This is Rasa,
Welcome to this Ancestral Healing Sleep Meditation.
Tonight you are entering a space where your whole being can soften,
Where you are gently guided toward peace,
And where deeper wisdom of your lineage begins to rise through you.
When we connect to our lineage,
Many unresolved,
Even karmic traits,
Connections begin to heal.
Much of what we carry isn't even ours,
And today you get to recognize what that is,
And completely let go of it.
The relief,
The healing,
May surprise you,
Because we carry without knowing.
Let's begin.
Close your beautiful eyes now.
Draw this first mindful breath slow through your nose,
Cool and refreshing.
Exhale through your mouth,
Warm and releasing.
Let go,
And do this again twice.
Be active in the release.
Begin to activate the intention of letting go.
Beautiful.
You are opening your heart to this journey,
And it is tender to see.
Feel how the body responds.
The shoulders drop a little lower.
The chest feels more open.
The weight of you is carried fully by the surface beneath.
Breathe again,
Slow and smooth.
Each time you exhale,
The body eases further into rest.
Let your arms settle where they are.
Palms quiet,
Fingers loose.
The legs heavy,
Resting deeply now.
Even the small muscles in your feet soften at ease.
Bring the awareness to the face.
Notice how across the forehead,
A calm stillness spreads.
The eyes relax into their sockets.
The jaw softens,
The lips resting gently.
The rhythm of your breath carries this relaxation forward.
Inhale,
Exhale.
Each cycle a wave carrying you deeper into stillness.
And as the body rests,
Notice a kind of warmth in the center of your chest.
It may feel gentle,
Steady or alive.
Whatever way it shows up,
It glows to welcome you home.
A reminder that you are surrounded by love.
This warmth will guide you further tonight.
Feel the weight of your body now.
How gravity draws you down with a soothing sensation.
And feel how the surface beneath accepts you,
Catches you completely as you keep letting go.
Sense your arms resting in stillness.
Even your fingers seem to release their last trace of effort.
Your legs too,
Long and quiet,
Sinking into ease.
The feet are soft,
The toes falling open as if they are glad to rest.
Bring your attention to your center.
Back to that same kind of warmth in the middle of your chest.
The glow that is steady and warm.
Visualize it as a golden ember,
Shining with quiet strength.
Sense that glow gradually expand,
Filling the chest,
Spilling outward through the shoulders and arms.
Sense it moving downward into the belly,
Hips,
Thighs and calves.
Every place it touches softens into calm.
It flows all the way into the soles of your feet,
Until even the ground beneath becomes soft and calm.
Now call for the glow to rise through the throat,
The face and the crown of the head.
Notice how a warm,
Gentle radiance surrounds you completely now.
Observe how still the space around you has become.
Silence gathers here like a gentle presence.
It feels alive,
Watchful and protective.
So flow with this silence and stay with this glow.
You are now being carried deeper,
Held in safety,
Guided toward what waits ahead.
Visualize how the glow within your chest brightens,
Until the edges of the room begin to fade away.
Find yourself beneath a vast night sky.
The stars are so close,
Glimmering like lanterns hung just for you.
Their light brushes your skin,
Cool and silver,
Leaving a trace of tingles where it touches.
Feel beneath your feet,
The earth is soft and alive.
The moss gives slightly under your weight,
And the scent of pine rising as the forest is breathing together with you.
See how ahead,
The trees stand tall,
Their trunks dark against the starlight.
See a narrow path open between them,
Pale as though it has remembered your steps from long ago.
Step onto it now,
And feel the ground welcome you with every stride.
The trees lean gently inward,
Branches whispering,
Guiding.
And here now,
Through the blend of trunks and leaves,
Notice a flicker of fire.
It is golden and steady,
Pulsing against the night.
Feel how its warmth reaches you even here,
Carrying a promise of safety,
Healing and belonging.
Walk toward it.
Each step brings you closer to the place where the ancient ones are waiting.
See yourself step out of the trees and into the clearing.
At the center,
A bright fire moves with power.
The flames rise and fall in hypnotic bursts,
Casting light across the ground,
Shaping shadows that shift and return.
Sparks lift into the sky and disappear into the Milky Way.
Sense the heat reach your skin,
Warming you,
Pulling you closer.
Around the fire,
A circle of your ancestors wait in stillness.
See how some faces glow fully in the light,
Others remain half in shadow.
But every gaze meets you,
Welcomes you.
The circle of ancestors gathers around you like most powerful presence that recognizes and accepts you fully.
Now visualize,
On the far side,
One elder rises.
The fire bends slightly with their movement.
They walk with certainty,
Holding a staff that is carved with lines and ancient symbols that light up when touched by flame.
When your ancestor reaches you,
The space seems to pause.
Feel their presence land in your chest,
Steady and grounding.
Watch them as they open their hand.
The sacred heart stone rests in their palm.
This stone gets passed through endless generations.
Its surface is dark and warm,
Threaded with faint lines of light that move like slow rivers beneath the skin of the rock.
See it pulse gently.
Take it now,
Hold it in both hands.
Feel its weight press into your palms.
Feel its warmth flood into you,
Like the fire and the earth are meeting inside your body.
Keep the sacred heart stone in your hands.
Feel its warmth settle in your palms.
And now press it gently to the center of your chest.
Sense its healing pulse meet your pulse.
Notice the rhythm that becomes a steady,
Quiet drum under your sternum.
An anchor you can now lean into.
Hear a soft sound rise from the ancestor's circle now.
A low distant drum.
It names this moment.
Hear the ancestors begin to chant.
The chant is kind.
It says welcome.
It says let it all go.
It says let it all go.
These deep,
Heavy feelings,
It is not yours to carry anymore.
Take a solid inhale.
And on the exhale,
Let it all go.
And on the exhale,
Let it all go.
Hear the drum,
The chant.
Inhale and exhale twice more.
Let this be the healing release you need.
This is the moment.
This is the moment.
Whatever comes,
Let it.
You are worthy of this relief.
Visualize the elder lift a white,
Dried sage bundle.
Watch them bring it to fire until the sage begins to smoke.
Now,
With a small,
Deliberate gesture,
The elder traces a pattern in the air above you.
Imagine the fragrant smoke surround your shoulders,
Wrap you in a blessing of steadiness,
Permission and return.
Now,
With the heart stone,
Offer what you are ready to return.
And place that intention into the stone.
A single image.
A held breath.
A tight place in your chest.
You don't need to name it.
Slide that shape from your heart into the stone.
Feel it move as a shape of color or even texture.
Let it go.
Now,
Bring the stone toward the fire.
Release it.
Watch as the flames receive the offering.
The fire does not destroy,
It transforms.
It becomes the energy of connection,
Of truth.
And healing.
Feel the blessings rest on you.
Hear the elders quietly chant in the background.
The ancient heart stone cools and settles.
Your chest feels roomier.
Now,
Visualize the elder to step forward once more.
See how with their staff,
They trace a wide circle of light above you.
See it shimmer,
Then slowly descend until it rests around your whole body.
Feel this circle wrap around you like a mantle.
It seals the work that has been done.
It marks you as a whole,
Carried and renewed.
Now,
Visualize all the ancestors lift their hands together.
From each palm streams a radiant glow,
Fine as mist,
Golden as dawn.
Sense the light gather above you and drift down in waves.
Feel it touching your shoulders.
Your arms.
Your chest.
Your belly.
Every part of you receives this blessing.
Notice how the light moves into the very spaces that have been cleared.
Anywhere that blocks once were,
There is now openness.
Where tightness once held,
There is flow.
What felt hidden has been lifted,
Released into the fire and returned as light.
Feel the blessings seep beyond the surface.
Every part of you now carries strength.
Every part of you that once felt closed now feels free.
See the elder smile with their eyes and place a hand above your chest.
Feel the connection,
The warmth spread through you.
It is infinite and steady.
Around the circle,
Hear the whispers rise.
Waves of intention,
Healing,
Freedom,
Protection and belonging.
Let yourself receive this fully.
The hidden blocks are gone.
The blessings are alive.
Now see how,
Slowly,
The circle begins to fade into the firelight.
The energy of the ancestors remain with you,
Yet their shapes grow softer,
Merging with the glow.
Sense their steady and protective presence surround you more quietly now,
Like air,
Like the night.
The fire lowers,
Its flames shrinking into a steady bed of embers.
Each ember glows with the memory of all that has been released,
All that has been returned as light.
Feel the warmth of it linger in your chest,
Your belly,
Your whole body.
Above,
The stars shine clear and countless.
Sparks drift upward still,
Joining them.
The circle,
The staff,
The heart stone.
Everything settles now into you.
Everything is connected.
The blessings have been given.
The healing is complete.
Feel your body resting heavier and deeper,
Truly grounded.
Muscles loose and your breath easy.
The weight of you is fully supported.
And so,
Drift with this comfort.
Drift with this peace.
You are safe in the care of your ancestors.
You are carried by their love.
And you are free of what once blocked you.
You are filled with strength that will remain.
Let your beautiful eyes stay closed.
Let the thoughts fade away.
Allow the warmth in your chest to guide you into dreams.
Sleep now,
Held in light,
Surrounded in peace.
Blessed by the ones who walk beside you,
Always.
Good night.
