Welcome to this journey on healing through conflict.

Conflict can be really rough,

It can erode things within your life,

In your mind,

In your body,

In your soul,

Can take a lot of energy and it can be a really hard and emotional thing.

This process is about healing what's happening within your own being around the conflict.

Quite often when we're in conflict not only are we feeling the pain and the hurt and the uncomfortability and the fury and all the other kaleidoscope of emotions that come along with it,

We are also feeling and experiencing past hurts,

Past reactions to conflict or to situations that we've been holding for a really long time,

Longer than this conflict has been around for.

So today we are going to go on a visualization journey,

Reclaiming what you've lost through conflict,

Parts of yourself that you've given away,

Letting go of other people's stuff that's been put on you.

Heal through this conflict,

Heal yourself,

This isn't about anybody else.

Using the conflict as a catalyst for deeper transformation.

Okay let's start with breath,

Breathing in and exhaling out,

Breathing in and exhaling out.

Two more deep breaths and we're going to move into the visualization,

The journey now.

So in your mind's eye,

See yourself standing on a pier that runs out into the ocean,

Beautiful ocean lapping around the pillars of the pier that you're standing out on the end of.

You can look around,

See the landscape,

See the sky,

Trust anything that you imagine,

Be open to any images that come into your mind.

Now just to your left there's a fishing rod,

You're going to cast it out into the ocean and you're not fishing for fish,

You're casting out to all the places that you have left your power behind,

Everywhere that you've given away your power,

Your decisions,

Your independence to somebody else.

And when you feel a tug on your fishing line you're going to reel it in,

Reel it in and bring back to you that part of yourself,

That bit of power that you've given away to somebody else during a conflict.

Whatever comes in on the hook you're going to unhook it and place it in a basket that's just there next to you at your feet.

Whatever comes in is fine,

Even if you don't recognize it,

Doesn't matter.

Pop it into the basket and cast out again,

Sending the hook flying over into the ocean.

And now we're fishing to pull back in everywhere that you have felt powerless,

Like you've had no choice in conflict,

Where somebody else has been making all the decisions.

And when you feel a tug on the fishing line you can start to reel it in and bring in the power that you have let go when somebody else has made choices for you,

Where you haven't stood up for yourself.

Bring it in and place it in the basket by your feet,

Casting out again.

This time you're going to catch all the places where you blamed somebody else,

Where you've seen somebody else at being at fault for how you felt in a conflict.

And when the line catches you're going to start bringing it in.

This isn't to say that the other person didn't do the wrong thing,

This is about you bringing back the power to make a change.

Because as long as you are blaming somebody else then you have given away your power to be in control.

So we're going to pull it back in now,

Bring back that power that you gave away when you blamed somebody else for what was happening.

And when the item comes in you're going to place it in the basket by your feet and you'll notice that all those items that you've pulled in so far are really glowing in the basket that's by your feet.

And again casting out your line to take back the power of all the things you didn't say,

All the things that were your truth but that you held them down,

That you didn't share,

That you didn't speak.

Whether to avoid conflict or you just swallowed them down because of whatever emotion was overpowering you.

We're going to pull back the power that you lost through all those unsaid things,

All that unsaid truth.

And whatever comes in place it in the basket you're going to cast out again.

And this time you're going to take back your power from all that feeling of guilt and shame or whatever other feelings accompany all those times where you spoke in a way that wasn't true,

That was coming from anger that wasn't expressed in the right time.

From all the hurtful things that you said or did.

We're going to pull the power back of that.

This isn't pulling back in the guilt or the shame or pulling back in the hurt that you felt.

It's pulling back in the power of yourself that you gave away at those times by not being truly aligned with your heart.

We're going to reel that in and place them in the basket beside you.

You're going to cast out one more time to bring back any other power that is out there,

That you've given away,

That you've dropped or that you've had taken from you in conflict.

And we're going to reel that back in and whatever comes place it in the basket.

Now you may like to sit on the edge of the pier,

Let your legs dangle over.

Hold the basket of all the power that you have reconnected with,

You have reeled back to yourself from the far-flung places you've left it.

Both in this conflict and conflicts of the past.

And let your heart expand in a bright beautiful glow and bring in all of your power that belongs to you,

That's also glowing out of the basket.

And bring it back to yourself,

Bring it back to your heart.

Only letting in what is truly yours and truly pure.

To the other side of you there isn't a wheelbarrow on the edge of this pier.

You'll notice in your pockets whatever you're wearing,

You'll start to pull things out that don't belong to you,

That have been weighing you down,

That belong to other people.

So pull out the rocks,

The objects,

Whatever is in your pockets of all the places other people have blamed you for something and you've believed them and you've taken on their blame and it's weighing you down.

Take those things from your pockets and place them in the wheelbarrow.

You may recognize the objects,

You may not,

Either way is perfect.

And now pull from your pockets anywhere that you have taken on other people's emotions where you felt like you couldn't speak,

Where you felt like you couldn't speak up because you didn't want to hurt somebody and you've taken on their emotions,

Been carrying their sadness,

Their heaviness,

Their anger and it's not yours.

Anything in your pockets that you've been carrying around other people's emotions,

Pull that from your pockets now and place them in the wheelbarrow.

Everywhere that you've been carrying things that are other people's duty or through a sense of duty or guilt,

You've been carrying them around,

Getting heavier and heavier with the guilt,

Those things you can take from your pocket now to pop them in the wheelbarrow.

All the times and places that you have been beating yourself up,

Feeling that you did the wrong thing,

Said the wrong thing,

Did the wrong thing,

All the heaviness that you're holding around that,

You can remove all of that from your pockets now and place it in the wheelbarrow.

Now go through your pockets one last time,

Pulling out anything that doesn't belong to you,

That isn't yours and placing it into the wheelbarrow.

Now you're going to push the wheelbarrow up the pier back towards the beach,

Knowing that this is the last time you're going to carry any of this and as you walk each step of the way,

Everything in the wheelbarrow starts to shimmy and it starts to fill with light and like epiphesans,

It starts to break into small little light particles and bubbles and float away in maybe specks of color or gold or silver or epiphesan.

By the time you get to the beach,

Your wheelbarrow is empty.

You may choose to bring the basket with you as well or having taken all your power back from everything you pulled in from the ocean,

You may might to leave it here at the end of the pier and now you turn back to look at the beach,

Look at the waves and fill yourself up with love and gratitude and joy for all that you've learned,

For all that you've grown,

For all that you are.

Watch as the waves roll into the beach,

Feeling complete and calm and whole and coming back to being aware of your body,

Of breath coming in and going out.

Feel your body,

I like to move your body gently,

Come back to the sensation of clothes on your skin,

The ground underneath you.

I like to wiggle fingers,

Undulate spine,

Take deeper breaths and when you're ready,

Open your eyes.

Thank you for coming on this journey with me,

I wish you all the best in your conflict,

Healing and transformation.

Thank you.

Thank you for this guided meditation to help us let go of the heaviness of conflict and reclaim our loving power to guide us toward healing, understanding, and growth.

That was a calming and effective visualization. I felt a bit challenged but that’s good—was trying something new and unburdening myself. Thanks! 🙏
