When clarity hasn't arrived, this meditation offers a breath of space. You don't need for force answers or be certain of the way forward. You are held, even in the in-between. Let the now knowing be sacred. Give yourself time.

Hi love,

I'm so glad you're here.

If you're carrying questions without answers,

If you're in the in-between,

If you're tired of trying to figure it all out,

This moment is for you.

Let's begin with a breath in through the nose,

Out through the mouth with a sigh,

Let your body soften just a little.

You don't have to solve anything right now.

Again,

Inhale and exhale.

There is such pressure to know,

To decide,

To be certain,

To map it all out.

But the truth is,

Uncertainty is a sacred space,

Not a failure,

Not a problem to fix,

But a doorway,

A cocoon,

A pause between chapters.

What if not knowing could be holy?

What if your pause is not a detour,

But a part of the design?

Let's check in with your body.

Where do you feel the urge to grasp,

To tighten?

To reach for clarity like a life raft?

Place your hand there if it feels good,

Or simply bring breath into that space.

You do not have to rush toward answers.

You are allowed to be in process.

You are allowed to rest in the unknown.

You are still becoming,

Still worthy,

Still whole.

Let's close with this affirmation,

I release the need to have it all figured out.

I trust the unfolding.

I give myself full permission to not know.

Let that truth settle into your belly.

Feel your shoulders ease.

Let your next breath be one of surrender.

Not to giving up,

But to letting life lead for a little while.

The knowing will come when it's time,

And you are safe in the space before.
