Transcript

So this meditation is specifically designed to help release disappointment or any feeling that something didn't work out according to plan.

In life some things work out the way we expect them to and sometimes they don't.

What's important is what we do about what happens,

Where we go from here.

And we can turn everything around to our advantage and we're going to experience that in this meditation understanding that there truly is benefit,

The seed of benefit merged inside of every single situation in our lives.

And so with that in mind,

With that awareness that there truly is benefit,

The seed of future benefit merged inside of every situation,

Let us go into this meditation.

So we begin just by becoming aware of the feelings,

How do you feel and just embracing what is,

Allowing yourself just to feel whatever you feel in this moment and breathing gently and deeply.

Give yourself this wonderful gift to just breathe and relax.

So each breath just gradually allows you,

Your whole body to relax,

The breath relaxes you.

And each out breath is an opportunity to release and let go.

Just being with what is right now.

And as you breathe,

Just reminding yourself that you are safe,

That you are secure and that you live in a benevolent universe.

There is a sacred,

Deeper reality that governs this entire universe.

It's not always obvious,

It doesn't reveal itself to us in the ways that we may expect,

But nonetheless there is benefit merged within every moment.

And it's up to us to discover and to embrace all the blessings that life is trying to give us.

And so as you breathe and noticing yourself feeling more at peace,

More confident,

Knowing that there is always benefit merged in every scene of this world,

Movie,

This big stage that we are on,

That is playing out according to a grand plan.

And you can relax into that knowing that everything is working out to your advantage.

And just consider a time where you personally experience perhaps disappointment or something not working out the way you wanted it to,

But then it turned out to be a huge blessing afterwards.

Whatever is not aligned with the highest good for all,

We let it go,

We let it go.

So if there is something that you are disappointed about,

Something that didn't work out according to plan,

Just bring that into your awareness,

Knowing in advance there is hidden benefit inside of this.

And see the situation like a seed.

Whatever it is that didn't work out according to plan,

See it as a seed,

Imagine it being a seed that contains future benefits.

And plant that seed,

That situation,

That disappointment,

Plant it in the fertile grounds of this universe.

Just imagine planting it in the ground with love,

Knowing that there is benefit hidden within it somehow.

And water the seed.

Give it love.

Give it thanks.

Then take a deep breath and step away.

Step away.

And know that that seed will bear fruit,

Will give you more wonderful things than you can imagine.

That's a mystery yet to be unfolded.

Mysteries are afoot.

Mysteries are in process.

And there are many seeds of benefit in your life that are actually bearing fruit.

Perhaps the good things in your life,

Ironically,

Are the fruit of things that didn't work out in the past.

And so you are surrounded,

Surrounded with a forest of blessings,

A forest of blessings.

A forest of wonderful opportunities.

And what makes this forest grow and bless you with opportunities,

With situations,

With health,

Wealth,

Happiness.

What allows this to grow faster and provide more for you is having the faith and trust that there truly is benefit in every scene of life.

And having love,

Pouring the water of love,

Putting those seeds in the ground and watering them with your love and your trust.

Giving you love and your trust.

And so knowing there is massive benefit contained within disappointment and situations that don't work out,

Why not pull out some more of those seeds?

What else are you disappointed about in your life?

And take those seeds,

Take those seeds and plant them in the ground with love.

Knowing that as you trust and as you love,

Those situations will soon bear blessings and opportunities for you.

Just imagine yourself being in this garden,

This beautiful forest,

This garden of blessings and opportunities,

Of good things,

Wonderful things.

Filled with light,

With love,

With the light of peace,

With joy,

With bliss and with newness,

Newness,

Newness.

So many exciting new things are on the horizon.

And in fact,

The best is yet to come.

The best is yet to come.

And you don't know what it is because it's a mystery unfolding.

And so just open yourself to this.

The mystery of the best things in your life are coming to you for you to look forward to.

And all the things that happened up until now,

Every single thing that happened is supporting the very,

Very best of all.

So just sending your gratitude,

Your love,

Your trust out into the universe.

Giving thanks for the past,

For all the scenes that happened or didn't happen or whatever occurred the way that it happened was exactly perfect.

For the seeds of future benefit to emerge at the perfect time.

And just ask yourself,

What do I need to do,

What do you need to do starting now to go to the next level in your life?

What do you need to do to go to the next level in your life?

Just allow the vision of yourself.

We're going to count from five down to zero and you're going to see a vision of your new self,

Your higher self,

This new version of you.

And just get a feel for this new you.

Past is perfect just the way it was.

And what are you going to do now and in the future?

You ready to see your vision?

And there is a door,

Closed door with light behind it.

Bright light shining out.

Five,

Four,

Getting ready,

Three,

Two,

One.

And the door blasts open and out you come shining,

Smiling,

This beautiful new you.

What do you like?

What are you doing?

What is the new you?

Just allow yourself to enjoy that vision,

That feeling,

That awareness.

That is who you are,

You are your higher self.

Everything is going to get better and better and better as you hold this vision,

As you start doing those little things that are different,

As you allow yourself to smile,

Be happier,

Knowing that everything that happened has all been good for you in some way and you can take advantage now of all those seeds of future benefit.

Sending your love to the past,

Sending your love to the past,

Sending your love to the present right now and shining your love into the future,

Into this bright new future.

Everything is good.

Your light has returned.

Your glow has returned.

Your joy is returning.

Everything is going to get better and better and better.

It already has and those seeds of future benefit are growing and wonderful new experiences await you.

From the big smile and lots of love,

Keep this with you in your heart as you go about your life.

Wishing you a beautiful day,

Much love and many,

Many blessings.

Notice all the wonders in your life as they unfold slowly but surely,

Seeing those seeds of future benefit appearing before you.

Where are they?

What are they?

Only you know.

And you will start seeing them more and more starting now.

Thank you.
