We will now begin a cord cutting meditation audio.
Find a comfortable seat reclined or seating upright and just take a deep breath in and exhale let your shoulders sink down and back and take a moment to notice where your feet either meet contact with where you're being held or sitting or reclined feel the support beneath you and notice the bottoms of your feet notice your sits bones bringing your hands over your heart space take a deep breath in and visualize the center of your heart taking in the information of how you're feeling today in this moment and we'll take a moment to ground down so from the base of your spine imagine just your intention is perfect connecting deep down into the center of earth this cord goes down through the expected layers of earth and connecting into the center of earth where it is warm happy you may even feel a very loving presence you may feel as you click into place a sense of grounding and intend to expand this cord wider and wider like roots of a tree trunk roots of a tree and as wide as a tree trunk expanding out around your legs and up into your hips and feel as earth sends her support up through this channel stabilizing you here in this body here in this moment now feel sense or see from above your head about eight inches above your head just bringing your attention your conscious awareness there you may feel some sensations now feel sense see and intend as above your head is a light this light expands and it trickles outwards down over your entire head and then around your head and over your shoulders going down and around your body and even below your hips and below your feet so that you are in a bubble of light and now we call in your higher light feel sense see or just intend that you are connecting with your higher light and you may feel or see your experience about 300 feet above you like a gateway of light just opening and pouring down like a ray of sun streaming down over the crown of your head into your head into your throat out through your heart down your arms into your hands and now every finger this light moves down into your chest going along the back body as well and into your abdomen and into your hips and this light continues down through that pillar into earth and this light is connecting you from above and below now returning back to focusing on your heart space light within your heart space even if it feels heavy right now just your intention of bringing and cultivating a subtlety of love is possible you may even try to expand it just with your intention and feel as that love from your heart space expands outwards until it is radiating around your entire body and take a moment take a take a deep breath in and if there's any places in your field that need extra love or energy maybe try directing the light or expanding your awareness into those spaces maybe you try to see if you can soften your body any places that have tension sometimes even physical touch with your hands on a space in your body can help to relieve and soften creating more space to be held now before we begin the visualization process of cord cutting take a moment to just truly be here with yourself now in this place of peace and if feelings or emotions or sadness or grief or anything is coming up it is perfectly okay and perhaps give yourself permission to allow the release to allow yourself to feel completely surrounded in your higher light and the truth is you are made of love you are love and as we start this visualization first begin with bringing gratitude for yourself right here and now and maybe bringing your hands back over your heart if they're not already there and say thank you thank you to this version of yourself that has brought you here and now thank you to yourself for choosing to do this practice today to nourish yourself in so much love and today we'll also bring in the ho'oponopono prayer it's a hawaiian prayer and in english translated it's i am sorry i forgive you i thank you and what's beautiful about this prayer is it can be said anytime and oftentimes even if the person that we call in today for cord cutting if there's a specific person or if there are many this is going to be a very grounding and powerful prayer because what it does is it honors that every person is a piece of god and oftentimes in dynamics that have hurt us we too have played a part and often we too need the self-forgiveness so please take a moment if you feel called repeat aloud to yourself to any parts of you or to any feelings whether or not they are conscious or knowing if you're able to speak this out loud it's so powerful but if you must do it within repeat i am sorry i forgive you i thank you and if you're working with a specific part today you may even have them repeat it back even just the intention or even repeating it aloud again i'm sorry i forgive you i thank you i love you now as for the cord cutting we will now envision being in a crystalline room made of white quartz and crystal and you're surrounded in this beautiful room that is pure and light and you see before you there is a pillow a silk pillow and you go and walk over and sit down upon the pillow and across from you is this other pillow and you are in a dynamic that you would like to shift today you may call upon their higher self just by intending and saying i now call upon the higher of and you speak their full name and if you're feeling a little bit concerned or worried or overthinking just know that your guides are behind you and you may feel us we're offering you extra support and love and in guides there also may be animals beside you perhaps a pet or someone that's comforting as a pillar of reminding you that you got this and that you're safe now this person that you've called forth you see a lighter version of them and they have a greater peace within them walk towards you and they sit upon this pillow and they are neutral in energy and just take a moment even if you are able to visualize this or not to just notice what you feel or see or sense as this presence is sitting across from you now we'll take a moment for this person to share whatever it is that they are ready or willing to share and now if you have any words that you would like to speak to them either aloud if you are in a space where you're able to do so or within directly to them sharing what is on your heart or mind and whatever you need to say to them and if you need more time here you're welcome to pause this now if there's anything else that needs to be said feel free to share and stay here as long as you would like now intend and visualize or just feel into your body where are their energetic cords tethered with this person and there also may be others as well but if you're focusing on a single person in this meditation just do one at a time do you feel something in your heart and where is it corded to them is it in the sacred chakra if you were in a romantic partnership with them and were intimate is it an intellectual and is it connected in the mind just taking a moment to notice where these cords are and maybe even notice how wide or how thin or how strong they appear to be or feel you may notice in your body where there is an energetic exchange maybe there was a benefit for you where you were receiving energy from them or maybe there is a benefit for them where they were receiving energy from you it's important to acknowledge that in life we all are benefiting in connections and relationships and there is an exchange in energy and oftentimes during the growth and the changes in our lives people come in and out of our life there's the saying you know someone may be there for a season or they're there for life and acknowledging whatever the truth is for you in this situation and sometimes that's a hard truth to face but as long as and as much as we can are able to to honor this connection and to also honor it in neutrality and in gratitude for what this connection has taught you for the growth and for the time spent with each other it's a really beautiful honoring and ritual that we can bring to our lives as we choose to move on or disconnect or to upgrade our relationships with people so take a moment take a moment of gratitude even if this was a person that was a teacher in the form of many challenges for you what did you learn?
Did you learn that you were capable or stronger than you thought?
Did you learn boundaries?
Did you learn how to stand in your own truth?
From this place of gratitude,
From this place of honoring,
Is where we can then begin the process of letting go in love and again if you need to pause this meditation feel free to but when you are ready we'll now begin the disconnection process visualize now beside you are a pair of golden scissors they are very sharp and they are very strong and when you receive the cord,
Place it in your hand and place the scissors in your hand and while holding the cord that's connected with this person say thank you and honor them and honor yourself and the version of you that created this connection because it was mutually beneficial and whenever you are ready take those scissors and cut the cord you may feel as your energy draws back into your body and set and intend that your their energy returns back to them and you may even need to speak this out loud where you acknowledge this person's energy within yours and you can say i see you you are no longer welcome here you must leave and return home and if you need to even touch the physical body where that cord was felt or where you you had felt these sensations of energy you know in this exchange or even being you know drained you know bring your hand over to that space and again calling all parts of you home and you may even speak your name three times your full name i call you home speak your name i call you home speak your name i am here now and you may feel sensations or even just the lightness or vibrations of these pieces and bits and parts of you that have been wandering with others in other dimensions and other times and even in the dream realms if there are more cords repeat this process we'll do one more and then we will close this guided meditation and you are welcome to revisit this as much as you need now feel sense or see if there is another cord energetic cord with this person in this dynamic you have the scissors in your hand and in your other hand gently hold into the cord and when you're ready taking a deep breath in cut the last cord and again you may feel an instant return of your energy and just your intention of returning yours and directing theirs back again saying thank you and honoring it with love now to complete this meditation and again feel sense and see the other person before you and this time they speak the prayer to you i am sorry please forgive me i thank you and if you feel calm to speak it as well to them i'm sorry you hear them say i forgive you now feel sense and see a pillar of light going above this other person and above yourself at the same time hitting the crown chakras the tops of your head this light moves down like a pillar of light moving down into both of your beings you may feel as any residue any energies any static any densities are immediately just dissolved and rising upwards anything conscious or unconscious anything left unsaid all that your soul is ready to release in this moment and you may even state the loud or within i release this all now and it goes up back to source and what is yours will return back to you cleansed and returning back to you through your crown chakra and now this person in so much peace stands up honors you with a little nod and a bow and turns and walks into the light now take a deep breath honoring your sacred process and it's perfectly okay again if any emotions or tears are coming up and also acknowledging that it is completely okay to grieve the connections that we've had and the attachments that we've experienced for so long those dynamics have carried you and what's so beautiful about your today is that you're being guided and led and you know deep within your heart that you're ready to shift and reclaim more of you today and that is what you have done again bringing your hands over to your heart and give yourself that note of gratitude thank you and now we will now connect disconnect from the higher light thanking it knowing that it's always there for you and then disconnecting the roots with earth allowing anything from this session that's ready to be composted go down the cord to earth and then the roots go along with it it's now you are back in your body and to bring movement and coming back into your body coming back into this space bring movement into your toes maybe wiggling your fingers and taking as long as you need when you're ready opening your eyes coming back into this space and being so gentle with yourself and move along through your beautiful day
