Namaste.
The soul in me sees and honors the soul in you.
This will be a short meditation for soothing the human experience.
So coming into a position that you find comfortable to meditate.
Wiggle in,
Settle in.
Find your space and place.
Taking a moment to connect to your breath.
Bringing all your awareness and attention now into taking a long,
Slow,
Gentle,
Comforting breath.
And exhaling that breath.
Going at your own pace.
Just sinking into the softness of the breath.
Filling the lungs with fresh prana.
Exhaling what no longer serves.
And in your mind's eye,
Putting yourself somewhere beautiful with trees.
As we exhale,
The trees inhale.
And as the trees exhale,
We inhale.
We support one another.
We belong together.
So in your mind's eye,
Give that some exploration and see where you are clearly.
Allowing yourself tender moments of being nestled in a forest or the aspens,
Birches,
Pines,
Whatever your tree is.
It could be spring.
It could be winter.
Let your creativity and your imagination place you somewhere that's beautiful.
Or a grove of cherry trees or dogwoods.
Fresh blooming magnolias.
And invoking your senses,
Begin to smell.
Smell the space taking into your brain the scent of nature.
Take a moment to feel your feet as if they're on the forest floor or wherever you're standing or sitting.
Feel.
Feel yourself connected to this space.
See it in your mind's eye becoming more and more clear.
And now inviting yourself to gently scan through from head to toe.
Noticing places of tension or restriction or constriction or gripping.
Could be things on your mind.
Something you've been grappling with.
Simply noticing what's held in the body as you go through.
Soft observation.
Gently scanning from head to toe.
Checking in now to see if there is one part that's actively asking for your attention.
Find this place in your body that's seeking you to pay attention to it and draw your attention.
Gather your attention in this spot.
Begin to focus on it.
And just begin to notice how you feel towards it.
Let it know that you are here.
That you care about it.
And you'd like to get to know what's happening.
It doesn't have to feel alone because you are here,
The part that's not it.
Check in to see if there's some curiosity to continue.
Asking any other thoughts or feelings to step back so you can just be with this experience.
Drawing to it curiosity.
And sending into it compassion.
Breathing now into this place.
Breath.
Sending it soft thoughts that you love it.
It's a part of you.
You see it.
And you're here for it.
And you want to tend to it no matter what it is.
Also let it know that you understand that it's trying to serve you in some way.
Take a minute and see if you can talk with it to understand what it wants you to know.
What's its message?
Again,
Letting it know that you care about it.
Let it know that you are here.
Just check in and notice if there's any other parts of your body that are asking for this level of attention.
And you can do the same steps by being with the part,
Whatever the part is.
Validating and inquiring compassionately and gently what it wants you to know.
Our bodies speak very clearly and sometimes not so clearly.
And when we start to listen,
We can really understand ourselves from the inside out and begin to give ourselves what we need in a whole new way.
So take a few more very,
Very gentle,
Soft breaths into your body,
Especially this part that you've located.
Letting this part know that you will come back and you'll visit and talk with it if it needs you to.
And as we finish up here,
Take a look around this space,
This beautiful space that you have created for yourself.
You took these moments to create space and grace for yourself.
Take a moment to bow to your heart.
One last long,
Very,
Very deep breath.
And exhaling.
Please let me know what this was like for you.

I'd love to have your feedback.
I'd love to be here to support you in your self-healing journey.
Namaste.
