Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hey there.
Today's meditation is going tobegin with connecting with a
wish or an intention.
It can be a single word, adeepest desire, maybe something
you haven't put out into theuniverse yet.
Might be an affirmation.

(00:22):
Really, whatever comes to mindfor you today, it could be a
single word like health, orpeace, or calm, clarity.
Whatever it is.
Start to connect with yourintention for today's meditation

(00:48):
.
Great.
So find somewhere comfortableto relax, maybe a cushion under
your knees to support your back,or a cozy blanket to keep you

(01:09):
warm and allow yourself to fullyrelax.
This is a practice that you canenjoy in the evening before you
go to sleep, or even whenyou're feeling not well and you
just want to reconnect and allowthe body into a relaxed state

(01:32):
of healing.
You can also use it to startyour day Whatever works for you.
This is your invitation to joinme in this short guided
meditation.
Once settled, with eyes closed,start to feel the body heavy on

(01:57):
the surface that you're lying on, just connecting with awareness
to the weight of the body andthe sound of your breath.
This is a time just for you.
There's nothing to do.

(02:21):
You are supported.
You will continue to breathe,whether you think about it or
not, but if you connect withthat beautiful life force,
breath, you will notice a newenergy.

(02:45):
As you breathe and continue toconnect with yourself, exhale
anything that you've beenholding on to Breathe in the

(03:07):
connection, breathe out anythingthat's not serving you in this
moment.
There's nothing you can do,nothing you want to do right now
.
This time is for you.
You're already here with me, sostay with me as your gift to

(03:31):
yourself.
Nothing else matters for thesemoments.
There is no right or wrong.
As you go through the process,there just is.

(03:51):
In this beautiful relaxed spaceand state, connecting with the
movement of your breath, allowyourself to connect inward,

(04:21):
being one with the breathsupported by the earth beneath
you, connecting with your senses.
What can you hear around you,both inside and outside?

(04:51):
Just notice.
Assign no meaning.
Just notice.
What can you taste in yourmouth, what sensations can you

(05:21):
feel in your skin and body?
And now, as you connect withyour eyes and your power of

(05:42):
sight, just allow your gaze toturn inwards.
Feel your eyes sinking gentlyas I guide you through this
process, remaining relaxed yetin conscious awareness.

(06:07):
If your mind drifts, simplynotice and then guide it back to
my voice.

(06:37):
In this relaxed state, I wantyou now to connect with that
wish or intention that you setfor today's practice.
Remember, it can be a singleword or a deepest desire, an
affirmation or whatever comes tomind.
Whatever your deepest desire orintention is, it's time now to

(07:24):
state in your mind yourintention for today's practice
three times.
Once you've repeated yourintention or your affirmation

(07:56):
three times, I want you torepeat thank you in your mind,
feel a deep sense of gratitude.
Take a deep breath in, fillyourself with that intention and

(08:34):
, as you exhale, I want you tosurrender your intention to the
universe.
Take a few deep breaths here andI'm going to guide you now
through parts of your body, justbringing awareness.
You don't need to move.
Simply listen to my voice andconnect with each area as I

(08:55):
guide you.
There's no right or wrong wayto do this.
If you drift, simply guideyourself back to my voice,

(09:29):

notice any tension there andjust breathe into it and relax,
