At The Corner Of My Past And My Heart

There is a place where the wisdom of your past can meet the knowing of your heart. In this gentle meditation, you’ll journey through a quiet woodland to an imagined meeting place where there is nothing to fix, analyze, or decide. With loving awareness and compassionate curiosity, you’ll be invited to listen to what your experiences have taught you and reconnect with the knowing that already lives within you. This is a practice of stillness, trust, reflection, and remembering that your heart and inner knowing have never left you.

Hello. And welcome to this guided meditation. The corner of my past and my heart. This is not a meditation about analyzing the past. It's not a meditation about fixing the past. It is a meditation about becoming still enough to hear your own knowing. Now I invite you to relax. Hmm. Settle in. Settle into a place. Where you can absolutely surrender. To this process. You know what that is. Just take a few moments to do that. Settling into your body. Just really letting the day fall away from you. Now you're settled. Find your breath. Notice. Notice how deep your breath is. Notice where it goes on the inhale. And what is riding on the exhale. I invite you to take a gentle. . . Through your nose. And then just allowing that exhale. Just leave with a sigh. Hmm. And I invite you to do that two more times on your own. Very well. Now I invite you to imagine yourself. Walking through a wood. Let's say it's even kind of a magical woods. There's a little bit of a sparkle as the sun comes through the trees. Leaves on the ground, Hear birds song off to the side. Nice warm breeze. Everything about it is inviting. And as you wander through this magical woods. Notice ahead of you a crossroads. You see another path. Coming from the left. And as you approach. You see a bench there. It's empty, But it feels very inviting. And it feels comfortable to you. Invite you to have a seat. Or perhaps your curiosity causes you to want to look around and peer down that path. Make yourself at home. And just notice to your left side is this pad. Is leading toward you. Just notice the shimmering gold in the air. It's just like, Pixie dust. All that you're sensing. Is the path behind you that carries your experiences. Your lessons learned, Your wisdom gained. The mistakes that you survive. The joy that you remember. It's all there. And it's all there to offer you. It's wisdom. And just notice on this bench that you're sitting in. Become aware. Of that present moment. Notice. How you're feeling in your heart. Maybe place a hand or two on your heart. And for a moment, Just thank your heart. For beating it. From the moment it began. Thank your heart's space. The space that holds the loving awareness and the compassionate curiosity with which you can see the past. And just feel. The safety of your own space. Might be a little unfamiliar. But it's yours. You belong there. And now as you're sitting in this heart space on this bench. With your past open and ready to offer knowledge. And wisdom. And understanding. Just sit and feel. What it feels like to be human. At the corner. Of your past in your heart where they meet. Now in this meeting, There's no decisions required, No problem to solve. Just a time to simply. Wish them. Perhaps you have a wandering, A query. Of this meeting in this space. You know, Is there something that you already know that you can feel? Is there something that you're ready to remember? What feels true to you. When you find yourself. Just wondering. What the right answer is. What you should do. What is right for you. And what is right for everyone else. The answers are already there. It's remembering. The space that you're in right now, That is always there. It's yours. And you can always thank it. You don't need to earn a place there. You don't need to be good to be allowed in. That is your space of love. Now just rest in this space with your wanderings, With your questions. Trust that knowing does not always arrive in words. It may arrive as a feeling. A softening somewhere in your body. A sense of peace. Throughout your system. I invite you to rest. In this silence. And listen. That's right. You can trust this space. It is yours and yours alone. It is pure. It is love. You at this time, I encourage you to thank the wisdom of your past for coming forward. And meeting up with the knowing of your heart. To offer you. Direction. Just know this truth. Your heart. And your intuition, Your knowing. Have never left you. They're there. They are the core of who you are. And as we become still. We hear. Our inner knowing. So now I invite you. To thank your heart space and thank your past for coming together. And let them know that you will see them again. Now just gently bring your awareness back to your body in your space. Start moving around a little bit, Rolling your shoulders. Breathing. Open your eyes when you're ready or stay in this meditative space as long as you desire. Peace for you.
