Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:03):
My name is Maddie from Manifest with Maddie and I'm
unwheares your bump hat and this is a pregnancy meditation.
Find a quiet, comfortable space where you can be undisturbed.
Sit or lie down in a position that feels good
for you. Close your eyes and take a deep breath in,

(00:24):
filling your lungs completely, and exhale slowly, releasing any tension
with each breath. Allow yourself to settle deeper into relaxation,
knowing that this time is for you and your baby.
Bring your awareness to your body. Notice the gentle rise

(00:49):
and fall of your breath. Feel the support beneath you,
grounding you and holding you safely. Bring your hands to
your belly, feeling the warmth of your touch, and take
a moment to connect with your baby, sending them love

(01:12):
and gratitude. With each inhale, imagine you are breathing in
calmness to your baby, and with each exhale, you are
releasing any tension or worry. As you breathe, picture a

(01:33):
warm golden light flowing through your body, starting at the
crown of your head, softening your face, releasing your jaw,
flowing down your shoulders, through your arms, and into your fingertips.
This light gently travels down your spine, relaxing your back,

(01:55):
softening your belly, and surrounding your baby in a warm,
protective glow. Bring your attention to this present moment. Let
go of any thoughts about the past or future. Right
now you are here, present, breathing, existing in harmony with

(02:20):
your baby. If any worries or fears arise, acknowledge them
with kindness and imagine them floating away like clouds in
the sky or a leaf down a stream. They do
not define you. You are strong, capable, and deeply connected

(02:44):
to the wisdom of your body. No matter how your
baby enters this world, whether through a natural birth or
a cesarean trust that your body knows what to do.
Your journey is sacred and unique. You are doing it

(03:06):
exactly as it's meant to be for you and your baby,
and your baby is coming in the perfect way for
both of you. Now visualize yourself in labor, feeling a
deep sense of peace and confidence. Imagine each contraction or

(03:28):
anticipated moment as a powerful wave rising and falling, and you,
like the ocean, moving with it effortlessly. With each surge,
you breathe deeply, allowing your body to open naturally. Picture

(03:54):
yourself standing at the shore, the water lapping at your feet.
Each wave approaches, growing in strength, then crusting and retreating.
You do not resist the waves. You move with them,

(04:15):
surrendering to their rhythm, knowing that the ocean's power is
also your power. With every inhale, imagine drawing in the
energy of the sea, strong, steady, endless, and fierce. With

(04:40):
every exhale, you release into its embrace, trusting in the flow,
trusting in your body's wisdom. As the waves rise and fall,
you remain calm, steady, and grounded. You are supported by

(05:01):
the earth beneath you and the vast, boundless energy of
nature itself. Each wave brings you closer to meeting your baby,
and with each breath you welcome this journey with love
and trust. Envision yourself cacooned by love, warmth, and support.

(05:30):
You are safe, you are strong, and your body knows
exactly what to do. Now. I want you to repeat
these things silently or aloud. Now, I want you to
repeat these statements silently or aloud. I trust my body

(05:54):
and my baby. I am strong, calm, and capable. Each
breath fills me with peace and confidence. Your body was
made for this. From the beginning of time, women have

(06:17):
carried life within them, bringing new souls into the world
with grace and strength. You are part of this sacred connection,
and within you lies the same ancient wisdom. Your body
knows how to grow, nourish, and birth your perfect baby
in harmony. Trust in this process, Trust in yourself, and

(06:44):
know that you are powerful beyond measure. Begin to bring
your awareness back to the present moment. Notice what you
can hear. Wriggle your fingers and toes, feeling the energy

(07:05):
return to your body. Take one more deep, nourishing breath,
and when you're ready, gently blink your eyes open and
have an amazing, peaceful rest of your day.
