Hi everyone,
My name is Jessica and I am a meditation coach.
Today I'd like to take a few moments for all of us to bring in our inner balance so that we can face and do the outer work.
So I invite you all to get into a comfortable seat.
You can sit down or lie down however you feel is right for you.
And when you're ready,
I ask you to close your eyes if that feels right or have a soft gaze and bring the focus to the tip of your nose.
Settle into your body,
Allow your shoulders to drop away from your ears,
Your hands to rest where it feels comfortable,
Thighs next to you if you're lying down,
And feel the lower half of your body kind of sinking and dropping into the seat below you.
And whatever position you're in,
Allowing your spine to be nice and tall,
Both relaxed and alert.
Just natural breath in your own tempo.
And just checking in with how you're doing today in your body,
In your mental state,
And even in your emotions.
Just checking in with how you're doing.
Let us start bringing some balance through our body and our posture.
As you continue to check in with how you're doing,
Notice if your posture brings you balance.
Perhaps asking yourself what's needed to bring a little bit more symmetry in how you're showing up in your body.
Checking the left and right side,
If anything needs to be adjusted.
If anything needs to be adjusted.
Just gently checking in,
Allowing yourself to be seen,
To be heard and felt.
Now let us deepen this self-connection through our breath.
And as you breathe in,
Let us breathe in fully through our nose,
Holding on top before releasing and exhaling through our mouth.
One more time,
Breathing in fully through your nose,
Holding on top before releasing,
Loosening any tension in our bodies through the exhale.
Continuing to breathe deeply connecting,
Watching our breath come in and out through our bodies.
Now I invite you to bring your attention,
Your breath,
To the center of your body.
Now I invite you to bring your attention,
Your breath,
To the left-hand side of your whole body,
Starting with the top of your head.
So noticing the left-hand side of your head,
Of your head,
Your left eye,
Your whole left face.
Breathing into your left shoulders,
Your left arm,
All the way down to your left fingertips.
Breathing,
Relaxing your whole left torso,
Moving downwards into your left hip,
Your left glute,
Thighs,
Your left knee,
All the way down into your left ankle,
Down into your left foot,
Into the toes.
Breathing in softly,
In and out,
Through your whole left side.
From your left foot all the way up to the left crown.
Breathing in and out,
Allowing the breath to flow,
To release,
To clear away,
And to release.
Any body,
Mind,
Emotional blockages.
Just bring all awareness to the left-hand side of your whole body.
And just breathe here.
With one more breath,
Release.
Before shifting your focus now to the right-hand side of your body,
Starting with the right crown.
Bring the breath awareness to your right eye,
Your right ear,
To your right shoulder,
As you watch,
Relax,
Your whole right arm all the way down into your fingers,
The whole right side of your torso,
Into your right hip,
Your right glute,
Down your right thigh,
Into your right knee,
Down your whole leg,
Into your right foot,
And your right toes.
Allow the breath to be breathed in and out,
Allow the breath to be breathed and cycled throughout the right side of your body,
Allowing the air to be breathed through the right foot all the way up to the top of the head before cycling out,
Releasing,
Letting go,
And softening throughout the right side.
I invite you to once more see your body,
To see yourself as a whole,
Allowing the waves of your breath to breathe in and out through the whole balanced body.
And then with each breath in,
You can say out loud or to yourself,
I am balanced in my body.
And with each exhale,
You may say,
I am balanced in my mind.
You may say,
I am balanced in my mind.
Breathing in,
I am balanced in my body.
Breathing out,
I am balanced in my mind,
In my heart.
I am balanced.
I have balanced.
I am balanced.
And just notice how it feels to invite back in balance.
Let us take one nice breath.
In and out as we close our meditation.
I invite you to take all the time you need to gently return back to your body,
Wiggling your toes and fingers and stretching and moving and swaying in ways that feel good for you.
Opening your eyes to the outer world.
Taking it easy,
Taking it slow with balance.
I hope after this meditation,
You feel just a little bit more aligned in your body,
In your mind,
In your energy,
In your heart.
