Welcoming you to this moment as we begin to drop in,
Asking yourself,
Where are you today?
Maybe checking in with both of your body and your mind to see,
Is there anywhere within us that needs just a little extra love and attention today?
So often there are situations,
External noise,
And tons of distractions in the world around us that puts an overcast on our internal light,
The light that we know is within us.
Maybe right away finding a soft smile,
Knowing that you have this gifted moment of time to tap back into the light that has always been on within you.
Knowing that through this practice,
We won't just send our loving light to the places within us that need it most,
But also using it as a way to connect to the world around us.
Starting with using our breath as the most intuitive and natural way to connect in with our bodies.
We can deepen here,
Lengthening your inhale in,
And then using your exhale to start clearing any dust away.
Another deep breath here,
Completely emptying out,
And on your next inhale,
Deepening even further into your belly and your chest.
And again,
Using that exhale to clear away the dust,
Noticing how that feels,
Maybe doing a couple more at your own pace.
On your exhales,
Allowing it to deepen into your body,
Maybe dropping your shoulders,
Finding any neck movements that feel safe for you,
Just wringing it all out here.
Noticing how that feels,
Allowing your breath now to return back to normal pace,
Deepening it as needed.
Now maybe turning a gentle awareness to your entire body,
Showing your body gratitude for all of the places that it's taken you and all of the places it will continue to bring you to.
Again,
Here,
Checking in with those places in your body or in your mind that need that extra love.
And this is where we can really begin tapping into our hearts,
Maybe envisioning this place in your body cracking open and allowing the love and light in your heart to flood this place with so much warmth and healing.
Continuing to breathe here,
All we are doing is drawing awareness to the powers within our heart that's always been there and using the stillness of this moment to really draw it all out and to use it as needed,
Knowing that this light is infinite and you can always come and pull from it anytime you need.
As we continue filling up our bodies,
Our joints,
Our mind and our muscles with this loving awareness,
Inviting you to next shift this awareness to your heart itself.
Having felt its power already and all your life,
Offering you to remember all of the goodness within you,
The love that you have for others,
The activities and the things that light you up inside,
The songs that make your heart soar,
And maybe even naming out loud what you love about yourself.
Really engaging with our heart muscle here,
Our heart memory,
And continuing to work to turn on that light and envisioning it becoming as bright as possible.
Continuing to remember your breath,
Inhaling here as you allow all this love and light to just soak completely through the entirety of your body.
Maybe it even gets so bright that you can see it expanding on the outside of your body,
Feeling a warm halo glow surrounding the room that you are in.
Continuing down this path,
Now inviting you to spread this awareness,
If it resonates with you,
To a more universal light source.
If your feet are planted on the ground,
Or maybe you feel your sits bones resting beneath you on a surface,
Ground down in these places,
And can you feel into the interconnectedness of the world around you,
All that it has to offer,
The infinite possibilities that there are to explore.
Maybe putting a hand on your heart as you feel into the truth of your love and recognize that the goodness that exists within you also exists in all of the hearts,
In the people of the universe,
And all the creatures in the world around you.
Can you allow your heart to open even more here?
Letting the floodgates open,
Feeling into this endless love and this endless light that's not only within you but completely surrounding you as well.
Maybe this resonates completely and you feel open and lit up,
Or maybe your door is a little bit sticky and you have trouble fully letting in this light.
Wherever you are,
Knowing that even in the darkest moments,
All you need is just one speck of light to serve as a reminder that there will never be complete darkness.
Offering you a word of scripture,
If that is not your chosen faith,
Feel free to just remain in this light that you've created.
John 1.
5 says,
The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it.
A reminder that the light always wins.
Matthew 5.
14 says,
You are the light of the world.
A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.
Even if the world tries to turn your light off,
It's simply impossible.
It's up to you to keep tapping into your heart,
To remember your light and let it guide you.
If your hand is still on your heart,
Maybe taking a couple more moments here to just simply breathe and let everything that you've created here today really sink in so deeply.
And if your eyes are closed,
Maybe gently batting them open,
Drawing your attention to any physical light that might be around you.
And if the room around you is dark,
And even if it's not,
Again,
Drawing your awareness to the light within you and letting that be what you continue to see today.
Noticing any shift and staying here for as long as you need.
You have found your light.
You can always find it again.
Sending you so much love and light wherever you are today and wherever it is that you will go.
Thank you.
