What could you bring into this life experience because of your unique life journey? What have you felt, endured, and understood because you have lived, you hold a gift of energy that awakens through the hardships of our life journey? The gift within, like a ribbon floating in the wind, no longer attached to me, but floating free. I let go of all my labels.

A little sound to bring us in.

And as we take a beautiful breath into this body,

Breathing in this beautiful life force energy.

Feel as if you are welcoming yourself back into your own space.

Deep breaths into your being and settle your body and your being into this moment.

Honor you for being willing to show up and to hold gracious space.

And as we are breathing in,

Let's welcome this beautiful feeling of light and love and wellness around us.

Imagine yourself in a beautiful powder,

Chrysalis of this light and love.

And welcome yourself into the very center.

Feel now as you are breathing in that you are drawing in the life force energy into your center,

Into your heart,

Into your throat.

And you're connecting it right through the center of your body,

Connecting it all the way down into the earth.

Feel as if you are beginning to activate the very center of yourself from the center of your being.

Take a deep breath in and just hum it through.

We imagine that we are opening up all those chambers within our being,

All the places that have become locked and blocked.

And we're allowing the sound to move easily into all the places where we have shut down our systems.

And we imagine that through this opening,

The energy begins to flow like a stream finding itself once again in perfect flow.

Focus now on a part of your body that is to receive this beautiful energy of light and love.

Take a deep breath in and open it with sound.

We settle down.

We call in our guides and the divine presence,

The highest vibration of light and love to hold us now as beings that are willing to hold a space,

To recognize ourselves as a connecting point,

A conduit between all that is and this beautiful earthly realm.

As you open the energy field around you,

See it going beyond just the space that you're in now,

But far beyond and beyond and beyond that.

Imagine how far you could open your energy into the spaces that we do not even know.

We imagine sound waves very evident to us in this moment and that we can see with the right equipment what the sound wave looks like when it's really close to us.

But as it moves away,

The wave of the sound is still there.

The sound is still there.

If we had to create a sound within us that held a thought,

An idea,

A dream and a desire,

And we imagine we translated that through this beautiful human being as a resource of energy into a sound wave,

What might you transmit into the space around you beyond and beyond and beyond?

Ask your being,

What might it be?

What might you be able to bring in now that would serve all life,

That would bring an amplification of energy into the space?

What do you hold?

What do you know because of your exquisite unique life journey?

What is deeply aware inside of your system?

Your journey has given you a unique perspective,

What you have felt and what has been a struggle and everything you've endured and understood.

It is that that is the gift.

Think about what you know because you endured,

Because you reached deep down into your courage.

When have you really had to dig deep into yourself,

Into your resources and resiliency to find the gift that would bring you through the deepest darkest times?

Allow yourself to see the gift of the gift.

You found it.

You are still here and you are the holder of that gift.

And your massive experience of pain and hardship,

Trauma and suffering awakened it in you.

How would you have found out how strong and courageous and beautiful you are had you not had that hardship?

Allow yourself to deeply feel what it is that you know as your deepest longing desire because of that pain.

As you reconnect to the feeling,

The emotion of this,

Begin to see it as a signal forming in your system,

A wave pattern.

And begin to see this wave pattern opening itself out and extending like a ripple in a pond,

A ribbon waving in the air.

And then let go of this ribbon.

Let go of the holding,

The attachment.

Understand that your mortal form brought it into you so that a part of you that is divinely creative,

Intuitive could tap into this gift.

And your mortal form held the attachment to your pain and sorrow,

Hardship and trauma.

And in some way,

We identified ourselves with this pain,

This experience.

We own it.

We attach.

But that was never the reason.

The experience was only so that we might know.

So that we would reconnect to the gift that lies within,

Deep within.

I am still here even though.

As sure as your heart is beating,

Feel the strength in the chest of your body.

And open up that energy across your shoulders and down into your back and stand or sit or lie down as you are.

And hold yourself strong.

Hold this energy and strength around and through you.

I know.

I have felt.

I have endured and I have suffered.

I have seen and I understand.

And like the ribbon now that we have been holding on to for the longest time,

Waving in the wind as the pattern,

The sound wave pattern.

We let it go.

And we watch this beautiful message,

This beautiful ribbon dancing in the breeze be carried.

And we know it was never the experience,

But it was the gift within.

May the gift find itself moving to where it is needed.

May this pretty ribbon be picked up by someone,

A message of beauty.

Someone let it go.

And now it is just a pretty ribbon.

No attachment of drama,

Karma,

Pain and suffering.

I let it go.

And then I stand here.

And I ask myself now,

Who am I?

Who am I now without the attachment,

Without the label or the identity of this that has been my pain?

Who am I?

Ask even deeper,

Is it possible that this that I've been holding on to for so long has alienated me from others,

Separated me?

Has there been a sense of isolation us and them,

Disparity,

Duality?

Have I used the words,

You don't know what it was like and pushed the other way and outside of the misery that you alone care to hold?

Imagine if we are no longer holding the pain and the misery,

Then there is no need to push anyone away who we feel does not have the same title.

I am not my illness.

I am not my suffering.

I am not my experience.

I am not my pain.

I am not my hardship.

I'm not my anxiety or ill health.

Then who am I?

Look into the field of energy that you are holding around you now.

See if there are any barriers that you are creating,

Isolating you from everyone else.

Are you claiming something special that alienates you from others?

Have you set yourself apart?

Are you saying to the ones around you,

You just don't understand?

Are you blaming and shaming their lack of knowing what it is that you have been carrying?

Then we have lost the message.

The experience was to know.

The experience was to find the gift in the knowing.

There is not a wall or a barrier.

Rest your body into bed.

Just breathe.

Make some space into your energy field now.

How much more can we release?

Who could I be if I empty out all the clutter and all the pain,

All the drama?

Who could I be now?

What could I bring into my life if I let go of ownership of my pain and misery?

What could I bring into the space that I free up now?

Notice any resistance that you might have to releasing your story,

Your game.

Notice that it is only your awareness of your identity that claims it.

Who am I without my story?

What do I hold if I am not holding my story?

Keep opening up the energy right from your center and ask yourself to find the truth that awaits right there.

Relax your body.

We empty the space within.

We empty our mind.

Notice how you are feeling as you are asking yourself to do this.

If there is resistance,

Drop into it and allow for that.

Be gentle with you.

Be the gentle guardian of you.

The child that wants to hold the toy that claims it as its own.

Like a child who brings their broken toys in tears for us to mend.

So I brought my broken dreams to God because He is my friend.

And then instead of leaving Him in peace to work alone,

I hung around and tried to help in ways that were my own.

And then at last I snatched them back and cried,

How could you be so slow?

My child,

He said,

What could I do?

You never did let go.

Feel yourself finding the willingness to let go.

Rest your body in the space where it is right now.

Become aware how gravity is holding you perfectly.

Drop your weight even more into the space.

You are still being held in the exact same way.

The holding is the illusion.

The gift is the letting go.

Ask your beautiful being,

What can I let go of?

That no longer serves me.

And then just wait there and trust.

Allow.

We open the energy of willingness,

Alignment,

Connection,

Trusting our divine inner compass,

Trusting divine guidance,

Seeing and holding ourselves as a divine instrument of light and love,

A willingness to be here and to experience this journey so that we can deepen our awareness of the gifts of life.

Ask yourself again,

What do I know because I was willing to love?

Imagine that the gift of what it is that you know is the gift that is deep within you.

It is a sound,

A vibrational field.

It is a frequency.

And we can begin to transmit that frequency into the field around us now.

It moves graciously and easily from us like the ripple in the pond,

Like the ribbon blowing in the wind.

It can move to where it needs to go because we release our attachment to it.

Let go,

Let go.

Now see yourself in the perfect place where you are in your home and in your space.

That where you are is a unique space in which you can place the imprint of your soul,

Your deepest desires and longings,

And the gift of your life journey.

And imagine that because you are here in your body,

The gift is being held through your body and your form.

It becomes tangible.

You are a divine resource of light and love.

Hold this gift with all your heart and all your soul.

And may it be the greatest gift that you offer into this life experience.

There is nothing else that we can leave.

All our stuff is just stuff.

The imprint is our legacy.

We place our heart and soul through the resource of this being for this legacy to be the greatest gift in our amazing space of transformation right now.

Take a deep breath into your body,

Into your beautiful being.

As you breathe out,

Relax your body,

Relax your shoulders.

Gently bring your awareness back to the space that you're in.

Feel the gift of you honoring you with every breath and every step and every beat of your heart.

May you continue to do your journey with this ease,

Grace,

And flow.

So much love to you,

My darlings.

Thank you for holding gracious space and thank you for holding it with every breath.

Take care,

My darlings.

Thank you for you.

Namaste.

Dear Joy, Each time I am guided to a meditation of yours, I curiously wonder the depths and breadth I will travel. In surrendering to your guidance, I encountered a deep and visceral truth... a deep fear of letting go at the very core of my being... not believing God would be there to catch me when I did let go. Thank you for helping me shine the light in this dark space and help me to see where I was still vying for control. Bless you, dear one 🙏 So much love ❤️
