Hello,
This is Karen with Open Lotus Meditation.
In today's journey,
We're going to open our heart to healing the planet with a blessing.
During these difficult times,
We see so much violence,
So much pain,
So much hurt.
And we often find ourselves wondering,
How can we help?
How can I extend myself just a little bit more?
And through this meditation,
We're going to be doing just that.
We're going to be placing a blessing,
A prayer for the planet as it so desperately needs it right now.
So let's begin by settling in,
Getting as comfortable as you can,
Gently closing over your eyes.
Take this time to become aware of your body.
Become aware of your emotions and your feelings.
And we're going to let go of what no longer serves us today.
Completely releasing all tension,
All stressors.
And as we start to bring awareness to our body,
Let's begin with our face,
Our brow area.
Make sure this place is calm and relaxed.
Your eyes are gently closed and not straining.
Your mouth is relaxed.
Your jaw is unclenched.
Your shoulders are relaxed away from your ears.
And breathe in and out.
Witnessing your breath,
Feeling your belly expand,
Your chest rise.
Your body is calming.
Your mind is slowing down just a little bit.
And let's flow here for just a few moments.
Now that we are settled in,
We're going to lay this blessing,
This prayer for the planet.
This prayer comes from Dr.
Barbara DeAngelis.
I offer my blessings to the planet Earth,
My home while I am in this body.
My grace now shower upon the world and restore it to peace.
May all who suffer now be comforted and healed.
May all who are oppressed now be liberated and their dignity redeemed.
May all who are lost in forgetfulness now awaken from the great sleep and return to remembrance.
May all beings now live together in perfect harmony.
May all souls now align with their highest.
May all souls now find their way back to love.
And may that love be all that is.
May the one perfect light now triumph over all darkness in all people and all places,
Seen and unseen.
And may the one perfect light prevail for all time.
May there be peace.
May there be peace.
May there be peace.
Each time you offer this blessing prayer,
You will be a healer.
You will be an uplifter.
You will be a blessing.
No matter what else you do that day,
You will be living your purpose.
Take a moment to allow all this metta,
All this love and kindness to expand to our planet.
As you opened yourself to this journey of love,
Of healing,
Whether you know it or not,
You have made a difference and blessed the planet.
As you'd allowed your heart to be purified,
Whether you know it or not,
You have made a difference and blessed the planet.
As you've chosen light over darkness,
Whether you know it or not,
You have made a difference and blessed the planet.
In this moment,
Know that you are courageous lightworker.
In this moment,
Know that you are and can always be a bringer of grace.
In this moment,
Remember you are here on this earth to become a walking,
Breathing blessing.
This will be your greatest soul accomplishment.
Let's flow here.
Let's allow our light to expand not only towards our planet,
But our bodies,
Our soul,
And our spirit.
As you move throughout the day and you find violence,
Hurt,
Pain,
You can say this prayer,
This blessing to our planet,
Expanding metta,
Love and kindness at any time.
Take a deep breath in and release it.
Another deep breath in and release.
We're going to seal this meditation by chanting AUM together,
The hymn of the universe.
Taking another deep breath in.
Now let's put our hands together to our heart center and gently say Namaste.
I honor the divine light in you that is also in me.
And when you're in that space and I'm in that space,
We are one.
Namaste.
This is Karen with Open Lotus Meditation,
Sending you love and light.
