Hi I'm Nami and welcome to this practice which is inspired by a beautiful beautiful piece of music that you'll hear in the background.
The music was composed by another wonderful teacher here on Insight Timer,
Blossom Violet.
Listening to the music called Grace of a Butterfly,
I felt a sense of love,
Lightness and a sense of connection with what has been,
What is and what will be.
Some people,
I confess myself included,
Do consider butterflies as a connection to those we have loved and some of us see butterflies as a supportive loving presence,
As a sign that we are still connected but the love remains.
Pausing for a moment to listen to the music and see what comes up for you.
When we bring to mind a butterfly,
We see that lightness,
The lightness in rest,
The lightness in movement,
The grace,
The going with the breeze.
Perhaps as we sit here and rest ourselves,
Inviting in a lightness,
Seeing where we can release,
Seeing where we can let go and inviting that spirit into this moment,
So perhaps scanning around the body and seeing where we might let go,
Where we might invite a lightness and ease.
Sensing what we most need to hear,
Being open to messages that come through the music,
Perhaps bringing a butterfly to life in your mind's eye.
And feeling the sense of comfort and peace between you and the butterfly,
Another living being,
Coexisting.
May you be well,
May you,
Like the butterfly,
Live with ease.
May your heart and mind be free,
Awake and free,
And may you know that you are loved.
And thank you so much for practicing with me today.
