Just a few clicks makes it easy for you to listen on your favorite podcast player.  Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Gather yourself, and take a moment to get comfortable in your bed. LONG PAUSE Become aware of your back, as it presses gently against the sheets, sinking into them. LONG PAUSE And feel the rest  of your body dip, ever so slightly, into the softness of the bed. LONG PAUSE Now, see if you can imagine an electric guitar playing just a few notes of reggae softly in the distance. PAUSE The notes have a rhythm, a rhythm that dissolves into you, and you feel your body begin to sway. PAUSE And,after a moment, you hear a soft drum joining the bass guitar, and the rhythm feels  stronger in you. PAUSE And, together, music floats through you, gently bending and swerving your body to the rhythm. PAUSE Now, see if you can imagine being draped in a cotton dress with the colors of the ocean sweeping through it. PAUSE And the dress ebbs and flows with you and the music, and catches the breeze like a wave. PAUSE While dancing you look down at your feet, as the tug of the music  moves them on  a powdery beach. PAUSE The warm sand kisses the bottom of your feet, soft and tender, and lets you move freely and comfortably to the beat. PAUSE And while dancing, a little girl hands you a purple orchid  for your hair. PAUSE And you place the orchid behind your ear, as the sun  glistens between the stands of your hair. . PAUSE The little girl  takes your hands, and together, you weave in and out  to the vibrant pulse of the music. PAUSE After a few moments, the little girl runs down to the beach, picking up shells every few steps and still dancing.. PAUSE You turn back to the band that pauses, while one of the players, talks in a voice as melodious as his guitar. PAUSE  When his lilting voice stops, you hear the unmistakable cracking of drumsticks, and the whine of the guitar. PAUSE And then, the crowd  around you cheers, as the band plays some Bob Marley, and everyone dances. PAUSE Laughter and shouts of joy permeate the air, and run through your body like the infectious beat of the music. PAUSE And as you dance, you notice that  every breath you take is scented with coconut and pineapple  that tickles your nose. PAUSE And as you twirl with and around the others, time stops; there is only now. PAUSE And, after a while, the sun dims and slips  beneath the horizon, just beyond the purpose ocean. PAUSE And the music  keeps on playing, and the people dancing, in the light of tiki torches and a pearl moon. PAUSE After a while, the vibrant energy inside you starts to shift to a feeling of calm and contentment. PAUSE The music slows, and the crowd begins to thin until the last pulse of the drum   is heard. PAUSE So, you smile  and wave to the man with the electric guitar. And he winks and grins  for he knows you’ll come again. PAUSE And you walk away from the tiki torches into the Jamaican night, midnight blue and breezy with the aroma of ocean salt on your skin. PAUSE And as you walk down the beach feeling contented and blessed, the reggae keeps playing, every-so-softly in your heart. Now and always.

Meditation: Generations of Lines

Meditation: Generations of Lines

Join Premium! Ready for an ad-free meditation experience? Join Premium now and get every episode from ALL of our podcasts completely ad-free now! Just a few clicks makes it easy for you to listen on your favorite podcast player.  Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Get comfy in your bed or chair and breathe in a deep, cleansing breath. LONG PAUSE Take a moment and center yourself, letting all the cares of the day just slip away. LONG PAUSE It starts with a single stroke, a simple line across the canvas marking the beginning of a an idea, a creation. PAUSE And the line may slender, like a hair, or thicker  like a ruler, or thicker still, like a plank of lumber. PAUSE See if you can imagine, the line taking a shape, a shape all its own. a shape that sets the tone for what is to come. PAUSE The line may be straight like  an arrow, or bent slightly like the warrior’s bow, or deeply curved  like rainbow arching across the sky. PAUSE The line may wiggle like an earthworm or jut out like a  pier on a lake or softly wave like the ocean. PAUSE And imagine now that the line takes a color. It may be black  like the mysterious night, or yellow like corn in mid summer, or purple like a garden violet. PAUSE The line stands strong in its space, in its shape, knowing what it is, and wondering if there’s more. PAUSE Then imagine if you can another line appearing and for a moment, the first line pauses, questioning the second line. PAUSE  Then the second line takes shape, pirouetting across  the canvas  with a personality all its own. PAUSE And the first line sees the second and realizes that it, too, can pirouette. PAUSE So, together, the lines twirl in and out and around all the corners of the canvas. PAUSE And imagine for a moment, that a black circle joins the lines, stationing itself  in the core of the canvas. PAUSE And the circle stands alone. There are no lines inside it, just outside it. PAUSE And the circle  wonders why it's different, why it stands alone and away from the lines. PAUSE Then a new line appears, a line that pierces the circle, cutting across it  with a splash of sunset orange. PAUSE And then the two original lines join the new line, pirouetting around the circle and darting in and out  of its center with color. PAUSE Now imagine a triangle of green joins the canvas, with three lines  all connected. PAUSE And the triangle looks around wondering where all the other lines are, wondering if it’s meant to be alone. PAUSE The other lines pause for a moment, then swerve toward the triangle  outlining its shape. PAUSE The other lines  add bright colors to the green triangle, yellow, purple, orange and black. PAUSE Then the other lines dance around triangle, creating a vibration of colorful shadows supporting it.   PAUSE Now imagine, if you can, A blue square balancing on  one corner lands on the canvas. PAUSE And the square wants to move just like all the lines on the canvas. PAUSE So, the lines band together and begin  jutting out from each corner of the square Into the center of the canvas. PAUSE And with each line extending beyond the corner the square feels  like it’s moving,  rapidly through space. PAUSE And the lines bounce off of each other and jump on top of  each other like tumblers in the circus. PAUSE Now, imagine if you can, this circus of colors and lines slowing down, stepping back for just a moment. PAUSE And as they take a step away  from their playground, they see something amazing, a magnificent piece of artwork that began as a single, black line.

Meditation: Balloon Ride to a Shaman

Meditation: Balloon Ride to a Shaman

Just a few clicks makes it easy for you to listen on your favorite podcast player.  Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Take a moment  and imagine that  your thoughts falling away  like a waterfall of sugar. LONG PAUSE Breathe,  and feel yourself  turning inward, centering and becoming aware of your body. LONG PAUSE And now, turn your attention to your neck and shoulders, breathing into them, softening them from all the day’s tension. LONG PAUSE Allow your focus  to shift to you back where you breathe and let the muscles melt into the comfy sheets. PAUSE And, now, let your  mind focus on  breathing through the tension, in your hips,  so they gently and comfortably open. PAUSE And with the next breath, feel the pressure  and tension easing from  your legs and feet so they feel light and relaxed. PAUSE Now, see if you can imagine sinking into a fluffy, warm jacket as you stand  in the chilled,pre-dawn air  just before the sun  peeks over the horizon. PAUSE And you snuggle  into your jacket, as a fire blazes a few feet in front of you, a fire filling a hot air balloon. PAUSE The fire’s heat sets your face aglow, with its yellow-orange flame shooting into the balloon. . PAUSE And while gazing at the flame, you notice someone  adjusting the basket to the balloon, setting it so it’s  ready for its next adventure. PAUSE The horizon glows  with purples, pinks, and orange, as the morning sun makes her entrance. PAUSE And the sun greets you with the chance to look at the balloon surging some  and then falling back, as it finds its rhythm of filling. PAUSE  Your balloon is  the color of canaries, and oranges, and the deep, blue sea, with a stripe of fire engine red. PAUSE The balloon begins to rise with the fire still glowing  into its bowels. It is nearly ready. PAUSE See if you can imagine your hot air balloon positioned upright, facing the morning sky, ready for you. PAUSE So, you climb over the side of the basket, and watch as the  ropes are released as you float into the  cool morning air. PAUSE Now, imagine if you can, floating above the red rocks of New Mexico, red rocks dazzling  with color in  the early morning sun. PAUSE And as you float, the balloon glides above the belly of a canyon, a canyon with red rocks like sentries protecting it on each side. PAUSE And then the balloon  draws near the rocks, close enough  so you can see a cave carved into the side of the cliffs. PAUSE Now, imagine if you can that you see a man sitting in a circle of stones just inside the cave. PAUSE And instinctively,  you know this man is a shaman, a shaman practicing his healing art. PAUSE The balloon pauses, and you can hear  the shaman playing his small drum and chanting. PAUSE You may not understand  his words, but they resonate with you, and send a strong healing  vibration through you. PAUSE And the shaman sees you from the corner of his eye and then turns to  play his drum  and chant before you. PAUSE And while the shaman plays, you feel the healing and the blessing from his chant opening you, moving you, with a joy that lights you up from the inside. PAUSE When the shaman finishes, he waves his hand, and the balloon begins to drift back to where it started. PAUSE And as the shaman dissolves Into the distance, the morning sun shines bright and warm and lights the world below. PAUSE As you float back, imagine feeling an incredible peace in you, a peace that emanates  from your heart  and spreads throughout  your body.

LONG PAUSE Now, see if you can imagine a forest still and dark where creatures live in harmony and magic really lurks. PAUSE You take a step and then another into the forest deep; it’s full of life and energy when the rest of the world is asleep. PAUSE And before your eyes true magic appears, in stardust silver and gold. A unicorn bows before you, a wonder to behold. PAUSE And the unicorn lets you on his back, and prances through the trees, until you come to some tiny houses and some dwarves who look quite pleased. PAUSE An elder dwarf  with wire spectacles offers a cup of tea. You take a sip and smile; The taste is heavenly. PAUSE And the dwarf tugs his beard delighted you like the tea. Then he and all the other dwarves go back to working busily. PAUSE So, the unicorn trots on through the woods slow enough for you to see that the trees and plants and animals sparkle magically. PAUSE And as you ride,  a thunderous sound takes you by surprise. A giant peers behind a tree then walks before your eyes. PAUSE He’s tall and strong with brown moppy hair  and stories in his deep blue eyes, and you know that if you asked him, what he shared would be truly wise. PAUSE He reaches down and offers his hand, so you can take a look. You step on his hand and rise above to see the magic in the woods. PAUSE  You see animals  and enchanted creatures going about their lives, building houses, preparing food and sharing all their time. PAUSE And giant sets you  on the back of the unicorn, and you both canter away, so you can see some more of the woods before the end of day. PAUSE After a while, a creature crosses your path. He’s half man on top and horse beyond that. PAUSE And, the creature approaches; firm, but cautiously. He’s a centaur protecting the forest and all its mysteries. PAUSE And the centaur raises his lance to let you pass, then salutes you as well. You smile and thank him and bid him a warm farewell. PAUSE And the unicorn gallops farther into the heart of the trees where you come across  a dragon who greets you with gentle ease. PAUSE The dragon is  the color of the sea with eyes like amber fire, and she beckons you to take a ride to soar higher and higher. PAUSE So you jump on the dragon and hold on tight  around her scaly neck. And up you go until the unicorn looks like a tiny speck. PAUSE And as the dragon  spreads her wings, you feel the air upon your face. You say goodbye to the forest this amazing, magical place. PAUSE The dragon stops  at the forest's edge to let you off her back. You thank her kindly and head home  along the trodden path. PAUSE And as you leave the forest dark, it’s become a part of you. There’s now a spark of magic that leaves you feeling new.

LONG PAUSE Now, take a moment and gently scan your body. You may notice some areas of tension and stress, and that’s okay. Feel yourself breathe out, And release it out of you.  Breathe, And release.  Breathe, And relax.  LONG PAUSE See if you can connect with your heartbeat, hearing its gentle rhythm  in the distance. LONG PAUSE As you take another breath, the rhythm softly fades, leaving you comfortable and safe  in your bed. LONG PAUSE Now, picture a game  of tug-of-war, with you on one side grasping a thick, tightly coiled rope  that goes on forever. PAUSE Some days, you may feel like you’re pulling at a that rope, and it seems to pull  with a great power against you. PAUSE So take a deep breath, and see if you can imagine loosening your grip on the rope, gingerly letting your fingers go. PAUSE Try to imagine each finger raising slowly, and each time a finger lifts, the tension in the rope releases. PAUSE And with each finger that floats upward, you notice that the rope  starts to lightly fall away. and your hands are free. PAUSE Now, picture yourself placing a hand over your heart, a hand that feels free from the rope of tension. PAUSE And, as you touch your heart,  breathe in slowly and let the calmness radiate from your heart. PAUSE While touching your heart, see if you can imagine waves of peace  flowing from your heart out into your body. PAUSE As the waves move through you, your body pulses just a bit, as it syncs to the waves, and then releases all the stress it holds. PAUSE The heart waves are flowing into your head and neck, Sending out their calming energy. PAUSE Each rhythmic wave gently encourages the muscles to unfreeze,  to thaw in relaxation. PAUSE Now, picture the heart wave traveling down your back, passing on waves of  light and healing. PAUSE And peaceful waves touch all the muscles in the back, softly uncoiling them  and melting them like butter. PAUSE Take a moment now and breathe, and feel the warm relaxation in the muscles touched by your heart wave. PAUSE And as you breathe again, imagine the heart wave pulsing, sending healing signals  to the chest and arms. PAUSE And while your chest and arms sink softly into your bed, visualize the heart wave moving toward your center. PAUSE The waves send a healing hum into your core, opening it, relaxing it. PAUSE And the soft vibrations deepen your relaxation. You feel your body is letting go, your mind letting go, into sleep. PAUSE The heart wave is sending its healing vibrations to your abdomen and lower back, letting them soften and gently give in. PAUSE Take a minute and indulge  in the buttery feeling your muscles are experiencing, as tension continues to dissolve.  PAUSE And now watch as the heart wave moves into your upper legs, those soldiers you stand on, now softening so that they feel cushy and relaxed. PAUSE And with another gentle breath, your heart wave expands into  the knees and calves flowing like gentle water, moving tension and stress away. PAUSE Now, see if you can imagine  the heart wave radiating gently  into your ankles and feet, taking pressure off of them, so they feel open and relaxed. PAUSE Now give yourself permission to acknowledge that your body is letting go,  releasing into relaxation.

Gently become aware  of your surroundings, all the sounds, smells and sensations. LONG PAUSE Now, breathe in deeply and richly, and see if you can imagine an energy field, a glowing mist, all around you. LONG PAUSE Take a moment and tune into  your energy field, noticing its colors. PAUSE Imagine the blues, greens, purples,  the yellows, reds, and oranges, colors from your  physical, mental, emotional  and spiritual self all floating  around your body. PAUSE There’s even  a shimmering white, sailing in and out, like angel wings dipped in stars. PAUSE You breathe, and the colors twirl in and around each other, like ribbons in a cosmic dance. PAUSE The colors sometimes separate, sometimes harmonize together, like an artist’s pastels, or rainbow ice cream  melting in summer. PAUSE Now, take in a deep breath, and, as the breath  opens your lungs, observe the colors  drawing closer together and dancing faster. PAUSE Now, gently breathe again.  and while releasing the breath, observe the colors  expanding and contracting, like they’re alive,  and breathing with you.

LONG PAUSE Let your neck muscles melt into your pillow, While the rest of you Sinks deeply and comfortably into the folds of your bed LONG PAUSE As you melt into your bed, feel yourself become one with the bed, completely relaxed. LONG PAUSE Now, see if you can imagine a solo raindrop, iridescent in the sunlight, descending to the ground. PAUSE The raindrop pauses briefly, bubbling up like a crystal dome, before magically moving– rolling through the grass. PAUSE And as the raindrop rolls, It seems to be looking for something, something that is missing. PAUSE Now see if you can imagine connecting with the raindrop  as it stops at a golf course and asks the short, stiff grass, “Are you my tribe?” PAUSE The bright green blades of grass, stand firm in the soil and prepare to whisper their truth. You and the raindrop listen. PAUSE “No, we are not your tribe, but early in the morning, we wake and find you  nourishing us, and shining with us in the light of the sun. PAUSE Now, picture if you can,  the little raindrop smiling and thanking the golf grass for sharing, and the golf grass  wishing the raindrop  luck on its journey. PAUSE Now, take a minute and breathe in, and see if you can imagine the little raindrop and you rolling before a giant redwood tree. PAUSE As the raindrop approaches the majestic redwood, tall and powerful, it calls out, “Are you my tribe?” PAUSE And the redwood bends, ever so slightly  to see you and the tiny raindrop and shakes its leaves “no.” PAUSE Then the redwood speaks in a voice that  rumbles through the air. “From time-to-time, though, you come to me with many friends and bathe my roots and leaves, so, thank you.” PAUSE You and the little raindrop smile  and thank the redwood for sharing. And the redwood wishes you both  luck on your journey. PAUSE So, imagine if you can, that you and the little raindrop keep rolling until you come across a turtle. PAUSE You both approach  the turtle, with its greenish-brown shell and bits of algae on barnacles  sticking on the back. PAUSE You and the raindrop wait until the turtle slooowly turns and faces you and then you and the raindrop ask, “Are you my tribe? PAUSE The turtle pulls its head back in the shell and pauses for  many minutes before shaking its head “no”. PAUSE You and the raindrop are about to leave when the turtle calls out. “You are my life force and allow me to eat and travel the world. I will take you to your tribe.” PAUSE Joy fills you and the little raindrop and you shimmy back and forth  with excitement, before jumping on the turtle’s back. PAUSE On the turtle’s back,  you and the little raindrop lumber through the grass, passing mushrooms and ants and flowers until you came to the ocean. PAUSE “Are we here?” asks the little raindrop. The turtle bobs his head “yes” and lets you and the little raindrop  slide off his back  before he walks into the ocean. PAUSE You and the little raindrop stand together watching as the waves splash onto the sand and then roll back into the ocean. PAUSE “Are you my tribe?” asks the raindrop. Then, a single wave  rises above you both, magically pausing in the air. “Yes, sisters, we are.” PAUSE You and the little raindrop  study the wave and began to roll closer to her. PAUSE The wave appears again, and you and the little raindrop thank her. “We’ve traveled a long time  to find our tribe.” PAUSE  💗💗💗 Check out all the deals from our incredible sponsors here! --> https://womensmeditationnetwork.com/sponsors 💗💗💗 Check out all of our other podcasts at https://womensmeditationnetwork.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
