Transcription of Meditation
Welcome everyone to the World Blessings Guided Meditations. Today I want to share with you an absolutely beautiful meditation about dealing with adversity. The reason this came to me is because of the many requests that I've received, and especially there are a lot of people dealing with various financial challenges right now, and also other health challenges and situations that aren't ones that we would choose ourselves. We're all very familiar with that, things that are unwelcome that come into our life that we have no choice but to deal with them.
in this meditation I want to share with you that I'm standing outside on a beautiful day, so there's the sound of wind, and I hope that you'll still be able to hear me, and there is a single flower blooming in front of me. I'll include the picture of that as well, because it's a wonderful visual affirmation of God's goodness even during times when it feels like there isn't any goodness to be found.
The other thing I want to share about The World Blessings Guided Meditations is that I never know exactly what I'm going to be given to share because the meditations are given to me through the Realms of Light and they come in the moment. So I wanted to share that because part of the whole experience of dealing with adversity I think is that that whole sense of not really knowing what is going to happen next.
So I am right there with you every time I do these meditations. I never know what's going to happen. And that's really the situation we're all in in life, that we're here through God's grace and the choice of our souls, and we don't really know what's going to happen next.
So this guided meditation is intended to support you during times of great adversity and whatever that challenge is, could be different for each individual. So just take a moment now. This is a meditation that can be done standing or sitting. I recommend if you can stand outside, that would be a wonderful way to feel the support of the earth. And the reason I recommend that is because the earth herself is carrying light and can also have the function of helping to drain off some of the stress that you're experiencing. The earth has that capability.
So just take a moment. If you can, close your eyes. If you're in a situation where you can be quiet, just take a moment and close your eyes and feel your feet and feel your heart and your breath. Breathe and just allow your consciousness to move into a different part of yourself. We all have many parts of ourselves and just allow your consciousness to drop down away from the more everyday consciousness that you might be aware of that navigates you through the practical realities of your life. Just allow yourself to drop down, moving into your heart.
As you breathe, feel your heart. You can even put your hand over your heart and allow yourself to feel or to imagine because we don't always feel this part of ourselves. Allow yourself to imagine and feel that your heart is a brilliant eternal flame, and it can nourish you and support you.
Imagine that that brilliant eternal flame that is your heart, that is your soul, that is your larger being, imagine that this part of you is starting to burn more brightly now. Imagine like a candle, that the flame is getting larger and creating a gentle warmth in your chest and in your body. Allow yourself to feel your feet on the earth or resting on the ground just breathing.
Imagine now each breath that you take in nourishes that flame that's in your heart. So the flame gets brighter and brighter. The warmth becomes more penetrating and more supportive and nourishing into your body. Now allow yourself to become aware of your breath again.
As you breathe out imagine that your body and your mind are able to release stress through your out breath. You don't even have to know how. You just give yourself that suggestion and know that your body has that capability breathing in to the light in your heart and breathing out and releasing anything that you no longer need, any stress, any tension, and allow yourself to feel that the holy earth is available to help you as you breathe out.
The holy earth can help release the tension and stress in your body, and in breathing in greater light into your heart. As you breathe out, allow yourself to experience any stress leaving your body through your feet. And as you start to feel the warmth in your heart expanding and the stress in your body releasing, notice that your energy field is becoming brighter.
Your whole body and your energy field are becoming lighter, brighter, more radiant. Allow yourself to experience that the holy earth is here with you helping you. Imagine that any stress, any difficulty, any adversity that you're carrying in your body, in your mind, in your emotions is now being magnetically removed from your body. Feel that the magnetic field of the holy earth is pulling this energy from your body down out your body and through your feet right into the center of the earth.
As this happens, allow yourself to experience the light from the divine from above your head that moves in through the top of your head. Sometimes it feels like a gentle soft light. Sometimes it can feel stronger. It's a beautiful stream of spiritual light radiating from the divine and moving down into your body through the top of your head infusing each cell of your body restoring, rejuvenating, revitalizing, repairing, and renewing all parts of your body, every cell of your body from the top of your head moving all the way down through every part, through your spine, your body, your arms, your legs, your pelvis, your feet, your energy body, all the organs and the tissues in your body.
Each cell of your body is receiving this light from the divine, radiating from the divine, nourishing you, supporting you, your body receiving that light deeply into each cell from the top of your head down to the bottoms of your feet. As that light from the divine moves all the way down to your feet, it travels through your feet down into the holy earth, making that profound sacred connection between the higher dimensions of light and the physically manifested and energetic body of the earth, and allowing the light to move right into the center of the earth.
Now from this place, from this space in your being and in your consciousness, move your attention back into your heart and allow yourself now to pray deeply from the deepest part of your heart about the situation of adversity that you're dealing with.
Take a moment now to pray deeply and ask for divine help with this situation. Know that your prayer is heard and that all prayers from the heart are heard no matter what spiritual tradition you may have, no matter what prayer you use, all sincere prayers of the heart are heard by God.
Allow yourself to experience those that guide you in your life. All of us have those beings from other levels that are guiding your lifetime. Allow yourself to experience the love, the love and the connection that you have with these - some people call them guardian angels, some people call them guides, spirit guides. Allow yourself to feel the support of your guides, your spiritual teachers, your guardian angels.
Allow yourself to feel that spiritual reality. Most of the time we're not able to feel it, but allow yourself to experience yourself surrounded by those that love you, and support you, and guide you, and that are helping you. Give yourself the suggestion and the intention that you will remain connected to their love, their light, their support, their messages of guidance for you.
Now take both of your hands and place them over your heart allowing yourself to feel the love and gratitude to God for the light that is being made available to all of us at this time. And allow yourself also to feel your gratitude to the holy earth who is supporting all of us who are here on the earth at this time.
Just take a moment, very, very gently, giving yourself the suggestion that when you gently come back to a more waking consciousness that all of the connections that you've made will remain and nourish you in this next period of time. Thank you so much for joining me in today's World Blessings Guided Meditation. I send you lots of love and many blessings.
