A Meditation for You and for Now
The bottom line about meditation is this: communication.
A meditation can be done anywhere. But the best location is the one where you are in a quiet place, uninterrupted, and where you can relax and feel safe.
A good meditation posture is the one where you sit or lay down with your eyes closed in whatever position is most comfortable for you.
Like other forms of communication, the more you practice meditation, the more you will be receptive to the energy and greater awareness of the activity.
At the beginning of your meditation, you may want to light a candle, ring a bell, burn incense, play soothing music. You may hold a meaningful store or other symbol such as a cross or star.
Close your eyes and focus your breathing as you inhale and exhale slowly and deeply. Think about your breath as you inhale and exhale. Breathe slowly and deeply for the next several minutes while you allow your sacred self to take control. This will let you calm your sensory perceptions.
Notice how your body relaxes with each breath.
This quiet time is a priority. With every breath, you relax a bit more deeply. Light and energy and positive thoughts enter your body with every inhale.
Allow a sense of well-being and gentle relaxation to cover your entire self.
Toxins, anxiety, and frustrations leave your body with each exhale. This is a good time to discard discomfort. Relaxation replaces the toxins with every breath.
Breathe in healing light and warmth from the crown of your head down through your body – your upper chest, your back and spine, down your abdomen and pelvic areas, hips, thighs, and down your legs to your feet.
Your breath will guide this light to encircle your body and circulate around your body several times.
When you are ready, gather the energy at your feet and let it flow up your body to your head.
See this energy flowing out from your head as a fountain of light. It gathers at your feet in a pool of energy and then flows back up to the crown of your head.
Repeat this fountain flow several times – as long as you like.
When you are relaxed, comfortable, and energized, it is time to leave the meditation and return to the room.
Open your eyes. Gently shake your arms, hands, legs, and feet.
Now, smile, knowing that you can return to this space whenever you want.
5 Ways Make Your Life Better and Easier in 2024, Starting NOW
NOW IS THE TIME
Take a time out to reflect on your journey in 2023. I know. I know. The year isn’t even over yet and what surprises are waiting for us?
But, spend a few minutes reviewing the past year to prepare yourself for 2024.
Now, spend a few more minutes to celebrate the new year coming up. Cook a yummy meal. And, while you’re at it, turn on some good music and dance a bit in the kitchen.
Prepare for the new year with a fresh start and include, front and center, bold capitals, your GRATITUDE. How far have you come this year?
When you are celebrate the coming of 2024, include a new project. Pick something to open your mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual selves to new ideas.
STEP 1
NOW IS THE TIME
Things you may do to get ready for 2024 can include –
smudge your space,
set up a gratitude altar,
Reiki everything.
Send a ‘thank you’ card or note to someone you haven’t checked in with in too long ago
Collect a box of items to give away or release to the universe.
While you’re focusing on these things (and others you’ve thought up on your own), honor your intuition. After all, your intuition is the voice of your soul talking with you.
STEP 2
NOW IS THE TIME
On another day, as you think of 2024 –
light a candle.
Pick up a project you worked on months or weeks ago and then set down.
Think kind thoughts for yourself by writing a list of your very best qualities.
Take a few moments to hear from your deepest wisdom.
Give or receive a reflexology or other healing session.
STEP 3
NOW IS THE TIME
On yet another day or evening, as you welcome 2024 –
Connect yourself with your physical surroundings.
They, along with your physical self, will be supporting you in the coming year.
Open yourself to being and seeing your surroundings. Gain inspiration from your
spiritual self to support your environment.
Do you have an occasional energy deficit?
Never forget that your energy is boundless. All you need is within you.
You may not feel you have all the energy you want. But, never forget,
everything that you need is right there, in front of you.
Take several deep breaths. The air around you brings whispers as it nudges you along to the new year. It brings truth, inspiration, and new ideas for 2024.
When the air brings its gifts, the element of fire comes along to help you.
STEP 4
NOW IS THE TIME
Your free will always boosts your journey. That is no exception as you enter 2024.
As the new year progresses, you may gain a deeper understanding of what is happening if you journal about events and people that make you the most uncomfortable.
Don’t forget to enhance your meditations and journaling with your favorite crystals.
STEP 5
NOW IS THE TIME
In 2024, stay in touch with your intuition:
Go for a swim.
Take a bath or shower.
Meditate while sitting on the earth.
Go for a walk in nature.
NOW IS THE TIME
