Welcome to this Spring Equinox Meditation.
My name is Jennifer Mulholland and I am one of the co-owners of Plenty.
I'll be speaking and channeling our words and journey today on the backdrop of my partner and co-owner Jeff Schuck who has beautifully arranged and created the music behind these words.
So thank you for joining us and wherever this finds you,
Invite you to get comfortable whether that's seated on a chair or lying down on the floor.
Someplace quiet where you can turn your attention inward and when you're ready just gently allow your eyelids to close or if you're more comfortable you can bring your gaze down to the tip of your nose,
Bringing your sight to a more comfortable reflective inner space.
Taking a few deep breaths we bring our attention to one of the greatest gifts we've all been given today,
The gift of breath,
The gift of life.
May you take a moment to be thankful for it,
To recognize your specialness,
Your important place here on the planet at this auspicious time.
You're meant to be here,
You matter,
We need you,
We're grateful for you.
Allow your shoulders to start to drop.
Notice any tension that you've been carrying and feel your body get heavier into the chair or onto the floor grounding into Mother Earth.
You sink,
You let go and you ground and simultaneously you open,
Placing your attention into your heart space.
Maybe just noticing how it feels to bring your attention to your heartbeat.
This natural intelligence that's creating your blood flow,
Oxygenating your being,
Your body,
Your organs and this incredible system of interoperability,
Integrating different parts of intelligence to create this healthy,
Strong,
Vibrant,
Capable vessel your soul is living in.
We give thanks to our bodies as we open our hearts to our soul song,
To our spirit,
To our presence that goes beyond our physical form.
We invite the light to come in.
Maybe you imagine the warm rays of the rising sun as you greet it along the horizon.
The warm rays finds you,
Softens you and opens you.
Or maybe you connect to the rising moon,
The pure white light that is here to illuminate,
To govern flow and rhythms and cycles of the tides outside of ourselves and the ebb and the flow within ourselves.
Just allow yourself to receive this light as it ushers in on this day of balance,
The vernal equinox,
The spring equinox,
A time of new beginnings,
Of rebirth,
Of reinvention of recreation.
This light ushers out the darkness as it becomes one with it in harmony,
In balance,
Equal day,
Equal night,
As we become bathed in the invitation of the light.
Feel yourself expand.
Feel the healing qualities of the light that envelops you and that is within you,
Reminding you of your own natural talents,
Your strong intuition and sense of knowing,
Your ability to heal,
The strength of your immune system,
The clarity of your intelligence,
To know what is right for you.
We feel the old models of separation,
Of competition,
Of lack and scarcity falling away.
Those structures and ways of being melt off of our body and into Mother Earth,
No longer needed as we evolve into a new heightened,
More conscious being and species.
We claim our power to cooperate.
We claim our right to receive and create abundance.
We claim our resiliency and our ability to work with other and with one other.
We step into our ability to know,
To see,
To love,
To be.
We call forth the kindness,
The creation,
The comfort,
The cooperation that we seek and that we are.
When we allow the seeds that we've planted in the past to germinate,
We see them sprouting with this new light.
As they grow up,
Strong stalks,
Sturdy roots,
Healthy nutrients within us to create our new future,
To create our new path,
To create our new collective,
Our new community that we have the power to manifest and contribute to.
We find our tribes.
We speak our truth.
We rely on the confidence and the belief that we have in ourselves to create a better world,
To create a better life.
We allow the fertile soil that we have been walking on to germinate our dreams,
To escort us to the people that can help them come to life,
To bring forth our purpose of why we're here and to help us look towards,
Express and be the light,
The positive,
The hopeful as we shed intentionally the false narrative of fear,
Of lack,
Of war,
Of fighting against whatever you're fighting against.
We allow ourselves to soften in this light,
Be inspired by the gift of the equinox,
The gift of spring where the birds chirp,
The leaves grow and the flowers bloom.
That is happening within us too.
May we take a deep breath and inhale this new life,
This new inspiration as we connect deeply to our soul's growth,
Our evolution,
Our becoming.
May you walk in light.
May you be filled with love and may you believe in the gifts that you are as we create a whole new chapter of possibility for ourselves and each other.
Blessed be.
And whenever you're ready,
You can gently wiggle your toes and feet,
Fingers and hands and maybe softly flutterly open your eyes to greet the new day,
The new moment,
The new life that you have to create here and now.
May you be filled with love and may you believe in the gifts that you are as we create a new
