Morning Meditation for Women

Hey, it's Katie. I'm so grateful you're here! No matter where you're listening from, I hope this moment brings you a little bit more peace. I'm so grateful you've been listening to our meditations. I've been thinking a lot lately about how, in order to be the best versions of ourselves, we need to constantly change. If we can agree that our number one priority in life is to know ourselves (so we may consciously create this lovely life of ours according to our own desires and rules), then can we also agree that there will be times when knowing ourselves requires us to undo ourselves? To undo norms and habits we have that no longer are working for us. To undo beliefs that are not in line with what we want to create. To undo ways of being that aren’t…quite…right anymore. “What you think you are is a belief to be undone.” ~ A Course in Miracles Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

PAUSE Keep breathing, and let yourself just relax, just feel at peace. Enjoy it. PAUSE Now, imagine, if you can a scene from winter. Tall tree branches, bare and spiking toward the sky. A gray aura gently wrapped around the world. A chill embedded in the air. And, yet, there is a restfulness about the world, a quiet peace. PAUSE Now, imagine a time in your life when you needed to give yourself a space like winter, a space to rest, or heal, or just be at peace. PAUSE Now, breathe, and while breathing, set an intention to allow yourself to experience winter whenever you need to. PAUSE Breathe. And, imagine, if you can, a vibrant spring blooming all around you. Trees coming back to life with buds on them. Flowers opening in a kaleidoscope of color. A hint of warmth in the air. PAUSE Now, imagine a time in your life when you needed some energy like spring– feeling alive and vibrant. PAUSE Now, breathe, and while breathing, set an intention to allow yourself to experience spring whenever you need to. PAUSE Breathe, and, as you do, imagine a warm, fun-filled summer. A time for gatherings such as picnics and barbecues. A time for vacations. A time to laugh and be outside. PAUSE Now, imagine a time in your life when you needed the fun and whimsy of summer– a time to just play or to get away. PAUSE Now, breathe, and while breathing, set an intention to allow yourself to experience summer whenever you need to. PAUSE Breathe, and, as you do, imagine a beautiful autumn, with colored leaves, delicious apple and pumpkin, and feelings of joy and anticipation of the holidays. PAUSE Now, breathe, and while breathing, set an intention to allow yourself to experience autumn whenever you need to. PAUSE Take a moment and reflect on the seasons- how each season brings its own energy to you. And, remember, the four seasons don't just live outside you; they live within you. All you have to do is call on them anytime you need their energy. Now and always.

PAUSE And, while in this place of calm, imagine digging up a time capsule. PAUSE Take a minute to observe the time capsule, looking at its color and shape. PAUSE After observing it for a minute, you notice how to open it. You pull a latch, and the capsule opens like a spaceship. PAUSE You place your hand into the time capsule and pull out an item from your past– a time of great change in your life. PAUSE Looking closely at the item, think back to the time period when the change occurred. Was it an easy change, or one filled with anxiety and pain? Allow yourself to keep distance from any emotions related to the change. PAUSE Now, reach your hand into the time capsule, and pull out another item from a time of change in your life. Again, keeping your emotional distance, think about this change. Did you handle it better than the other change? Or, maybe you handled it differently? Reflect on the two changes. PAUSE Now, as you reach your hand into the time capsule again, You pull out an item with a note. Interestingly, the item is not related to a change. It is a stopwatch. PAUSE You open the note and read: “This stopwatch will help you whenever change is too much. Just start it when you feel overwhelmed, and watch as your feelings fade with the passing of time.” “Then stop the watch when you feel better.” PAUSE Now, visualize taking the stopwatch, and putting in an imaginary pocket that will always be with you. So, the next time that change is hard, you just need to pull out the stopwatch, start it, and watch time and your stress pass by.

Breathe, and go deeper into yourself. PAUSE Now, allow yourself to back to a time that was fun and full of joy. It could be recently, or it could be many years ago. PAUSE Give yourself permission to see yourself at this time. See how happy you were. What were you doing? Who was with you? PAUSE Now, take a deep breath, and let those feelings rise up in you now. feel that happiness. Stay with the happiness. PAUSE Now, breathe, and let that image fade into the background. And, as it fades, another time when you were happy takes its place. PAUSE Again, allow the feelings of this happy time to become part of you now. Observe what you were doing and who was with you. PAUSE Take a deep breath, and let this happy time gently fade into the background. PAUSE Now, give yourself a minute to reflect on these experiences. What was similar about them? What was different? What can you use to boost your mood? PAUSE Now, take a moment, and acknowledge that these memories, your happy memories, have the power to boost your happiness any time you feel down. Remind yourself that you have the power to bring them out Any time you need them.

Breathe in real deep, And fill yourself up, Let the air clear out your mind. PAUSE… Relax into the waves, Your breathing ebbs and flows, You’re slowing down, down, down. Release all the tension, With every exhale, And watch as it falls to the ground. LONG PAUSE… From this place of rest, See if you can feel, The gentle shimmers of light. The rainbow peeks in, Easing into your dreams, Accompanying you all night. PAUSE… Mystical and wild, The rainbow seems to glow. Where it touches the Earth, No one seems to know.

PAUSE… The violet radiates and flows, From the crown of your head, Spirituality and enlightenment. Take a deep breath, And then let it go, The rainbow leaves you content.

Let the breath radiate throughout your body, opening areas of stress. PAUSE Now, see that breath opening and relaxing your mind, creating pathways of connections while you’re calm and peaceful. PAUSE Take a minute, And, imagine, if you can, A clock on the wall. A clock with hour, second, and minute hands PAUSE Keep watching the clock, observing as each second and minute advance. If a stray thought creeps into your mind, gently dust it away and re-focus on the clock. PAUSE Now, observe your level of focus. Are you able to dust away extraneous thoughts? Or, do they keep interrupting you? Avoid judging yourself or stressing over your thoughts. Just observe, breathe, and focus. PAUSE Take a deep breath, and shift your focus away from the clock. Observe how your body feels. Are you less stressed? Continue reflecting on how focused you were watching the clock. PAUSE Breathe deeply again. And, this time, visualize how productive you would be with this level of focus throughout your day. PAUSE Now, allow yourself to think about how much less stressed you would be if you practiced this daily. What do you think? PAUSE Now, imagine having a secret toolbox in your mind, A toolbox you can open at will. And, inside, the toolbox is your mindfulness practice– your clock to focus on. Look closely at the toolbox and observe how you open it. PAUSE Take a deep breath now, and acknowledge the power of your mindfulness toolbox.

Pause, and breathe. PAUSE And, as you breathe, take a moment to let go of all those distracting thoughts and stressors– the ones you’ve been dragging with you. Just let them go. PAUSE Have you ever had a moment when you thought, “Time is going too quickly. I won’t have time to do all I want to do in life?” PAUSE If you’ve felt that way, it’s time to refocus. So, take a minute, breathe in deep, and prepare to shift. PAUSE Now, visualize, if you can, your body, strong and healthy. And while focused on your healthy body, imagine a calendar in the background, turning from year-to-year. PAUSE And all the time the calendar turns, your body stays healthy and strong.

This feeling of being unsettled, Is forcing me to pause. PAUSE What was the drop that started, This tsunami of anger and pain? Perhaps it doesn’t matter, What’s risen now needs a name. PAUSE It tingles and it hiccups, Shards of glass in my throat. All I can do is sit with it, Unpack it, and emote. PAUSE Slowing, slowing, slowing down, Detaching from thoughts. Calming, calming, calming down, Breathing unties the knots. LONG PAUSE As the moments whisper by, Discomfort slowly gives way, To the truth of what is going on, There’s a part in it I play. PAUSE With gentle grace, I explore myself, The stories, the ego, the words. Let me see, What love would do, What solution now occurs. PAUSE Strip away the pain, Strip away the fault, Dear universe, show me how, To dissolve this dark discomfort, As love infuses me now. LONG PAUSE There it is, The seed of peace, That knows no matter what, I’ll be okay, I’ll learn from this, I’ll transcend this painful rut. PAUSE I end this practice knowing that, There’s actions I must take. Forgiveness, softness, gentle words, Admitting my mistake. PAUSE So breathe deep now, Bring hand to heart, And know that you are loved. This moment is, A brand new start, Feel the love in you flood.

PAUSE Now, give yourself permission to safely and comfortably submerge into the ocean. Know that you are warm and comfortable and can breathe with ease. PAUSE And while submerged, a creature appears. A creature with silky tentacles flowing behind it like the train of a bride. PAUSE Light reflects off the luminous creature, along with a kaleidoscope of ethereal colors such as pearl, blue, and purple. It is a jellyfish, a creature both real and surreal at the same time. PAUSE You observe the jellyfish, as it contracts and glides, contracts and glides. It is both fragile and strong at the same time. PAUSE Moments later, the jellyfish stops gliding, and just floats hovering like a celestial being in the deep blue of the ocean. PAUSE As you watch the jellyfish, you are struck by how this iridescent creature– Just stops. Just takes a breaks. And feels no pressure to resume swimming until it's ready. There is something powerful for you in this awareness. PAUSE So, breathe. Breathe and bring the spirit of the jellyfish into your consciousness with an intention. “I will give myself permission to stop and take a break.” Now, sit with the intention. PAUSE Let it really become part of you, so that at any time you feel the need for a break, you will act the like the jellyfish and give yourself that break.

And take a moment of silence to just observe your thoughts. PAUSE Now, breathe again, and visualize a beautiful woven basket where you place all those thoughts in it, so you are ready for meditation. PAUSE Take a moment, and envision yourself on a beach just comfortably sitting and taking in the surroundings. PAUSE And in the distance, you see a group of brown pelicans bobbing up and down in the water enjoying their time together quietly PAUSE A little while later, the pelicans lift out of the water and form a V, as they circle around the beach. There is no squawking or noise. It’s as if they all just connected and understood. You understand and feel the beauty in that. PAUSE As you continue to watch the pelicans, you notice their patient approach to catching their food. They fly a few feet above the water, Gazing into it, waiting for the right opportunity. Then, when the opportunity arises, they dive. They scoop up a fish with their beaks, and tip back their necks to swallow it. They return to patiently flying and looking for more food together. PAUSE Moments later, the pelicans change directions and fly out toward the horizon, the wings open and gliding, forming a silhouette against the sun. PAUSE Now, draw in a deep breath, and let the energy of the pelicans into you. Feel their patience and connectedness to each other. PAUSE Now, take a moment, and allow yourself to create an intention from the pelican’s energy. “I will approach life with patience for myself and others.” PAUSE Draw in another breath, and let the intention really into your heart. As it settles there, know that you can access it, and the essence of the pelican, at any time. It is yours always.

PAUSE Breathe deeply once more, and as you do, let your mind open to new possibilities. PAUSE Now, imagine, if you can, sitting on the edge of a dock when a wrinkly, whiskered face with soulful eyes pops out of the water. It’s a manatee. a gray, billowy manatee. PAUSE And, while watching the manatee, you become aware of its friendliness. It seems like it smiles at you, and you smile back. PAUSE The manatee moves with a slow gracefulness. It leads with its gentle spirit, stopping and slowing for other fish, or to pop its head out again and say, “Hi” again to you. PAUSE Now, imagine if you can, feeling a sense of connectedness to the manatee. Take a moment and feel the creature’s gentle spirit, its innate kindness and peace in you. Hold onto that feeling. PAUSE After a few moments, the manatee submerges, and then in a languid glide, moves out to sea. PAUSE Yet, as the manatee swims off, something of its spirit stays with you. In that moment, you feel a change. PAUSE Now, draw in a deep breath, and as you do, feel the kindness and gentleness of the manatee settling in you. Breathe again, Allow yourself to create an intention based on the manatee’s spirit. “I will embrace a life of kindness and gentleness.” PAUSE Let that intention sink into you and be your guide for today and all days that follow. With that intention leading you, greater peace and harmony will naturally become part of your life.

PAUSE… This energy treatment will help soothe your nerves, Release any tension and stress. Breathe with me now. Take a nice long slow deep breath in, And exhale through your mouth and release.

Feel free to place any special intention in your own mind, And we call this forth for the highest and greatest good. PAUSE… As you begin to settle in deeper and deeper, It may be difficult to let go. Feel the back of your head, Surrender into the surface your lying on, So that you feel completely held and supported. Todays healing treatment will feel like a fresh new day, Releasing any negativity and bringing in positive beautiful feelings LONG PAUSE… Begin at the tips of your toes. Feel your feet and the heals placed on the floor or bed relax. Allow your legs to completely let go of any tension or any holding. Notice your ankles soften, your shins and calves melt, Your knees relax, your upper legs and hips surrender, Your lower back lets go of so much tension your holding, Your belly soft and sweet. PAUSE… Relax any tension in your upper chest and shoulders, And down your arms, Your throat and neck soften, And your face is completely relaxed. PAUSE… I know you’ve been holding so many thoughts in your mind, That's caused so much stress and anxiety. But in this moment feel at the top of your head, As I place my hands, this beautiful warm healing light. Go within your body and begin to notice, All the many places that are stuck or blocked. And this light will travel to all of them for balance and peace. PAUSE… Explore with me now as you go within your body, And notice any areas that are holding this tension. It may be a feeling, a knowingness, Or perhaps you see it as a gray mist. This Reiki energy pours in from the top of your head, It’s pure white light, this light of healing begins to move throughout your body. The top of your head feels warm and inviting. Your hair and your scalp feel soft and surrendered. I move my hands over your eyes, And the warmth is so powerful the face feels as if the sun is basking down. Your eyes settle in, the skin around the eyes soften, All tension in the face melts.

PAUSE Breathe in some more, letting any distracting thoughts gently drifting away, leaving you relaxed and peaceful. PAUSE Now, imagine seeing a beautiful sea turtle with a shell of brown, olive green, and black. PAUSE And, as you observe the turtle, you notice its gentle, dark eyes that scan the water. PAUSE You notice the effortless motion of the turtle’s flippers that glide it through the water. PAUSE You notice its rough, wizened face that suggests decades of life and wisdom. PAUSE As you move along with the turtle, you see that it rises to the surface for a few moments. It pokes its head out and then floats, letting the warm sun gently bathe its body. PAUSE After a while, the turtle dives back into the water. But the descent is slow and graceful. There is no rush. Just a peaceful progression to what is next. PAUSE As the turtle reaches the bottom, it nibbles on some sea grass, savoring every bite. Again, there is no rush. PAUSE Now, bring yourself back to the present moment. And, as you do, ask yourself what have you learned from the sea turtle. Can you find areas in your life where you can slow down? PAUSE Breathe. and create an intention to slow down the pace of your life, to give yourself less stress, and to let every moment matter. “I will slow down and savor the moment.” Just like the sea turtle. Practice, and it will be yours. now and always.

They click and chirp, sending coded messages to each other. PAUSE As you move close to each dolphin, their eyes twinkle with intelligence.

Another deep breath in, And release it all on your exhale, melting further into your bed. Let your breathing settle into a natural, easy rhythm as you follow the slow cadence of your body. Breathe in and expand, Breathe out and release, Expand, Release. Breathe in. Breathe out. PAUSE… Become aware of the softness underneath you, The way your body curves into comfort, The way your bed meets the heaviest parts of you with love, Welcoming your legs, Your hips, Your arms, And your head into deeper relaxation. Breathe… PAUSE… Slowly you feel the soft clouds of your bed curling lightly over your limbs, Embracing you with a soothing coolness. You are safe here, You are whole here, At home with yourself, Ready to surrender to where the clouds of sleep will take you. Feel your face relax, Your shoulders drop, Your back melt, Your legs and arms soften. And allow yourself to relax into the clouds of sleep awaiting you. PAUSE… The dark blue sky surrounds you, Covering you in the deep silence of the night, Quieting any of those thoughts that may be moving around in your mind. Release them into the nighttime sky, Watching them disappear amongst the stars. And float slowly on your sleepy cloud, Feeling your body hum with the warmth of sleep. Sleep, Deep sleep. PAUSE… Let yourself fall further into the mist of the clouds, Inviting the softness to take you to dreamland. Floating, Relaxing, Melting. Deep sleep.

PAUSE Keep breathing. And just bask in the openness, the peaceful, serene openness. PAUSE Now, take a moment, and visualize your home. Gently float in and through each room, looking at all the furniture, knickknacks and other objects. PAUSE And, as you see all that is in your house, Ask yourself, “What is really important here?” There are probably some objects that hold joy for you, or sentimental value. That’s okay. No judgment. But, are there things you could detach from? PAUSE Now, imagine your home fills With all the people you know, And you take a moment To silently scan the room. PAUSE There are people you love. People you like. People you work with. People you just know. Are there people who are toxic to you? Ask yourself, “Can I detach from some of these people?” PAUSE Now, breathe, and bring yourself back to your center. And, as you do, give yourself permission to feel how it would be without those unnecessary objects or people in your life. If you detach from them, would you feel more free? Take a minute to reflect on this. PAUSE Now, breathe. And let yourself form an intention: “When I’m ready, I will detach from what or who is unnecessary in my life.” PAUSE Breathe again. And give yourself permission to feel pride because of your courage and willingness to consider detaching. You don’t have to do it today, but now that it’s in your awareness, you’ve taken one step closer to becoming more free.

PAUSE… And sometimes we create a boundary, It doesn’t end up feeling right. PAUSE… But if we tune into ourselves, We can feel into our boundaries. PAUSE… We can feel when saying yes feels good or not. We can feel when a routine is working or not. We can feel when we need more space or time. PAUSE… So let’s spend some time today, Sitting with ourselves, Feeling into our boundaries. So relax, And let yourself find your rhythm.

PAUSE Keep breathing. And, as you do, imagine that you are lifting off your bed and able to fly. Take a moment, and gently fly around your home. PAUSE And, as you feel comfortable with your new magical skill, allow yourself to fly out the window and soar with birds in the clouds. PAUSE Now, after a moment, you realize that you have flown halfway around the world to the beautiful country of Japan. You land gently on a red, half-moon bridge in a garden with a red pagoda rising in the background. As you walk through the garden, you marvel at the beauty and at the feeling of freedom you have from traveling to somewhere new. PAUSE Raise your arms, and feel the air lifting you above the garden and carrying you somewhere else. As you fly, you see rolling farmlands, Indigo oceans, and rose-colored sunsets. And then you arrive at the City of Light–Paris. PAUSE Now, imagine landing At the top of the Eiffel tower In the early morning before dawn. A pink and purple sky blankets Paris. And you can see cars beginning to line streets, and shop owners opening. And, as you watch, you notice feeling free and new, just like the dawn. Hold onto this feeling. PAUSE You outstretch your arms, and are lifted into the air once more. This time, landing at the Grand Canyon in the late afternoon. There is an incredible feeling of freedom and adventure as you gaze into the canyon that is painted red, rose, orange, and yellow by the fading sun.

PAUSE You turn the corner to another street where a small cafe sets tables out on the sidewalk, readying for the morning rush. PAUSE The owner of the cafe sees you and nods.
