In this meditation, we open our hearts to deep gratitude for being present at this extraordinary time of transformation. Together, we pause and rest in awareness, honouring the magnitude and beauty of the shift unfolding. As we attune to this moment, we recognise the potential for a new beginning—one that embraces all life: the Earth, the plants, the creatures, the waters, the air, the rocks, and the crystals. May this sacred space awaken our sense of connection and hope for what is being born.

All right my beautiful,

Here comes our bell,

Take a deep breath in,

Long slow out breath again,

Just breathe it out,

Release,

Release,

Let it go.

We feel that connection with the breath from now on whenever we want to do a quick reset.

This is the way we do it,

So we're going to move quickly through each of those levels,

In through the nostrils,

Left and right,

Moving to a single point above the nose,

As it comes to the single point,

A third eye,

Allow your eyes to look towards that single point in the center,

Then with your eyelids closed,

Look back towards the pineal chakra,

Pressure point on your palate with your tongue,

And with the next few in-breaths do all of that,

Connect the guiding light rod from the crown all the way down to the earth,

And open your heart to the expansion of love.

See the ripple opening around you,

Feel that now as you take these beautiful breaths into your being,

And as we breathe in each time,

We ask that we can welcome into this life all that which is for our most divine,

Most sacred life journey,

Only that are we willing to bring into our being,

Into our awareness,

And this life experience.

There is no more time for the dithering around stuff,

So only that which is serving us in the most delightful,

Incredible way,

That's going to bring more unfolding in the perfect direction for our life,

Our journey,

Only that.

We set it up with every in-breath.

Imagine that you're coding this idea and the thought,

This requirement in your being,

And each time you breathe out that long,

Slow out-breath,

Calming,

Soothing along the vagus nerve,

Sending a signal to the mind and the body that I'm releasing,

Letting go,

Eliminating all that which no longer serves me.

We're so grateful that we can let go of all the patterns,

The stories,

Every little disruption that has ever occurred in our awareness,

In our line,

That we can now be at this point where we can say we've done that work,

There are no more patterns and signals flaring up,

And we ask that this can be our new default setting point.

So imagine now in your mind's eye that you can see yourself on a particular road,

In a particular place,

Be a pathway perhaps,

And imagine that the pathway now meanders off in another direction,

Not the familiar direction.

And you come to the pause,

The point where it splits,

And give yourself a moment just to be there,

Feel the honoring of the journey,

And at the same time,

Feel a deep,

Loving connection to the assurance that we've gained because we have tread,

We've walked upon a journey that has been familiar and understood.

It's been familiar to us for a very long time.

So if we take the journey that we know,

We know what it is that we will feel and see here and connect to,

We know what will come towards us,

We have a certain amount of reliance,

Dependence upon that structure that helps us to feel safe,

Predictable.

But we pause here because there is another route that has opened up for us.

We see this pathway not quite as well worn as the one before,

The one that we would normally walk upon.

We imagine that we can stand here now and feel like,

Oh my gosh,

Everything I needed to know,

See,

Hear,

Feel or experience.

I've got all that information from the journeys that I've had before,

From every story,

From every level of awareness.

We see ourselves having accumulated an immense amount of data.

We're so grateful.

So we stand here in the moment and we pause a while.

We ask our being,

So what is it that you want?

Do you want predictable and safe and the same?

Do you need to feel safe a little bit longer in that structure?

Or is it possible now at this point to take a new step in a new direction,

To embrace something different?

So we stand at this point and we check in with ourself.

We would like to think that we're always brave enough and courageous enough to take the new route,

But it's not always so.

And our mind,

Our body will indicate this to us.

Are you ready or are you not ready?

Either way,

It doesn't really matter except that what we do is in our absolute authentic light energy aware being.

And if we are to wait and pause here a little while longer,

We can do that knowing that the pathways are always going to be there and that they are not just two,

They are many pathways.

We have this idea that we are the ones that are standing in a column of the light as we're standing here now.

And the light can be transmitted through us in the direction that we seek and wish to go.

Like a flashlight in a dark night held at our solar plexus.

When we choose a route,

That light path opens up ahead of us and illuminates the way and gives us courage and strength,

Confidence and a sense of safety because the path is being lit up.

And the light is not coming from anywhere else but from you holding the light because you are the holder of the light.

We give ourselves the confidence of knowing that and the deep assurance that there is no wrong or right in this world.

There's no better or worse.

Everything just is.

What we really always want to be is in accordance with the divine will.

We want to be sure that what we are choosing is not out of some sense of fear or predictability or safety or neediness or out of some kind of coercion.

That what we're choosing is us in our sovereign,

Free,

Divine,

Activating our free will to choose,

To decide,

To discern.

So find that place in you now where you can just be at pause just for a moment and honor that you know so much now.

Honor this life that has given you all that wisdom.

Think how much you've experienced already,

How much more there's going to be.

It's so wonderful and you're still here even though there have been times that have been so hard,

So painful and sad.

You're still here.

Your life,

Your being,

Your wisdom is richer for every experience.

We thank this being for being so brave and courageous,

Determined and stubborn,

Being able to hold itself in every situation we have ever found ourselves in.

Rest here in that.

Feel yourself as a complete and beautiful being,

Clear,

Aligned,

Loved,

Adored,

Fully equipped,

Divinely and uniquely encoded for the very next step.

So you look at the paths and you make a choice or you choose to just stand still a little while longer.

Maybe there is even another pathway,

But if we're not in haste,

We can find the perfect way to hold ourselves wherever we are.

Find the perfect way for you right now.

What feels clear,

Light and lovely?

What feels kind to you?

And so we seek the kindness,

What is considerate and gentle,

Kind,

Gracious and loving to me.

How can I hold a space now to move or not move?

To choose something new or not?

How can I hold the space that is everything and is nothing?

That is not a space,

It's not new,

It's not anything until I take a step into it.

And while I wait in this place of pause and reflection,

There is a great understanding that I am awaiting.

And feel what that feels like just to be at rest in the pausing.

Soften your whole body into it.

This is not a defined space at all.

We are simply holding ourselves here and we are waiting.

Let your whole body come into a deep sense of peace and comfort,

That the waiting has no impatience in it at all.

Right behind,

Inside of that feeling,

There is a deep knowing that it will come to pass in the perfect way.

What you are to bring into your life now will be exactly what you need to bring in,

What you're being guided to bring in.

You breathe and you relax into it.

No pressure,

No story.

As far as you can see and feel,

Imagine it as an empty space,

Completely devoid of structure,

Stories,

Requirements,

Anything at all that might tether our body to it.

No conditions,

No games,

Just a space.

We know the space when we see ourselves doing something in life,

Doing a journey,

And we particularly see this in children while their brains are growing,

Where suddenly they stop what they're doing and they gaze off into the distance a little while.

It's right there that all those little synapses in the brain are firing so rapidly.

They're starting to calibrate at an incredible speed,

Assimilating,

Integrating,

And connecting.

There is a rewiring that is happening at that point,

That if we interrupt it,

We interrupt the flow of that intelligence stream.

And we have got to find our way back into that point of being.

It's creating those moments when we gaze off,

We look into all the directions and none of them,

Where we feel the space we're in and none of the spaces around us.

It is here and there and nowhere.

Imagine that you can get that glazed,

Dazed feeling around you now.

It's a timeless space.

No pressure,

No story.

Ask this entire being to find incredible comfort,

Wellness,

And alignment in this.

As if the soothing,

Healing balm of pure light and love is pouring into you now.

And you can simply receive all of this washing through you,

Bathing,

Cleansing,

Clearing,

Healing,

Releasing,

As it's bathing,

Washing through you,

Like standing in a shower of light.

More and more of this beautiful light pours into you.

Because we're standing in a place,

Accepting it and receiving it,

We find ourselves starting to glow in that light.

See that you are being bathed and you are glowing from deep within.

Deep within this beautiful light energy.

And whatever it is that we thought we should or must have to do,

All that is gone.

There's just this peace with self,

With this life and this journey.

A peace with all that is,

The oneness.

No story,

No attachment,

No drama,

Just deep quietness.

This energy is deeply anchoring,

Connecting.

It radiates a message down into the earth,

To the soles of your feet,

To the base of your spine.

That this life and this earth is supporting me and holding me in the most incredible way.

We can feel ourselves breathing and there's no effort or requirement.

We can feel ourselves being held,

Loved and heart is beating.

The breath of life is flowing into this being.

There is no performance,

No story,

No game.

It's a no-thing-nothing space with everything happening inside of it.

A reconnection,

A recalibration.

So we bring our awareness to our throat.

We feel the energy here,

The truth,

The absolute truth.

When you can use this energy,

This energy of deep truth and claim the space that you're in right now,

Hold your energy,

Your integrity there.

Claim it,

Mark it in your mind,

Mark it with your mind,

Body and soul.

Impress,

Imprint,

Encode a signal right through the soles of your feet.

That this is a space and a place.

We're placing a stamp upon it.

This is the point from which we now travel.

That every single moment,

Every single breath and every step,

Beat of your heart from now on,

That the pathways that you will create and the journeys that will come towards you,

That they are for your highest best,

Your most successful,

Abundant,

Prosperous,

Delightful in every way energy field.

That you start to create and amplify in a whole and a new way.

We mark this as the point of the new beginning.

And everything that has been part of our history,

Our story of gaining knowledge and insight,

Everything is lovingly held in the embrace of our heart and our mind.

But it no longer informs this form.

There is no data that we have gained from all the stuff of struggling,

Surviving,

The hardships and the enduring.

There's nothing that we need going further.

Going forward now,

We simply go with a clean and open space.

We have no idea what that's going to be and what it's going to look like.

But we know it's going to have a whole new tone,

An energy of great delight,

Something different,

Something magnificent,

Something that we cannot even yet fathom.

We have got nothing to hook onto it,

To know.

To know it,

To even have an expectation of any kind.

There is nothing.

This is all brand new.

How delightful is that?

So you hold that space there and just relax.

Breathe and soften your whole body,

Smooth the skin on your beautiful face.

Feel the balance of your body in the left and the right.

We open our heart to immense gratitude,

So grateful that we could be the ones standing here at this time when humanity is about to create its greatest shift.

And we stand in the place of pause and rest to consider how enormous,

How beautiful this next step and what it can mean to all life,

To this earth,

To the plants and the creatures,

The air and the seas,

The rocks and the crystals,

To every form of life.

That this could be a whole and new beginning.

We have inside of this space,

This open,

Complete,

Clear,

Delightful space.

We have the sense of this gratitude,

Forgiveness,

Kindness,

Love,

Anticipation.

And we're just going to watch it grow like a seed that's going into the ground in its own time.

It's just going to grow.

No urgency,

No pushing,

Just allowing,

Trusting.

So it is like that.

Beautiful you.

When we find ourselves with our whole energy in alignment,

We find ourselves ready.

We don't know what we're ready for.

But we do know that we're here for something.

May that hold itself in your heart in the most beautiful way,

Like a gentle murmur,

Gentle whisper.

It says it's coming any minute now.

Just keep your eyes open,

Keep your heart open.

Things are coming,

Things are changing.

And we keep looking out for all the goodness that is going to come,

Opening up that pathway.

So lovely.

As you hold this now,

Let yourself be in that space for as long as you can and carry it with you.

See if you can make a mind-body connection to this impression,

This point of awareness.

Sometimes I like to use those two little points that Donna Eden was reminding us about that connect to your central meridian.

And we can take the middle finger of our left hand and pop it into our belly button.

And the middle finger of our right hand and put it into that little fold on the chin,

Little dent.

As you hold these two points,

You're now connecting into your central meridian.

You can just think about them even.

And when you're holding these and thinking about them,

You're connecting right into the center of your being.

As you press upon them,

Impress this feeling as a signal,

A new code,

A new connection for you to access.

You connect them in and you breathe in.

Long,

Slow,

Out-breath.

And then you can bring your hands to your heart and just feel your beautiful heart.

Thank this heart for giving us so much strength and sweetness.

And those two points now,

You're guiding in a compass.

They are your memory,

Your trigger connections.

So if you ever need to come back very quickly,

Just stop and breathe.

Do those breaths that we did right in the beginning.

And then feel those two connecting points.

You can physically do them or just think about them.

And you will be right back in this energy frequency.

We thank our guides,

Angels and divine presence for holding us so sweetly.

May the blessings of this life fill you up with such great peace,

Happiness,

Wellness,

Abundance,

Light,

Laughter,

Love.

Allow this energy now to be you.

Thank you for you.

So much love.

Transformational! Spirit showed me that what my body felt was a path of safety was actually not safe anymore. That when I followed the leading farther away from what I felt I was ready for, I actually stepped into complete freedom- completely held and supported in this new space. I feel like I was just carried into this new space, and I am more ready for it than I knew. Thank you for shining the light to this path! 🙏🏼
