Welcome,
Welcome,
Welcome.
This guided meditation is just going to invite you to embrace the human journey.
Maybe we can open up to the possibility that life is a great adventure of learning,
Growing,
And playing.
Let's settle in and get a little bit cozy.
We're going to invite a relaxation in all the corners of our mind and in all the tips of our body.
And let's just sink into that relaxation.
It's also like recognizing there's a profound permission to just relax.
We're going to take three deep breaths,
And with each breath,
We're just going to become a little bit more present and a little bit more relaxed.
Let's breathe.
We have a great opportunity in this life to learn,
To expand our awareness about ourselves,
About others,
And about life as a whole.
And beautifully so,
Within every human being is a genuine interest,
An authentic curiosity.
In this,
Sincerity,
In the most direct way,
Points toward your path of learning.
This is quite beautiful.
It's already set up.
You already know what you're interested in.
If you look,
You already know what you're here to learn.
The question is,
Can we acknowledge that?
Naturally,
This is going to invite you to surrender what it is you think you're supposed to learn,
What other people want you to learn,
And get back in touch with the sincerity of your own humanness,
Your own heart.
Let's breathe into that.
Let's open up to a deeper realization of what that sincerity might be,
Inviting ourselves to come home and connect with whatever is authentic,
Whatever's real,
Whatever's true.
Let's breathe.
The next part of this adventure is growing,
Another beautiful opportunity that comes with being human.
And part of that adventure,
What is required,
Is that we face our fears and move a little bit beyond our comfort zone.
This is growth.
Has this not been the case every time?
It's a beautiful thing to not resist this fear,
To not think that it's wrong,
To not think that you shouldn't be afraid.
It's simply part of the adventure.
Isn't it interesting?
The more you resist fear,
The more you think it's wrong,
The bigger the fear becomes.
It's beautifully sweet,
And it's beautifully sincere.
If you're scared,
You're scared.
That's okay.
And we discover a space that doesn't fight the fear,
That doesn't hide from the fear,
But maybe simply recognize that this fear is pointing to our next opportunity of growth.
Maybe it's pointing the way towards our next big and beautiful adventure.
An adventure where you will continue to learn and grow doesn't mean you're going to get what you think you want.
It's just another part of the process of your human journey.
It's important to recognize,
My friend,
We're not growing so that we reach a destination.
We're growing for the sake of growing.
We're discovering more about ourselves and about life.
And this is what makes it all worthwhile.
Part three is the playing.
I'm willing to bet that there's something within you that knows this life is about play,
That knows you're here to discover,
To experience new and different aspects of what you are,
New and different aspects about other people and about life.
You're here to discover something beautiful on the inside of what you are,
And then playfully share that beauty with the world.
Come on now.
This is a temporary play.
It's temporary.
So easy it is to understandably get lost in the seriousness,
Thinking the points in the game are real.
But right now we have an opportunity to realize what's here and now beyond all that noise.
And to see that in this moment,
The life you're living now is an opportunity for you to play.
And you can share that play with other beautiful human beings.
What a gift.
What a miracle in being alive.
Let's just take a brief moment to breathe into that possibility,
The possibility,
The truth,
If you can see it,
That life is a playful opportunity.
Let's take three deep breaths and just invite that into our lives.
Let's breathe.
All right,
My friend.
I invite you to honor what you are.
Honor your sincerity.
Honor life and other human beings.
Thanks for meditating with me today.
