Hi there,
Welcome to this meditation to relieve depression and anxious thoughts.
Make sure you are in a comfortable position and you will not be disturbed for the duration of this session.
Bring your focus to your breath and really pay attention to how your lungs expand and contract when you inhale and exhale.
Let your breath flow however it wants to right now.
Notice your jaw and if you feel any tension here,
Just notice it.
Don't try to change anything.
Now breathe into the sensation in your jaw and as you exhale,
Allow it to release a little.
Inhale again.
Imagine that you are breathing in a new life and when you exhale,
Let all fears completely fade away.
Take another deep breath in and when you exhale,
Feel yourself let go of any worries.
Notice how relaxed you are becoming right now.
Let another breath come in naturally,
Imagining a bright future and as you let go,
Notice how depression eases and fades.
A gentle wave of relaxation sweeps over you as you breathe in and out.
Allow your breath to flow naturally now.
Let yourself feel calm and peaceful.
You deserve this wonderful feeling of serenity.
You are open now to receive new thoughts and you open up even more with each breath you take to kneel in fresh energy.
Notice how new ideas begin to present themselves to you.
Bring up feelings of abundance as you have much that your cup bores over for others to enjoy the abundance you have created.
Imagine that you are energized and have a zeal for life.
Even if this is not true of your present self,
Imagine it vividly and with as much detail as you can.
See yourself full of energy and optimism.
You can imagine it as if you are watching a movie of yourself if this helps.
But see the colors brightly and watch yourself full of ambition taking steps towards achievement.
For all this time,
Stay with your breath and allow your intentions to remain positive.
Even if you don't feel positive in this moment,
You can imagine what being joyful is like.
So be gentle with yourself and breathe into this joy you are creating and notice how you are consciously shifting any depressed or anxious thoughts right now into peaceful feelings instead by just following your breath.
Breathe deeply and let your exhale completely relax you.
Any thought that previously held you back becomes smaller and smaller.
Watch negative thoughts diminish little by little as if you are riding away in a car and these negative thoughts are sitting along the roadsides,
Shrinking into the distance as you ride away with ease.
And as you see them go,
You are free.
You are freed from their grip.
If you have any more negative thoughts arise,
Drop them off on the side of the road by any creative means that arises and rides away,
Watching them grow smaller until they are consumed by the horizon.
Allow yourself a few moments to simply be.
Notice and feel changes from this moment right now and the difference between how you felt before you began this meditation.
Turn your thoughts,
Find a new home within your inner being.
Now return your focus to your breath for a few moments and just breathe.
Now let's take a couple of deep breaths together before ending this meditation.
Go ahead and inhale deeply and exhale.
Let's do that again one more time.
Inhale deeply and exhale.
I hope that you feel better.
If not,
Keep on meditating,
Keep on being gentle of yourself and you'll feel better.
Now go ahead and bring your palms together to your heart and whenever you are ready,
Go ahead and open your eyes.
Thank you so much for meditating with me today.
My name is Zaha and I wish you a beautiful day of healing and joy.
Namaste.
