Only listen to this meditation when you are in a safe and comfortable place where you can totally focus and being fully present in the sound of my voice.
All right,
Gently bring yourself to a comfortable seated upright position.
Your back is straight,
Your hands gently resting on your lap,
Eyes closed.
Bring all your awareness to your breath and the sound of my voice.
Relax,
Let everything else fall away.
There is nowhere to go,
Nothing to fix.
Only this moment to enter fully.
Take a long,
Slow,
Deep breath in through your nose and now slowly exhale through your mouth.
Again,
A long,
Slow,
Deep breath in through your nose and now release it fully and completely.
And one final long,
Slow,
Deep breath in,
Filling your lungs with stillness and let it all go,
Releasing any stress,
Any tension.
Let the breath be your anchor,
Calm,
Steady,
Always present.
And now,
As I count down from seven to one,
With each number,
You'll relax more deeply and more completely.
With each number,
We'll focus on releasing and softening a part of the body,
Fully relaxing into this experience.
Seven relax the crown of your head.
Let it soften and open as if releasing any lingering tension into the sky.
Six relax your forehead and eyes,
But all the mental noise melt like ice into the sun.
Five relax your jaw and throat.
Release any unspoken thoughts or stuck words.
Let your voice rest.
Four relax your shoulders.
Let them drop.
Let the weight you've been carrying fall off your back.
Three relax your chest and heart space.
Let love in.
Let the armor go.
Two relax your stomach and hips.
Trust your center.
Let yourself be held.
And one relax your legs and feet.
Root into the earth.
Know you are supported.
You are here,
Fully present,
And completely safe.
Now,
Imagine yourself standing in the center of a vast open meadow.
The sky above is clear and limitless,
Like infinite potential.
The ground beneath you is solid,
Like your true self,
Rooted,
Strong,
And unshakable.
The air is still,
Calm,
And alive with possibility.
You look down at your feet,
And you see golden threads radiating outward from you in every direction.
Each thread represents a relationship to your thoughts,
Your body,
Your purpose,
Your past,
Your future,
Your dreams,
Your fears,
The people you love.
And even the people who challenge you.
You take a step forward,
And notice the threads shimmer and respond.
Everything is connected.
Every thought you think,
Every belief you hold,
Every action you take echoes through this intricate web of connection.
You begin to walk slowly through this meadow,
And with every step,
You approach a new thread.
First,
The thread of relationship to yourself.
Imagine standing face-to-face with a glowing version of you,
Your highest self.
What do you see in their eyes?
What do they say to you without words?
How do you respond?
Breathe into this moment.
You move forward toward another thread.
This one connects you to your body.
See your body standing before you.
Not the body you judge,
But the body that has carried you.
Healed you,
Protected you.
How do you relate to it now?
Do you speak to it with gratitude or criticism?
What would it feel like to relate to your body with reverence and love?
Now you approach another thread.
Your relationship to your thoughts.
See them swirling around you like clouds.
Some light and airy,
Others dense and stormy.
You are not your thoughts.
You are the observer of them.
What happens when you choose which clouds to give energy to?
Which ones do you allow to pass?
Now walk toward the thread of purpose.
There's a fire burning here.
Steady and bright.
It doesn't demand.
It invites.
It asks,
Are you listening?
What do you feel called to do?
Be express.
Let the fire speak to you.
Now approach the thread of your relationships with others.
See faces appear.
Loved ones,
Strangers.
Those who've hurt you and those who've helped you.
Each one has played a role in your becoming.
You don't need to fix them.
You don't need to carry them.
Just observe.
How do you show up in these relationships?
With truth.
With fear.
With love.
Now notice the final thread.
To life itself.
This one is glowing.
Pulsing like a heartbeat.
It's alive.
It is you.
This relationship is the most sacred.
Not a transaction,
But a partnership.
What if you stop trying to control life?
And started dancing with it.
Feel the rhythm.
Breathe it in.
You are in relationship with all of it.
Everything is a mirror.
Everything is a teacher.
Everything is relationship.
Now.
Imagine sense and feel.
That you are living as this awakened version of yourself.
You've cleared the filters.
You've reconnected the threads.
You are fully aware of how you show up in every relationship.
With yourself.
Others.
And life itself.
Now.
Vividly fill in the details of how this new you moves.
Speaks.
Relates and lives.
Feel it emotionally.
See it clearly.
Vividly fill in the details now.
While I am silent.
I don't really repeat after me.
I am the awareness.
Behind every relationship.
I choose to show up with presence.
Power and love.
I'm connected.
Grounded.
And awake.
I bring sacred attention.
To everything I touch.
Let these words ripple through your consciousness.
Through every cell.
Space between the cells.
And fully embody them.
Remembering.
You are always in relationship.
And how you show up.
Is everything.
Now.
Gently begin to bring your awareness back to this time.
The space.
And this body.
Feel the support beneath you.
Feel your breath.
Moving in and out.
Wiggle your fingers and your toes.
And when you're ready.
Gently open your eyes.
Put a smile on your face.
And welcome.
To your new life.
Life of relationship.
