Welcome.
This is Lovers Breath and today we're gonna do this couple of meditations with expanding the heart.
When we take the attitude of expansion,
We look at the whole picture.
We look at each other and we feel the other as a whole person.
The intention is to allow yourself to fully expand,
Fully expand the heart,
Fully expand all the feelings and emotions towards your partner.
We start this meditation ideally in a seated position,
Facing each other,
Possibly cross-legged on your bed.
Feel into the space.
Feel your sitting bones on the mattress.
And lift up your head so your spine can be as straight as possible.
Now close your eyes.
Take a deep breath in.
Exhale and feel how some weight of the day falls off your shoulders.
Take another deep breath in.
And on the exhale,
Relax your neck,
Your shoulders.
Keep on breathing deeply and sink a little deeper with each exhalation.
Take a deep breath in.
And release.
Now feel into the space.
Feel into the presence of another.
Without seeing another,
Simply feel.
Feel your partner's energy.
Feel your partner's energy moving through the space towards you,
Towards your body.
Feel it approaching you and touching your skin.
Feel the energy of your partner moving through the skin into your body and from all corners of your physical body moving into your heart.
Feel that present energy,
That energy of your partner moving through the space into your body towards your heart.
Stay here.
Stay with your heart.
Feel your heart beating.
Feel it radiating warmth into the rest of your body.
Stay with this sensation and feel.
Feel how the sensation expands.
A powerful yet subtle expansion from your heart.
The sensation expands from the heart space into every part of your body towards the neck,
Up the head,
Along the arms,
Towards your hands,
Down into your abdomen,
Your hips,
Your genitals,
Your legs,
Towards your feet.
Feel the sensation expanded into your whole body.
Feel every single cell of your body flooded with that sensation coming from your heart.
And now feel that expansion going beyond your body,
Creating a thin layer,
A thin layer of energy that surrounds your skin.
Feel into that space where these sensations coming from your heart move beyond your body,
Creating a soft subtle layer on top of your skin.
Now feel that soft layer resting like a warm blanket on your skin.
And feel how with every breath that layer moves softly,
Expanding on the inhalation.
And on the exhalation,
It touches the skin.
You feel the warmth within.
And now from here,
Expand that energy even further.
Let it move out of you,
Radiating from the heart into all directions,
And let it expand in your mind's eye towards your partner.
Let it expand and flood towards your lover's heart.
And as both of your hearts are now sharing each other's energy,
You feel the moments your hearts connect,
The energy rises.
The energy rises from one to the other across both of you.
And the moment you feel your full body flooded with your own heart energy instead of your lover,
Expand even further.
Expand into the whole room around you,
The whole room flooded with energy,
Flooded with love.
And visualize your partner,
Your lover across,
Radiating that limitless love out of the heart while you are adding yours from your heart.
Fully embrace these sensations.
And feel how by doing so,
Your heart expands even further,
Sending more love towards your partner's heart,
Expanding into the room,
Flooding into the whole building.
Creating that layer around the walls of the building.
And with the next deep inhalation into the heart space,
You expand further,
And on the exhale you send the love beyond the walls of the building.
The love that's connecting your heart,
Sent into all directions,
Up into the sky,
Down into the earth,
Into your whole neighborhood,
Sent into the town or village,
Your city,
All across the streets,
The parks,
The rivers,
Flooding your whole province,
Flooding all the state.
And expanding across the country.
Take a deep breath in.
Exhale.
With the next deep inhalation I want you to expand even further,
Going beyond the country,
Filling the whole continent,
And wrapping that layer of love around the surface of the earth,
The whole planet surrounded by that loving energy that comes from the connection of your heart.
Exhale yourself on the earth,
Spreading your love,
Your connection,
All around the planet.
Visualize that layer,
Layer of love around the earth.
And with the next inhalation you expand even further,
Go beyond all the borders of the planet,
Up into the atmosphere,
Up towards the moon,
The solar system,
Filling the whole universe with these sensations that are coming from both of your hearts.
Keep expanding as the universe keeps expanding.
Exhale.
Feel into your heart.
Feel into your body,
And feel the connection between the two of you in this limitless universe.
I leave you two in this space.
Enjoy each other's presence.
Thank you.
