Hi,
My name is Steven and today I'll be facilitating a meditation for connecting with source energy.
It's very pervasive within many cultures to feel a disconnect from our own sovereignty,
From trust that we're being guided by the hand of the universe.
And so with this practice I just invite you to be aware of any old beliefs that may come up.
Beliefs of feeling like you don't matter,
That you're not enough.
Thoughts of how could there be a source.
It's okay.
So gently allow yourself the space to relax in this moment.
The truth of the matter is that even in the most challenging of moments in your life you've always been connected to source and the source is unconditionally loving.
This source is here for you.
And it loves you.
And it loves you.
It's just been waiting for you to come home.
Home to yourself.
And so in this moment allow yourself to gently close the eyes,
To drop the shoulders,
Loosen the jaw.
Begin to notice the points of your body that are in contact with the seat beneath you.
And during this practice today I'm going to be taking us through some techniques to drop into the body and from there I'll be guiding us through a short sound healing experience.
So if you're lying down you can set the intention to stay awake.
If you find any discomfort arising,
If you find your mind chiming in,
You can give the mind the loving task to focus on the breath.
So in this moment I invite you to start breathing in at a count of five and to breathe out at a count of five.
With each breath you are drawing a new energy revitalizing your life force.
And as you move through these waves of breath,
Notice the pivot point between the inhale and the exhale.
Notice how there is no separateness between the two.
Allow each exhale to drop you more into relaxation.
And so from here I just invite you to drop the breathing pattern.
Arrive at a breath that feels effortless and natural for you.
And bring the attention to the heart.
And take a moment to ask your heart what does it need right now?
What is it willing and ready to release?
Allow anything to come up.
Maybe this is a thought,
An image,
A color.
No matter what it is,
Be present with it.
And in this moment I just invite you to set the intention to open up the body to receive any sound vibrations that are meant to come through in this moment as I begin to facilitate the sound healing.
So allow yourself to continue tuning into the heart.
Breathing in and out like a wave.
And so take a moment to envision a star of diamond light and place it in the solar plexus,
The area of the center of the sternum.
Place it here and take a deep breath in.
Pause at the top.
Breathe in a little more.
And slowly release the breath.
Let that starlight expand.
The solar plexus is our area of will.
It is our area of self-worth and confidence.
A lot of the times our disconnection from source comes from this place of not feeling worthy of connecting to something higher,
Of not connecting to love.
Know that all parts of you are worthy of love.
All parts of you are whole.
And so in this moment take a moment to place another star of diamond light and place it in the heart.
As you place it in the heart take a deep breath in.
Hold the breath at the top.
Draw in a little more breath.
And slowly release.
Allow that starlight to expand.
It's within the heart chakra that we experience imprints in the womb.
It's in the space that we also experience feelings of abandonment.
And so allow yourself to just feel.
A deep sense of love within your heart.
That in spite of all challenges,
All difficulties,
All hard emotions,
Your heart has been here.
Beating,
Pumping blood this whole time.
From here place a star of diamond light within the throat chakra.
And from here take a deep breath in.
Pause at the top.
Breathe in a little more.
And slowly,
Slowly release the breath.
It's within the throat chakra that we are able to channel creative downloads from source.
That we are able to communicate and express ourselves with clarity.
And so as that diamond light expands,
Allow it to imagine bursting blue.
Like a beautiful supernova in the distance.
And from here place a diamond star of light in the third eye.
The point right between the eyebrows.
As you do take a deep breath in.
Pause at the top.
Take in a little more breath.
And slowly exhale.
Letting that starlight expand throughout the face.
Reaching the ears.
Our third eye is where we have the capacity to see truth.
And sometimes we have experiences in life that can lead us to not want to know,
To not want to see.
And so know in this moment that you are safe.
That it is okay to be connected to your intuition.
From here I invite you to place a star of diamond light in the crown chakra.
From here I invite you to take a deep breath in.
Hold at the top.
Breathe in a little bit more.
And slowly exhale.
Allowing for your crown to open.
Allow in a stream of white light into the crown of your head.
That's our crown chakra that connects us to spirit.
So allow yourself to absorb this white light.
Allowing to breathe in and out.
And from here I invite you to place three last stars of light.
Two at the soles of the feet.
And one at the base of the spine.
Take a deep breath in.
Pause at the top.
Allowing a little more breath.
And slowly release.
Allowing for those diamond stars of light to expand within the root chakra.
This area that grounds us to the earth.
That grounds us into this physicality.
Allowing for those diamond stars of light to expand within the root chakra.
Breathe in.
And so in this moment,
Imagine from the soles of your feet.
Extend these crystalline red cords that go down into the floorboards beneath you.
Down into the fertile soils into the belly of Mother Earth.
Through each layer.
Until reaching the core of the earth to which these cords connect like an umbilical.
Feel yourself grounding into the physical body.
Safe and held by Mother Earth.
Take a deep breath in.
And draw in that energy from the earth.
And as you exhale,
Feel yourself coming more into the body.
Again,
Take another deep breath in.
And as you exhale,
Feel that connection to the earth,
To your body.
And as we close this meditation,
I just invite you to sit with the question.
What would it look like to trust more in my day-to-day life?
What would it look like to sow the seeds of trust?
And to connect with my heart,
To connect with my essence.
And so in this moment,
Take a moment to place around you a sphere of purple light.
Feeling its protective energy.
With each inhale,
You breathe in purple light.
You draw in that soothing quality.
And allow yourself to bask in this energy.
And acknowledge that when you are protected,
When you are connected to yourself,
Nothing can touch you.
And so from where you are,
I invite you to take your time coming out.
Maybe starting with very gentle movement.
Slowly as you're ready,
You can open the eyes.
Namaste.
You may want to drink water after this,
But wishing you a wonderful day.
