So start like we always do with a nice deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth.
You can let it out with a big sigh like I just did.
Imagine the top of your head gently opening,
Expanding.
Invite divine light and love to come in through the top of your head.
If you see this as a color just invite that color in and let this light,
Let this energy fill your head.
Let it come into your scalp,
Into your skull,
To the bones of your face and jaw.
Invite this energy to come into your throat and neck.
Let this beautiful divine light flow into your shoulders and into your upper arms.
Let it come into your elbows and your forearms,
Into your wrists and hands.
Allow this beautiful light,
This energy of the divine to flow into your chest and upper back.
Let it come into your belly,
Your mid-back,
Into your low belly and low back.
Let this energy come into your hips and pelvis.
You can place your hands on your thighs if you like.
Just encouraging this energy to bring us down into the body fully.
Take a nice big deep breath into your hips and your pelvis and let it out with a sigh.
Allow this beautiful divine light to flow down your thighs.
You can run your hands along the thighs if you like just to help your body recognize this energy as it flows down.
Let it come into your knees,
Down into the shins and calves.
Take a nice deep breath into your knees and lower legs.
Send a bit of gratitude into this lower part of your body for supporting you physically and energetically and allow that energy to come all the way to your ankles and feet.
If your feet are touching the ground,
Really feel where they contact the ground.
Imagine yourself digging your toes into some earth.
Maybe it's a beautiful soil garden or a beach with sand,
Whatever feels good here.
Maybe you're in a beautiful forest for this meditation.
Any kind of trees that come to you,
There's a mossy ground and you're just letting yourself really feel rooted here,
Connected to this earthy,
Beautiful forest.
Take another two or three deep breaths,
Breathing into any areas of tension that you're carrying in the body.
Let that go for this meditation.
Notice how you're feeling now as compared to when you first started.
Maybe you feel heavier and more relaxed.
Maybe your mind is calmer.
Maybe your emotions feel settled.
Let everything settle like ripples on a pond becoming totally still.
We're staying completely in the body today so give yourself a moment or two to really become present here,
Breathing into any areas of tension,
Anything that's calling for your attention.
Send a little bit of love into the area just around your body,
Part of your body energetically.
Let everything settle and relax here.
And as you're ready,
Let yourself be in this forest.
If you're familiar with traveling to your energetic sanctuary,
To your planet,
You can imagine this forest here.
If you're not,
Don't worry about it.
Just picture whatever comes to you.
Invite an image in.
Set an intention to be in your personal forest of growth here.
Look around at the trees.
Notice what they look like.
Are they tall?
Are they densely packed?
Are they far apart?
There's no wrong answer here.
Whatever you see is perfect.
Let yourself wander through this forest until you find your personal tree,
Your personal stage of growth right now.
Maybe it's just a plot of earth.
Maybe you're still in the seedling stage.
Maybe it's a small sapling.
Maybe it's a huge tree.
Whatever you see is perfect.
We're just connecting with our stage of growth here.
And I want you to sit next to your tree,
To your stage,
And put your hands on whatever it is that's there,
Whether it's just a plot of earth,
Whether it's a tiny sapling.
Whatever you see,
Just gently place your hands here and let yourself feel love and gratitude for this tree.
Let yourself become one with this stage of growth,
With this tree,
With this seed,
With this sapling.
Let yourself really feel what it's like.
Fill up the space that you now are.
Fill up the space of your tree,
Of your growth.
If you find areas of damage,
Give them a little bit of extra love.
Let go of judgment and just be in love here.
Just be in gratitude.
Notice how beautiful your growth is at whatever stage you're at.
If it feels appropriate,
You can do some pruning here very gently,
Just as you might lovingly prune a tree or a bush in your yard.
If there's any areas that you're ready to let go of very gently with love,
With gratitude,
With the awareness that anything you release from your tree will nurture another tree in this forest.
So you're releasing these things with love.
So anything you've been holding on to,
Maybe you're ready for new growth and you'd like to lovingly place an acorn in a beautiful plot of rich earth where it will grow.
Whatever comes to you here is fine.
Your tree,
Your growth may not need any pruning and that's fine too.
Give your tree whatever it needs here before we move on.
Maybe your tree needs water,
Maybe it just wants love and gratitude as we started with.
Maybe it wants decorations,
Maybe you hang some beautiful garland.
Maybe your tree needs a hug.
Let yourself really be present with this growth.
Let go of any impatience that comes up.
If you feel that your tree is not at a stage that you were hoping for,
That you were expecting,
Let go of those expectations.
Your tree is perfect,
Your growth is perfect.
Send this love,
This joy,
This gratitude into your growth for a few last moments before we move on.
And as you're ready,
Stay in your forest.
Maybe you sit with your back against your tree or next to your plot of earth,
But let yourself separate ever so slightly from the tree.
You're staying connected but you're not one at this point.
You're stepping back into your human form,
Into your physical form to ask for messages about growth.
We're in our forest of growth which is the perfect place to ask for this intuitive guidance.
And remember if nothing comes to you today that's okay,
That's what's meant to happen.
You can always repeat this at another time.
Be gentle with yourself.
And as you're ready we're going to ask for our first intuitive message.
This is a message for you from your body about growth.
What is the divine message?
What is the intuition today tell you that your body needs for growth?
Don't try too hard here.
Ask the question and then let it go and just sit quietly and see if you get a response.
Thank your intuition.
Thank your guidance for this message.
And then we'll move on to ask for a message from our emotions.
So this is a message from your emotions to you about your growth.
What do your emotions need from you to continue growing?
You may receive just a one-word answer.
It may be more complex.
It may not be in words.
You may see a picture of something.
Let these insights come to you as they're meant to without judgment or expectation.
What do your emotions need from you to continue your growth?
And then as you're ready we'll ask for our third message tonight.
Let yourself really expand here outside of the physical body just for a moment.
This message may come from your higher self,
From your soul,
Your spirit.
It may come from one of your guides,
Your spirit guides.
It may come directly from the source,
From the divine.
Ask yourself what is the message from spirit to me about my growth?
How can I serve my spirit?
How can I continue to grow and expand?
What is my spiritual message today?
And as you have these messages let them come fully into your space,
Into your body,
Into your energetic body as well and then let them go.
Watch yourself sit in gratitude for a moment for this connection.
Redirect some of that love and gratitude towards your tree,
Your growth and set an intention,
An affirmation for yourself about your personal growth.
Whatever comes to you here again is perfect.
If nothing comes that's fine.
It may be as simple as I am open to growth.
I release fear and open to growth.
I expand into growth.
I fill up my growth,
My tree.
I am fully present in my growth.
Anything that comes to you here say it out loud if you can if you're comfortable.
Carry it into the next few days.
Notice how you feel here.
Do you feel more expanded and light than when we started?
Do you feel enlightened?
Do you have a path forward?
Maybe you've just fallen asleep and that's okay too.
Let yourself slowly come away from your forest and back into the body.
We never really left the body.
We were perhaps in our sanctuary briefly,
Perhaps just in the mind or the space around ourselves but make sure you come fully back.
I am fully present in my body.
I am fully present in my body.
I am fully present in my body.
Let yourself take a nice big deep breath and this time let it out with a sigh,
With a sound.
Take another deep breath.
Let those messages come back to you and then breathe them out into your energetic space,
Into your body,
Into your emotions,
Into your heart space.
And as you're ready,
Bring your awareness into your feet.
Maybe wiggle your toes a little bit.
If you'd like to imagine closing the top of your head,
Your crown chakra,
You can but you don't need to.
You can stay open to this divine light if it feels appropriate.
Maybe wiggle your fingers a little bit.
Just let yourself come back into the body.
I am fully present in my body.
I am open to growth.
I expand into my growth.
As you're ready,
Very gently you can open your eyes.
