You can corral them with reason. You can keep them at bay, With the movement of the day. PAUSE… But when the night comes,  When you’ve slowed yourself down, The seeds of fear, Grow in your mind, And in your body. PAUSE… Fear arises within your belly, Slowly at first. Little bubbles of discomfort. But as it takes over your mind, Boulders of fear lay upon your chest, Freezing you, And weighing you down.  LONG PAUSE… Bring your hand to your chest, sweet one, And touch the fear that’s here. PAUSE… Let the warmth from your hand, Move through the rock, And pass through it easily, Knowing what’s beneath.  PAUSE… Your hand can feel the vibrations, Of what’s underneath the fear.  PAUSE… The determination arises, As your chest expands to breathe.   PAUSE… You can feel the stability, Of your reliable heartbeat.  PAUSE… You can feel the promise, Of each new breath.   PAUSE… Fear can be here, It doesn’t have to take over. It doesn’t have to blind. It doesn’t have to stay. PAUSE… You are stronger than your fears. LONG PAUSE… Breathe deeply now,  Inviting the fresh air to come inside,  And clear what’s here. And as you breathe out,  Feel your body soften and relax. Another deep breath in, Even bigger than before, Gathering up the heaviness, The thoughts, And then releasing it,  Melting yourself even further.  PAUSE… Slow your breathing into a gentle rhythm, Coming in deep into your body. PAUSE… Letting the waves of air calm you, Relax you. LONG PAUSE… It may be tempting to look away, And avoid the boulders of fear. PAUSE… It may be tempting to succumb to them,  Handing them to your mind, And unleashing their demons,  PAUSE… But if you slow down, And take an honest look at what’s here, If you can ask fear what it wants.  The heaviness begins to dissolve, And the boulders begin to crumble.  LONG PAUSE… Listen for the voice, That tells you it’s fine. That everything will be okay. Listen for your voice, That brings you back home,  And reminds you of who you are.  PAUSE… You are stronger than your fears.  Sweet Dreams, Beautiful. 💗💗💗 Check out all the deals from our incredible sponsors here! --> https://womensmeditationnetwork.com/sponsors 💗💗💗 Check out all of our other podcasts at https://womensmeditationnetwork.com Learn more about your ad choices.
