Hello there sweetheart welcome to a guided meditation around calling back our precious resources of energy and love and attention.
All of the investments that we make from ourselves into other people and other things,
Other places,
Other spaces.
So we before we begin just coming into a comfortable position you can be lying down or sitting maybe even standing with your feet directly under your hips and a nice straight spine whatever feels good for you in this moment.
Taking a few little last-minute adjustments to your physical body,
Maybe squeeze up your shoulders and let the tension go.
Maybe wriggling your toes or your fingers or adding a pillow or some other support to you just to sink into even more comfort.
And as we bring our physical body to stillness turning our attention to our internal landscape,
Scanning our body for any sense of where there might be fullness or depletion in our energy,
Fullness,
Depletion,
Stuckness,
Excess in any of our organs,
Muscles,
Energetic body.
Gently taking time to check in to your beautiful mind,
Noticing how noisy or quiet it is up in there at the moment.
Bringing your attention to the area at the base of your throat,
The space for your collarbones,
Have a little gap in them and in this space becoming aware of the energetic part of us that holds speaking our truth,
Saying what we really mean to say and the power that we hold in being able to language what we are and are not available for.
Sense into this area and just feel how it feels,
Always knowing and acknowledging that all emotion is welcome here.
Now turning our attention to our beautiful heart space,
Our chest cavity,
Our ribs and thoracic region,
The area of us where it said that the energy of our heart,
Of our desires,
Of our purpose is held.
Noticing how wide and open and spacious this feels or maybe on the flip side becoming aware of any sense of contraction or barrier or protection that you feel like you need to have right now and again honoring every possible facet of your experience in this moment.
Bringing your attention further down into the area just above the belly button where the diaphragm sits and between the diaphragm and your navel,
Said to be the source and center of our power,
Our will and where we feel safe or unsafe setting boundaries.
This is where we hold our knowing about what is and is not us.
Sensing in this into this region just feeling whether you feel filled up or depleted,
Stuck or in flow,
Light or heavy and sinking your attention just a little bit further down between your belly button and pubic bone,
The center of your creativity,
The place where it is said that our inner gut feel and knowing and our ability to make manifest what we desire is sourced from.
Again feeling into the energy around this region and then finally bringing our attention gently to the area at the base of our spine or the base of our pelvis where we hold our sense of groundedness,
Connection to truth,
Feeling of being supported,
Where we can stand strong in a sense of security and safety and just getting a sense of how that area of your body feels energy-wise.
It's taking a few minutes just to scan from this base through the bottom of your belly,
The top of your belly,
Your heart space,
The base of your throat,
Your beautiful mind and connecting like a string of pearls all of these centers of energy to a single point of light and energy right at the tippy top of the top of your skull.
And in this center we hold the connection to the bigger picture,
Our place in the universe,
Our seat at the table I like to think of it,
Where if we are open to receiving that perhaps things just drop in,
Ideas or inspirations or awarenesses come a knocking and honouring the fact that the perfect place and time for this to happen is when we are offering ourselves deep deep rest,
The revolution of taking care of our own energetic needs and just taking stock of how that center feels to you,
Whether it feels like a beautiful source of light and support and connection,
Whether it feels shut down and dark and heavy and again no wrong no right this is just taking a little moment to check in.
And now imagining that we can travel from our skull back through the string of pearls into our mind's eye,
Base of our throat,
Our heart space,
Our top of belly,
Bottom of belly and grounded root and we're going to imagine that somewhere in our belly wherever it feels like it wants to pop into your awareness we become aware of this deep well of well-being this is the source of your vitality and your energy if we were looking at this through a traditional Chinese medicine lens we would say it's your kidney energy that you're genetically born with and then we can travel through our lives either nourishing that energy or depleting that energy so coming to an awareness of this center somewhere in your belly and imagine that this deep pool of well-being is the most perfect shade of blue like crystal clear water maybe at the beach or maybe deep in a lake maybe that really really deep green color that you get when you see pools of fresh water in amongst the rainforest or in a stream and feel the energy glowing or flowing from this center and now notice that the blue or the green that you have in your mind's eye is in the sun and you can see the sunlight glistening over the surface of the moving water the surface of the moving water all those little sparkles of light and vitality and well-being all that beautiful nourishing energy and sink into that feeling of having so much deep deep resources of time energy vitality love attention and watching that light glisten on the top of the surface of the moving water cast your attention outside of yourself taking in where your body is sitting or standing or lying comfortably taking in perhaps the room that you're in perhaps the whole house or the suburb the town allowing yourself to zoom out so that you become aware of the whole country that you're in and then zoom so far out that you can sense the entire planet earth and now you can see the blue or the green that you have in your mind's eye you can sense and become aware that there's other little glimmers of light across the surface of the earth and the country and the state and the city and the suburb and the home and the room that you're in which are glistening with little tiny particles of your energy and vitality of your love and attention that you've invested in places and spaces and people and relationships and roles and old stories and you can notice now that those little tiny glimmers of light can be called home to that deep well of well-being so as you draw your attention back to the internal well of well-being we take this opportunity to call all those tiny glimmers pieces of you that are hooked or connected to things,
Places,
People,
Roles and relationships that you no longer wish to invest in perhaps because they're no longer in alignment to the rules you choose for yourself perhaps because those people don't need your energy or attention in the same way that they used to perhaps because you now truly understand that you being well resourced with all of your precious energy,
Time,
Love and attention is so so much of service and in service to you and your relationships to the women that you are pulled and called to help to the community that you serve and will serve in the future and ultimately to the world understanding that you being well resourced with all these pieces coming home is of highest service to everyone literally on the planet so taking a few moments to call those pieces home all these little tiny sparkles of light these little tiny sparkles of light unhooking,
Flying through the stars and the sky and the land,
Maybe even the sea through all the different places,
Spaces and people back home to that deep well of well-being in your belly maybe the color of the well-being well is changing,
Maybe you can see even more sparkles on the surface just allow the awareness to float to you bringing to your mind's eye the sparkles coming to land in your body over the next three breaths so as we're inhaling imagine drawing all those sparkles released and coming home to you into your belly,
Into the well of well-being and as we let the breath go,
Exhaling anything that can be released physically,
Energetically,
Emotionally from you as a result of calling the pieces back home and as we breathe in drawing the last little stars deep down into the well of well-being and as we exhale sighing out anything that's ready to be surrendered and final breath in,
Inhaling all those stars and if it feels comfortable to do so holding that breath at the top at the top for maybe a count of four or five maybe even eight or ten whatever feels good and on your last exhale a big sigh and whatever other noise comes out of your mouth release,
Relax,
Surrender allowing your breathing to come back to a natural rhythm and when you're ready and only when you're ready there's no need to rush,
You can choose to rest for longer just floating to the surface bringing your consciousness up and into where your body's in contact with the surfaces beneath you and when you're ready gently starting to move your fingers and toes take a big stretch or a knee hug or a gentle rock back and forth whatever your body's asking for and then slowly only when you're ready gently blinking your eyes open coming back into the room and taking the time to perhaps journal on any awareness or insights that have come a calling and have a beautiful day
