Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome to meditation. Tides with Michele's sanctuary. Let the tides
of hope guide you in this practice. You are listening too,
spark your inner flame. A guided meditation to reconnect you
with your deepest passions, perhaps your secret dreams, and your

(00:23):
most potent source of self trust. I am Michel, and
you may think of me as a dear friend and
personal ally who is here to cheer you on as
you remember the parts of you that you love most.

(00:44):
Tend to the light within, giving yourself the boundless permission
to dream boldly and feel truly inspired. Settle with your
eyes closed, turn your attention to your breath, and let

(01:04):
out a sigh. Visualize your breath flowing out of your
mouth to claim the space around you. Every molecule radiates
with your intention, surrounding you in a protective orb. Within

(01:26):
a safe inner sanctuary, you are free to be your
most hopeful self. Now, bring your attention to the center
of your chest, to your heart space. As you inhale,

(01:47):
visualize a tiny, constant source of warmth here. As you exhale,
know that the space may be small and quiet, but
it is always ready to ignite, representing your essential spark.

(02:08):
Of life and inherent passion to create the spark. Take
a deliberate action. Think now of one quiet, perhaps even
secret longing, or desire that resides deep within you. A

(02:34):
dream you harbor, an act of creation you ache for,
or shift in life you deeply want. This is a
desire that belongs only to you. Hold that singular, potent

(02:56):
feeling in your mind. As you observe this tiny flame
and begin to day dream about your hopes and desires,
a faint, self protective voice may sometimes try to interrupt.

(03:19):
Let's call that the naysayer. This voice speaks of fear, impossibility,
and of things you shouldn't pursue. Acknowledge this voice, but
don't argue with it. Your energy is better served feeding

(03:42):
this flame. Simply redirect the naysayer outside your sanctuary store.
It's now been relieved of its duty, and as you
secure your quiet within you continue to breathe deeply. As

(04:05):
you inhale, imagine drying, pure, nourishing air to your heart center,
and as you exhale, direct that breath gently toward the fire,
begging the question, what if I fan this flame? Failiar

(04:31):
flame responding, it glows brighter, stronger, and begins to crackle.
It comes back to vibrant life with the same hopeful
vision of a child who looks at the world through

(04:53):
a lens of magic. As the flame grows into a strong,
steady fire, notice the incredible light it projects on to
your inner walls. The light is so pure. It begins

(05:15):
to reveal visions, visions of things you long for, paths
you've been afraid to walk, Our passions you thought were
too silly, were too grand to share. In this moment,

(05:37):
these visions are for you and you alone. No one
needs to know what you long for. This flame is
yours to protect, and these visions are your truth alone.

(06:00):
The firelight to illuminate these goals, these deep desires, these possibilities.
Let them burn brightly in your inner sanctuary, fueled by

(06:23):
the hope that emanates from your core. Feel the truth
of them, settle deep in your bones. Feel the warmth
and pure energy. It's the fuel that feeds on your

(06:43):
vision for a better life. This feeling of warmth and
inspired energy, it's your new baseline. It is a promise
that you hold all the hope and motivation that you need.

(07:06):
Protect it and keep fanning the flames of your desires.
As we come to the end of this meditation, take
one final deep breath in holding on to the empowering

(07:27):
warmth of your inner flame. Slowly exhale, setting the intention
to protect this flame and to trust the inspired visions
it revealed. When you feel the shadow of the naysayer return,

(07:51):
or if doubt ever tries to dim the light, remember
the physical sensation of the flame. Remember to take a
deep breath and ask yourself, what have I fanned this flame?
Thank you for letting me be part of your journey

(08:13):
to day. I hope you move forward with a powerful
sense of hope and inspiration, always remembering the strength of
your inner fire. Until next time. This is Michel wishing
that these meditation tithes smark your inner flame to life.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
