So let's begin by finding a comfortable position.
Maybe seated or lying down.
Making sure that the spine is long and the shoulders are soft.
Just give yourself permission to let go of expectations.
Creativity needs time and space.
So just accept and allow yourself to be open to whatever happens,
Happens here.
Take a big deep breath in and exhaling slowly.
Allowing your breath to begin to anchor you in this moment.
Allowing yourself to just be.
There's nowhere to go.
There's nothing you need to do.
But just allow yourself to be the observer.
Begin to open your awareness now.
Like the widening of a camera lens.
Let your awareness open and widen.
Notice your breath.
Notice your body.
Notice the sounds in the room.
Any sensations or feelings that arise.
You're simply watching.
Just noticing.
Observing the moment.
Observing your surroundings.
Being curious yet unattached.
And just notice the quality of your thoughts.
Are they scattered,
Focused,
Busy or quiet?
Just observe them.
Observe the sensations.
Your body.
Any warmth or tingling or tension.
And notice the sounds.
The smells.
All the things happening around you.
Everything is welcome.
It all belongs.
So let your awareness rest,
Being open,
Moving from thought to sensation,
Sound to breath,
To whatever else is happening without judgment.
And now turn your awareness inward.
Away from the external world and instead into a place within.
And bring your awareness to the space just behind your navel.
Your sacral chakra.
Your center of creativity.
Of passion.
Of emotion and flow.
And imagine here a soft glowing orange light that begins to swirl and spin in this place.
This light is warm.
It's cozy.
It's full of potential.
Like the amber glow of a candle or the shimmer of the rising sun on water.
And as you breathe,
This orange light expands,
Growing bigger,
Stronger,
More vibrant.
Filling up your hips and your pelvis,
Your low abdomen.
And this orange light activates your creativity,
Sparks it,
Brings it to life.
Opens up the gates,
Allowing it to flow freely.
As you focus on this orange light,
Tell yourself three times,
My creativity is alive and I am open to inspiration.
Now tell yourself three times,
I trust the flow of my ideas.
Continuing to focus on this orange light.
As you focus on it,
Your ideas,
Your inspiration,
Your creativity,
It's waking up.
It's activating.
It's igniting within you.
You don't have to try.
You don't have to force anything.
Just activate this space.
Illuminate your creativity.
Stay open,
Playful,
And allow the energy of creating to move through you.
Focus on this orange light.
This place where you can plant ideas.
You can cultivate your vision.
You can be curious,
Open-minded,
And creative from here.
Just be with it.
Trust and know it's activated.
It's working.
You are a vessel of creativity.
It will come in its own time,
In its own way.
If you trust,
Give it space and foster it.
Now taking a big deep breath in through the nose,
Sighing out through the mouth.
Beginning to reawaken,
Returning to this moment,
Returning to your body.
Just ending with a moment of gratitude for your ability to create and be.
And closing your meditation practice.
Thank you so much for being here today.
