Welcome to this partial lunar eclipse full moon in Pisces meditation.
Whenever you're ready,
Find a comfortable seated position or laying down.
And close your eyes.
Taking a deep breath in through your nose.
And exhaling it out with a sigh.
And again another deep breath in feeling your chest expand and your tummy expand.
And sigh out and exhale,
Letting it all go.
Bringing your attention to your body.
Feeling the weight of the surface beneath you.
Slowly begin to scan for any tension.
Unclenching your jaw.
Dropping your shoulders.
Releasing your fingers and your legs.
Releasing any other tension that you might be holding.
Bringing our awareness back to our breath,
We're going to extend our exhales to be slightly longer than our inhale.
Inhale for 4,

Letting your nervous system receive the message.
I am safe enough to slow down.
Now I want you to bring to mind something that you are ready to stop carrying.
This can be anything from emotions,
Thoughts,
Habits,
People.
And when you have it resting there.
Say it to yourself.
I see you.
I no longer need to carry you.
And take a deep breath in.
And then on your exhale,
Imagine creating a little more distance between yourself and that thing.
We are not our thoughts and we are not our emotions.
We are here to observe them.
In your mind,
Look to your side and see a calm body of water beside you.
The surface is completely still.
And beneath the surface are where all of your old emotions,
Memories,
Beliefs and patterns are hiding.
Slowly begin to see whatever is ready to leave rise to the surface bubbling up.
Say to yourself.
I don't need to understand everything to release it.
I don't need to control everything to move forward.
I can let the past be complete.
Choose one of those patterns or habits that came up to the surface.
And focused on just that for a minute.
Once you have it in your mind,
Ask yourself.
What am I ready to stop repeating?
What have I been protecting by holding on to this?
Then say to yourself an acknowledgement.
That may have helped me once.
But I don't need it in the same way anymore.
Take a slow inhale.
And release it on your exhale.
Imagine placing the old pattern or habit into the water.
And watch it slowly drift away from you.
Floating across the surface of the water.
This is your surrender.
You are giving back what you no longer need to carry.
And on your next inhale,
Breathe in nice and deep.
And as you exhale,
Soften your body,
Letting your shoulders drop,
Your jaw loosen,
Relaxing your hands.
And then place your hand over your heart and one over your lower abdomen or tummy.
Feeling your breath moving between your hands.
Say silently to yourself.
I trust myself to move forward without having every answer.
I release what is finished.
I make space for what is real.
I choose clarity over confusion.
I choose presence over fear.
And whenever you feel complete,
Start to bring your awareness back to your body and the room around you.
Bringing gentle movement to your fingers and your toes if you need.
Taking one final deep breath in and a long sigh it out.
And whenever you're ready,
You may open your eyes.
Thank you for joining me in today's meditation,
And I hope to see you next time.
