So lay down in your bed and let them melt away, as you anchor yourself in the present moment and allow your body to rest. So let yourself slither around in your bed until you find the sleeping position you love the most. Take a deep breath in when you find it, And then exhale and settle even deeper into your bed. Be here. With the stillness of the night. And allow its cool, calm silence to isolate those thoughts racing through your mind. Those worries, Anxieties, Stresses, Fears. They are the ones in rigorous motion against the backdrop of the stillness. PAUSE… Thoughts. Stories. Emotions. That’s all they are. They are not you. What’s true is this moment. This breath. You. Here on your bed. Alive. Breathing. So allow yourself to separate them from you, All these worries. Inviting them to exit the rapid movement inside your head, And enter the stillness of the night. This moment of presence, Where the worries cannot exist. Watch them dissolve in the space around you, The tiny grains of sand spilling from them until nothing is left. Release the worries into the peaceful presence of the night. LONG PAUSE... Feel the deep relaxation of your body as the worries dissolve. It melts into the arms of the night, Releasing its need to control, Or be ready, Or fight. And instead softens, Trusts, And surrenders. Relax and release. PAUSE… It’s time to sleep. So breathe… In and out, And fall into the depths of the night.

How long have you been wishing That someone would notice your pain? PAUSE… We need to eat; it’s a fact of life. We need to nourish ourselves. But nourishment comes in many forms, What you need may not come from the shelves. PAUSE… What exactly do you hunger for? What would fill you up? What have you been missing out on? And how long have you gone without? PAUSE… The first step toward satisfaction Is to name the thing you seek. To see it and feel it and call it out, The Universe will see your technique. PAUSE… Think about why you’re in the back, About why you don’t speak up. What makes you feel less important, Than those you take care of? PAUSE… They need you to be healthy. They need you to be strong. They want to know that you’re okay, That you’re not just playing along. PAUSE… So what will you tell them when they ask, When they see that your shine has faded? How will you tell them to care for you? What yearning begs for urgent attention? PAUSE… How will it feel to get what you need? What will it change deep within? Will guilt rise up to steal your joy, And will you send it packing? LONG PAUSE… Inhale and fortify yourself with thoughts of your power and value. Exhale and liberate yourself from the thoughts that undermine you. PAUSE… Where does this hunger come from? What can it tell you if you listen? Is there something helpful and positive Hiding in its shadows? PAUSE… What’s the secret message, The thread that runs throughout? What can this empty space tell you, About the cost of going without? PAUSE… We all know your heart’s in the right place, That you want what’s best for all. But deprivation just can’t get you there. It just doesn’t have the power. PAUSE… Instead you need indulgence, At least every now and then. You need to see yourself as worth the effort, And make time to see it through. PAUSE… Feel the new energy in your body, The burst that happens when you feed your soul. Sink into the safety of fullness, And let yourself rest there. PAUSE… Imagine how beautiful you look now, Shining with the glow of abundance. Enjoy the warmth coursing through you, Flavored with love and gratitude. PAUSE… So many things feel possible now, So many ideas come forth. It’s hard to know how stunted we are, When we’re just holding on for dear life. PAUSE… But that isn’t you anymore. You’ve asked for what you need. And because those you love truly love you back, What you asked for came to be. LONG PAUSE… Inhale and know you’re part of something bigger than yourself. Exhale with thanks for those who care, those who catch you when you can’t. PAUSE… Think of this as a wakeup call, A reason to make a change. Feeding ourselves is a necessity, Whether food or love or peace. PAUSE… Though change can’t happen overnight, You can do it need by need. Check in with yourself regularly, And pay attention to what you crave. PAUSE… You’re not taking anything from others, When you choose to feed yourself. Instead you’re multiplying what you give, By starting from a place of health. PAUSE… If anyone in your life disputes this, Give that bond some thought. Love is not meant to starve our hearts, But instead to make them swell.

You are beautiful from the inside out. And your body is a gorgeous blessing. No matter how big your thighs, How soft your belly How scarred your skin, How absent a limb, Or sick it may be... Your body is glorious. Just as it is. Maybe you’ve struggled with it. Maybe you’ve cursed it, pushed it, ignored it...even hated it. But it’s yours...and it is breathtaking. PAUSE… So take a deep breath in and feel it work for you, Pulling in the oxygen you need to live, So effortlessly, And exhaling out all the days’ details as it relaxes into your bed. PAUSE… Stay here for a bit, Observing your body as it gives you life through your breath. Feeling the refreshing air as you breathe in, And the calming release as you breathe out. PAUSE... Dear body, I love you. Thank you for being here for me all these years. Thank you for this breath, Its automated rhythm gifting me with life every second of every day. Thank you for this skin, Its beautiful color, texture and gift of touch, And all the scars and wrinkles that tell stories of adversity, love and adventure. Thank you for these legs, That have carried me with strength and love. Thank you for all of my sexual and reproductive parts, That have given me pleasure and the ability to carry life. Thank you for my stomach, And it’s ever changing shape. Thank you for my breasts, No matter their shape or size, Thank you for my heart, Constantly pumping life through my body. Thank you for my shoulders and arms, Allowing me to carry and embrace people and things I love. Thank you for my hands, As I express love and feel my world. Thank you for my face...my eyes, nose, mouth and ears, And all the tiny marks and wrinkles that belong only to me. Thank you for my head, For the brain that enables my body to move, dance, fight, cry, laugh, think and feel. Thank you for my my mouth, And the joy it feels as I savor the food that nourishes me. PAUSE... Thank you for my body, This amazing, miraculous body.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium If you find yourself feeling depleted, And your light rather dim, Take this moment to slow down and pause. PAUSE… Come inside, Deep into yourself, And surrender to the gentle rhythms of your breath. PAUSE… In, And out, Collecting the pain on your inhale, Releasing it all on the exhale. Breathe in, Breathe out. LONG PAUSE… Just like a flower needs water and sunlight to bloom, Your soul needs nourishment and rest to shine. PAUSE… So take a big, deep breath, And as you exhale, feel your body relax. Release all the tension from your body, And allow yourself to sink deeper into this moment of stillness. LONG PAUSE... Beyond the noise and chaos of the world, Deep inside your soul, Lies a space of pure light and love. PAUSE… It belongs to you and only you, It’s created by you, And comes from you. Your radiance. Your essence. PAUSE… Let yourself drift towards this this light, Where all is peaceful and serene. PAUSE... Reach for it, And embrace it, The beauty of your true essence. It shines bright and strong. Breathe in the power of your own light, And feel it expand. LONG PAUSE... Let your light heal what is broken, And all that is gray. Watch it dissolve as your light grows. PAUSE… Let yourself be carried by the gentle breeze of your own intuition. Allow it to guide you towards your highest purpose, And the fulfillment of your dreams. Ride upon the waves of your own inner strength, And know that you are unstoppable. PAUSE... Breathe in deep, And feel the power of your radiance. Let it fill you up and lift you higher, Until you are shining like the sun.

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 Are you tired of the same old thing, The view that never changes? Close your eyes and try to see, What could happen if you rearranged it. PAUSE… It’s so incredibly easy, To walk the same footsteps day to day. To follow the path we’ve followed before, Because things are simpler that way. PAUSE… But is simple what you really want? Does ease set your soul on fire? Or might you wish for something more, If given the chance to aim much higher? PAUSE… Is there an idea tucked down deep in your soul, A picture of what could happen. If you let yourself step way out of your box, And lived what you imagine? PAUSE… Where did that idea come from? Where you young and hopeful and brave? Did it spring to life before you knew How to just give in and behave? LONG PAUSE… Take a breath and see yourself, so innocent and sweet. Release the breath and remind yourself the quest is incomplete. PAUSE… You wanted something way back when, And it seemed so right for you. Why should that desire have to disappear, Because the world demands its due? PAUSE… There must be a way to be who you must, While also living as you please. There must be a way to listen to your heart, While also serving life’s needs. PAUSE… If you’re looking to shift your perspective, To see things in a completely new way, The change can start with a single step, And the change can start today. PAUSE… Think about your usual window, The one you look out the most. What sort of view would you rather have? Should it be mountain, desert, or coast? LONG PAUSE… Inhale as you picture a magical scene, one that makes you glow inside. Exhale and promise to take yourself there, to be your own tour guide. PAUSE… Or maybe the change isn’t a place. Maybe it’s a calling instead. Perhaps you need to find your purpose, A goal to serve both heart and head. PAUSE… When our lives don’t line up with our dreams, When we feel forced to choose, The choice can break us right in half, And leave us feeling abused. PAUSE… Instead we need to find the point, Where all our needs align. We need to find the authentic path, A life of our own design. PAUSE… So dig into your yearnings, Find the wisdom of your spirit. Learn what the universe has been planning for you, Let yourself finally hear it. LONG PAUSE… Breathe in and imagine that very first step, the one that starts the journey. Breathe out as you watch yourself take it, knowing you are worthy.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium On some level, we all understand, That structures crumble without solid footing. But how much do we think about, The strong foundation we need inside? PAUSE… Close your eyes and check in with yourself, Try to see how you’re holding up. Are there cracks in your underpinnings? Do you feel tremors now and then? PAUSE… We don’t all start out on solid ground, Some get more support than others. And then when we’re tasked with building our lives, We forget to ask if we’re ready. PAUSE… We assume we have all that we need, And the world around us expects it. But we never know just how much that is, Until we’ve already started building. PAUSE… By then, it’s easy to decide, That everything will probably be fine. We might travel years down the road, Before worries creep into our minds. LONG PAUSE… Inhale deep, down to your core, and let your essence surround you. Exhale and feel the answers come, rising as you need them. PAUSE… Once uncertainties fill our minds, The cracks are already there. But cracks don’t mean the house will fall. Instead they’re reminders to take a peek below. PAUSE… Just like maintenance for your house, Your soul needs tune-ups too. We need to know of creaks and shifts, Of changes at our center. PAUSE… Sometimes the act of checking in, Is all the process requires. Other times, there’s work to be done, Tasks that cannot be ignored. PAUSE… Some fixes may call for brand new tools, While others are familiar. Your soul will tell you what it needs, If you just ask the question. LONG PAUSE… Inhale and sink deeper into knowing, see just what you need. Exhale as insight finds you, believe in the growth it promises. PAUSE… Fear often comes when we do this work, But know that it’s an illusion. There’s nothing to fear from your deepest self, And it will never leave you forsaken. PAUSE… Evolution must be a collaboration, A continuous project of growth. If you tend the framework regularly, Your spirit will do the hard work. PAUSE… But if you let it fall into disrepair, If you look away when it calls you, You cannot move toward serenity, And your to-be-fixed list simply grows. PAUSE… Instead, why not stay on top of the job? Why not give it consistent attention? That effort will yield an unshakeable foundation, And a beautiful home for your soul. LONG PAUSE… Breathe in and picture the dwelling you’ve built, the perfect space to thrive. Breathe out with certainty as you tell yourself that dwelling will soon be yours.

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 Tonight’s meditation will help you feel good at the end of your day. To be in mindful awareness of your thoughts and your body. To let your breath relax you for a night of deep rest. And to shift your attention onto all the things that make you feel good rather than on those that darken your mood, as you ease into sleep. Let’s begin by settling into a comfortable position, Closing your eyes and taking your first deep breath in. Let your belly expand as far as it can with all that oxygen, And release your breath out through your nose. Take another deep breath in, Filling your belly with just a little bit more air than before, And when you can’t breathe in anymore, Exhale it all out. And one last deep breath in, Imagining the air coming in cleansing your body, cleansing your mind, And letting it all go as you breathe out. Now bring your breathing back to its normal rhythm. And just take a moment to feel into your body. Noticing it rise and fall with the motion of your breath. Noticing if you feel any lightness from increased oxygen. Noticing if you have any kinks or tension you need to release. PAUSE… Bring your awareness to your breath. Notice how good it feels to breathe in and out, How the air can make your body tingle ever so softly with life, How the rise and fall of your chest creates a relaxing rhythm for your body, How each breath in is a renewing moment. And say a silent thank you to your body for doing this work for you as you relax it deeper into your bed. PAUSE… You may notice thoughts coming up. And if they do, imagine that any of those thoughts or emotions that are heavy with stress or worry or fear begin to dissolve with every breath out, Vanishing into the space around you, And releasing their hold on you. Watch them dissolve as you breathe them out. PAUSE... Now notice if there are any thoughts or emotions that come up that make you feel good. Imagine yourself placing them into a beautiful basket beside you. Maybe you see yourself placing thoughts about your healthy body in the basket, Or the work you do, The people who bring joy to your life, Or even the events that took place today that brought a smile to your heart. Place them in that basket and imagine a smile widening across your face as you do. PAUSE… Feel the calm happiness inside of you as you look at your basket. This pile of goodness that warms your heart and reminds you of all the blessings in your life. Breathe them in, And surrender deeper into your bed, deeper into the arms of sleep. PAUSE… This moment is a gift. No matter what happened today, No matter what tomorrow brings. This moment right now, this breath, is a miracle. And you are pure magic, A being of love and light who is flooded with blessings. So relax and surrender to the night, As you swim in the goodness of it all.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Give your body the gift of a nighttime stretch tonight, so you can melt into deep relaxation and ease into sleep. So settle into your bed, positioning yourself as comfortably as you can on your back. Take a moment to cover yourself in your blankets if you like, And then allow yourself to simply lay still for a few moments, As your attention shifts from all the outside noise of the day, To the calm inside your breath. PAUSE… Feel your body relaxing further with every breath, As the warmth of your soft bed pulls you in deeper, Deeper, Deeper. PAUSE… Now slowly bring your attention to your arms, And slowly extend and stretch them in any direction that feels comfortable for you. Stretching them long as you feel your muscles expand, holding it for just a moment. And then release the stretch, Allowing your arms to settle deeper into comfort. PAUSE… Now bring your attention to your neck, And slowly drop your head to one side, feeling the stretch on the side of your neck as you do. Breathe into the stretch, staying with the pull of the muscles, And release. Drop your head to the other side, stretching the other side of your neck, Imagine that muscle stretching and relieving any pain or tension it does, And then release, Bringing your head and your neck back into a deeply relaxed and comfortable position. PAUSE… Now let your attention fall upon your face, As you open your mouth wide, stretching out the muscles in your cheeks, mouth and forehead. Keep expanding the stretch, feeling the muscles release the weight of the day, And then release, Relaxing your forehead, face, cheeks and mouth, As they melt into your pillow. PAUSE… Now for the last stretch, reach your hands up above your head and stretch your legs out as far as you can, Pointing your toes and opening your fingers, Imagining your body being pulled from the top and bottom as your body expands. Feel the stretch align your spine, And release any pieces of stress or tension stored in your body. And release, Feeling the rush of calmness in your body, As you allow yourself to now settle into your favorite sleeping position. PAUSE… Breathe. If there’s any more tension or pain in your body, Breathe it out through your exhale. And then surrender further into the comfort of your bed. Breathe and release. Breathe and relax.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium When’s the last time you sat in silence, Really felt it in your soul? How long has been since you sat with yourself, With no one else around? PAUSE… Take a deep breath and close your eyes, As we seek that quiet once again. It’s time to see what’s changed within, Since the last time you checked in. PAUSE… There’s so much energy around us, From people and their devices and machines. And though we need these things a lot of the time, They’re not necessary as much as we think. PAUSE… Once we let these distractions into our lives, It gets harder and harder to say no. And once we stop making space for the quiet, We forget that we need it at all. PAUSE… It’s so easy to get caught up in the hum of it all, To go with society’s flow. But when we start to crave that hum over other things, It’s a sign we might need to let go. LONG PAUSE… Inhale and pull peace deep into your body, hear only the sound of your breath. Exhale and assess how much calmer you feel, as the peace flows from cell to cell. PAUSE… The answers we seek from those around us, Can be both helpful and not. But the answers we seek from our spirit Are always on the mark. PAUSE… There’s certainly value in connection. No one wants to figure out life all alone. There’s another sort of connection, though, And it’s older and wiser than most. PAUSE… This connection doesn’t need wi-fi. It runs without battery or plug. It only requires your commitment, And a willingness to both listen and hear. PAUSE… And unlike so many other platforms, That tend to steal away pieces of you. Your silent connection to spirit Returns what’s lost as it pays dividends. LONG PAUSE… Take a deeper breath this time, sink deeper into the quiet. Send your distractions away as you exhale, leaving your mind clear and ready. PAUSE… Ideally, we’re looking for balance, A way to thrive inside and out. But until you know how much is too much, It’s too hard to make the call. PAUSE… So take a little away from the world, A peaceful respite now and then. Pay attention as the feelings and thoughts bubble up, And look for the messages they hold. PAUSE… If you struggle to find their meaning, Sit with your questions for a while. Use the clear, quiet space to sort it all out, And lean into what makes it okay. PAUSE… Trust what your inner voice tells you, Now that you’ve given her a chance. She knows what you need before you do, And her signal is constantly strong. LONG PAUSE… Breathe in as you imagine a grounded new you, hopeful, inspired, and at peace. Breathe out with the knowledge that you know what to do, now that you’ve tuned the dial.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Amidst the chaos and the noise, The busyness of the day, You push yourself to keep on going, To keep up the frenzied pace. PAUSE... But when you feel quite drained, Your spirit yearns for retreat, A place to rest and renew, And let your soul just breathe. PAUSE... You find your haven in nature, Where the earth and sky unite. With soft green grass beneath your feet, It all just feels so right. PAUSE... You close your eyes and hear the sounds, Of rustling leaves and birds, Release the tension you’ve been holding, Let go of your worries and hurt. PAUSE... Inhaling deeply, you smell the scents, Of the earth, the flowers, the grass. Your senses are fully awakened, You embrace this moment to last. PAUSE... As you lie down on the ground, The earth supports your weight, You let yourself surrender, Into a calm and peaceful state. PAUSE... With each exhale, release the stress, And let your body ease. Feel your breath become steady, And surrender to the breeze. LONG PAUSE... In this space of stillness, You find a strength so deep. Renewed, refreshed, and ready, It almost makes you weep. PAUSE... In these moments of rest, You hear your voice inside. You’re reminded of your purpose, And know that it will guide. PAUSE... Slow down to speed up, Rest and renew right now. I promise you’ll find joy, If you just stop and allow. PAUSE... Slowing, slowing, slowing down, Each breath fills you more. Calming, calming, calming down, Tranquility’s in your core.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium If you close your eyes, can you see it? The thing that matters most? The thing that makes your life worthwhile, And encompasses all of your hopes? PAUSE… It’s different for each one of us, Whether a concrete or intangible thing. It’s the essence of what we hold sacred, The reason our hearts can sing. PAUSE… For some of us, it’s our children, Those precious, angelic gifts. For others, it’s our parents, The souls who allowed us to exist. PAUSE… Others live to love their pets, The animals who brighten their lives. And many more live for their art, Their creations helping humanity to survive. PAUSE… So what is the thing that lights you up, That makes your existence worthwhile? What eases your load and keeps you striving, No matter how challenging the trial? LONG PAUSE… Take a breath and picture it, the gem in your heart’s crown. Release the breath with gratitude, giving thanks for what you’ve found. PAUSE… Think about the peace this gift gives you, The joy and satisfaction. Think about what it adds to your days, The way it guides the laws of attraction. PAUSE… We would likely do anything, To hold on to this gift. To keep it safe and well and strong, To protect and watch over it. PAUSE… What does it do to your body, When you give it your full focus? Does it warm your heart, or stir your mind, Or just give you something to trust? PAUSE… The things that make us joyful, Also give us strength. They remind us what to hold onto, And what to keep at length. LONG PAUSE… Inhale and pull the power of love inside. Exhale and vow to share the best you can provide. PAUSE… Whatever you choose to give the world, And whatever it gives you in return, The impact grows in both directions, Because of the love lessons you learn. PAUSE… So your vision is important, The treasures you see have meaning. And the sights you end up holding most dear, Are proof the universe is intervening. PAUSE… It points us to our greatest good, To what we’re meant to give. It rewards us when we zero in, And find purpose as we live. PAUSE… Acknowledge your blessings, dear one. Feel them with you at every step. Build your world around what you love, And know there’s always more you can accept. LONG PAUSE… Breathe in and pull your priorities close, the gifts that shape your life. Release that breath on a wave of love, and prepare for more gifts to arrive.

Think about what it takes to rise, Beyond the world we see. PAUSE… Let a bird be your inspiration, No matter the color or size. It’s their freedom we hope to replicate, Their wildness, the ultimate prize. PAUSE… Imagine if you were gifted wings, The choice to take to the skies. To flap your way across the beautiful blue, As higher and higher you rise. PAUSE… Would you go far, travel the world? Or stay close and rediscover your home? What sights call out to your curiosity? What journey inspires you to roam? PAUSE… Would you fly over all, just taking it in, Or would you dip lower to see? Is the flying itself the greatest joy, Or are there things you must view to believe? LONG PAUSE… Take a breath and imagine your voyage, the freedom to go where you choose. Release the breath with a smiling heart, full of the gift of adventure. PAUSE… What would it be like to simply take flight Whenever your heart felt the pull? You could go anywhere, see anyone, Take off when your daily life felt dull. PAUSE… Perhaps you might even spot a new home, As you’re darting around in the sky. A place that would comfort and soothe and inspire, While keeping you warm and safe and dry. PAUSE… You just never know what exists in the beyond, What lies waiting for you to fly over. The gift of wings could change everything, Pull all of your dreams even closer. PAUSE… And then there’s the unfamiliar feeling, Which must be simply wondrous. The drafting, the floating, the dipping, the soaring, Zooming and flowing between winds so blusterous. LONG PAUSE… Inhale as you picture yourself as free as the wind. Exhale the breath joyfully, let your spirit tumble and spin. PAUSE… And perhaps, while you’re up there, You’ll encounter some friends. You’ll fly in formation, Stay in sync as you ascend. PAUSE… Relying completely on the compass within, You’ll head where you’re intended to be. And when you arrive, you won’t be alone, For friendship is a guarantee. PAUSE… When the time comes to go back, Your group will gather around you. You’ll fly home altogether, Each one made stronger by the miles you flew. PAUSE… So now that you’ve envisioned All the pleasure flight brings, The next time you’re wishing, You might ask for wings. LONG PAUSE… Breathe in and imagine your gorgeous bird self. Breathe out and take with you sweet freedom itself.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Let it all float away, mama. All those worries, concerns or stresses you may be feeling about whether or not you’re being a good mom. All those judgements that may be coming at you - whether they’re from others or yourself...let them all go. Even those quiet whispers that wonder how your kids will turn out as adults...let them go. And instead, sit in this truth. You’re doing a great job, mama. And you are a phenomenal mother. And your little ones are so blessed to have you. No matter how many mistakes you make. No matter how unique your style of parenting. No matter how many times you’ve broken down. You are doing a great job. So the intention of today’s meditation is to give you the space to swim in the greatness of your mothering. So you can embrace the beauty of its imperfection and honor yourself for showing up every day. Close your eyes and settle into a position that’s comfortable for you. Slow your breathing down, Inhaling just a little more, And exhaling just a little longer. Feel the air come into the lungs and fill your belly. Relax your cheeks, Let your lower jaw release and let your tongue drop from the roof of your mouth. Lower your shoulders, Soften your stomach, Relax your legs. Feel your body melting into your position. And breathe. PAUSE… This time is for you mama. To honor you. To remind you that you are doing a great job. And that your kids are blessed to have you. Breathe deeply, Exhale completely. PAUSE… I want you to imagine yourself sitting in your favorite spot in your home. You feel so comfortable here. You are safe and cozy. Take a deep breath in, filling your belly with air, And as you exhale, relax yourself further into your favorite spot. PAUSE… Now imagine that your child walks into the room. They’re 20 years older than they are now, An adult in the world. And they’re here in front of you, coming home to visit you, mama. Notice what you see on your face as you look at your child. Joy. Pride. Gratitude. Intense love lighting you up. Your heart is full and you hear your inner voice whisper, you did a great job, mama. Notice your chest expand with air as you drink in the sight in front of you. Your child is here, Healthy. And authentically themselves. PAUSE… Notice that in this space of appreciation for the child you have raised, As you watch your beautiful kid in front of you, There are no judgements. No guilt. No worries about your parenting or even about your child. They do not exist here. All that exists is this incredible human in front of you. And a deep knowing in your gut that you have done a great job. And you continue to do a great job. PAUSE… Now take a deep breath in, inhaling oxygen deep into your body, Feeling it nourish and cleanse you, And breathe out completely, letting yourself sink deeper into relaxation. PAUSE… You will never be a perfect mom. There is no such thing. But you are the perfect mom for your child. And no matter how many missteps you may make, No matter how much you second-guess yourself. You are a phenomenal mother. And you’re doing a great job. Let your inner voice continue to guide you through the terrain of mothering. And trust that you are doing your best. And that your parenting journey is yours to co-create with your child. Every single day.

At the base of your spine, Imagine a tiny hole. PAUSE… This sand slowly releases, Down and out, And away from your body. PAUSE… You are feeling lighter, And lighter. PAUSE… Your breath is soft. PAUSE… You begin to notice, The last few pieces of sand, As they drift away, Down and out, And away from your body. This tiny hole closes, And at the top of your head, A beautiful waterfall of light.

LONG PAUSE Continue breathing and holding a place of peace– A place of serenity and relaxation. LONG PAUSE Now, let your mind unwind. Let any tense or distracting thoughts Simply evaporate. Feel the peace as they disappear. LONG PAUSE Continue breathing, and now imagine stepping outside on a cool, spring day. The air is a mixture of warming sunshine and the last gasp of winter’s chill. PAUSE As you stroll, you notice tiny pockets of snow still dotting the ground, white tufts with green and brown life pushing through. PAUSE Green stems and buds rise from the ground like sentires awakening from a fairy-tale slumber. They rise and reach toward the warming sun. PAUSE As you walk, a nippy breeze catches in the trees, trembling them for a moment, and then returning them to strength and calm. PAUSE The branches of the trees are peppered with bud, some like green leaves: Others like tiny white flowers. When another breeze shakes the trees, the buds hold on eager for their chance to bloom. They won’t give in. PAUSE As you walk along, a flock of birds flies above. Some land in a tree near you, and begin chirping happily, buoyantly, as they make their way back from the warmer climes of the South. PAUSE You pause near the tree, listening to the chorus of joy, and noticing the beautiful red breasts of the birds, dancing between the branches. The robins are back. PAUSE A little farther down the path, water burbles, and you see the first flow of an icy stream as the water melts. PAUSE In the stream, translucent shards of ice still cling precariously to rocks and branches. They soon give way to the stream’s destiny. And the water flows. PAUSE A silver fish with a rainbow on its back, pops its head out of the water, then sinks back into the stream, darting in, out and around bits of ice. PAUSE The sun rises higher in the sky, beaming its warmth to you, and moderating the chilly breeze. You find a rock by the stream, and perch yourself upon it. PAUSE A pair of deer stop by the stream, dipping their noses in the water, and lapping it up with their tongues. They pause when they see you; then scamper away. PAUSE While sitting on the rock, an enormous sense of peace fills you. With spring’s kiss, Nature awakens around you. You feel calm. You feel connected. You feel part of Nature at your core. PAUSE As your time at the rock comes to end, you stand and leave, feeling the ultimate peace, the ultimate connection to life. And you carry that back with you to embrace and share..

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Our former selves are ghosts to us, Still present but not really. Though it may seem like they’re past their use, In truth, their memory is a blessing. PAUSE… Close your eyes and see who’s there, Which versions of you still linger. Ask yourself where you all stand, If there’s anything you still wonder. PAUSE… Though we want to believe we shed those selves, When new understanding settles in, We actually move farther if we’re willing to embrace The messy past hiding within us. PAUSE… It’s not that we have to wallow there, Or relive what we’d rather not. But whatever they are, we are as well, And their scars have stories to tell. PAUSE… If we don’t listen when they speak, Our present life just gets harder. For they know better than anyone else, What it takes to make us smarter. LONG PAUSE… Picture a younger version of you, hold yourself close as you breathe in gently. Prepare to listen as you speak to you, breathing out to make space in your body. PAUSE… What did she need that she didn’t find? What lessons did she teach you? Have you found what ‘that’ you lacked, Or are you still searching for answers? PAUSE… It may be daunting to look back this way, To see how much work remains. But taking stock reveals successes too, Showing you where you shine. PAUSE… Think of these selves like rings of tree, Their number growing as you age. And like those rings, they’re safely surrounded, By the growth you’ve toiled to achieve. PAUSE… They still exist like shadow selves, Appearing when circumstances demand it. But like the rings in the tree, or ghosts in the attic, They’re only glimmers of what used to be. LONG PAUSE… Inhale and accept the process, the ever changing shifts. Exhale and accept the necessity of keeping watch as you advance. PAUSE… At some point, you will all be friends, You’ll coexist gratefully. For they are pleased that you battle on, With the tools they crafted for you. PAUSE… The past is never quite what we think. Our memories let us down. But a sister-you never forgets a thing, And she’s there to cheer you on. PAUSE… So look more fondly on your past. Don’t fear what you have been. We all spend time in foolish places, Until we figure out where we belong. PAUSE… Even if you haven’t found that place, The one that’s meant for you. Your early selves hold all the clues, And they believe in what you can do. LONG PAUSE… Breathe in as you take your ghosts by the hand, accepting what they offer. Breathe out and settle into their company, feeling more whole when you’re together.

And let your body, unfold in peace with each breath. LONG PAUSE Now turn inward, and take a moment to express gratitude for all that is in your life. LONG PAUSE And while relaxing, let your heart and mind focus on you. This time is all about you. LONG PAUSE Imagine now, a tiny light opening in your center. The light is flowing with colors: White, yellow, orange, and red. PAUSE And, this light seems to form in an area of your body that feels delicate, an area where you’ve carried pain or hurt. PAUSE Yet, as the light shines, it absorbs the hurt, taking away the sting of the feeling. PAUSE The light glows, and after a moment, you understand that the light is really a tiny flame, a flame of energy. PAUSE The flame dances from side-to-side, and slowly begins to grow, giving off a feeling of strength, of power rising from the inside. PAUSE As it touches hurt, pain or grief, it swallows the feelings, leaving ashes that simply float away. It replaces them with strength. PAUSE Soon the energy flame has danced and grown all through your core, radiating pure strength. PAUSE As it grows, there may be a part of you that is hesitant– a part of you questions just how strong you are. PAUSE The flame invites you to embrace all of you. It whispers within that you have incredible strength– strength beyond your imagination. PAUSE And as the flame shines, it gives off more power. You notice that its edges begin to change, to fan out in different directions. PAUSE The flame transforms slowly until you notice what appears to be wings opening on each side and the shape of a head. PAUSE After a moment, the shape evolves into a bird, a Phoenix, the bird of fire and power. PAUSE Now, imagine that this beautiful bird of fire, this bird of strength and energy enfolds all of you in its wings. PAUSE Then, slowly, you and the phoenix rise, lifting above the house into the night sky. PAUSE The air is cool, and you feel completely comfortable with this powerful energy carrying you higher. PAUSE Against the night sky, the fiery phoenix shines like a beacon of hope for you, glowing brighter than the moon and stars. PAUSE Then the phoenix pauses, and opens its wings. And as it does, you realize your arms are the fiery wings. You and the phoenix are one. PAUSE Suspended against backdrop of the night sky, you feel the blaze of energy, the strength and passion of the phoenix as it courses through you, empowering you. PAUSE And with this bold, new energy, You, the phoenix, glide back to your room, to a welcome bed. PAUSE As you land, the wings of fire fold inward, ready for you to call on them again, at any time. PAUSE You understand that you are a phoenix, with great strength and power, and you can rise from the ashes again and again. Nothing keeps you down.

All this worry and anxiety and fear, Exists in the past and in the future. So breathe in deeply, And allow your breath to pull you here, Into the present, Far away from all of it.

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.

PAUSE… Breathe… And see if you can settle into the rhythm of your breathing. PAUSE… Riding the waves of air as it flows in, And out of you. Naturally, And slowly. In, And out. Slowing you down, And calming you. Mindfulness means we are conscious of our thoughts, Our emotions and the world around us, So we can be here in the present moment, And live our lives with intention. PAUSE… So let us practice mindfulness, By staying with our breath, And simply noticing when thoughts arise. Noticing when emotions bubble up. And allowing these noticings to pull us back into the present moment. LONG PAUSE… Find your breath. Feel the cool air on your nose as you breath in, And the warm air on your nose as you breathe out. PAUSE… Feel the rise and fall of your stomach with each cycle. PAUSE… Let each exhale relax your body a bit further, Imagining yourself melting into comfort. PAUSE… Breathe… And allow yourself to be here for a bit, Mindful of the thoughts, Mindful of the feelings, Mindful to bring yourself back into the now. LONG PAUSE (4 MINS)… Now bring yourself back to center, Anchoring in this moment now. PAUSE… Notice how your body feels. Notice how your spirit feels. PAUSE… Now bring your hand to your heart, As you take a big, deep breath in, Feeling your chest expand under your touch. Then exhale, Releasing all the air, And all the leftover dust, As you settle deeper into yourself. Feeling cleansed, Light, And here.

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.

LONG PAUSE… The motion inside your head is fast, As scenes of your day come alive. And all the emotions that have been dormant, Are suddenly here to thrive. PAUSE… Your body hears the noise, And feels the vibrations in your veins. So you toss and turn in your bed, And frustratingly submit to the pain. PAUSE… But you don’t have to suffer, You can surrender to peaceful sleep. Just let go of the thoughts, And let yourself melt into the deep. The easiest way to start, Is to focus on your breath. Letting yourself follow it, Noticing its cadence, its depth. PAUSE… Then feel a warm glow, Gently soothe your head, Relaxing your eyes, Melting you into your bed. PAUSE… Let it move down your body, Your shoulders releasing with ease, Your chest, Your belly, Your hips, It warms you to your knees. LONG PAUSE… Soon the warm glow hums, Upon your beating heart. Here she begins to speak, There’s wisdom she wants to impart. PAUSE… Relax, she says, This day is done, There’s nothing for you to do. Let all those thoughts drift away, So sleep can replenish you. LONG PAUSE… You breathe in deep, And snuggle in, You’re free to dream at last. Nothing needs to be figured out, Those thoughts can easily pass.

LONG PAUSE Turn your focus inward, Noticing your breath, And letting each healing breath, Touch any pain or tension lingering in you. LONG PAUSE Continue breathing in relaxation, And, if any stray thought crosses your mind, just visualize it floating away for now. LONG PAUSE Now, imagine, if you can, sitting by crystal blue river on a cool spring day. PAUSE The sun is glowing brightly. The sky is sapphire blue. And the trees are coming alive with tiny, colorful buds. PAUSE The air is a mixture of the sun’s warmth and the cool crispness in the breeze. It feels lovely lapping against your cheeks. PAUSE Pause in this beauty, and take it in through your senses. PAUSE And now, imagine, if you can, an area of bubbles popping in the center of the river. The bubbles fascinate you, as they grow bigger and bigger. PAUSE After a moment, the bubbles seem to come together, as if forming a shape. PAUSE And, as you watch, a beautiful woman, rises from the bubbles, into the air before you. PAUSE She is robed in white buffalo, with onyx hair gently cascading around her. An silvery ethereal glow shimmers around her. PAUSE The maiden draws closer to you. She nods. Instinctively, you nod, too. “I am the Spirit of the Water,” she says. PAUSE Then, the maiden Invites you to the water’s edge. You follow and kneel on the bank, and at her encouraging, gently make a whirlpool with your hand. “The water is alive,” she says to you. “Feel the life of the water.” PAUSE A tiny pulse charges through your hand, As you continue making whirlpools. Feelings of life and renewal surge through you. The water is alive. PAUSE Then, the woman drifts back to the center of the river. She looks to the sky and raises her hands. A soft drum beats in the background. PAUSE After a moment, A flock of birds arrives and drinks the waters of the river. They squawk and chirp, filled with life and energy. PAUSE Then a moose trots to the edge of the river, The tip of his nose nuzzling the life-giving water while his tongue partakes. PAUSE Moments later, The maiden raises her arms again. Within seconds, hundreds of colorful wildflowers bloom around the bank. Pink, yellow, blue, white flowers dot the landscape and send a pleasing, sweet aroma into the air. PAUSE A gurgling noise catches your attention. Gazing into the waters, you see dozens of fish gnawing on river grass and burbling. One jumps and wriggles in the air. PAUSE Then, the maiden draws close to you. She reaches into the river, cupping her hands, and offering you a drink. You accept and drink in the water. PAUSE As you drink, The life of the water, pulses through you, bestowing energy and power upon you. PAUSE The maiden nods to you, and returns to the center of the river, where a swell of bubbles brings her home to her water. PAUSE And, while you may not see her anymore, you feel her spirit, The water’s spirit, bubbling in you. And you feel the beautiful wildflowers opening with life. And the birds singing with joy. And the animals rejuvenating, All from the life of the water. The water is alive in you.

Your brain spins in mud, Trying to do more, Needing one final report. PAUSE… So breathe in real deep, And slow yourself down, I promise the pressure will ease. But first you must let, All of it go, Your need to control every piece. Let your jaw release, Let your eyes get heavy, Let your entire face just melt. Lower your shoulders, And open your chest, Let go of all you’ve felt. PAUSE… Breathe and relax, Calm down real slow. Breathe and release, And let yourself go. LONG PAUSE… Imagine your mind, So full and so fast, It all feels so heavy and raw. Imagine your breath, Grabbing what’s there, And carrying it out till it’s gone. PAUSE… Over and over again, You gather them up, All of those thoughts and those plans. And each time you breathe, They all get released, Dissolving into tiny little grams. PAUSE… Breathe and relax, Calm down real slow. Breathe and release, And let yourself go. LONG PAUSE… Each moment you sink, Further into calm, It’s time to decompress.

LONG PAUSE… Feel the waves of relaxation soften you, From your head, Down to your shoulders, Your chest, Trickling down your back, Your legs, And through your feet. PAUSE… Breathe and relax, Breathe and release. See if you can feel them, The spaces of softness inside. The tender surfaces that move and mold, As your fingers graze upon them. LONG PAUSE… Some are bruises, Here because of the blunt force of trauma or pain. PAUSE… Allow yourself to touch them with a healing hand for a little bit, Feeling the warmth cover them, Relieve them, And comfort them. LONG PAUSE… Some of your spaces of softness, Are not hiding or wounded, But simply parts of you that take backstage to the harder, More forceful qualities that are often required to navigate the world. PAUSE… Kindness and tenderness, Forgiveness and vulnerability. Love and compassion. PAUSE… The part of you that rescues the bug from a shallow pool of water. The part who sheds tears watching a movie. The part of who hugs your child close when they’re hurting. The part who craves your lover’s beautiful embrace. PAUSE… Breathe into these spaces now, Remembering, Feeling, And giving life to them all. LONG PAUSE… If your mind starts to wander, Come back to the rhythm of your breathing, And lean deeper into your softness. LONG PAUSE… If emotions begin to rise, Allow yourself to feel them all, Riding their waves, Feeling the water, And knowing the swells will calm.

PAUSE… Imagine a healthy, perfect leaf, Floating on the breeze. Any type, any shape, any size will do, Its beauty yours to define. PAUSE… Perhaps it’s a lovely maple leaf, Its shape reminiscent of a star. Or a gorgeous oak leaf, wide and graceful, With curves like river bends. PAUSE… Perhaps your leaf is young and tender, Green and vibrant, silky to the touch. Or maybe you’re seeing a vivid fall leaf, A flash of dazzling color. PAUSE… Think about where your leaf has been, The sights it may have seen. Imagine the view of life from the air, The feel of gliding on the wind. PAUSE… Your leaf may be one of many, Part of a soaring team. Or it may be drifting on its own, Happy to follow the breeze’s whim. PAUSE… Your leaf is like no other, Even though it resembles the rest. If you look closely at its edges and arcs, You see its special quirks. Use your breath to sink deeper into peace, to feel as free as that leaf. Imagine yourself with no restrictions or worries, the breeze your only guide. LONG PAUSE… Now that you have a leaf in mind, Let your thoughts turn to its tree. Even when floating on the wind, It’s tied to where it began. PAUSE… Whether that tree is near or far, The connection always remains. The leaf is part of a family, A history rising up from a common seed. PAUSE… From small beginnings, a vast tree grows, Adding branches throughout the years. The leaf is proof of the tree’s dedication, Its determination to survive. PAUSE… No matter which branch it stems from, The leaf is part of the whole. It may not be sure where it's heading, But it always knows where it belongs. PAUSE… Think about how you’re like that leaf, Singular and yet one of many. A beautiful, strong free spirit, Carrying the potential of countless others. PAUSE… Or perhaps you’re still attached to your tree, Fluttering softly on your branch. Providing shade and oxygen, To take care of all those below. PAUSE… It’s easy to feel like leaves are too small, To do much on their own, But when energies align for the greater good, Each piece of the whole has meaning. PAUSE… So whether you’re off making your own way, Or you’re sticking closer to the tree, You’ll always be part of where you started, Always tied to your true home. As you inhale, try to feel your connections, the ties that make you who you are. As you exhale, think of what your spirit adds, how your strength supports those bonds. LONG PAUSE… Let those thoughts add to your peace, Let them fill you with confidence and grace. Just like the tree you come from, Your life has purpose and power. PAUSE… Long before you came into being, Nature’s plan was set. You are a part of that intention, And when the time is right, you’ll act. PAUSE… For now, accept that you matter, That your existence was by design. Let the weight of that knowledge make your heart smile, Let it make your spirits rise. PAUSE… Each of us has a destiny, A path we’re meant to follow. But like the leaf set upon the wind, Only our beginnings are pre-determined. PAUSE… We’re given an origin story, A history to which we’re tethered. Then, either by choice or chance, We’re free to plot our own course.

LONG PAUSE And once you’re in that perfect position, become aware of your body in bed. Notice where your hands are, and what parts of your back, sink into the sheets. LONG PAUSE Feel your head, in the plush embrace of your pillow, and how deeply comfortable, it feels now. LONG PAUSE Take a minute, and just enjoy these feelings, these feelings of complete comfort, and total relaxation. PAUSE Now, imagine a road and a small car, and the road is narrow and winding, as it snakes its way, into some beautiful rocky hills. PAUSE And as your driving, you notice the steering wheel, iIs not where it normally is: It’s on the other side. PAUSE And with that realization, another comes: You’re in the beautiful Scottish highlands. PAUSE You roll down the window, and breathe in, cool, refreshing air, noticing a blue sky, with puffs of cloud, sprinkled between the hills. PAUSE As the car drives on, you pass some sheep grazing, and you decide to stop. PAUSE The sheep welcome you, as you come, gently petting them, running your fingers softly, through their fleecy coats. PAUSE After a moment, you hear a collective, “Bah,” and somehow you understand: They are grateful for your visit. PAUSE Back in the car, you drive until you see a small village sprouting up from the ground. PAUSE As you draw closer to the village, a stone church catches your eye. The church’s gray steeple cuts through the air, towering over the village, reverent, like in prayer. PAUSE You stop for just a moment to see the inside of the church, and are struck by the hundreds of candles flickering under statues and paintings of saints. PAUSE The air is tinged with incense, and you realize the church was in service just before your arrival. PAUSE You find a quiet spot on a pew, and say a prayer for peace, breathing in the calm and beauty of the little church. Then you return to the car to explore some more. PAUSE As you approach the outskirts of the village, a small tavern on a rocky hill catches your eye, and you stop to warm up. PAUSE Once you arrive, the distinctive sound of bagpipes playing hums in your ear– with notes thick like honey. PAUSE Inside the little pub, men and women sip pints in hand-crafted pewter mugs and laugh. Their cheeks are rosy from the cold air. PAUSE You order a drink and find a seat at a long wooden table where older men talk and talk, completely unaware of the bagpipes playing. PAUSE A woman with flowing red hair approaches you with a steaming bowl of soup teeming with fish, onions and potatoes. PAUSE The soup is warm and cozy, and you can feel it’s soothing heat moving from your mouth to your stomach, and it feels wonderful. PAUSE As you enjoy the last drop of the warm elixir, you thank the woman who kindly served you, and bid her farewell. There is one more place to see. PAUSE You drive away from the pub into the countryside until a magnificent medieval castle springs from the landscape. PAUSE You stop and go in. The castle is cool, like a cave, and you pull your sweater around you. PAUSE Throughout the castle are armors from ancestral knights, antique paintings, and chairs of wood or iron. PAUSE You find a room with fireplace and sit next to the burning flame. The warmth is welcome.

These thoughts, they’re loud, And want you to play, But the true path to peace, Is to let go of the day. PAUSE… So as these thoughts pop up, Imagine you’re breathing them out, Keeping your attention instead, On the breathing in, And breathing out. PAUSE… Say goodbye to your day, And everything that went on. And let the gratitude wash over you, That you’re here and the day is done. PAUSE… Breathe in the love, From your family and your friends. The river of blessings, That never truly ends. PAUSE… So let go of the day, And melt into bed, And let the nighttime take you, Your soul is deeply fed. PAUSE… The world is blessed to have you, So many gifts you bring, There’s no one like you here, You’re worthy of everything. PAUSE… Sweet Dreams, my love, You’ve made it through the day, May you wake up shining your light, On all who come your way.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium It’s time to power down now, To ease yourself out of the grind. Close your eyes and take a breath, And clear all thoughts from your mind. PAUSE… You’ve been working so very hard, For hours and likely days. You go and go and go some more, Toiling in so many different ways. PAUSE… It’s easy to fall into a pattern, With no room for checking in. You see to the needs of so many others, And then forget to look within. PAUSE… Your heart is in the right place, Your intentions are the best. You don’t mean to neglect yourself, As you do so much work without rest. PAUSE… But the time has come to make a change, To turn your attention inward. Use this time, this twilight time, To recoup what’s been deferred. PAUSE… Start by being still and quiet, Let your body slow its pace. From mind to heart to muscles and cells, Give yourself some space. PAUSE… Listen to sound of your breathing, Tune into the gentle beat of your heart. Hear your body’s music, As you let the background noise depart. PAUSE… When you feel in touch with your rhythm, When you feel calm and serene, Let your mind drift where it wants, See what secrets are begging to be seen. PAUSE… Look at the things you’ve held out of sight, As you’ve rushed to keep up with the world. Look for what needs your attention, For the thoughts that have gone unheard. Take a breath and savor it, enjoy the chance to breathe. Exhale that breath and feel release, the kind your body craves. LONG PAUSE… Think about what’s been missing for you, In recent days and weeks. Think about what fell to the bottom of the list, As the squeaky wheel got its grease. PAUSE… It’s only human nature, To respond to what calls your name. But when those calls never seem to cease, It’s your spirit that feels the pain. PAUSE… There’s a special kind of exhaustion, That results from over-serving. Once it starts, it’s tough to stop, And even harder to feel deserving. PAUSE… Though it may seem scary to make a change, It doesn’t have to be drastic. Instead of throwing things out of your life, You can try a softer tactic. PAUSE… Use this time at the end of each day, To bring your thoughts back to you. Choose a yearning that went unseen, And make a promise to see it through. PAUSE… Tune in to what your soul is whispering. Listen to what it’s prompting you to do. Imagine how it would feel to take a leap, To explore something exciting and new. PAUSE… Even more than the novelty, What matters is the choice. To hear what your spirit needs from you, Is the first step toward finding your voice. PAUSE… It takes quite a bit of practice, To make yourself a priority. But each tiny step has massive power, Each one gives more authority. PAUSE… Though life would have us ignore these clues, To do so takes a toll. Once you learn to consult yourself, You’re on the path to being whole. Breathe in and imagine being whole, the fulfilled being you’re meant to be. Breathe out and know it’s possible, that you need only hear your own plea. LONG PAUSE… It’s all about getting started, About taking the time for yourself. To learn what you need and embrace it, Even when the world demands something else. PAUSE… If you’re truly honest with yourself, Much of what you need comes as no surprise. Whether a longtime yearning or a recent must, You’ve likely been ignoring the signs. PAUSE… Time just feels so limited, Growing shorter each day and year. It’s a difficult job to prioritize tasks, And your desire to do it all is sincere.

So drop your shoulders, And relax your cheeks. And release all the tension you feel. Let your arms fall heavy, And your legs sink into the bed, And ease your back into comfort. PAUSE… Breathe… And settle deeper into your sheets. Finding moments of stillness as your breath slows you down. PAUSE… See if you can stay here, In these moments of stillness. These pauses between your breaths. And let the silence in these moments, Allow you to hear the rain falling gently on the roof. LONG PAUSE… Let each drop soften you, Relax you, And melt you further into the night.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium This is me, a soul so wise, That deeply touches the divine. This is me, a weak little punk, Who’s scared of my own shine. PAUSE… This is me, a bleeding heart, Who feels the pain of the world. This is me, a screaming mess, Who’s come completely unfurled. PAUSE… This is me, so full of hope, A dreamer who dances and plays. This is me, frozen with fear, Anxiety a thick looming haze. PAUSE… This is me, so full of love, I hold my people with care. This is me, drowning in tasks, I need to come up for some air. PAUSE… All of it swirls, all of it spins, And blends like waves in the sea. The older I get, the more that I love, The perfectly imperfect me. I’ve spent too much time, Wondering if I could, Change some things about me. If only I did this, Or looked that that, The world would see me differently. PAUSE… But time has taught me, That each time I try, To be anything other than me, My soul slowly corrodes, My light slowly dims, And I can no longer see. LONG PAUSE… I’ve been told I’m too much, My dreams are too big, My scars should make me ashamed. Turn down the volume, And stay in your box, So we know you’ve been tamed. PAUSE… But each scar I have, Paints a tapestry, Of my life lived loud and free. I won’t let you tell me, They’re ugly or wrong, I’m proud ‘cause this is me. LONG PAUSE… It rises within, My deep sense of self, And spills out onto the floor. I’ll live my own life, The way I see fit, You don’t have a say anymore. PAUSE… I know there are shadows, Where pain and shame live, The caverns hide so many things. I’ll continue to explore, The landscape within, Knowing the healing it brings. PAUSE… This is me, my body, my mind, Aligned and in love with my soul. This is me, so take it or leave it. I am free, I am whole.

LONG PAUSE Now, let your mind surrender. Let go of all distracting thoughts. Let them float away like clouds. LONG PAUSE Stay with the peace and relaxation in your body. Just allow yourself to melt into your bed. LONG PAUSE Now, imagine, if you can, walking in the cool, crispness of the night. The air is clear, and your path is lit by a full moon and thousands of glistening stars. PAUSE And, as you walk, there is something comforting about the night, something peaceful and protective, like a child’s favorite blanket. And you embrace those feelings. PAUSE In the sky, the moon in its other-worldly glow is a steady light, silvery blue, with the shadow of a cloud passing by, every now and then. PAUSE The stars wrap around the velvety night sky, like twinkling lights around a tree. Each tiny twinkle brings a greater sense of peace. PAUSE The night is loud in its silence. In a comforting, protective way, A way that lets you know you are safe in the silence. PAUSE As you walk, you notice the quiet shadows cast by the moon. Shadows of trees. Shadows of bushes. Shadows of you. You acknowledge the shadows with gratitude. PAUSE You inhale the breath of the night– feeling the coolness tickle your lungs, and smiling at the scent of earth and foliage that ascend into your awareness. PAUSE There are no boundaries between you and the night. All parts of you are part of the night. PAUSE A tiny breeze breaks the silence, A breeze filled with whispers and secrets of the night. PAUSE The breeze teases you with… What has happened. What is happening. What will happen. All this knowledge is woven into the fabric of the night. All this knowledge is woven into your being. PAUSE After a moment, some rustling in the bushes breaks the silence. Out darts a fox foraging for food. PAUSE The fox pauses, looking at you, with the moonlight reflecting in his dark eyes. Then he scurries along, Knowing he is safe. Knowing that you are part of the night. PAUSE As you walk, water ripples softly in the distance. You walk toward it; Stopping at a tiny brook bubbling her truth for anyone or thing that will listen. PAUSE You wait by the brook, fascinated by the shimmering of light in the water. The moon and stars dance for you in the water. PAUSE You continue walking, with the cloak of night gently draped around you. With the peace of night securely in you. And with the mysteries of night moving you to know more. You and the night are one, Moving together in grace. Moving together in silence. Moving together in peace. Now. And always.

Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Become mindful of your breath, slowing it, focusing on each inhalation, and exhalation, and listening for the beat of your heart. LONG PAUSE And as you hear your heart, shift your focus to connect with your body, and notice your mind and body are synching together and relaxing. LONG PAUSE Now, take a moment, and feel the calm of the night gently moving through you. Stay with this feeling. LONG PAUSE Now, draw in a breath, and envision yourself catching sight of a moonbeam that finds its way in room dancing past the curtains. PAUSE It looks like a silvery slide, and as the curtains move, ever so slightly, so does the moonbeam, pulsing rhythmically like it was dancing the Charleston. PAUSE And as the moonbeam dances, you can feel the shimmering pulse of its beat, a pulse that connects you with this orb of intuition, the moon. PAUSE After a moment, a vision of the moon appears before you, A sliver of light captivating you. PAUSE And as the slender curve of light rests before you, there’s a feeling of power that it brings. PAUSE It doesn’t matter that it’s just a moon in its early phase: It awakens intuition and awareness within you, powers that want to grow. PAUSE And then, imagine that the suspended moon expands, so that half the orb is bathed in sterling light. PAUSE And as the moon grows to the first quarter phase, so do your desires to create. PAUSE Drawing in a breath, you see yourself writing, painting, sculpting, drawing, anything that taps your creative, intuitive spirit, or potentiates growth, comes alive in you. PAUSE And as your creations, of thought and physical form blossom, so does your confidence. There’s a growing sense within that you stand tall and feel empowered to take on the world. PAUSE The moonlight shimmies, and before you unfolds a stunning full moon, resplendent in its pearlescent glow. PAUSE As the moon dances, and illuminates the room, it casts the light of awareness in and around you. PAUSE You become aware that the seeds of your creations are far-reaching and can impact others. PAUSE The full moon also lets you see what else you might want to do, the things you want to change, and how to make what you want in the world better. PAUSE After shining brightly for a while, the moon wriggles and some of its light dims. half of its light is gone, as it is now a third-quarter moon. PAUSE And despite the change in light, you feel inspired to take stock of your work, and implement some of the changes that the full moon has brought into awareness. Think about those changes. PAUSE Inspiration glows inside you and continues to move you, helping you become more aware and grow even more. You feel inspired and in charge of your life. PAUSE The moonlight pauses again, this time dimming back to the sliver of light it began with. This cycle is ending. PAUSE And with this phase, you feel a sense of accomplishment, a sense that your work, your creations, were worth it. PAUSE You embrace this feeling and reflect on it, as it brings stillness and peace into your heart. PAUSE And though the moon dims further until it bears no light, you feel its light shimmering, pulsing within you, and you know that the cycle will ignite again soon.
