Finding the peace in this moment.
Gratitude for your aliveness.
Opens you to ever more expansive opportunities of what may be possible in their life.
The invitation is to stay here.
Allowing the inward to find peace.
And trusting from this quiet is grateful,
Simply getting a chance to experience.
Peace to guide whatever North Star you choose to follow,
Allowing this to support you being discerning around what feels like a true way of showing up.
What feels in alignment with your essence.
This loving being is having a human experience on the planet.
Trusting from this place.
You can speak.
What is your truth.
Way that is loving and standing strong in what you believe in the vision,
Hold this planet.
On that inviting one last really deep breath,
You're in the expansiveness of the energy that you've just created.
And all of that gratitude vibration.
May like to begin by activating sense of hearing,
What can you hear my voice.
Any other sounds or hums from your home,
Wherever you are.
Notice if you can smell anything.
Notice if you can taste and taste.
Stop noticing what you can feel with your body,
What are you touching,
Feeling your feet on the floor.
Notice if you can feel your nose on your skin,
Glasses on your face,
Glasses like me.
Bringing the light back in and coming back into the room.
