Today I offer you a practice to bring joy and a little confidence back into your Heart. You can read the practice or if you scroll down you can listen as I guide you through....
Lets begin by taking a moment to reflect upon your journey so far, take a moment to trace back to what feels like a start point, perhaps a beginning of a new job or training course, the timing of a significant ending or beginning in your life, even back to the beginning of your spiritual journey.
Take a moment to breathe into this and make it conscious.
You may wish to close your eyes and play out your journey, noting the feelings that arise within you, the memories that play out upon the inner side of your eyelids. Really let yourself feel the journey once again, from the beginning to where you are now. Taking as long as needed.
Look how far you have come. Even if you are still in the process - challenges, difficulties, ongoing struggles - you have still made it this far. You are still showing up every day.
Look at what you have learned. It may have taken you many times over a similar situation but perhaps now you have seen the new path, the new way. What challenges have you transmuted into opportunities? Can you pay yourself the loving gratitude for your own hard work? How does it feel to own that?
Are you the same person as when you embarked on this journey? Do you feel the same, look the same? How are you different?Â
Sometimes reflecting and coming back to the beginning of a time or situation can shift our awareness. Taking a journey from within the present moment into the past really conceptualises your growth. Making you aware of all of the work you have been doing within the Inner Realms.
Imagine for a moment - the present as our grounding point, the future moments our goals, and the past as the fuel - transmuting what was to become what will be - this is Alchemy.
Once you have taken a moment to reflect, adding your own questions, allowing yourself to journey through your timelines of growth and transformation, begin to breathe.
Take a breath into the present moment, keeping the gentle flow of in and out breath as your focus, watching the breath travel into the centre of your chest, your Heart space. Filling you with the energy of the present moment. Feel yourself become Centred.
Staying centred, use the breath to pull streams of the future you into your present moment, allow your senses and abilities to interpret this as is needed for you, just feeling into the concept of breathing your future self into your centre keeping on until you feel the connection within you.
Drift your focus back over the past memories, the beginning point you reflected upon now, and begin to breathe in the stream of consciousness carried within the memories. Use the in breath to bring them into your centre, then when you feel this connection begin to use your outbreath to release the version of you that you no longer need to hold on to. The past memories, relationships, anything that appeared in your reflections that no longer serves - use the out breath to release it.Â
Bring your focus back to your centre, check in, how do you feel? Did this practice serve you? Can you come into the simplicity of the breath to free yourself of all that isn't serving you with ease?
Take a moment now to ground yourself, a simple way is to take a cord from your centre, the centre of your chest & heart space and trace it down your column of light, down your legs and into your Earth Star Chakra. Allow the cord of light to anchor here for a moment before carrying on guiding it into the Earth. Deep down through the layers of Mother Earth, meeting her centre, feeling the roots within the layers of earth supporting you to ground and connect with this stable and supportive energy.
You may wish to journal or stay reflecting for a little longer.Â
