This meditation is to help you learn to surrender,
Allow,
And trust in the universe.
I like to use the acronym SAT,
S-A-T,
To help me remember to surrender,
Allow,
And trust.
Start by sitting comfortably,
Allowing your eyes to gently close.
Notice how you're sitting here,
Halfway between heaven and earth.
Feel the groundedness,
The support of the earth beneath you,
As you begin to notice all the places where your body touches the surfaces beneath you.
Perhaps your feet on the floor,
Your legs on a chair.
Feeling how grounded and supported you are by the earth.
Taking a deep breath into that groundedness,
And releasing it.
At the same time that you're aware of this groundedness,
The support of the earth beneath you,
Also notice how your upper body is in the air,
In the lightness and expansion of the cosmos.
It's way above your head.
There's a vastness that's so much greater than your mind,
Into the sky,
Into the universe.
As you breathe,
Simply notice the rise and fall of your chest or belly as you inhale and exhale.
Observe how the breath breathes itself.
Observe how the breath breathes itself.
And surrender to the breath.
Surrender,
Allow,
And trust.
You've probably never worried whether the next breath would come or not.
If you're like most people,
You don't even think about it,
Because you assume it will.
You trust,
And you allow the breath to come and go as it naturally wants to.
While this same feeling of absolute trust,
So much trust that you never doubt it,
You can cultivate that same feeling of trust in the goodness that's available for your life so that you simply assume the goodness will come to you and the universe has your back.
I invite you to call on your spirit guides now,
Or a wise,
Compassionate being,
Your ancestors,
Or a mentor,
Whatever works for you.
I like to make the invitation by saying,
I call on my spirit guides,
Acting in my highest good to join me.
And now there's this part of us that's connected to,
And that is something bigger than our human self.
Whether you call this life force God,
The universe,
The light,
It doesn't matter.
I recommend you use whatever language works best for you.
And beginning this invocation or prayer,
I recommend doing this each morning,
Starting your day by saying,
Universe,
What would you have me do today?
Where would you have me go?
What would you have me say?
And to whom?
These phrases are from the book,
A Course in Miracles,
And you can repeat them in your own mind after me.
What would you have me do today?
Where would you have me go?
What would you have me say?
And to whom?
I commit to surrendering,
Allowing,
And trusting the universe to align me with what's in my highest good.
I surrender,
Allow,
And trust the universe to carry me forward on my path.
And again,
You can substitute a different word for universe.
Perhaps it's God or life force,
Whatever works for you.
I surrender,
Allow,
And trust the universe to create what's in my highest good and the highest good of all beings everywhere.
I surrender,
Allow,
And trust the universe to bring me into alignment with my truth.
I surrender,
Allow,
And trust the universe to move in me,
As me,
Through me.
In me,
As me,
Through me.
In me,
As me,
Through me.
In me,
As me,
Through me.
In me,
As me,
Through me.
I surrender,
Allow,
And trust the universe to move in me,
As me,
Through me.
I surrender,
Allow,
And trust the universe to move in me,
As me,
Through me.
And I surrender,
Allow,
And trust the universe to create in me,
As me,
Through me.
What would you have me do today?
Where would you have me go?
What would you have me say?
And to whom?
And as you say those questions,
Perhaps someone's face will come to mind.
You'll have an impulse to go somewhere or to call someone.
I recommend you follow those impulses.
What would you have me do today?
Where would you have me go?
What would you have me say?
And to whom?
And this morning prayer and ritual aligns you with your intuition and your highest good.
Now all you have to do is simply surrender,
Allow,
And trust.
Yes,
Sometimes you will take action.
You'll take aligned action based on the guidance that you've received.
Sometimes you do nothing,
Just sat,
Surrender,
Allow,
Trust,
And things will come to you.
As you notice what comes your way today,
See if you can be open to receiving it.
See if you can allow and trust as it arrives.
Enjoy!
