Hello everyone and welcome.
Whenever you're ready,
Close your eyes,
Get yourself in a comfortable position and listen to my voice.
This is a guided meditation designed for those of you who are struggling,
Suffering,
Who wish to give up.
Sometimes,
Life just seems like it's one big obstacle after another.
The walls get bigger,
The mountains get bigger,
And we just feel like giving up.
It feels like it's too much.
These are the times to pause,
These are the times to slow down,
Maybe make some changes,
Maybe letting go of something.
Whatever it may be for you,
I want you to know that this is not going to be forever.
There are times when those mountains no longer exist,
Those walls crumble,
And the path is clear and life gets easier.
Sometimes the wind pushes our sails and helps us,
And I know right now this is not something that you think is possible,
But if you understand the flow of life,
You understand that nothing stays the same,
And so my dear friends,
This is where bravery,
Strength,
And true courage lives,
In the unknown,
In the challenges,
In the obstacles,
When you feel there is no hope.
And so,
We're going to take this time to restore our peace as best as we can,
To remind ourselves that there is so much more for us,
And even a little gift that I discovered many years ago when I found myself in this situation.
And so,
Beginning to breathe in and breathe out,
And with each breath,
Do your best to relax.
I know it can be difficult,
But just do your best to get there.
I am not here to tell you that what you experience is,
Isn't valid.
I am sure it is,
I am sure you have every reason to feel the way that you do.
And so,
I want you also to take this moment to acknowledge that,
To honor that,
That your pain is valid,
Your frustrations are valid,
Where you're at,
How you feel is valid,
Anyone who would be in your shoes would feel the same way.
Let yourself show up for yourself,
Let yourself listen and feel and be honest,
And I want you to scan your body now,
Just noticing where this energy,
This heaviness,
This pain lives.
Everybody will have a different center in the body,
It may even be multiple places and that's perfectly fine,
And if you're not sure,
That's okay too,
Just choose a spot.
And so,
I want you to breathe into that part of your body and allow it to just expand a little more,
And as you breathe in,
I want you to speak to that part of your body and I want you to tell it,
I see you,
I feel you,
I acknowledge you.
And next,
We're going to call assistance from your spiritual team and your higher self to remind us that we don't have to do this alone and that there is a team by our side.
And so,
We call them forth now,
Inviting their light,
Their love,
Their healing,
Their guidance,
Helping us activate the wisdom within ourselves so that we can move forward with strength,
With power,
So that from this situation,
We can create something better,
Something stronger.
We call forth this healing,
This light now,
And just feeling this presence around you,
This gentle,
Loving,
Divine presence showing up for you right now,
A sense of comfort and lightness surrounding you.
And inviting this presence now to place a hand on your body where that energy,
That block is,
And their light begins to merge into your body and melt away any heaviness,
A sense of warmth and expansion entering you.
Just allowing you to breathe a little lighter and feel a little more present.
As we sit here now,
I want you to ask yourself,
What is on the other side of this challenge?
If you overcome it,
What will you or could you discover about yourself,
Your life?
Is this situation run its course?
Is this something that you have carried with you for many years or is it more recent?
And why are you struggling maybe to change,
To let it go?
Why do you hold on to it so much?
Imagine now a life without it.
This attachment that you have that is causing this suffering.
Imagine if you could start from scratch with nothing to lose because in a sense right now,
You feel as though you have lost everything.
A blank canvas.
The opportunity to create something brand new.
Just notice how you feel about that idea.
If there are any parts of you that feel a sense of hope and awakeness,
A sense of possibility,
A door that could open.
And just so you know,
You don't have to make this decision right now.
We're just seeing other possibilities.
We're just tuning into something else and just giving yourself permission to be free.
To be free from the pain.
From this identity that maybe has given you so much but it has also taken so much.
And from this space of hope,
I want you to also understand that there is a part of you that knows that you are worthy and that you deserve that happiness,
That peace,
That light.
Now this is not to say that life does not come with its challenges and obstacles but life is much easier when we are not suffering so much.
When we are free from this heavy weight in your chest that slows you down and makes everything so difficult.
You have one life that you will remember.
And so I want you to let go of expectations from society,
From your family,
From your friends.
Even from yourself.
True freedom.
Who are you and what do you want from that space?
Really take it there.
No pressure,
No expectations.
Who are you?
And if there is a part of you that feels that lightness,
That freedom,
Dive into it.
Explore it.
Just take this moment to taste it.
Remembering the essence of your light,
Of your life,
Of your energy,
Of your purpose.
And so I want you to give yourself permission to let go of expectations.
To let go of the pressure of society,
Of family,
Of friends and of yourself.
You don't owe anything to anyone.
Imagine a life where you just follow your light.
Where you just are.
And take a few deeper breaths now and just notice if there is more expansion in you.
If there is a sense of peace and relaxation that is beginning to awaken.
This is telling you something.
That there is truth in this moment.
That there is something in here that is connected to something that you need to follow.
Today we awaken our light,
Our purpose,
Our essence.
Today we give ourselves permission to be free from the expectations of the world,
Of society,
Of our family,
Friends and above all of ourselves.
We may not know how,
When or where.
But I want you to remember that you can.
All you have to do is begin to give yourself permission.
To choose for yourself.
Make a different choice.
Go in a different direction.
When you have nothing to lose,
You have everything to gain.
So walk a new path.
It may be scary,
But that fear will create excitement and adventure.
It will bring you back to life.
And so just taking this moment to honour yourself.
And inviting our spiritual team to continue to guide us and help us along this journey.
And so whenever you're ready,
We're going to begin the journey back to an awakened state.
Following your breath.
Feeling your body.
If it feels right,
Begin to wiggle your toes and your fingers gently and slowly.
There is no rush.
But when it feels right,
Come back and open your eyes.
