Welcome to this thought form workshop guided meditation,
Knowing what you want.
Because each of us is an individual expression of the creative source,
What we want for ourselves is also an expression of what that source seeks to create through us.
As many spiritual teachers have observed,
Each of us is like an individual wave on the ocean of consciousness,
And at the same time,
We are that ocean itself.
Thought forms that arise as desires from our very souls are the natural self-expression of the ocean.
Those that arise out of ego,
Such as fame,
Status,
Or possessions,
Instead seek to contain or define the wave in some way,
And will be much more difficult to manifest because they are out of alignment with our true nature.
This meditation will help you identify what your soul,
Your higher self,
Truly wants to manifest for you and through you.
Make yourself very comfortable,
Either seated or lying down,
In a position that maintains a straight spine.
If you are seated in a chair,
Have your feet flat on the floor.
Close your eyes.
Modiously relax your shoulders away from your ears.
Relax your jaw.
Relax the muscles of your face.
Visualize the distance between your eyes.
Let any unnecessary thoughts ripple away into the distance until they eventually disappear.
Notice the movement of your breath,
The expansion and contraction of your rib cage,
The gentle inflation and deflation of the low belly.
Notice the pause between your exhale and inhale.
That pause is your pure potential to create.
Notice the pause between your inhale and your exhale.
That pause is the release that creates space for something new to arise.
Simply watch your breath as it swells,
Crests and then falls away like the passing of a wave.
The rising and falling waves begin to create sound.
You hear the soft,
Pulsing roar of surf somewhere in the distance.
The waves crashing onto a beach.
Now notice yourself being transported to that beach.
The sound of the waves grows louder.
Louder still.
And even louder until you notice that you're now standing on that beach.
Feel the sand grainy beneath your feet.
Warm waves lapping at your toes.
Hear the shimmer of pebbles tumbling over each other as each wave proceeds.
Gaze out into the infinite sea all the way to where it disappears into the horizon.
Notice the patterns of light and waves rippling on the surface.
Soon you notice that one wave stands out and is not like the others.
In fact,
It's not a wave at all,
But a figure moving directly toward you.
As it approaches,
You begin to discern a shape,
Something that's coming more and more clearly into view.
This shape is your higher self,
A representation of your true nature.
It is you in an energetic form.
Your higher self may present to you as a human figure,
As an animal,
An animated shape,
Or perhaps in some other form.
Whatever form your higher self takes is the perfect expression of you to yourself in this moment.
Welcome your higher self and invite it to join you at the water's edge.
There's no need to speak.
You can easily communicate with your higher self telepathically using words,
Images,
Symbols,
Or simply a sense of pure knowing.
Send your higher self an expression of sincere gratitude for joining you.
If possible,
You may wish to give it a warm embrace.
Gaze at your higher self with the highest love and appreciation and see those same things reflected back to you.
Right now,
Ask your higher self to tell you what it would like for you.
Ask it to share and confirm with you the one thing right now that you wish to manifest with all your heart.
Clear your mind and be still as you wait for an answer to arise.
It may arise as a phrase,
As an image,
A song,
A symbol,
Or in some other form that is meaningful to you.
Trust that you will know it when it comes into your awareness.
Now,
Ask your higher self to confirm to you that this is,
In fact,
The very thought form you want to manifest at this time.
Notice any emotions that have arisen in connection with your desired thought form.
Things of profound joy,
Laughter,
Contentment,
And love are all excellent indicators that you and your higher self are in agreement.
Or if what has arisen presents you with a new challenge,
You may feel concurrent sensations of anxiety or fear.
If so,
Simply know that these may indicate a powerful new opportunity for growth.
Avoid judging or evaluating whatever arises.
It is enough merely to notice.
Trust that your higher self will always be there for you,
Behind the scenes,
To guide you.
Offer profound thanks to your higher self for assisting you.
Express your love for yourself in whatever way is meaningful,
Perhaps with an embrace.
Now watch your higher self as it departs,
Turning back to the sea,
Where it merges with and disappears into the waves.
Return your awareness to your breath.
Your breath is happening in this space.
This space is happening in your breath.
You are this space,
Unrestricted,
Unlimited,
Pure potential,
A divine being,
A child of the infinite.
If you have fallen asleep,
You may rest in sleep as your subconscious takes note of the thought form you and your higher self wish to manifest for you.
If you would like to begin to wake up,
Begin to deepen your breath.
Allow tiny movements to come into your fingers and toes.
At the sound of the bell,
You may open your eyes.
In love,
This is Rishika.
Namaste.
