Hello,
This is Michelle Arakelian and welcome to this guided meditation to give you just a few minutes of peace that you so deserve.
Let's activate peace that is already within you.
Please sit comfortably and close your eyes.
Bring your awareness to your breath,
Simply observing the inflow and outflow without trying to control it in any way.
Take a few long,
Deep breaths,
Allowing your body to settle into wherever you are sitting.
Wherever you are is perfect.
With each breath,
Allow yourself to become more relaxed,
More comfortable,
And more at peace.
As you inhale,
Be aware of how your body feels.
Breathe into any tension or tightness.
Check in with your mind,
Your thoughts,
And your emotions.
Remember your thoughts and emotions are not who you are,
So just notice them and let them move on by.
As you exhale,
Let go of everything that doesn't serve you or concern you right now.
Now begin silently repeating the mantra,
Shanti,
Which means peace.
Shanti,
Shanti,
Shanti.
There's no need to focus or concentrate.
Whenever your attention drifts to thoughts in your mind,
Because it will,
Sounds in your environment,
Or sensations in your body,
Gently,
Effortlessly return to your mantra,
Silently repeating shanti.
All watch the time and we'll tell you when it's time to stop repeating the mantra.
Enjoy.
Please keep your eyes closed.
Stop repeating the mantra and just rest.
Rest in existence.
Rest in awareness.
Rest in being.
Just be.
Now take a few deeper breaths,
Gently move or stretch your body as you ease back into activity but still holding the essence of stillness and silence within you.
When you're ready,
Please open your eyes gently.
Bring your hands together in your heart center.
Take a bow of gratitude to your higher self,
Your soul,
For taking the time to be here today.
This is Michelle Arakalian wishing you a peaceful mind and a happy and healthy life.
Have a wonderful day.
Namaste.
