My name is Megan and I will be your guide during the seasons of the soul meditation.
This meditation is designed to encourage you to let go of tension and fully relax and to reawaken your connection to all that is.
During this meditation you'll become more trusting of the impermanence of everything in the universe and your connection to these ever-changing energies.
So we begin by sitting or lying down,
Whatever feels more comfortable to you.
As you are listening to my voice,
You can feel the support of the surface beneath you.
You may also become aware of every point of contact between your body and this surface.
Noticing how the air feels against your skin,
How your clothes feel against your body.
As you bring your attention to the time of day or night wherever you are,
You become aware of how easy it would be to close your eyes and soften your face and let go.
Letting go of tension,
Letting go of your perception of this time and space and shifting effortlessly into a state of pure relaxation.
Bringing your awareness to your breath now,
Easy breathing,
Focusing on the gentle rise and fall of your chest,
The slight expansion of your ribs with each inhale.
The flow of your breath forces your body and your mind to slow down,
Growing even more restful with each exhale.
Breathing slow and easy.
Inhaling relaxation.
Exhaling tension.
Breathing relaxation and releasing tension.
Very good.
As you are relaxing,
You begin to feel a deep sense of comfort.
This deep sense of comfort you feel forces you to relax even further.
And as you find yourself in this place of ultimate relaxation and stillness,
You sense an aura of absolute love surrounding you.
Perhaps you can imagine this aura as a white or soft blue light.
Remembering a time when you felt a sense of unconditional love towards another,
Or maybe even towards yourself.
If this is difficult for you to imagine turning love inwards,
Maybe you are able to think of a beloved family member or friend,
Or even a dearly loved pet.
It can be a person or pet from your past or your present.
And as you find yourself immersed in the love you feel for this person or pet,
You suddenly remember what it's like to be completely at peace with yourself in this place of absolute unconditional love.
Being here right now in this moment,
In this feeling,
In this sacred space,
Inspires you to reflect upon all the things that have flowed in and out of your life.
The abundant carefree times and the times you felt that the entire universe was working against you.
You have a deep understanding within you that everything in the universe has its own seasons,
Its own path,
And you are no exception.
You are exactly where you need to be in this moment to experience lessons that have been planned just for you before moving on to the next season of your soul.
The more you drift further into stillness,
Any random thoughts have fallen away,
And you recognize that your breathing has slowed down even more without you really having to be conscious of it at all.
It is an easygoing spring morning.
The air smells crisp and new and feels just barely chilly.
The earth glows as the coppery sun sits on the horizon.
You have carefully chosen to wear a soft jacket that warms your body perfectly,
And you feel completely comforted wrapped in its warmth.
As you look ahead onto the lush,
Colorful landscape,
A welcoming soft wind glides smoothly over your skin as it passes by.
And as you notice the calm breeze brushing almost weightlessly against your body,
You find yourself especially sensitive to the gentle breeze as it tickles your cheeks.
This same breeze flutters through a grove of trees ahead,
Their leaves dancing,
Branches swaying and bending slightly with Mother Nature's exhale.
You begin walking closer to this leafy paradise where you see an archway to an overgrown path.
Since it is an easygoing,
Carefree day with nothing to do and nowhere to be,
You decide to walk down this secluded pathway.
After a leisurely walk,
The path opens into a clearing encircled by trees,
Their knotted arms rising upwards and reaching out to create a canopy of leaves.
The sun shines like glitter through the leaves onto the plush carpet of grass below.
In the middle of this fortress of trees,
You discover a majestic rosewood chair with a voluminous arching back and rolling arms,
Hand carved with intricate patterns.
You take a seat in this chair and are enveloped by a white feathery cushion.
You feel the softness underneath you,
On your back and now on your elbows and forearms as you allow your hands to fall towards the arms of this inviting chair.
Feeling the velvety softness between your fingers and the palm of your left hand and your right hand as you slowly glide your hands over the surface.
This space feels so comfortable and perfect,
Familiar.
As if it was made just for you.
You spot a brilliant blue bird sitting atop the branches of a tree,
Her chest the same coppery shade as the sun on the horizon.
She joyfully creates a masterpiece of a song as her mate glides over and lands to join her.
She has waited so patiently during the course of the chilly,
Sleepy winter with the unwavering certainty that this place,
Her home,
Filled with abundance would be expecting her when she returned from her annual journey south.
This beautiful scenery in front of you gently refocuses your thoughts to your own journey.
This is the vitality and also the spiritless times of exhaustion when it seems impossible to make it through.
Perhaps now it's your turn to rest and trust in the journey that your soul has arranged for you.
As you lift your eyes to observe the vast sky,
You notice the clouds seem to be floating swiftly.
The clouds traveling from the west are misty gray and from the east are bright white with hints of blushing pink,
Reminding you of the sweetness of cotton candy.
These seemingly distinctive clouds,
So different from one another,
Unite in the distance to become one,
As if they are aware that even though they seem entirely different,
They originate from the same source energy created in the womb of our Mother Earth.
You are no different than these clouds.
You are these clouds,
Made of the same energy and one with the entire universe.
Your attention is suddenly drawn to a faint rustling sound on the ground.
A dry,
Tattered leaf that outlasted the white silence of winter spirals lazily across the ground.
The once brittle bare trees who shed their leaves in the fall have made room for new growth.
As we too are extensions of Mother Nature,
We too must journey,
Letting things go that no longer serve our lives and making room within ourselves for things that bring us joy.
Each season of your life brings its own potential vulnerabilities,
But also its own irreplaceable forms of beauty.
The lessons gathered and appreciated during the gloomy,
Overcast times give birth to the abundant times that just like spring to the blue songbird,
Will most certainly return to you.
Do not allow yourself to remain attached to what is.
Just let go and flow.
Flow with the path of the universe.
As you arise from the surface of this comfortable seat,
This throne of restfulness,
You begin your journey back towards the entryway of this enriching paradise.
Taking your time to explore,
Taking in the scenery around you,
A renewed sense of vitality washes over you,
A renewed sense of hope,
A renewed sense of connection,
A renewed sense of purpose,
Knowing that any time you need to feel more connected,
More grounded,
You can return to this sacred space that you have created for yourself.
As your world escolitans,
Open your eyes,
You you you
