This is a meditation on a specific situation you would like to reflect on.

Connect with your breathing,

Feel yourself breathing in and out,

Allow yourself to see to notice where you are,

Hear the sounds around you,

Feel the air on your skin,

Whether it's coolness or warmth,

And start clearing the space on the inside,

Whatever comes put it on an imaginable shell,

Thoughts,

Emotions,

Situations,

Just clear the space,

Any difficult emotion appears,

Frustration,

Put it on that imaginary shell,

Don't worry,

It's going to be there check whether there is a space opening inside of you,

Breathe into that space,

Allow it to expand allow yourself to feel the lightness,

The peace and the relaxation of the inside,

And breathe into that space gently,

Kindly,

Compassionately,
