Welcome to Love's Quest,
Guided meditations for finding the one.
Number four,
Letting go.
I'm Truly Eleanor,
Dating and relationship coach,
Working with women for the past 15 years and I'm so excited to have you join me today in this beautiful meditation to help you to let go,
Whatever that may mean for you.
Be sure to listen to the whole series to get the entire experience.
Let's get started by getting comfortable,
Whether you're seated or laying down,
Whatever works for you is perfect.
Settling into your body and closing your eyes,
We are about to go on a journey to surrender.
Surrender those things that are weighing you down.
Surrender those things that you carry around without even realizing it.
We're going to work with all of this today and more.
So taking a deep breath in through the nose and releasing slowly through the mouth.
Another breath deeply in through the nose,
Filling the lungs and the entire body and releasing again through the mouth,
Allowing the body to relax and settle in deeply to this process to start the surrender now.
And taking a final breath in through the nose and releasing through the mouth,
Beginning to notice where your body feels tense and going to this space now,
Going to the place within your body that feels contracted,
That feels like it's clenching.
Go to that area now.
And with unconditional love and witnessing,
I want you to spend a moment giving this part of your body attention,
Placing intention on this part of the body.
We don't need to make the body do anything or have to do anything.
You're merely witnessing this tension with unconditional love.
You are saying,
I see you now.
I am here and I'm spending time with you.
We have all the time in the world.
And taking notice if this part of the body starts to speak to you or create a narrative or give you some information or a message,
Maybe you'll see colors,
Maybe you'll hear words.
You might be seeing a symbol or suddenly have a memory of some kind and it's okay,
You're safe.
Whatever is being shown to you is from the past or is a fear that is hidden,
Creating heaviness and creating tension in your body.
And you're here to witness this part of you,
This energy that is contracted or holding on for some reason.
You don't even need to know the reason.
Now I want you to continue gazing with your mind's eye at this space in your body,
Watching the story of this part of your body.
Gazing at this space in your body,
Watching the story unfold,
Watching the process that your body is going through with a loving embrace.
Now I want you to think to yourself,
I am letting go.
I am safe to let go.
As I let go,
I free myself.
I am free.
I am safe.
I am light.
You may direct these words and this mantra to this specific part of your body or you may simply broadcast this message to your entire body,
Your entire emotional and energetic experience right now.
Whatever feels good for you is perfect.
Now going back to this space,
This part of your body again,
And we're going to start to transform this energy.
So maybe the heaviness has already gone or it's still unfolding its story in front of you.
Whatever is happening,
You can now infuse this energy,
This space in your body with your favorite symbol,
Bringing this to mind.
It could be a flower,
It could be a favorite animal,
It could be a view of the ocean,
Or a favorite color.
Whatever comes up for you first is the one that wants to take part in this process today.
With your symbol in mind,
I want you to direct this symbol to infuse itself into this area of the body.
So if it's a flower,
Maybe you see maybe you see many flowers growing in this whole area,
Maybe a garden sprouts up,
Or you see the entire color,
A deep purple or whatever color it is,
Painting the entire area of the body with this beautiful color.
And we're not doing anything with the heaviness,
We're not doing anything with the burden that we are about to let go.
We're simply adding our favorite energy,
A lighter energy,
A more joyful energy to this area.
And you may start to notice that the heaviness or the energy starts to transform and become this favorite symbol,
Joining and transforming into this new joyful alchemy.
And whatever it becomes is perfect for you.
Spending time now watching and witnessing with this unconditional loving gaze,
Watching,
Noticing what is unfolding before you.
Remember you have all the time in the world,
You are here to witness and to add energy,
Add this joyful element to this heaviness.
Taking another moment to witness perhaps the energies,
The heaviness has joined with the lightness,
Or they remain separate.
And now taking all of this energy that is in the space of the body that you're focused on now,
I want you to imagine that the bottom of your feet are opening up like trap doors.
And all this energy,
The heaviness,
The lightness,
The joyful element,
The heavy element is sliding down away from the body,
Down the legs and through the feet,
Dropping easily into the earth.
It's amazing how easily this energy just drops away.
Following the path that has been given to let go.
You have shown the energy that it has a place to leave,
It has an escape route,
If you will.
This energy was ready to go.
In fact,
It is a relief for you and this energy that it can finally go back to the earth where it needs to transform into something else.
This having energy never wanted to stay.
There is no judgment for whatever reason.
It had become stuck.
And you have set it free.
Take a moment to congratulate yourself for freeing this energy for freeing yourself from this experience for allowing the space to open up in your body and your energy and your life and your experience to give yourself space to let go.
And now taking a moment to observe this area of the body.
If there's any remaining energy there,
Gently directing it to leave through the legs down out through the feet so that you can have your energy back.
You can have your body back.
You can have the space that you need.
You are ready to let go.
So,
I invite you to let go.
You are ready to let go so that you have the full spaciousness and expansiveness of yourself.
You have room to breathe.
Now taking a moment to see scanning the body to see if there are any other areas with any heaviness that is ready to go at this moment.
Go directly to this space now within the body.
Start this process again.
Bring to mind a beautiful favorite flower or crystal or animal or joyful energy in whatever form it may show up and start to add this energy to the heaviness.
Watching it transform and blend.
Blend together to transform and transmute into this beautiful alchemy like a kaleidoscope of all the energies and colors.
You see it makes it easier to let go when we can infuse joy into the moment,
Into this energy,
Into the space.
It is much easier to let go.
The joyful element you're adding to this energy is like a guide,
Guiding the heaviness out of the body,
Making the transit much easier.
So,
As this joyful energy escorts the heaviness out of the body,
You do the same process of watching it leave through the body,
Through the legs,
Through the feet and into the earth.
Easily dropping away and freeing yourself and freeing the energy and freeing everything around you.
Take a moment to really breathe into this expansiveness and space that you have created.
Feel the comfort and the settling you can do deep within the body and in your energy now that you have this space.
It feels so comforting.
You can breathe,
You can exhale,
You can connect.
Taking a moment now to observe this feeling one last time of connection,
Of spaciousness,
Of lightness.
Thank yourself for showing up today and all of the heaviness you have released,
All of the letting go that you have done today.
Knowing you can come back to this at any time and continue the process of letting go.
Take a moment to close the bottom of the feet,
Observing your body from head to toe with a grateful nod to this new lightness in your being.
Thanking the energies that are here that you've connected to today to assist you in the process.
And with one final grateful exhale,
We start to come back into the room,
Moving your fingers and toes and really feeling that beautiful connection to your body.
And when you're ready,
You can fully open your eyes,
Feeling rejuvenated,
Feeling light,
Feeling connected,
Feeling at home within yourself.
Thank you so much for joining me today.
I'm Truly Eleanor.
Until next time.
