Transcription of Meditation
Welcome everyone to the World Blessings Guided Meditations. Today's guided meditation is bringing light to the experience of discouragement, disillusionment, and despair. One of the challenges of doing this is that when we are feeling very discouraged, depressed, despairing, it's very difficult to actually feel like you can even sit and call in light. It's very hard to access that other part of us that is larger than these experiences that we're living through. So I understand, and that's part of why we're doing this meditation in order to have some help, to be able to bring light, and to open even in the presence of these very, very difficult and painful experiences.
I also want to say something about why many people at this time are feeling discouragement, disillusionment, despair. There's lots of reasons for each individual soul. On a planetary level, there have been a number of delays in the manifestation of light, so that has caused a great deal of hardship for many people.
I can talk more about that another time. I don't know a lot about it, but I've seen how it's played out in my life. And some of you that have been with World Blessings for a while have observed that there have been long periods of time where there didn't appear to be a lot happening. So that is all related to the larger cosmic timing of the unfoldment of the manifestation of light on the earth. But for the time being, we're going to focus on our individual selves and consciousness and to do our best to bring light to discouragement, disillusionment and despair.
And I want to share that for this meditation, one of my three kitties has arrived and is present here bringing the love and light from the animal kingdom. So, I'm very grateful that we have also that blessing with us for today's meditation.
So just take a moment now, as you sit. This is meditation that you definitely want to dedicate a little bit of time too, okay? Some of my meditations actually can be used in lots of different situations. But for this particular meditation, you want to find a quiet time where you can really sit and just be with yourself and to sit in whatever type of environment feels the most nurturing to you. So make sure that you're warm enough. Make sure that whatever is available of comfort can be nearby, even if it's like just something beautiful, and a box of Kleenex if you're feeling sad. Just really try and have all the comforts that are possible with you as you join this meditation.
So allow yourself to sit quietly, and become aware of your breath. Become aware that there is a larger part of yourself, a larger part of your being. The way that you might be able to perceive it is like the sun. If you can imagine the sun above you, shining down upon you, and warming your head and your shoulders and warming all of your body all the way down to your feet.
Just become aware as you breathe. A feeling, the sun, which is actually your larger being. Your larger self, your soul that contains your soul purpose. Your knowledge, your inner knowledge about why you're here on the earth at this time. And what you're here to do and learn, what your greatest desire is, what you're greatest hopes are.
This is your larger being. And just imagine that your larger being is shining above you like the sun warming you. And in the highest truth, you are one with that. You are one with that being that is your larger being. However, at this moment, you may not feel that. You may feel the painful emotional experiences of discouragement, disillusionment, despair, depression. So as you're sitting, become aware of where these feelings are located in your body. They may not have an actual single location, but they may. Become aware of where you feel the pain the most.
Breathing deeply into your body and just allowing yourself to feel. Now at this time, allow yourself to become aware of a channel of energy that runs from the top of your head all the way down to the base of your spine. And it also runs down from the base of your spine through the bottoms of your feet.
And as you become aware of this part of your body and your energy body, allow yourself to breathe deeply and to imagine that these emotions and the energies of despair, depression, disillusionment, discouragement, imagine that these energies are beginning to flow downward. They're just flowing. It isn't even that you need to do anything. It's more that you're becoming aware of this channel in your body where those energies can move.
And this is a time and a moment where you can ask from your heart. You can ask for help from the holy earth, the beautiful, sacred, earth that we're living on and as a part of. The holy earth is available to help you. And just feel in your heart this profound prayer to be relieved of the heaviness and the weight of these emotions and energies. Just allowing the holy earth to help pull these energies from your body to whatever level that your body can release them, all in the space of allowing and receiving.
You may become aware of and notice that, as the holy earth helps to pull some of this energy from your body, that the warm sunlight of your larger being is able to shine even more fully and even more brightly into your physical and energy body. Feel the radiance and the warmth and the light of your soul purpose and of your larger being. Feel all the cells of your body receiving and taking in your own larger being, becoming more deeply connected.
And now, give yourself the suggestion and the intention that this connection, this greater connection with your own inner being, will remain here in your body, in your cells, in your cellular awareness, and that you can come back to this place whenever you need.
Now, holding yourself with the greatest love and tenderness and acceptance, almost as you would hold a young child ... accepting and receiving all the feelings, thoughts, all the difficulties, and knowing deeply that you are your larger being as well as your human embodied being and that you are part of God and part of the sacred purpose of this time.
And now very gently, very gently, very gently allowing yourself to come back in your own time, in your own way. Coming back. Bringing with you all that you've received that is your own beautiful larger self.
I send you lots of love and many blessings.
