Meditation for opening to receiving life and love.
It is so often that I observe in myself and in my clients and people around this inability to truly receive the blessings of life.
Despite how hard we often try to create our dream life,
When life actually provides,
It can be a challenge to fully receive.
So this meditation is going to take you into contemplative questions to which you'll receive your own answers as to how you can receive life deeper.
Begin by finding a comfortable position,
Either seated with your feet grounded or laying down with your body fully supported.
Close your eyes and take a slow,
Deep breath in and then exhale fully.
Feel the air moving through you,
Nourishing you.
Feel the ground beneath you,
Holding you.
Let your body soften and open,
As if welcoming life itself.
Now bring your awareness to the concept of receiving.
Breathe in and feel life moving towards you.
Breathe out and allow yourself to surrender into its embrace.
We are going to contemplate this first question which is what does receiving life mean for me?
Take a pause and allow the answer to arise naturally,
Without force.
What does receiving life mean for me?
Now gently ask yourself how do I block receiving life?
Do you resist support?
Struggle to trust?
Hold tension in your body?
Simply notice,
Without judgement,
How you may close yourself off from life's nourishment.
How do I block receiving life?
Breathe in awareness and breathe out any resistance.
And,
Finally,
Ask how can I open more to receiving life and love?
Let your heart soften as you listen.
Perhaps it's through trust,
Gratitude,
Slowing down.
Whatever comes,
Welcome it with an open heart.
Breathe in possibility and breathe out into openness.
As this meditation comes to a close,
Take one more deep breath.
Feel life flowing in and through you.
Feel your readiness,
Even if only slightly,
To receive life with more ease,
Beauty and love.
When you're ready,
Gently open your eyes and may you move into your day open,
Receptive and nourished by life.
