Deep Relaxation: Recharge And Restore

This meditation is designed to help you when you feel depleted. It will help to reconnect to you to your lifeforce energy, and can be done sitting upright or laying down comfortably. This is a live recorded meditation during an Ajna light meditation class at Sagehouse, in August this year. It can still be enjoyed without an ajna light lamp.

Transcript

Today,

We'll be meditating on replenishing energy,

Restoring,

Recharging,

Bringing our physical,

Mental,

And emotional bodies to a place of relaxed alertness,

Being present and aware and conscious,

But at the same time in a place of deep rest.

Allow your hands to come to prayer and friction your hands,

Building heat.

Feel the heat between the palm centers,

Between the fingertips and the finger pads.

Continue frictioning,

Creating soft,

Gentle warmth for the next 30 seconds.

Come to a stop and bring your palms towards your face,

Cup your eyes,

And feel the heat of your palms.

Allow the heat to soften your head,

To soften the wrinkles on your brow,

The tension in your eyes,

And then intuitively allow the fingers to circle to massage the outer corners of the eyes at the temples,

Massaging the forehead,

Down to the bridge of the nose,

Into the cheekbones,

The jawline,

The hinge of the jaw,

The mustache line,

The goatee area,

Anywhere that feels a bit stuck.

You can even go behind the ears,

Pulling at the lobes of the ears,

And using your hands to massage the back of the neck,

The sides of the neck,

And the front of the throat.

You can run your fingers through your hairline as if you're massaging your scalp or shampooing your head,

Bringing a sense of aliveness into your head.

When you feel that you've awakened your face,

Your entire skull,

Place your left hand over the heart center,

Followed by the right to create a small letter X.

On the inhale,

Feel the energy in your palms,

Rejuvenating the heart,

Creating space in the heart.

On the exhale,

Ground your energy downwards through your bones into the earth.

As the light turns on,

Allow the light to move into the third eye.

From the third eye,

It will move downwards through your throat and into the heart center.

Keep breathing,

Deep breath in,

Feeling the breath expand through the ribs.

Exhale,

Grounding the bones,

Feeling a heaviness and a lightness all at the same time.

Exhale,

Grounding the bones,

Feeling a heaviness and a lightness all at the same time.

Allow the body to move in a soft rock,

Rocking forwards and backwards.

The speed of the rock can be as quick or as slow as makes sense.

Allow this rock to comfort,

To soothe your nervous system,

Allowing the sounds and the light to wash a wave of softness all over you.

The warmth of the hands reflecting the warmth of the heart.

As you watch this reflection,

Create more space.

Create more space inside and outside.

Whatever fogginess or confusion that you may have come in with,

Let that be.

Let that go with the exhale.

Fatigue,

Tiredness,

All of that,

Let it go.

All that you have space for here,

Right here,

Right now is lightness,

Groundedness,

And expansive heart space.

Connect to the energy in your hands,

The ever expanding energy of the heart and of love and of compassion.

And let all other things go.

Enjoy your minutes.

Bring your awareness to any point in the physical body that might be tired.

Maybe the lower back feels tired,

Or the hands,

Or the arms.

Whatever physical body part you are focusing on,

Use the breath to infuse those areas with energy.

Infuse it with life force,

With love,

With expansion.

And feel that expansiveness with your entire body,

With every cell of your being.

Not just with your thoughts,

But with your presence.

Feel every single vibration,

Every sensation.

As you feel more,

Your consciousness,

Your awareness becomes more encompassing,

More inclusive.

Feel the ever-expanding nature of your consciousness,

And how each of our consciousnesses right now in this room is linked to one another and to the greater whole.

And through this connection,

We rest,

We restore,

We replenish all of our energy reserves.

Because energy is unlimited,

It is infinite.

Energy is all around us,

Waiting to be accessed.

And it is our birthright to connect to this energy.

Feel the light entering the brow,

Illuminating the head,

Illuminating the heart,

Illuminating the entire body,

The center of our being,

And any other spaces that need illuminating.

Very slowly,

Removing the hands from the heart center into a namaste shape,

The palms touching one another.

Form a globe shape with your hands,

Like you're holding a ball of light.

And imagine as the ajna light is entering your brow,

It is also entering into the space between your hands.

And ever so slowly,

For the duration of this song,

Our hands will gradually open apart,

Feeling the magnetism between the hands and the fingers.

Slowly the skin will separate from one another,

And with each breath,

Our hands will become farther apart.

But we will still feel this energy that we are holding,

That we are molding and creating.

You may visualize a color,

Might make this energy you're holding into a particular shape that's spherical or something else.

Make this energy more expansive,

Bigger,

More inclusive,

Slowly,

No rush.

Use the breath each time you inhale,

Feel the hands separate more.

On the exhale,

Again,

Find that grounding feeling through your bones,

The feeling of connection to the earth.

As this energy expands between the hands,

Feel it expanding inside as well.

In the organs,

All the vital organs,

In the intestines,

The liver,

The spleen,

The kidneys,

The adrenals,

The pancreas,

The stomach,

Feel the heart and the lungs expanding.

Feel the legs growing,

The neck,

The brain,

The spaces between the ears,

The skin,

Everything expanding.

With each inhale,

Allow this energy to widen even more.

Bigger and bigger.

There's no limit to how expansive we can become.

If the hands intuitively start to move and create shapes,

Allow it.

Allow it to sculpt the spaces in between to sculpt the energy at play.

And it is exactly that.

It is a play.

It is a play of energy.

The energy is thick or it is soft or it's liquid or it's thin like air.

Whatever it is,

Play with it.

Let it move with your fingers like you're touching something as real as your shirt.

Feel it.

Caress it.

Embody it.

Embody it.

Ever so slowly,

Bring the hands closer and closer to one another with each exhale.

Take your time,

Containing that energy inwards between the palm centers.

When your hands unite and touch,

Feel it.

Feel it even more deeply than you felt it before.

And bring it inwards into some part of you that needs healing.

And place that ball of light there.

Place it somewhere,

You know where.

And wherever you've decided to place it is where it needs to be.

Allow this ball of light to expand into this space and to bring clarity,

To bring replenishment into your organs or perhaps your joints.

Wherever you've decided.

And allow it to do its work.

Watch it.

Don't resist it.

Allow this deep healing to happen with your imagination,

With your breath.

If the body so moves and you feel it is moving on its own accord,

Allow it.

Let it be.

Let it go.

There's no right,

There's no wrong.

It is what it is.

So let it be.

We're connecting to our essence.

And our essence is vibration.

And that vibration is love.

Feel love moving through every single cell.

This is what it's like to be relaxed and to be alert at the same time.

It is in the spirit of love that we can enter into this space,

This state,

This expression of life.

Feel that expression and express,

Express it.

Allow the body to move.

Allow the hands to move.

The head,

The spine,

The neck,

The shoulders,

The fingers,

The feet.

What does the body have to say?

What does the body have to feel?

Whatever it's saying and whatever it's feeling,

Whatever it's expressing,

Will it eventually,

After the expression is done,

Allow us to simply be?

Once it's said it's peace,

Once it's expressed what needs to be expressed,

Voiced what was unvoiced,

Will we simply be?

Is it possible?

The energy that you're playing with in your hands,

Now imagine it all around you.

That there are giant cosmic hands surrounding you,

Your physical self holding you.

And you are the energy,

The ball of light.

And these hands are molding and sculpting you.

And you are held.

And you are being played with and played to.

And there's not a care in the world.

You're just flowing,

Moving wherever you're being guided to.

So all of your doubts,

Your stresses,

Your worries,

They fade because we are being cared for by the universe,

By the stars.

Connect to starlight,

To the moon,

To the sun,

To the planets and feel the essence of the universe coming down into you,

Crystallizing in you,

All that energy present in you,

Alive,

Electric in you.

And this is really you.

This energy.

Everything else is not.

And this is really you.

This is really you.

This is really you.

This is really you.

This is really you.

This is really you.

This is really you.

This is really you.

Make a deep breath in through the nose.

Exhale,

Sigh through the mouth.

Inhale through the nose.

Exhale,

Sigh through the mouth.

Expand your arms outwards like you're tracing a big circle.

Tracing from the bottom edges of the circle upwards until your arms are all the way overhead.

And once the fingertips join together,

Press the palms down right in front of the face,

Then down past the neck,

The heart,

The belly,

The hips.

Bring the palms out again.

Inhale,

Circle the arms overhead like you're collecting stardust.

And then exhale,

Bring that stardust down through the head,

The neck,

The heart,

The belly,

The legs.

Inhale,

Circle.

Big,

Expansive,

Inclusive circling.

Exhale,

Carry that energy down with the exhalation.

Continue doing this on your own with the breath,

Enforcing this sphere of light all around us.

We know this energy as chi or ki or prana.

It's life force.

It's universal.

It's all around us.

It is abundant.

It is limitless.

Connect to that energy and bring it in.

Bring it within us.

Your circles can be as fast or as slow as makes sense.

Just as we bathe and shower,

This is the same process.

We're bathing ourselves in light,

In lightness.

Last few times here.

Even in the darkness,

When the light goes off,

Continue to feel three more.

Use the darkness to ground.

Two more.

Last time,

Inhale.

Once you're finished,

Place your hands on your knees,

Palms facing down.

Take a moment to pause and feel the echo of all that just happened.

Observing the ripples.

And then whenever you're ready in your own time,

You may open your eyes.
