Hey there,
My name is Lisa,
And this is a Cord Cutting Meditation.
There are so many examples of cord cutting rituals throughout history,
As well as throughout so many different cultures,
But in essence,
A cord cutting ritual is using a symbol of an energetical tie to cut you away from an unhealthy habit,
A relationship that may not serve you anymore,
Maybe you are on a new path or a new chapter within your life,
And you need to cut any cords away from things that do not serve you.
Cord cutting is a beautiful healing practice,
But it is a challenging one.
So not only will we be visualizing the act of cutting the cords from things or people that no longer are habits,
Or entities that no longer serve us,
But we will also focus on the tools in the foundation to help preserve the new energy you are replacing it with.
So with that,
Feel free to find a comfortable position for wherever you are at today,
Whatever you feel,
Get nice and cozy,
And take a nice big deep inhale into your body,
And exhale,
Sigh the rest of the world away,
Let it go,
Bring all your energy and focus into this present moment,
Into your breath,
And exhale,
Let it go,
Release,
And last big deep breath into the body,
And exhale,
Let go,
And take a moment to just breathe organically,
As if you are breathing through a black candle.
This black candle,
Within it,
Almost as if you can see through it like glass,
Has all the things that really don't serve you,
The people,
The habits,
The words,
The spaces,
And the ideologies and philosophies that are not in alignment with who you are when you feel your most authentic and grounded,
Your most safe and sacred,
And I want you to go ahead and visualize a silver cord being connected to a candle that you hold in the palm of your hand,
And again,
It's almost like you can see through this golden candle,
And I want you to visualize you feeling your most safe,
Your most authentic,
Your most aligned with your purpose,
And who you wish to be in this life that is yours,
And go ahead and visualize,
Taking a moment to really breathe into that golden candle,
And imagine a fire,
A gentle flame,
Being lit,
To hold on to this candle,
Hold on to this light,
And see and put everything that doesn't serve you into that black candle,
Breathing into all that you wish to release,
And exhale,
Sighing it out into this black candle,
Releasing it,
Letting it go,
And I want you to imagine you lighting the golden flame of your candle,
The one in the palm of your hand,
And this light,
This flame travels,
It travels through the cord,
And lights the black candle,
And in that moment,
The flame cuts the tie,
And the black candle melts,
And let the candle melt as you see it melting away into the earth,
All that does not serve you anymore,
As your golden candle and flame that is in your hands stays bright and strong,
And as you exhale,
Sighing it out,
Staying present in your own life,
Releasing any narratives and storylines that don't serve you anymore,
And seeing that golden candle slowly get absorbed into your heart space,
And whenever old habits or energies start to come up,
Let this candle guide you into where you wish to be,
Into who you wish to be,
And exhale,
Sighing on out,
Letting it all go and melt into the earth,
Till there's nothing left,
Even the wax itself gets absorbed,
And I invite you to ask yourself with this new light,
This new golden flame lit within you,
What must I need to do,
What practices may I need to uphold to keep this flame bright?
And as you exhale,
Letting the rest go,
As you melt shoulders,
Exhaling out through the mouth,
Letting go,
And with that,
Feel free to set an intention for yourself that honors the golden light within you,
That fills the space,
Especially if you feel there's a bit of emptiness after the cord cutting,
Let it be filled with an intention,
And exhaling out,
Letting go,
And only when you are ready,
Feel free to release the image,
All images,
And feel free to gently wiggle fingers and toes and gently float the eyes open if they were closed,
Stretching and moving in any way that feels good.
I thank you so much for joining me for this meditation,
And know that cord cutting is something you can do ritualistically whenever you feel the need to energetically remove.
Again,
It's great when there's a new season,
A new year,
A new cycle,
So whenever you feel like this energy is calling to you,
Feel free to continue the practice,
For cord cutting is a practice and a beautiful ritual that you can always find yourself going back to,
That keeps you in alignment with that beautiful light within you.
So with that my friends,
Until next time,
Namaste.
