Purification Meditation
A guided meditation for purifying our selves and releasing old, disempowered thoughts, wounds and emotions (both unconscious and conscious) and uncovering our true selves.
Transcript
This is a purification meditation.
We begin with the breath.
Take a few slow,
Long,
Deep breaths,
Extending the belly on the inhale,
Bringing the belly back on the exhale.
Another one.
Feeling relaxed,
Going deeper within ourselves.
We take another breath and exhale.
Feeling more relaxed,
Continue to breathe.
In our mind's eye,
We find ourselves standing,
Facing elevator doors.
We take a few steps toward the elevator,
And the elevator opens.
We're drawn to go inside,
And we walk forward,
Feeling so safe,
Getting in the elevator.
We walk in,
And the doors close,
Still feeling safe.
And we realize we're drifting down to the ground floor.
Down,
Deeper we go,
Feeling relaxed.
We feel the pull of the elevator bringing us down,
Down,
Down.
When we reach the ground floor,
The elevator doors open,
And we walk out,
Finding a beautiful lake in front of us,
Surrounded by hills with trees all around.
So much greenery,
So much beauty.
We hear birds.
The water is lapping up to the shoreline.
The sun is bright in the sky and dances on the water.
We walk up to the water,
Decide to take our shoes off and put our feet in the water.
It feels so good.
It's warm,
Nurturing.
The sun is basking down on us.
We decide we'd like to go in the water,
So we remove our clothes,
And we walk into the water.
Even if we can't swim,
We realize we can now.
This water is safe and will protect us.
As we wade into the water,
It feels so good.
It's warm,
Safe.
We decide to float on top of the water.
We feel the warmth of the water on our back and the warmth of the sun all on our front.
We relax and soak it in.
Take a breath.
We feel ourselves begin to drift under the water,
Feeling so safe.
The water is crystal clear.
We look around.
There are beautiful plants in the water,
Fish.
We allow this water to wash over us,
And we realize we can breathe even under the water,
Just like being in our mother's womb.
We feel safe and protected.
We realize this water is gently removing parts of us that don't belong anymore.
Our old wounds,
With every breath we take of this water,
Washes through our bodies and rinses us of all of our old wounds.
All the things that we have been holding onto are becoming dislodged and washed away in the water.
We breathe deeply and slowly,
Allowing this purification process to happen.
We let go of everything we don't need,
Everything that's in our way of becoming our real self,
Our true self,
Everything that's covering up what's true about who we are is being washed away.
Take a breath.
We feel the water wash through us.
It's beautiful.
The sun still beating down,
Lighting up all the water all around us.
It's so clear.
It feels so good.
We feel completely protected and safe.
As the sun goes down,
We notice that around us it becomes darker and darker without the light,
But we still feel safe under the water,
Without the light in the sky.
We're still protected and safe,
Still feeling purified,
Noticing how easy it is to breathe.
Our breath becomes deeper as the purification process continues.
Deep breath.
We feel safe and we notice a spark in the sky,
A light,
And we notice it's the moon,
A beautiful full moon rising high in the sky.
This light also dances across the lake and it finds me at the bottom of this lake and continues this purification process,
Illuminating my whole being,
Cleansing me,
Purifying me.
I give to the moon anything and everything that does not serve me anymore.
I ask the moon for help and to take whatever might be in my way of living authentically and becoming my true self.
The moon begins to absorb all the things that are in my way,
Even the things I can't see or afraid to see.
I feel safe.
I feel so much love from this moon.
We breathe.
Deeper breath,
Allowing the purification to happen,
Filling ourselves with this beautiful water and the light of the moon,
Allowing the water to wash through me,
Cleansing me.
When the evening is over,
I notice there's the light of the sun rising high into the sky,
Creating clarity all around me again.
Underneath the water where I am lying is so clear again.
I can see and what I notice and realize is even when there's darkness,
I still felt safe and protected.
I take a breath and I feel myself rise to the top of the water and begin to float toward the shoreline.
Taking a breath,
The sun dancing across my body,
Continuing the purification,
Filling me with light,
Helping me to remember who I am,
My real self.
Taking a breath,
I realize I've drifted up to the shoreline and I sit up and stand up and I give thanks to the sun and the moon and this beautiful water.
I thank it for cleansing me,
For purifying me.
And I leave in this place anything that is in the way of me becoming all that I can be.
I leave it here.
I bow to the water and turn.
I put my clothes back on,
Grab my shoes and I walk toward the elevator doors.
I climb in and push number 10 and watch the doors close and feel myself rising back up,
Taking a breath,
Feeling the pull moving up on the elevator and the doors open when I reach the top floor.
I walk out and I realize I'm home.
This is the new me that purified me.
Taking a breath,
I'm home,
Connected to me fully,
Always,
And we wiggle our toes and our hands.
If you haven't already opened your eyes,
Do so when you feel ready,
Taking slow deep breaths,
Coming back into the room,
Feeling present,
Grounded,
Feeling like you're here.
You've come home.

I loved every step. From entering the elevator to purifying in the crystal clear water of the lake. I’m afraid of water and lake water to boot. But this meditation took me where there is no fear at all. Purification, remembering who we are. Priceless!! Will revisit often. Namaste. ❤️
