Place a hand on your heart.
Maybe place the other hand on your belly if that feels good.
Take a couple of breaths.
Sigh through the mouth.
Exhale,
And say to yourself out loud or in your mind,
It's OK to let go.
It's OK to let go.
It's OK to relax.
It's OK to play.
It's OK to laugh.
It's OK to not know.
It's OK to not know.
It's OK to not know.
It's OK.
If you wish,
Continue to allow this gentle smile on your face.
You may wish to continue holding your body if that's feeling nourishing,
Or bring the hands into a relaxed position again on the lap,
Maybe with the palms facing upward.
Allow a slight space between the teeth.
Soften the muscles in the forehead and around the eyes.
The throat and shoulders soften.
With each breath,
Feel as if the space of your heart,
Your chest,
Is expanding a little more.
Allow that space to expand.
Allow that space below the heart center,
Down in the midsection,
The solar plexus,
To also feel like maybe it's expanding a little with each breath.
Manipura chakra,
This energetic center,
It is such an expression of our will,
Not will as in force and fight.
Will as in faith.
Will as in the embodiment of pure power,
Which is love itself.
Will as in I am here.
Feel the space of your belly softening.
The hips,
Legs,
And feet heavy.
Anchored,
So supported by Mother Earth.
Imagine the cosmos far above your head.
Infinite space filled with light.
The sparkling of stars and planets,
Galaxies.
How vast is this magnificent creation we live in?
How precious is it to experience this gift of life in the magnificence of this creation?
Slow your breathing down and deepen it.
With each inhalation,
Feel like you're welcoming life force.
With each exhalation,
Feel as if you're allowing yourself to be just as you are.
Maybe that's a feeling of softening in your body.
Maybe that's a feeling of accepting any emotions that might be here.
Or an experience of allowing the thoughts to pass.
Again,
Bring your awareness to the aliveness of the cosmos above you.
And of course,
Below you and all around you.
As you imagine the cosmos above your head,
See or feel this bright,
Bright sun of light.
So bright,
So radiant,
It's like 10,
000 suns.
The light of source.
The light of creation.
The light of consciousness.
Imagine,
Feel that from this sun of light,
There is this cascade of liquid light,
Liquid golden light that is pouring down like a pillar of light from this sun through the atmosphere,
The clouds,
All the way into the crown of your head.
This beautiful liquid golden light,
Cascades,
Filling your brain with light,
Illuminating every organ and gland.
This liquid light fills every tissue,
Muscle,
Bone and goes deeper.
This light loves you.
It is so full of radiance and love for you.
And it moves into every cell,
The genes,
The DNA,
Illuminating your entire physicality.
Liquid golden light in every chakra,
Every nadi,
Every meridian,
Every energetic component of you,
Filled with light.
Take a deep,
Full breath in and out.
And as you exhale,
Feel this light expanding beyond your physical body,
Illuminating your subtle bodies,
The energetic bodies around your physicality.
You are in this glowing sphere of light and also this pillar of light,
Still connected to this magnificent light far above your head.
This light is so full of warmth and love,
So full of love,
Love that we long for.
The moment we move into forgetfulness,
That we are love itself,
Which usually happens as infants or young children.
And we start to identify with this human experience and forget that we are the light of life itself.
This love that we long for is right here in this light,
Filling every fiber of your being.
Feel it wrapping around you like the hug that you long for.
The care,
The acknowledgement,
The connection.
Feel yourself being filled with this love.
And if you can't feel it,
That's okay.
Imagine or use your thoughts to think,
I'm filled with love in this moment.
I open myself to love.
I open myself to receive love.
I open myself to give love.
I allow myself to be loved,
To know the love I am in this moment.
Feel your heart enveloped in the warmth of love.
And just allow your heart to be washed by this love.
Any pains you're holding onto,
Resentment,
Anger,
Unforgiveness,
Sadness,
Fear,
Allow it to all be washed in this love.
You are so precious,
So precious,
And so loved,
Loved beyond your imagination.
Breathe deeply.
Allow whatever is moving inside of you to be nourished by the breath.
Soften your body.
And if at any point you feel to hold your heart with your hands or even wrap your arms around your body in a hug,
I invite you to do this.
Express love to yourself now.
Hold yourself in love.
Give yourself the grace and the acceptance to be just as you are.
Messy,
Beautiful,
Exquisite,
Light experiencing the messiness of humanness.
The light isn't messy,
The humanness is though.
So can you just wrap all of it,
Welcome all of it in this love.
Welcome all of you.
And now welcome your light even more.
This magnificent light,
This love,
It is you.
So welcome your light with love.
Welcome your light with joy.
Welcome your light with passion.
Oh my beloved light,
Fill me with your radiance.
My beloved light,
Fill me with your love so I may know I am loved and I am love.
My precious light,
Fill me with your light so I may remember who I am.
Oh my light,
I love you.
I love you.
Fill every fiber of my being with you,
My precious light.
Fill me with you.
Offer your gratitude to this light.
And although we're thinking of this light as something outside of us,
This light is you.
It is who you are.
We've just forgotten.
Feel this light of the self expanded within you,
Around you,
Pouring through your physical body,
Out through the soles of your feet,
Down through the layers of the earth,
Into the crystalline core of Mother Earth.
This earth is a goddess,
Matagaya.
She is so alive and always giving to us.
Welcome the love of the earth and feel her infinite generosity,
Care and compassion for us in the human experience.
The boundless love of Mother.
Breathe in from the crystalline core of Mother Earth all the way up through the layers of the earth.
Welcome all of this love,
Nurturing,
Strength,
Caring,
And all of these qualities of Mother Earth.
Welcome them back up through your feet,
Filling your entire body.
We are anchored in the love of the Mother and the light of Source.
We'll spend the next few minutes in silence together.
If you find that the mind wanders,
That's perfectly okay.
You may wish to use the anchor for the mind of sensing the breath as it flows in and out.
Maybe you wish to bathe in this love and just imagine your heart is pulsating with love.
You may wish to simply use a mantra or the affirmation I am light to guide your mind back should it wander.
Take a slow deep breath in.
Exhale fully.
Feel or imagine your entire being vibrating,
Pulsating with light.
If you wish to stay in this space of silence and stillness longer,
I invite you to do so.
If you're feeling ready to move forward in your night or day,
Slowly begin to move the fingers and the toes.
Maybe gently rub the fingers on the thumbs,
Feeling the aliveness of sensation here.
When you're ready,
Start to move the body in other ways as you welcome your awareness back to the body and back to the space that you're in.
You may wish to inhale and reach the arms all the way up and then exhale,
Release the arms down.
Take as long as you need to slowly open the eyes.
