Oftentimes for many of us we'll get this tug or this urge and maybe you can relate where your body or your spirit or even your subconscious is telling you that there must be more.
Whether that's with your family or career or your relationships,
Something deep inside of you is telling you it is time to grow.
It is time to expand.
It's time to ascend up the mountain and grow and leave parts of that life behind because you are progressing towards something greater.
Maybe it's time for you to accept another supernatural part of yourself and sometimes as individuals and it's just a part of being a human being where that fight-or-flight response from our amygdala pops up and it says danger,
Fear pops up,
Doubt pops up and it tells us no just stay where it's comfortable.
Don't expand.
That's scary.
But today I want you during this meditation to just open up.
Open up your heart.
Open up your mind.
Open up your spirit to what may be possible for you.
Things that you may need to attract that's supernatural.
Things maybe that's just awaiting for you to just say yes.
And so today we'll be doing a short expansion meditation and just want you to open your heart and your spirit to what may be possible in the road ahead for you,
Your life,
Yourself and all that you are meant to be.
So if you haven't already,
Preferably in this meditation,
Maybe taking a Shavasana pose which is in yoga the corpse pose,
Maybe just reclining or laying down on the floor,
Getting comfortable in your position and just gently beginning to just breathe in and out.
Just allowing the breath to be your anchor in this moment.
And as you continue to breathe,
Just softening the body and allowing the body to get heavy and rest against the cushion or the mat or the floor.
Inhaling deep and drawing the shoulders up to the earlobes.
And as you exhale out the mouth,
Just allowing your shoulders to roll down the spine.
Softening the jaw and the face.
Just allowing the eyes to rest between the brows.
You can have your eyes closed or maybe just a soft gaze right ahead of you.
As you continue to inhale and exhale,
Maybe placing the hands off to the side,
Both palms up,
Just signaling to the universe in this short practice that you are here to receive.
And when you're ready,
Drawing in a deep inhale through the nostrils,
Feeling your belly expand with air and a large sigh of exhale out the mouth.
Drawing in another deep breath in this moment through the nostrils and large sigh out the mouth.
Relaxing the face and the shoulders once again.
And this time just going within and just scanning the body from head to toe.
Just getting in touch with the body in this moment.
Getting in touch with how you feel physically,
Spiritually and emotionally.
And with both arms out to the side,
Just begin to open up.
Feel your heart opening.
Feel your throat opening.
Feel the space between the brows opening with every inhale.
Just feel the body opening up.
As you inhale,
Feel the air entering the body,
Nourishing the body.
And as it exits,
Feel it as it soothes the body as it exits out.
And as you inhale,
Just imagine that a bright light is entering into those spaces that you desire to open up.
With every inhale,
You're inviting that bright light in.
Maybe it's into the crown space.
And as you inhale,
Seeing that bright light pouring into the crown.
And with every inhale,
It gets larger and larger.
Inviting that light now down into the throat space.
Just feeling that light expanding into the body and growing.
As you move it from the throat now into the heart space,
Opening the heart up to this light and this energy.
This power and this radiance invited into your body with every inhale.
Feel it as it trickles down from your crown to the third eye to the throat now into the heart.
Going ahead and just moving it into the belly.
Seeing that bright light move down into the body.
Feeling its radiance.
Feeling it expanding with every inhale.
And now moving that bright light down below the belly button.
And as the belly expands with every inhale,
Imagine that bright light expanding,
Growing into these spaces.
Feeling your body up with energy.
And now moving that light down into the root of the spine.
The place that supports you.
The place that gives you stability and power.
Imagine expansion happening in all of these places.
And as you continue to breathe in and out,
Just imagine this light and this power circulating within the body.
Feel it move from head to toe.
Feel it nourishing the body.
As you continue to inhale,
Imagine this light getting bigger and bigger.
So much so that it's exploding out of your pores.
It's exploding into your aura.
You can feel it all around you.
You can sense it all around you.
And as you let it just wash all over you from crown to the soles of your feet,
Go within and just tell yourself that I am expanding.
I unapologetically accept this expansion.
I am radiant from the inside out and I am free.
Continue to say these things to yourself for the next moment.
Allowing it to just manifest within,
Feeling it within your body.
Letting that light illuminate and the words illuminate as you affirm yourself.
As you affirm your growth and expansion into what lies ahead for you.
And when you're ready,
You can come back into the body.
You can bring your awareness back into the room,
Back into the space.
Sensing any and all sounds around you.
Maybe moving the head from side to side.
Maybe wiggling the fingers and the toes.
Not losing sight of the energy and the light and the radiance that you've created.
But maybe turning to one side or the other.
Signaling to the universe that this is a rebirth for you.
That you're ready to receive what's next.
And when you're ready,
Pushing down onto the ground and coming up into a seated position.
And when you're ready,
Just gently blinking open the eyes.
Giving yourself thanks and gratitude for this practice today.
Thanks and gratitude for yourself.
And even further,
Thanks and gratitude for the opportunity to grow,
To expand,
To be the light,
To be radiant and free.
I am expanding.
I am radiant.
I am free.
You
