Come into a comfortable position.
Make sure your back is straight.
Close your eyes.
And we'll begin with a few deep breaths in and out through your nose at your own pace,
Filling up,
Opening up on the inhale and on each exhale,
Really feeling in your body that sense of letting go,
Of release.
So becoming a little bit more alert on the inhale and then balancing that out with the relaxation of the exhale.
And at the end of your next exhale,
Allow your breath to be natural,
To just flow at its own rhythm.
And we'll check in with your body,
See if there's any tension,
Any areas where you're holding on.
So bringing your awareness first to the crown of your head,
Your forehead,
Your eyes,
Cheeks,
Nose,
Mouth,
Tongue,
Jaw,
Ears,
Neck,
Shoulders,
Your right arm and hand and your left arm and hand,
Your upper back,
Your lower back,
Your sit bones,
Your chest,
Abdomen and hips,
And your right leg and foot and your left leg and foot.
And now bringing your attention to your heart center,
The center of your chest,
Your divine heart here,
Your spiritual heart,
Imaginings if you're breathing in and out of your heart center and ask yourself,
What is it that you want more than anything else in the world for yourself?
Remembering to look inside for the answer because so much of the time we're focused on the external world,
Trying to find a solution there and the solution is inside.
So we ask this question in almost every meditation.
So we are all very clear on what it is that's most important to us and try as best you can to come up with one word to describe what it is you most want.
Something along the lines of peace,
Contentment,
Love.
It doesn't have to be any of those words but generally speaking,
One of those words speaks to what it is we most want.
They're good pointers.
And now imagine your answer written across your heart center.
As you inhale,
You see the words expand,
Coming to life and releasing,
Contracting on each exhale.
As you silently repeat the word like a mantra,
Each mantra synced in with the breath.
And as you silently repeat this word,
This sacred word that is pointing to what it is you most want and you see the word at your heart center,
Expanding and contracting,
You can feel the energy of your mantra.
You can feel the softness,
The vitality,
The joy that's radiating out of your heart center.
This blissful energy spreading out into every cell in your being,
Through your whole body,
Sinking into what it is you most want,
The energy of what it is you most want,
Feeling it right here,
Right now.
Continuous waves of this energy radiating out from your heart center,
Permeating every cell in your being,
Continuous flow of this loving,
Kind energy.
It's as though you can feel each individual cell,
Each cell radiating with this blissful energy,
So alive,
So connected.
And now letting the mantra go and seeing your mantra dissolving into your heart center and resting in the vibration of this energy,
Feeling that gentle expansion on each inhale,
Each cell individually expanding,
Opening and each cell on the exhale,
Releasing,
Surrendering,
Healing the warmth of this energy,
The comfort,
The care.
If you notice a thought arising,
You just see it floating by,
No temptation to leave this energy,
This is what you most want,
Right here.
It's right here in this moment.
