Hey there,
This is Jen with Laughing Lotus Wellness.
Welcome to our meditation practice.
And so I welcome you into our meditation,
Harvest,
Celebrating the moment.
And I invite you to find a comfortable seat or lie down,
Whatever feels best for you today,
Whatever is resonating for your energy and your body.
And begin to anchor in,
Either on the back or the seat if you are sitting up,
To close the eyes or soften the gaze or find a focal point.
And making any adjustments to be just that much more comfortable.
And for today,
As we begin the journey,
We begin with setting the tone of the practice by either creating an intention or sankalpa.
So creating your own or borrowing mine,
Planting the seed of this thought if it resonates for you.
I am grateful to harvest moments of success that I can celebrate my own goodness,
Light and energy.
I am grateful to harvest moments of success that I can celebrate my own goodness,
Light and energy.
I am grateful to harvest moments of success that I can celebrate my own goodness,
Light and energy.
I invite you to begin the journey today by tapping into the layers of your being,
Calling awareness into the physical body,
How the physical body is showing up to practice.
Just observing the state of the physical body,
Scanning from head to toe,
Just observing and then releasing that layer of awareness for now and moving into the next layer of the thoughts and the mind and the busy space where that ego wants to press in and fill our time and energy with a loop of thoughts and just flowing into the mind space and noticing how that is showing up today.
How is the mind showing up?
Just observing,
Remembering to anchor in through that breath.
As we are using that dual focus of awareness in the breath and then releasing that layer of thoughts as we move inward just a little bit further into the emotions and just bringing the awareness,
Observing the emotional component of your being wherever you are in the practice right now and observing with no judgment whatsoever just bringing that awareness as you anchor into the breath and really coming into the present moment,
Releasing that layer of emotion for the moment and moving even further inward into the layers of wisdom and insight and listening in for whatever might be showing up today just allowing that to come forward,
Be present,
Observe it,
Allow it a moment of space and then releasing that away as well and moving into the very deepest layer of who we all are,
That pure consciousness and pure light,
Allowing yourself a moment to really connect with that innermost beautiful space.
The space that's the most us having released the layers that can cover us up,
Observing what it feels like to be that highest form of who you are,
That highest and purest form of consciousness,
Beautiful light and energy,
Of course bringing that breath with you and all the layers are made up of different energy.
You can imagine it's almost like releasing suits that we wear so that you can really show up in this present and highest form of who you are.
Today we begin with bringing the breath right into the solar plexus,
That mid body with a brilliant gold energy right in the very center of the torso inviting this radiant sunshine and sensing the vibration and energy there.
The vitality and life force is so present here.
And now beginning to breathe into and out of that energy center,
Inviting it to grow more vital and powerful with each and every breath.
The energy flowing through your body is like a beautiful fire,
Passionate,
Empowered,
Like electricity that is singing through the entire length of your body.
Breathing here in and out of the solar plexus,
Healing gold light and energy,
Imagining the breath as you inhale through this energy center and exhaling it out each time you exhale,
Imagining that golden light radiating further and further away from you.
And so lit in light and vibration in this space,
You exude a sunshine.
I invite you to go inward into the mind,
Bringing that radiance upward into the mind,
Allowing it to fill this space and again radiate the energy.
Here I invite you to begin to contemplate the moments of goodness,
Success,
Joys and steps you've taken to celebrate.
As you breathe here,
Giving yourself permission to steep yourself in awareness around how you have shown up for yourself and others.
Have you been patient,
Kind,
Resilient,
Determined,
Effortful,
Successful,
Playful,
Joyful,
Vibrant,
None of them are Independent or cast out as your own.
And saying in your mind,
I am celebrating my wins in each moment.
Inhaling I am,
Exhaling celebrating the wins in each moment.
And inhaling I am,
Exhaling out celebrating the wins in each moment.
Inhaling I am,
Exhaling out celebrating the wins in each moment.
Pausing as you breathe here in and out of the mind space.
Celebrating your wins in the moments.
Inhaling I am,
Exhaling out celebrating the wins in each moment.
And now taking that sense of knowing and vibration,
Pulling that breath and energy right into the heart space.
And knowing here that you are worthy of celebration.
On an inhale I am,
Exhaling worthy of celebration.
Inhaling I am,
Exhaling out worthy of celebration.
Inhaling in I am,
Exhaling out worthy celebration.
And really pausing here to feel the worthiness of being celebrated.
And bringing awareness to that golden energy right in that heart space as you breathe in and out of the heart here.
And using this moment to really sense the idea of successful moments.
Achievements and beginnings,
Endings,
Successes in your mind,
Body and soul allowing that experience to flow through the entire body as the breath flows allowing the energy to increase and radiate outward.
And I invite you to imagine an arena.
It is full of people.
Excited,
Exuberant and high vibrational people who are in deep celebration.
You notice that there is such an incredible sense of love and light here in this place.
Even though it is an arena,
You have no sense of overwhelm.
Because this is an arena full of your supporters.
Every face familiar.
And there is a clapping and enthusiasm and you are magnetically drawn into the center of this space.
And you are filled with the experience of soul celebration.
And it is filling you to bursting.
And standing in that space and receiving the beauty of all of that celebration.
The harvest of all of the effort.
And as well the arena of people stands and cheers,
Laughs,
Raising their hands over their heads,
Yelling your name and saying things like,
Way to go.
You are amazing.
You are awesome.
Absolutely incredible.
You did it.
And pausing here to hear what they have to say to you.
These supporters.
These loved ones.
And perhaps you would normally shy away from this kind of attention.
But in this moment,
You harvest the ability to stand in this incredible vibration and celebration.
Simply taking in the energy of the crowd,
Of the love and incredible energy in this space.
That gold,
Light and radiance is being elevated by the energy here.
And you can sense the stadium is filled with a glow that could light an entire city.
And it feels so good to just accept this moment of celebration.
And as you breathe,
Receiving the celebration of your moments,
Efforts and achievements.
And that energy and gold and light growing and expanding with the celebration.
And taking a moment here to note where you feel celebration in your body.
How does that feel?
Is it in your mind,
Your heart,
Your solar plexus,
Where does celebration feel embodied?
Does it have a certain sensation or vibration,
A color,
Texture,
Sound?
Really embodying a sense of celebration to take with you into the world.
And with the breath here,
Just staying with a moment of celebration and joy,
Harvesting this moment and experience as you breathe for a few moments just like this.
And returning to that sankalpa or intention for practice.
Sending these words deep into the layers of your being.
I am grateful to harvest moments of success that I can celebrate my own goodness,
Light and energy.
I am grateful to harvest moments of success that I can celebrate my own goodness,
Light and energy.
I am grateful to harvest moments of success that I can celebrate my own goodness,
Light and energy.
And beginning to slowly return to the earth body,
Feeling the sense of muscles and bones and how they root you in the physical plane.
Paying attention to how you are feeling right now,
Just noticing the experience of celebration.
Sense of confidence,
Power and joy like flowing sunshine.
Bringing awareness to the breath in your body as it expands the chest,
Ribs and belly.
Bringing in that vital life force energy,
Expanding that golden glow so that you can send it outward.
And beginning to run the thumbs across the ends of the fingertips,
Gently wiggling fingers and toes,
Bringing awareness into the body.
And I invite you to rub your hands together if that would feel good,
Creating some warmth and sensation in the palms and then placing those right over that mid body,
That mid belly,
That sweet solar plexus space.
As you breathe here in gratitude for the journey and this beautiful source of power,
Light and celebration.
Pausing for a moment,
Consider how you will take this felt sense of embodying the moments,
The wins,
The celebrations,
What it's like to take stock of your successes,
To feel celebrated.
And as we gently close our practice,
I encourage you to take this sense of joy and celebration with you into your week.
Returning to this practice of self celebration whenever you need it.
And if it resonates,
Bring your hands to a prayer position at heart center as we close today.
This self celebration in me honors the self celebration in each of you as we harvest our joy in celebrating our moments and wins from a place of love and light.
Namaste.
