Welcome to this meditation on moving through mistakes.
In life,
We all make mistakes,
Some big,
Some small,
And we can either let them define us,
Hold onto grudges,
Be trapped in the past,
Or we can move through them,
Learn from them,
And let them go and become the person we wish to be.
While we can't change the past,
We can change this moment right now.
We can choose to make our precious life wonderful,
Make amends for the past,
And move forward with head held high into a beautiful new life,
A life of freedom,
Of joy,
Peace,
And inner calmness.
So to begin,
Let's take a few beautiful breaths,
Really deep,
Deep breaths.
And as you breathe,
Just letting your whole body become completely relaxed,
Letting go and dropping deeper into that peace and calm that is always underneath all other experience.
And as you breathe,
Bringing your awareness to yourself as a being of light,
Like a shining star of peace,
You can imagine a shining tiny,
Tiny point of light,
Pure light.
And as you visualize and feel that light,
Just remind yourself that originally and eternally,
You are a good and pure soul,
Pure being.
No matter what you've done or haven't done or what's happened,
Originally you are good and pure and worthy of love.
Just breathe in that good feeling that you are a beautiful being,
Worthy of love,
Of respect,
And that you can choose to become the highest version of yourself from right now,
Right now,
Today.
The only form of real repentance is to change.
So are you committed to change?
You can put your hand on your heart and say either out loud or in your mind,
In your heart,
I commit to change.
I commit to being the highest version of myself.
I commit to being the best I can be from today,
Right now.
Just feel that relief,
The good feelings,
The power coming back to you as you breathe in,
Just breathing in the good energy from the universe and from a higher power,
Filling you up,
Supporting you on your change.
The world wants you to change.
Everyone wishes you well for your transformation.
By you becoming the best you can be,
The whole world is blessed.
Just breathe in that commitment deep in your heart.
And smiling,
Giving thanks.
And now as you breathe in,
Imagine the golden light from the supreme being,
Being who is the purifier,
The ocean of joy,
Bliss and love.
Just filling up with that light as you breathe in,
Like you're receiving spiritual sunshine.
And as you breathe out,
Just let go and release any dark energy,
Any old worries,
Thoughts.
Just let it go.
Don't let the past define you anymore.
The past is past.
And so let go of the old behaviors,
The old thoughts,
The old relationships,
Whatever you're letting go,
Just let that be cleaned out of your heart and mind.
Each out-breath,
You're cleaning it out.
And each in-breath,
You're filling up with pure light,
Enthusiasm and new energy,
Fresh energy for your highest self.
So breathing in that beautiful,
Fresh,
New energy and enthusiasm,
Feeling lighter and letting go of the past.
And know that each moment you spend receiving this new light and really feeling that enthusiasm and newness and commitment to yourself,
Each time you do that,
You are empowering your higher self and each time you release and let go of the past,
You're no longer defined by the past,
Associated with the past or trapped in the past.
And letting the past go.
And filling up with that newness,
Freshness and commitment to yourself.
And you can continue to just see this light like a spiritual sun with spiritual sunshine shining into you.
And this sunshine,
This spiritual light has the ability to destroy and burn away the past.
Just like fire can burn and destroy things that are thrown into the fire,
As you throw your mistakes,
Problems and past into the fire of love,
The fire of yoga,
This spiritual fire,
The past is burned.
So as you breathe out,
Just releasing and letting the fire burn away and purify the past.
As you absorb and receive the rays of light.
Rays of hope and come back into that feeling of safety and peace.
And knowing that you did the best you could,
The best you could at the time.
Even if you knew better,
You still couldn't have done better,
Otherwise you would have done.
So just let go of the past,
Knowing you really did the best you could.
And commit again and again that I am going to become the highest version of myself starting now today.
And the method is to breathe in that beautiful light,
Feel that light coming into your being,
Purifying you and let the past be burned away.
So as you breathe out,
Just releasing and letting the fire burn away.
And the fire of love,
The fire of yoga,
The fire of love,
The fire of love,
The fire of love.
And the method is to let go of the past,
Knowing that you really did the best you could.
And so as you come slowly and gently back into your life,
Into the day,
Ask yourself,
What do I need to become?
What is the highest version of myself?
How can I live the rest of the day,
The rest of the life as the highest version of myself,
The best I can be right now?
See yourself as someone who is at their best.
Who is this highest version of you?
What do you look like?
How do you feel?
How do you smile?
How do you breathe?
And just feel that you are that highest version of yourself right now.
Noticing that you feel different,
That you breathe different,
You smile different,
That you have new enthusiasm.
Life is truly a blessing,
A beautiful blessing for you and for the world.
And as you go into your day,
Go into your day from that place that I am,
This new self,
I am changed and I will continue to change for the better again and again and again and again.
Thank you for your beautiful presence.
Thank you for your blessings and have a beautiful rest of your day.
Until next time.
