And I'm just going to ask everybody to mute themselves just to pat down on the background noise. And welcome everybody to our magic Monday morning meditation. It is lovely to have you all here. I'm so glad you all made it. And I am excited to dive into a loving kindness meditation today, because it is the first meditation of the month. And we would like to start off March, and each month for that matter, on the right foot, loving ourselves and tapping into the into that connection with your higher self as well as the spirit, the universe, God, whatever works for you, whatever is your source of connection to the bigger picture, as I like to say. So you can go ahead and start by closing your eyes, if you haven't done so already. And take a moment to arrive. Especially when we're getting so wrapped up in having things scheduled for our days, and we're in doing mode, then we tend to just check meditation, check meeting, all that. So come back from that by coming into present time. And the easiest way to do that is to close your eyes and take a nice deep breath in and focus for a moment on your breath. Noticing how it comes in through your nose, how it oxygenates all the parts in your body, how your nervous system starts to slow down. And when you breathe out, how you can relieve everything that is in your space, not just your breath out. But energetically speaking, being able to let go of tension, stress, anxiety, pain. And also the notion, you have to do something. Or you have to do it in a very specific way. Or such as being on autopilot and not being really present. But just doing it because it says it on your calendar. Because you have set this up as a thing that occurs all the time. Coming into present time allows you to tap into your entire energy, entire energy system. Not just 50% or 40% or 80%. Coming into present time allows you to tap into it 100%. And as you're coming more into present time, you might become more aware of the sounds around you. You may notice the changes of light, even if you have your eyes closed. It is not about to not pay attention ever to these things, but rather to allow them to be as you are in present time. But at the same time, not following those thoughts that may arise around that. And even if you do, you can come back and just noticing, Oh, okay. I followed that story. Seeing the light play through my eyes, even though they're closed, led me to a story that happened at some point earlier and off you go. And then you may notice just, okay, I followed that story. I followed my thoughts. And you can just come back. Another great thing that really helps to stay focused and in present time is grounding our bodies. And we can give our body a visual. Our bodies to really love visuals. It's a very playful, effortless kind of energy that our bodies really easily tap into. So creating this very detailed image of a grounding for your body and attaching it to the very end of your spine. And including everything, your whole body, all the layers of your aura, your chakra system, and grounding that down all the way into the center of the earth and hook it in with this beautiful big anchor. I guess if you're trying to ground a cruise ship and allowing that connection to support your body and your nervous system in releasing any tension, any pain, physically or emotionally, to just drop out of your body will make a huge difference in how you can be more present. And don't worry if you don't see much or if you don't notice much. We don't always have to know what's going on. This can be just colors, just a feeling. And allowing yourself to become more aware of being here and in present time. And as you're arriving more and more in present time, I'm so excited to tap into the energy of loving kindness today again, as it is the first meditation of the month of March 2024. And there cannot be enough loving kindness meditations that we do for the peace and connectedness of our world, but also for us for ourselves. Because we can't create peace or only to a certain degree for everybody else. If we don't include ourselves in that connection. So with that being said, I am inviting you to imagine someone who is really close to you. This can be one of your children, this can be one of your very close friends, it could be a spouse, a parent. Imagine this one very significant and close to you person or your close furry baby. And just see them with all the detail that make them who they are. Let them walk all over that movie screen while you sit in the audience. So you can see all of their personality, everything that you have come to love so much about them. And create that connection from your heart to your higher self as well as to great spirit. And from that space, extend all the loving kindness you have within you. Not only within you, but that you're able to tap into from the bigger picture. May you be well. May you have love. May you have peace in your life. May you be well. May you have love. May you have peace in your life. Now go ahead and take that feeling of loving kindness and extend that circle of people on your screen to your family, to your close circle of friends, to a few more people who are really important to you. And just let them all appear on your movie screen with all the details, their favorite things to wear. May you be well. May you have love. May you have peace in your life. May you be well. May you have love. May you have peace in your life. And just notice what happens to your space as well as to their space. You might see different colors, more brighter, just different colors. You may notice how they're relaxing within themselves, how you're able to relax more within you. At the same time, maybe you're noticing that it touches upon sadness or grief or anything that is not just joyful and happy. Let it be. When we tap into the energy of love, it doesn't only always bring that feeling of peace or joy or happiness forward. It touches upon all the things. Love is able to break down barriers, bring hidden stuff forward. It allows us to heal. It's almost like it gives us wings to deal with whatever comes our way. And just as we spoke about in the last week's meditation of RAIN, allowing what is. So whatever comes your way, when you extend loving kindness to your close person, to your closest circle of friends and family, just allow whatever comes up. You can let go of judgment that only the good stuff is allowed. Who says what is good and what is bad? Now I would like for you to let someone on your screen appear that you have difficulty with. Someone who challenges you. Someone who triggers you when you are around them. This might be as simple as one of your colleagues. This might be someone in your family. It might be one of your friends. It might be an acquaintance, a customer, or just someone who you run into when you're driving down the road. If you keep running into them more than once. Or even if it's just someone who you had difficulty with, that you walked into when you were at a store. And they stirred something within you that was kicking loose a lot of resistance to what happened. So just become aware. And you can let the situation appear, the person within that. And again, being in present time. Becoming aware of not being wrapped up in the story around that. Sometimes we get all drawn into what happened and we talk to ourselves and how we could have done this differently or the things we all still needed to say to them. So just sit back in your movie theater chair, take your popcorn, and just let that situation appear for that person. And from that space of stepping back a little bit. Allow the energy of loving kindness to seep through that situation to fill it up with a different kind of energy. May you be well. May you have love. May you have peace in your life. May you be well. May you have love. May you have peace in your life. May you have peace in your life. And notice how the energy changes around that. Notice how you're able to take your power and your strength back to you so you have it available to create. Notice how you're able to diffuse the energy within yourself around that situation. And as you're able to bring that energy more back to you, you're able to extend more grace towards yourself. You may be able to release judgment around how you reacted to that person, how you reacted to that situation. And that will lead you forward into extending loving kindness to yourself. So sit back in your movie chair and let a beautiful picture of yourself appear on that screen. And you may see yourself being connected to your higher self and to great spirit. You may see yourself even being grounded in the colors around yourself and within yourself. And how judgment and tightness around you just melts away as you're extending these words to yourself. May you be well. May you have love. May you have peace in your life. May you be well. May you have love. May you have peace in your life. May you have peace in your life. And focus on breathing for a moment as you're letting this energy seep through your entire system, smoothing out the edges, melting away pain, melting away all the stress, all the worries, melting away all the resistance to our current situation and who we are and stepping into grace and love for ourselves. And with that being said, I hope you take this energy of loving kindness and grace and peace with you for this week. Extend it to everybody around you as well as to yourself. And with that being said, you can slowly but surely come out of meditation and open your eyes when you're ready, moving your shoulders around, making your body just come back into present time. And with that being said, I hope you have a wonderful week. Bye, Liz. You're welcome. Enjoy your week. Thank you. Bye. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to our magic Monday morning meditation. Today, I thought it would be very fitting if we would go into a, what I would call present time meditation, just to be able to arrive in present time and be grounded within ourselves for this coming week. We may all have a very busy week. Some of us may always have a busy week. But for some of us, it may be a little bit more busy. We may all have a very busy week. Some of us may always have a busy week. But for some of us, it may be a little bit more than usual. So wherever this finds you, I would hope that we would be able to ground our week, come back into our bodies, even say hello to our nervous system, and just take a breath and go from here. So with that being said, I would invite you to go ahead and close your eyes and just sigh for a moment and maybe even sit back. Maybe it was a very busy weekend or we had a lot going on. A lot of things that we are trying to take care of these days. So just sit back for a moment and allow yourself to just be. And one of the easier ways of doing that is really giving our body oxygen. So taking a really nice deep breath in through your nose and at the top of the breath, we can notice if we have this little pause before we're breathing out. And just doing that for a few times. And what I would invite everyone would be to see what feels right for you in terms of your body. And what I would invite everyone would be to see what feels right for you in terms of taking your breath. You may want to take your breath in through your nose and out through your nose. You might want to take it in through your nose and out through your mouth. Or you may notice that you're just breathing in through your mouth and breathing out through your mouth. And for a moment to just observe that and be okay, whatever it is. There is no right or wrong way of doing that. And sometimes we're not able to do the perfect breath. The perfect in-breath and out-breath. But just noticing where we're at and being okay with that. Acceptance is the word that comes to mind. And as we breathe in through our nose and out through our mouth, we're just noticing where we're at and being okay with it for now. And as you're focusing on your breath, at the same time you can start to create a beautiful grounding for yourself. And maybe when you start putting a grounding in place for your body, it may become easier to breathe in more deeply. Because on every out-breath, you can release anything that is tight or tender or overwhelming in your body. And that grounding can really be a beautiful visual of the Niagara Falls. If you need to release a little bit more than usual, or if you just want this powerful grounding, you can release a little bit more than usual. If you need to release a little bit more than usual, or if you just want this powerful grounding that connects your body with the earth. You can tuck this right at the end of your spine and all the way down into the middle of the earth. You can use a tree trunk, a rainbow. Really allow your spirit to be creative and have some fun with it. And allowing yourself to just be playful. I sometimes like the image of Niagara Falls quite a lot, because water is constantly in flow, it's constantly changing, adapting. It's to the contrary of myself sometimes. It doesn't get stuck behind the rock. It just keeps on finding a different way. And so when I sometimes get stuck in fear, or I get stuck in overwhelm, anxiety, stress, what have you, I choose a waterfall as my grounding. Just to make sure I'll have a good visual for my body to just go around things. Don't have to get stuck in it. Just moving. And once the energy is moving again, it's easier to become mindful, it's easier to just let go. It's easier to become mindful, it's easier to step back and become the observer of anything and everything that's going on in our own space. And just taking a moment actually to be in your space, focusing on your breath. With every breath in, becoming aware of where you're at. And with every breath out, letting it go. There's attachment to where you're at, or where you think you should be. You can just breathe it out with your breath out. Use gravity as you're letting things go out through your grounding. And noticing how your body becomes more relaxed. You may become aware of tight spots in your body where you hold on to tension. Maybe you become aware of the places within you that hold the stresses that you're holding on to. Maybe you become aware of the places within you that hold the stress. Maybe it is in places that you would not ever have thought you're holding stress. When the feelings of overwhelm and anxiety become so big, we think that the spot in our body must be so big where it fits. But sometimes that may not be true. It can be very pinpointed to one tiny area and that might be totally hurtful. It can be very pinpointed to one tiny area and that might be totally hurtful. One tiny spot or you may not feel a whole lot from it at all. So just be curious as you're going along. And just like Niagara Falls has many small waterfalls within itself, you can think of all the tension points in your body having its own small waterfall that together make a big one. They're all going to meet in the big, grounding Niagara Waterfall. And as you're being playful with that, you can imagine the colors that come out of your body. You may notice other visuals. You may see situations pop into your head. You may notice that your mind starts to wander off into some narratives or other stories that belong to those tension spots within you. And just observe. It's okay to notice that your mind is starting to wander. It is completely normal that it wanders. So just become aware of it and then come back. You can come back to your grounding. You can come back to your breath. Focus on a part in your body. Sometimes it's helpful if we go too far that even with our eyes closed we may put our hands on our upper legs. We can just move our hands a little bit just to be able to become more present to stay more in present time. You may become aware of uncomfortable feelings within you that pop up as soon as your space becomes more quiet. And again just being in a space just being in a spot of observing rather than following it along. Just the same as not wanting to make it go away. It's okay that it comes up. It's okay that stories around that come up. But just observing what is happening. And even if we are sitting in quiet allowing that feeling of struggle potentially if it's quiet if it's silent maybe we can follow along a little bit more our thoughts our breath maybe we dive right into some of our stories and get sidetracked and the mind is like oh we have to do something we have to figure something out quietness might sometimes be uncomfortable Just notice there is nothing to be done other than noticing staying grounded and just observing what is happening staying grounded and breathing Those are all the things that keep us in present time Now I would invite you to check in with your heart space You may say good morning you may say hello you may say I haven't seen you or spoken to you in a while you may say oh good to see you again whatever it is that comes up first when you are checking in with your very own heart space you may notice that it is big and wide open you may notice that it is shielded or a little held back and the power of now and being in present time is to just observe what it is right now so letting go of all the shoulds or have to my heart space should be open it should be better it should be more beautiful it should be this or that so just letting go of that and allowing it to be what it is it might be heavy it might be bursting with joy or maybe somewhere in between or even hold anything and everything all together at the same time as human beings in our human experience we are able to have it all at the same time to our mind this may not make sense we are capable of holding it all together at the same time because time really is an illusion not when we are in our human experience really but on a spiritual energetic level hence we can hold it all at the same time you may want to attach a smaller waterfall to your heart space and let anything come out of that space that does not belong to you anything that is restrictive anything that is restrictive that puts your heart space in a tiny little box all the shoots and demands on yourself anything that you notice that does not align with your higher self that does not align with the great spirit with your purpose that does not align with your purpose you can just let that go with every out breath you can just let it go you don't need to necessarily even know what it is but if it doesn't align you can let it go and you may notice that when you do all these things grounding and checking in with your heart space and becoming more mindful of your body and your nervous system you may notice when you release all these things that you are creating so much more space in yourself and for your own energy to come back in you may notice that you are able to let go of everybody else's thoughts of what your space need to look like of what you should be doing where you should be at you are allowing yourself the grace of being loving and kind to yourself and in order to fill all these spaces where you have let go I would invite you to create this beautiful golden bubble right above your head and imagine there is this wonderful ginormous magnet in it and it has the ability to call your own energy back from wherever you left it you may have left it with spouses children friends family pets situations you may even find some of your own energy in vacations places you have visited maybe even a challenging conversation you had with someone you may notice that there is a lot of your own energy is still stuck in that I should have said that I should have done that maybe you notice your energy being in your car if you sometimes may have a demanding commute with a lot of traffic with a lot of other people and it may not even be just in the car but rather on the subway on the train maybe in an airplane and just notice without having to do anything just notice how your energy is coming back into that golden bubble and it magically transforms into your very own highest vibration of your own energy and you may notice that this golden bubble is becoming bigger and bigger it may become more vibrant you may notice a sensation of excitement excitement excitement throughout your space ready to receive your own energy again you may notice your spirit gets all excited of having that level of energy back into the space into your own space to be able to create with it 100% so to speak and just your own so as you notice that you can go ahead and start to bring that golden bubble into your space let it wash all over you like the best golden shower of your own vibration of your own energy and let it fill in all the places that can use a healing you can imagine yourself standing in a golden shower in rain or under the waterfall and I would invite you for this coming week to do that as many times as you feel it's necessary it can be just a couple minutes here and there where you allow yourself the space to bring in your own energy again to really allow your body to have a grounding so you can release anything and everything that is not truly 100% your own and with that being said I'm gonna invite you to slowly but surely come back out of meditation you can move your shoulders tap your upper legs move your head from side to side and when you're ready you can open your eyes and come back out alright I hope you have a thank you for being with me and I hope you have a wonderful week bye www.mooji.org
