Today's meditation is about expanding your world,
Feeling your connection to all that is.
Everything starts with you and your amazing and magical breath.
So let's get started there today.
Get yourself in your favorite position for meditating.
Remember to respect and honor your body by being as comfortable,
Warm and safe as possible during this and every meditation.
Let's begin by taking three long slow deep breaths in together.
First breath in.
And release.
And release.
Next breath in.
And release.
And magic third breath in.
And release.
In today's meditation,
We're exploring your place in the world,
Extending your imagination and your thought and your energetic power all the way out into the universe.
Starting right where you are in this physical place in this amazing,
Miraculous magical body that you are in.
Feel the chair or the floor,
Whatever it is that's supporting you and grounding you to the earth,
Keeping your body safe while you and your spirit and your mind go on a wonderful adventure.
Begin first with your breath.
Notice the miracle of air going into your body and your beautiful body taking every element that it needs,
Sending it to all parts of your body.
And then your exhale,
Providing different elements that benefit the world.
Imagine that your breath extends to the space around you.
Just a few feet,
Your own little bubble,
The sacred space,
The sacred circle,
Where nothing but you and your breath exist and the sound of my voice.
You are the master of the small space.
Nothing can enter or leave without your permission.
Now imagine the little bubble,
The little space that you've created around you expands to include the entire room that you're in.
Now you have dominion over everything in the space.
This room is your world.
Nothing can come in.
Nothing can leave except by your leave.
There's no end to the possibilities for this room and for who you can be in this space.
Now expand the circle to the space that you're in.
Now expand the circle to include your entire home or the entire building that you're in.
Fill yourself full of power and wonder as you survey this kingdom over which you have dominion.
Over which you have dominion.
Everything that happens in this building is completely according to your wishes.
You're the master of everything in this space.
Now expand this circle,
This bubble to include your entire neighborhood,
The people who live in your immediate vicinity.
Imagine that you are the kind and patient and tolerant and non-judgmental ruler of everything within this space.
Marvel at the wonder of all of the activities that are happening that are completely foreign to you.
Just a few streets over there may be a family engaged in an ancient ritual unique to their heritage that you've never heard of.
The possibilities for what the universe can create within this neighborhood are endless and you have the power to engage at will and create your reality in any way you choose.
Imagine every living being in this neighborhood as being at harmony,
At peace,
Full of the happiness and freedom and joy that you wish for yourself and for everyone.
Now send your thoughts further to include your entire town.
Imagine that you have the power with your breath to flood the entire town with positivity and grace and peace and happiness and freedom.
Imagine that all of the differences,
All of the wonders all of the activities you never imagined can take place in this safe place where all are welcome to be themselves,
Where all are welcome to choose their thoughts and their responses.
And you have the freedom to be wherever you choose to be.
Imagine the world in which you are now,
The world in which you are now,
The world in which you are wherever you choose to be.
Now expand your circle to include your entire state if you're in the United States or your region or whatever is the next level of geographic territory in your home.
Imagine that you have the power with your breath to infuse your entire area with peace,
With freedom,
With equality and tolerance.
Imagine the wonders that exist in all corners of your country or your state.
Now send your thoughts in your sacred space to encompass your entire continent,
The entire landmass where your body is currently located.
Imagine the wonders that exist beyond what your physical body can see,
The customs,
The adventures,
Plants and animals,
Thoughts and feelings that you've never imagined.
Send your breath and your heart and your love to all corners of this continent.
Imagine the joy and appreciation and wonder on your entire continent.
Now send your thoughts in your sacred space,
This beautiful bubble you have been in for a long time,
Thoughts in your sacred space,
This beautiful bubble you've created to encompass the entire globe.
Imagine that directly across the earth from you is someone who is in daytime if you are in night,
Someone who is in nighttime if you are in day.
Their physical world is the opposite of yours in this moment.
Feel the wonder and amazement at the difference in physical happenings,
But the oneness and the unity that is you and every other being on this planet.
Imagine there's no separation.
Imagine there's only love and acceptance,
Wonder and amazement at our differences and the ways we create in the world.
Imagine that your breath and your power encompasses the entire globe,
Filling every being with peace and wonder and freedom,
Happiness and grace.
Finally imagine extending your reach,
Your power to encompass the entire unnameable universe.
Everything that ever was,
Everything that ever will be,
Every star,
Every planet,
Every moon,
Every galaxy can be reached and touched by your power and your breath.
Experience the wonder,
Unknown planets,
Unknown civilizations,
Unknown energies and elements.
Feel the wonder of the universe that never ends and know that you have the power with your breath and your energy to affect every molecule,
Every atom.
Everything within this vast universe is accessible to you.
You can experience anything that you want.
And you make it happen with your choice,
With your attention,
With your will.
Now gently feel your consciousness beginning to contract back down to include the globe,
The entire earth.
Then gently to your continent,
To your country,
To your state,
To your city or town,
Your community,
Your neighborhood,
The building you're in,
The room you're in,
The space you're in.
And finally back into your beautiful,
Precious,
Amazing and powerful body.
Celebrate the trinity of your spirit which is infinite and eternal,
Unconfined,
In this beautiful,
Amazing body with a glorious,
Harmonious mind.
Know your power.
Know the infinite possibility in this universe for you and the life you choose to create.
Let's end today's meditation with three long,
Slow,
Magical,
Deep breaths in and out.
Each breath suffuses every atom of your body with gratitude and love and peace,
Cementing this meditation,
Cementing you in your power and your absolute faith in the infinite possibilities for your life.
Now the first long,
Slow,
Deep breath in.
And release.
The second long,
Slow,
Deep breath in.
And release.
The magical third long,
Slow,
Deep breath in.
And release.
Namaste.
