I am large.
I contain multitudes.
Walt Whitman.
Hey,
Hannah here,
And I welcome and acknowledge you for being here.
Today's meditation is all about embracing our rooted feminine.
You can listen to this meditation seated,
Lying down,
Or even going for a walk.
Tune in to what your body needs at this time.
If it's available to you,
Gently close your eyes and take a few deep breaths in and out.
Feel the support beneath you.
Allow yourself to relax into the present moment.
Let's start with a few rounds of four,
Seven,
Eight breaths as we activate safety in the body.
You're going to breathe in through your nose for a count of four,
Hold at the top for a count of seven,
And exhale out your mouth,
Making the sound for a count of eight.
Inhaling through your nose for four,
Three,
Two,
One,
Hold for seven,
Six,
Five,

Exhale eight,

One more deep belly breath in and your longest open mouth sigh,
Ah,
Letting go of any racing or negative thoughts that are not serving you right now.
Give yourself the gift of this moment.
Let's focus on the idea of multitudes within ourselves.
Imagine your strength and spirit as two intertwined energies,
Each enhancing the other.
Take a moment to consider the strength within you.
Picture yourself doing something powerful,
Feeling the energy in your muscles,
The stability in your stance.
This strength is not just physical,
But also mental and emotional.
It is this strength that allows you to face challenges,
To stand firm in your beliefs,
And to protect those you care about.
Feel the strength.
Send gratitude to your strength.
You are powerful.
Now shift your focus to the spirit within you.
Now shift your focus to the spirit within you.
Imagine yourself flowing like a river,
Moving gracefully and effortlessly.
This spirit is not about an easy life,
But about navigating life's currents with ease.
It is the ability to adapt,
To find joy in the moment,
And to create life from within.
Feel the spirit.
Send gratitude to your spirit.
You are full of ease.
Allow these two energies to coexist within you.
They do not compete.
They complement each other.
You can be both strong and graceful,
Powerful and gentle,
Competitive and compassionate.
Embrace these dualities as they make you beautiful and unique.
These multitudes,
When combined,
Represent your rooted,
Powerful feminine.
Bring your awareness to your feet.
Feel the ground beneath,
Solid and supportive.
Imagine roots extending from your feet into the earth,
Grounding you,
Providing stability and strength.
This rootedness allows you to stand tall and firm.
Take a few deep breaths.
Feel this connection to the earth.
Bring your awareness to your heart.
Feel the warmth and energy here,
The center of your spirit.
Imagine this energy radiating out,
Filling your entire being with light and love.
This is your inner light,
Your guiding force,
And your ability to nurture and create.
Take a few deep breaths and feel this warmth and light from within.
As you continue to breathe deeply,
Imagine these two energies,
Rooted strength and love.
Imagine the warmth and radiant spirit merging within,
Creating a balanced,
Powerful feminine essence that is both strong and spirited.
Remember,
You are not limited to one aspect of yourself.
You contain multitudes.
Take a moment to appreciate the beautiful complexity within you.
And remember,
You are strong,
You are spirited,
And you are capable of embracing all parts of you.
Gently floating both hands to rest on top of your heart.
Acknowledging the love,
The strength,
And spirit within.
And acknowledging all emotions and all experiences that you carry.
And all experiences that you carry.
Because all of you matters.
Gently inviting some deeper inhales,
Cleansing exhales,
Inviting some movement into your fingers and your toes.
As you come back to your space and surroundings.
And whenever you feel ready,
Gently floating your eyes open.
Sending love and peace.
