Transcript
This meditation is to connect to the energy of the Great Mother,
That of which you are and that of which you came from.
Beautiful space for mothers bearing and caring for children,
Those who wish to conceive,
As well as non-childbearing who want to connect to the Mother within.
We all have Mother energy within,
Regardless of our physical reality.
Before we begin,
Find a space where you can connect within.
Where you can be here now,
Be present with the practice for the next few minutes.
Where distractions are manageable for you.
I say manageable because the goal isn't to be perfect in our focus.
The goal is to practice refocusing,
Coming back to the body and the breath when we drift or lose our focus.
Let's begin.
Come to a seated upright position with an elongated or long spine.
Place your hands in a comfortable position on your body,
Within your lap or on your loom space.
You can also be lying down if this calls to you today,
Listening to your body and following your body's lead.
Once you settle into your position,
Close your eyes if you feel safe to do so,
And notice for a second how you feel today in your body.
Start to connect inwards.
Feel where your root or base of the spine meets the earth.
Feel grounded in the body and connected to the earth where your body meets the floor.
Feel a sense of connectedness to all that surrounds you,
Feeling deeply safe and secure.
Now move your attention to your breath.
Inhale through the nose,
Feeling the air as it meets your nostrils.
Feeling the air as it moves down the back of your throat,
Into your heart space,
Through your core and into your womb.
And as you exhale,
Begin to feel the flow of life move in the opposite direction,
Swirling through your womb space,
Upwards toward your heart,
Into the back of your throat,
And back through the nose.
Inhale through the nose,
Noticing the flow of air through the body.
Exhale through the nose,
Feeling the natural recoil within the body caused by the exhale.
Allow your attention to focus more and more on the breath,
While allowing the movement to feel somewhat effortless.
Really begin to connect to the natural rhythm of your breathing without the force of your breath.
Notice where you are breathing in this moment.
Notice the inhales and the exhales of each breath that you take.
Find nourishment here.
With each inhale,
Nourishing your physical,
Emotional,
And energetic body.
And with each exhale,
Releasing tension from your physical,
Emotional,
And energetic body.
Stuck emotions,
Allowing your breath to help direct your energy with each inhale and exhale.
Continuing to inhale and exhale,
Trace the breath through the body.
And as you do this,
Feel into the energy that flows with each breath,
Nourishing here,
Nourishing here.
Feel the energy that flows with each breath,
Nourishing who you are,
Feeling into the courage and energy of motherhood.
Feeling into the energy of harmony.
Each inhale and exhale,
Allowing the energy of harmony to flow through the body,
