Your Solid Foundation Sleep Meditation

On some level, we all understand, that structures crumble without solid footing. But how much do we think about, the strong foundation we need inside? Close your eyes and check in with yourself, try to see how you’re holding up. Are there cracks in your underpinnings? Do you feel tremors now and then? We don’t all start out on solid ground, some get more support than others. And then when we’re tasked with building our lives, we forget to ask if we’re ready.

Breathe,

And come inside,

Breathe,

And allow your body to melt into comfort.

On some level,

We all understand that structures crumble without solid footing,

But how much do we think about the strong foundation we need inside?

Close your eyes and check in with yourself.

How are you holding up?

Are there cracks in your underpinnings?

Do you feel tremors now and then?

We don't all start out on solid ground.

Some get more support than others,

And then when we're tasked with building our own lives,

We forget to ask if we're ready.

We assume we have all that we need,

And it feels as though the world around us expects it,

But we never know just how much that is until we've already started building.

By then,

It's easy to decide that everything will probably be fine.

We might travel years down the road before worries creep into our minds.

Once uncertainties fill our minds,

The cracks are already there.

The cracks don't mean the house will fall,

But instead are reminders to take a peek below.

Just like maintenance for your house,

Your soul needs tune-ups too.

We need to know of creaks and shifts,

Of changes at our center.

Sometimes the act of checking in is all the process requires.

There are times there's work to be done,

Tasks that cannot be ignored.

Some fixes may call for brand new tools,

While others are familiar.

Your soul will tell you what it needs,

If you just ask the question.

Inhale and sink deeper into knowing.

See just what you need.

Exhale as insight finds you.

Believe in the growth it promises.

Fear often comes when we do this work,

But know that it's an illusion.

There's nothing to fear from your deepest self,

And it will never leave you forsaken.

Evolution must be a collaboration,

A continuous project of growth.

If you tend the framework regularly,

Your spirit will do the hard work,

But if you let it fall into disrepair,

If you look away when it calls you,

You cannot move toward serenity,

And your list simply grows.

Instead,

Stay on top of the job,

And give it consistent attention.

That effort will yield an unshakable foundation,

And a beautiful home for your soul.

Breathe in and picture the dwelling you've built,

The perfect place to thrive.

Live out with certainty,

As you remind yourself that that dwelling is yours.
