Breathe... PAUSE... Let your eyes get heavier, Unclench your jaw and relax your cheeks.  Lower your shoulders, Relax your arms and your hands. Soften your stomach, And feel your legs and your feet get heavier and melt into deeper relaxation.  Feel your body here...warm.   Relaxed.   Soft.   PAUSE… Imagine yourself as a little girl.   Look at her hair, her body, her eyes.  Notice her position, her attitude, her expressions. Take it all in...this vision of yourself as a child. What sounds do you hear her make?  What scent is around her?  What is her demeanor? PAUSE… Now see if you can imagine a giant bubble on one side of her.   A dark, scary, smokey bubble.   As you look closer at it, you recognize what’s inside...sadness, pain, hurt and fear.   So many dark memories inside of this bubble.   Maybe you’re seeing within it flashes of those dark memories, mini movies from your childhood.   Or maybe you’re simply seeing the emotions floating within it and feeling their heaviness.   The disappointment, rejection, or fear.  Relax your body and just observe this bubble. PAUSE... This incredible little girl created stories about each one of those memories or emotions.   Maybe she created a story called I’m not good enough.   Or I’m not worthy.  Or I don’t matter.  Or even I can’t trust others. Or I can’t have everything I want. She’s not wrong for doing this...it’s what all of us do.   But there are stories she created that are not allowing you to live as vibrant as you would like.   PAUSE… So take a deep, cleansing breath in, And as you exhale, release the heaviness of these stories, PAUSE... And then reach out to this little girl, And embrace her in your arms, holding her close with love...pure love.  And watch as that dark, smokey bubble diminishes, little by little. Hug her. Love her.   Hold her. Accept her. And watch the stories evaporate away.   LONG PAUSE… Now, take a step back and observe her again.  This beautiful little girl.  Now imagine a big, bright bubble on the other side of her.   This bubble is filled with laughter, creativity, dreams and love. Perhaps you’re seeing flashes of those happy memories, mini movies from your childhood.   Or maybe you’re simply seeing the emotions floating within it and feeling their lightness.   The joy, lightheartedness, and imagination.  Just sit back and witness it all.  And feel a warm happiness fill your body. This is all yours.   And the doorway to inviting in more of it in your current life - more joy, more love, more creativity - is through this special little girl.   Turn your attention from this bright bubble onto the little girl. See how she lights up? See how her smile comes from her soul? Remember how much she loved to play? And move? And imagine?   She is here with you.  💗💗💗 Check out all the deals from our incredible sponsors here! --> https://womensmeditationnetwork.com/sponsors   💗💗💗 Check out all of our other podcasts at https://womensmeditationnetwork.com Learn more about your ad choices.
