Transcript

Begin by exhaling all of your air out.

Deep inhale.

Hold it for three counts and exhale.

Again,

Deep inhale.

Hold it for three seconds and exhale.

One more time.

Deep inhale.

Hold it for three seconds and exhale.

Set your intention to allow your breath to remain deep and slow but also natural and smooth.

Begin by placing both hands onto your heart.

Tune in to your palms listening.

Listening to your heart energy.

The energy that beats your heart.

Notice how valiant,

How brave,

How committed this energy is to your life.

Supporting you,

Enlivening you unconditionally everywhere you go.

Loving you even as you sleep.

Tune in to how strong,

How brave your heart is.

And listen for your own heartbeat.

At first it might be difficult to hear.

You might be distracted by thoughts or other sensations.

But keep your focus on listening.

As thoughts arise,

Notice them and let them drift away.

Returning your focus to your palms listening for your heartbeat.

I'm going to drop you in for just a little while.

Let go of time and allow all of your focus to be on listening.

Notice how quiet you become when you listen with all of your attention.

Once you can feel your heartbeat,

And don't worry if you can't yet,

Keep listening.

It's a practice.

Once you can feel your heart beating against your hands,

Connect with that rhythm,

With that beat.

And give your focus to the silence.

The spaces between beats.

Without the silence,

Without the spaciousness,

It would be impossible to feel a rhythm.

A rhythm is a balance of the beat and the quiet.

The beat and the quiet.

Give your focus now to listening for the quiet,

The space.

Now listening for that space.

The quiet is your opportunity to slip into your heart.

Feeling the energies of your heart.

Feeling the emotion in your heart.

Now for the next few breaths,

Just listening.

Allow yourself to enter your heart through those silences.

Listening to and connecting to your heart's feelings,

Emotions,

And energies and listening to them like you would to a little child who's maybe happy and jubilant sometimes,

And other times sad or scared.

And that's okay.

Give those energies in your heart,

Your awareness,

Your attention,

And your love,

Your acceptance.

And with your energy,

With your awareness,

Embrace all of those energies,

Emotions,

Feelings,

And with loving acceptance.

Thank you.

And you might sense the energy in your heart as thoughts,

Emotions,

Memories.

You might sense them as colors or as heaviness or lightness.

If there's any energy stuck in your heart that wants to leave that it's time to be free of,

Open your heart now and release those heavy energies,

Those energies you've felt,

Those aches you've felt.

Feel them and let them go.

Feeling is healing.

There's no need to hang on to them.

Let those old heavy feelings go.

Nothing to do,

Just releasing,

Like dropping a heavy bag.

You just release your grip and let them go.

And now refresh your heart energy by sending love through your hands,

Not romantic love,

But the kind of unconditional love that a mother has for a baby just for being,

The kind of love you might have for a puppy or a kitten just for being.

Just love and care.

Send this love and care into your heart,

Refreshing your heart.

Take a deep inhale and as you exhale,

Release your hands into your lap.

Now,

Begin a visualization to refresh the energies of your entire being.

Visualize yourself stepping into a beautiful stream of water.

The water goes just up to your ankles.

It's refreshing and bright,

Full of life,

Sparkling with clarity.

Inhale and bring this water into your body,

Going up through your feet,

Legs and hips,

Into your belly,

Back and shoulders,

Into your arms.

Let this clear water refresh your energies.

Let this water energy come up to your head,

Face and neck,

Refreshing,

Circulating and clearing your energies.

And now visualize a beautiful warm sun with light streaming in a beautiful iridescent lavender and white color,

So many beautiful colors of light and warmth.

And allow this light energy to flow into your body.

Just like a warm honey energy,

Allow it to pour down over your ears,

Neck,

Over your shoulders,

Into your arms,

Streaming out through your fingers,

Relaxing,

Soothing and energizing.

Allow this energy to flow down the front of your face,

The front of your neck,

Your chest,

Like warm honey light,

Down over your belly,

Hips,

The front of your legs,

Into your legs,

Into your feet and soles bubbling with light,

The light coming out through the tips of your knees.

This same light pours from the top of your head down the back of your head,

Beautiful golden honey light pouring down the back of your neck,

Over your whole back,

Your upper back,

Middle back,

Spine,

Lower back,

Over and through your hips,

Into your legs and through your soles,

Circulating in perfect balance with the cool mountain stream water light.

Energies flowing and circulating.

Bring in another visualization this time.

Feel yourself connected to the earth.

Feel roots extending through your soles,

Connecting you to the earth,

Enlivening you with earth energy.

And allow this energy of a tree to climb through your legs,

Stretching and opening your energy channels.

Allow this tree energy to climb up through your hips and abdomen,

Creating space and energy circulation.

Allow this tree energy to climb up through your chest and back,

Creating space and energy circulation.

This tree energy extends through your arms and hands,

Creating space and energy circulation.

And finally through your neck and through your head creating space and energy circulation.

Feel yourself so spacious,

Open,

Extended,

Long,

Allowing energy to circulate and heal.

Through every corner of your being.

Feel breathing just be with this feeling,

Energies flowing,

Openness,

Balance.

And as you breathe,

Allow more of the cool stream water yin energy to flow in through your souls.

And more of the yang sunlight energy to come in through your crown.

These energies mingle and flow,

Allowing this tree energy to open and expand all of your energy channels.

When you're ready,

Open your eyes.
