LONG PAUSE… My mind wants to scream,  That no one really gets,  The mountains I carry around.  My heart wants to cry, And give it all up, Walk away without a sound.  PAUSE… But instead, here I am, Trying to find peace, Believing the chaos will fade. I have to be willing, To sit in the fire, Without feeling dismayed.  PAUSE… So breathe with me now,  Slower and slower,  Let your breath calm you down.  Feel your mind ease,  From all of that stress, Feel yourself melt in the ground.  LONG PAUSE… Layer after layer, Slowly peels away, Releasing the mountains of pain.  Layer after layer, Slowly reveals,  The vulnerable me that remains.  PAUSE… Right here in this space, Naked and raw, I see what I need the most. And just then I feel, The arms of the Divine, Hug me like a beautiful ghost.  LONG PAUSE… She whispers her words, So I can feel loved, There’s comfort that she’s here to bring.  When you’re falling apart,  I’m right here with you, I’ll gather up everything.  PAUSE… I let myself cry,  I let myself go, I release it all out with each tear. The more that I free, Everything inside,  The more I feel light and clear.  LONG PAUSE… So breathe with me now,  Slower and slower,  Let healing cover you whole.  Feel your mind clear,  And dissolve what is left, The Universe is protecting your soul.  Namaste, Beautiful 💗💗💗 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.

LONG PAUSE Your breathing naturally slows, and your body sinks gently into the folds  of your bed. LONG PAUSE You keep breathing, becoming aware of your breath, and of the lightness of your body. It feels delicious. LONG PAUSE As you continue breathing slowly, comfortably, imagine yourself  in a warm shower with the beads of water streaming down your back. PAUSE The watery massage relaxes you, and lets your mind, as well as your muscles, ease up naturally. PAUSE You put your head  in the shower stream, and let the warm water droplets massage your scalp and neck. PAUSE After a few moments of relaxing in the steamy water, a vision appears. The steam of the shower transforms into mist of a forest. PAUSE You follow the mist in your vision, and it leads  you to the edge of a lake. PAUSE Slowly, you tip your toe into the lake. The magical waters send healing ripples of energy Through you.  PAUSE You descend into the lake, letting your body  be enveloped in healing. PAUSE Each drop of water that  touches you, renews you, restores your energy. PAUSE You gently roll onto your back, floating comfortably in the water. Your eyes scan the lush green forest circling the lake. You smile at the hidden gem of nature  that has revealed itself to you. PAUSE Gazing up at the powdery blue sky, you see dozens of  clouds like painted streams across a canvas. PAUSE Colorful birds fly in and out of the forest, chirping in joy and then soaring into the wispy clouds above. PAUSE A pink and green fish jumps, plopping into the water and sending bubbles to the surface  like secret smoke signals. PAUSE   In the distance, a mother deer and her fawn quietly lap up the water from the lake, then scamper off. PAUSE While floating on your back, you notice the sunlight filtering through the trees, each thread of light casting shadows  of leaves and trees. PAUSE While gazing at the sunlight, two brown squirrels chase each other in the trees, causing the sunlight to shimmy and shake as it reflects. PAUSE Slowly, you paddle  to the side of the lake where a large towel magically opens, waiting to embrace you. PAUSE The cushy towel folds around you, gently drying you and warming you, and you take moment  to thank the lake and the forest for all their beauty. PAUSE You snuggle deep in the towel And close your eyes. When you open them again, you are home in your own bathroom wrapped in a towel. PAUSE And though your time  at the forest lake has ended, the peace and beauty it brought rests comfortably inside you now and always.

LONG PAUSE Keep breathing. Allow yourself to feel  gentle lull of magic as it relaxes and enlightens you. LONG PAUSE Stay with the feeling of magic, as a welcome spell of serenity is cast upon you. LONG PAUSE Draw in another breath, And as you do, visualize yourself on horseback, on a snow white stallion, trotting through the forest in spring. PAUSE After a few moments, the horse slows  to a walk, and then stops, as if taking in  all the life of the forest. PAUSE A canopy of trees seems to part and opens into   a vibrant green clearing with a large rock positioned in the center. PAUSE The rock is heavy with gray and white notches and valleys carved around it. Tiny sprigs of grass grow at its base. PAUSE The rock is surrounded  By people, Men and women  dressed in gowns, suits of armor and even the clothes of peasants. PAUSE Then, you notice something odd. jutting up from the stone is a sword, a gleaming silver sword. PAUSE “Here ye, Here ye!” calls a man with a long dark beard. “Whosoever can removeth the sword, becomes the next ruler of the land.” PAUSE The man continues, “Only the bravest, wisest and most loyal and compassionate will be able to remove the sword.” PAUSE Still seated on your steed, you watch patiently, as many good men, and even women, go to the rock, grab the sword with white-knuckled hands,   and try to withdraw it. But the sword would not budge. PAUSE After a while, you dismount from the horse, lead her by the reins to a tree, where you gently  wrap the rein around the tree. You pet her nose lovingly, and rub her neck, Before moving closer  to the crowd. PAUSE Three others try their luck, but still, no one has retrieved the sword. you draw in a breath, deep and low, and then step forward. PAUSE “You?” says the man  with the beard. “Aye,” you reply with confidence. “Very well,” he says. PAUSE You draw in another deep, stabilizing breath and approach the rock. Placing your feet  against the bottom of the rock, you reach up, and with both hands encircling  the handle of the sword, you gently tug. PAUSE Every so gently, the sword releases  a few inches. gasps and claps rise from the crowd. PAUSE You nod to the crowd, and the reposition your footing. again, you reach and pull the sword. Again, it moves, slowly at first, until the rock releases it like butter. PAUSE Cheers and claps erupt from the crowd, as you raise the sword above. There is a power in the sword, an energy of magic. And you know that this is now yours. PAUSE The man with a beard comes to shake your hand and to place a golden crown upon your head. But it is the sword’s magic, it’s promise of power for good that moves you most. PAUSE You bow to the crowd, and then find your horse, mount her, and ride toward the sun, with a crown upon your head, a powerful sword in your hand, and magic in your heart.

LONG PAUSE Once you’ve found the perfect place in your bed, the one where  you’re the most comfy, tune into yourself. LONG PAUSE And as you tune  into yourself, you pick up  delicate vibrations, like an antenna. LONG PAUSE The vibrations murmur within you, and soon,  You feel your own vibration Connecting– Two frequencies aligning. PAUSE The vibration changes slightly, and with it, an image of a Victorian home lights up before you, and then gently draws you in.  PAUSE Standing on the porch of the home, the door opens, inviting you into the home and into a feeling of love flowing.  PAUSE The love envelopes you, creating a sense of welcome and a desire to learn more. PAUSE You feel comfortable and well received in the home, and a sofa with curled arms calls you to sit down. PAUSE You settle into the sofa,  and in seconds, the house ignites with life– with couples dancing, laughter in the air,  and champagne flowing freely in glasses. PAUSE You walk to the kitchen and are greeted by  several women bustling about, preparing trays and trays of food. PAUSE The air is overflowing with the smells of  fresh bread, sweet pies, roasted Chicken, and braised beef.  PAUSE The women wipe their hands on their aprons, and turn to greet you  for just a second. PAUSE Then, an older woman with gray hair, claps her hands, summoning everyone back to work. PAUSE As you leave the kitchen, one woman hands you a golden roll, fresh-baked in the oven. PAUSE The roll melts like butter in your mouth, and you savor every morsel even licking your fingers. PAUSE As you saunter through the house, you come across more rooms filled with people laughing, eating, drinking and dancing. PAUSE At the other end of the house, a pair of French doors open, leading you into a lavish garden. PAUSE Rows of daffodils, tulips and teacup roses, greet you with their striking colors and delightful aromas. PAUSE At the far end of the garden stands a young woman  in an ornate bridal gown, of white organdy  and tulle with drapes of lace. PAUSE Her face is aglow, as she gazes at the man who has just become  her husband. PAUSE They both join hands  and walk past you to a room where  they waltz together. PAUSE As they pass you, they nod and smile, warmly acknowledging you  as their guest. PAUSE After a few moments of watching the couple dance, something inside you lets you know your time at the wedding Is coming to a close. PAUSE You naturally return to the sofa sit quietly and wait, while the house returns to a peaceful silence. The men, women, and children fade into the twilight. PAUSE Yet, although the ancestors have left, their abundance of love and acceptance  still permeates the air and in your heart. PAUSE And, as you walk out the door, you carry the love and acceptance with you.
