Deep Cool Waters Of Healing The Sovereign Nature of the Body Reclaims itself Meditation

“Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.”   Rainer Maria Rilke

Meet frightened, anxious, angry etc parts of yourself tenderly with kindness and care.  

All inner critics and emotional patterns have a positive intention.  How are they permitted to let themselves go into a new fresh edge and shift into their newness. Every part within us has its own healing mechanism, all we need to do is offer relationship on the basis of ‘letting be the way it wants to be’ rather than reject or attack so they can morph into their fresh edge and wellness.

Limitless Mindfulness Meditation.  Something can be constricted, cramped, raw, tender, vulnerable – in and of themselves they are fine, the question is how do we relate to them?  Are we held hostage or are we in relationship with them so they can express themselves fully for being fully received.  We are not trying to force change or fix something, it’s a bit like pouring water onto a seed, its an organically flourishing process which just takes care of itself within the context of Presence. Perhaps you have a place where resting is easy, sunbathing on a beach, a forest perhaps or somewhere else where an exquisite sense of safety makes itself known to you.  Inviting a sense of care and warmth in the body.

Inner Critic Relationship for Self Tenderness Kindness and Care for Raw Vulnerable Meditation

The seed into the flower of warmth and kindness Mindfulness Meditation.  What we bring to the table of mindfulness, is all welcome, although some parts in us may not want them to be welcome! We welcome those parts too! Settling, like throwing confetti to the wind, letting it blow where it wants to.  Sensing the soft fabric of your clothing, wrapped around you tenderly, offering safety and security.  Inviting a soft, warm, awareness with each in and out breath.  Inviting a comforting and soothing awareness, whole body sensing letting it rest in itself with all its sensations, a mosaic of sensations.  
Whole-body breathing, sensing the flow breathing in a kind and warm awareness, breathing in and out, grounded aware whole-body breathing. Inviting a resting of the whole body, like a cloud floating in a blue sky …. resting.  Sensing out beyond the treetops, out into that great restful blue, up into the stars, keeping us company in dark and in light.  Here we are in the web of the universe, as if being breathed by the universe itself.  Perhaps imagining being breathed by a particular colour or fragrance flooding into every sell of the body, inviting a relaxing, healing and comforting.
When we are up against it short Self Compassion meditation.  It is compassionate to let things be the way they want to be in us, because there is a positive intention behind every story and feeling, indeed an unmet need.  Let the feet be reassured by the ground, the universe is here to support and care for us.

When We Are Up Against It Short Self Compassion Meditation

Inviting a deeper support and resilience, we all have deeper resources and creativities, and knowing’s that can support and nourish us. We all live in a web of magical interconnectedness with nature and all beings that we can be available to, that can run through us and invite deep healing and flow.

Self Compassion Mindfulness for Healing and Wellbeing.

The open and connected dimension of Being.
Something can sense the intimacy of connecting right now. Like the tree is available to all the birds that land on it—available to the sky above, and the clouds that float by, to the rain, to the wind that dances the leaves. That tree is firmly rooted and grounded, just like us in Presence.

The felt sense then runs through the whole of this—it’s life connecting everything up, as it is. And the nexus of the felt sense could be in the heart, tummy, or chest somewhere, or more amorphous. Just sensing what is alive here—how is it living through the sensing?

And maybe, making room for the timelessness in Presence, the infiniteness in Presence, and the life that runs through it!

The felt sensing does not belong to anyone in particular—it just seems to course through us. But that shared sense of the felt sensing—if we just pause right now, and just be quietly available in a very ordinary way, to each other—it’s as if there is a shared felt sensing going on. It does not belong to you or me exclusively. Something in us knows there is a bit more going on here, and it seems to be shared.

So I am inviting your body to sense how it is for it—its living experience in the sharedness. This felt sensing, this field, this matrix, this mutuality, this dance, this correspondence, this unity—it can rest in itself. As it does so, something can just be with it, and notice the quality of it from its own perspective.

We are just playing with the mystery of intimacy, of connection.

Often we are not receptive to this shared quality. And here, we invite permission for availability to come forward—to open the gates, to open the portals to this sharing, into the mutuality of sharing that creates its own portal. Resting with this, to sense how it is.

If you like, something in you can open to the portal to all of those around you, to all the sentience beyond—into a felt sensing of all that. Subtle, yes, it can invite itself to know itself more fully from availability in Presence, letting it rest in itself.

And as it does, you might notice the qualities of it—at least a sense of something here. What are the qualities of this sharedness? Perhaps more owned by itself—a sense of sharedness. What’s this like, this shared element? What’s it like in itself, even?

My sense of all this, from a felt sense perspective, is that this—the shared intimate felt sense—brings true wellbeing and healing, and is a portal into the mystery itself that knows its own truth, whatever that means!

And you could say that there is a lot of rest and peace in this sharedness, this mutuality, this mystery. There’s a lot of rest—something can rest deeply here—a lot of nourishment. And if I dare push the boat out, it’s almost timeless, infinite, limitless in its own way.

Of course, there will be parts that may shrink or contract. However, this shrinking and contraction can take place in the breadth of it all.

Timelessness and Infiniteness In Presence Focusing Attunement

Inviting a place of rest and ease, it’s time out, you time, also inviting inner nourishment, wellbeing, a sense of space, a place to breathe, to process. Mindfulness is also a place of gentle and deep resolution in how we respond, creatively and with healing and the fresh edge of forward movement.

Kindness Warm Radiation Meditation for Wellbeing and Deep Rest

Pausing into a quality of landing and Presence. Pause is like a portal, a portal into the fullness of who we are, whoever that may be, that mystery.  There’s a lot of what we don’t know we don’t know in this mystery.  So, we invite curiosity, kindness and compassion to keep us company as we arrive more fully.  Also inviting a warm awareness with each in and out breathe, a soft and gentle awareness. So, pausing. You might notice the thinking mind may continue, the last thing it wants to do is pause….. we just allow it to be here, as the body begins to feel the earth beneath its feet, finding rest in this sensation of touch.  Arriving, the shape of the whole body can begin to emerge from this grounded whole sense of itself.  Inviting a warm kindly awareness to flood the whole body, being kindly held with care.  Being held by the whole ocean of Being, cool clear waters, sapphire blues, lapis lazuli blues, emerald greens, malachite greens, permeating the whole body with care. Being held by a thousand flowers with their petals gently holding us with their fragrance, being held by the blue sky. Being held by the night sky, with a thousand diamonds glittering. Breathing it all in, being held and supported. And sensing space beyond the four walls. Sensing up above the treetops, into that infinite sky.  Resting in the whole-body breathing, just naturally breathing according to the body’s needs. Resting and comforting and soothing every cell tissue and organ, whole body invited into the comforting and soothing place with each in and out breath, just resting in the flow, no effort required, it just rests in itself.   Grounded, whole body, spacious, kindly aware, breathing.  And perhaps taking a little time to notice your mood, feeling tone and emotional tomes in the body, offering space and care as appropriate, indeed even saying hello, if you are moved to do so to those parts wanting care, tenderness, renewal, healing, regeneration, its ok that these parts are there. They are met or unmet needs for care, for love, for space, balance, connection, freedom, play and fun, joy, health and wellbeing, restoration, community and friendship, progress and engagement, contribution, understating, empathy, communication, learning and growth, the Mystery, continuing to rest in the whole-body breathing in this connected whole way.  Inviting care and kindness to flood through the body like a blazing sun in the heart, its warmth and light radiating through the whole body, gradually and gently glowing warming, enlightening, bringing ease and space, warmth, allowing this glow to radiate out around you, radiating further out, touching the hearts and minds of all beings, all sentience, sitting in this glow, inviting, connection, closeness with all beings, sensing our relatedness and mutuality as a wholeness, indivisible, the light itself, resting in the mystery of this light.  Just letting things be the way they want to be pervaded by a spacious quality of light, always available at all times.

Blazing Sun in the Heart Kindness and Healing Mindfulness Meditation

Drifting and falling into this ocean of resting. Something in you knows this quality, this utter relief of falling and being perfumed every cell into this restful and deep such a safe space, such a safe secure place of holding. Something primal knows all about this. Like a clear pool lake, its as if a water fall cascades, dripping into that pool of a beautiful clear colour water, of a beautiful clear colour, maybe emerald, green, sapphire blues clear crystal waters, being invited to be permeated and suffused by this crystal-clear purifying cleansing water. Something in us knows all about this, we invite this something to offer itself perhaps through our breathing sensing the flowing in the filling up the permeating into these deep waters, such clear calm pacifying expanse of securing safely expanding into this place with each in and out breath with each sense of contact whether through the ground or mattress or sheets or blankets or just the air on the skin or some clothing wrapped around keeping you warm and safe inviting this dep perfume of resting as it continues to drop down into itself, these feeling these tingling feelings opening and softening every ell of the body with the lightness of breathing in this spaciousness.  Something knows and can perfume the whole body in this way, muscles softening and resting in the vast expanse of these crystal waters, massaging the skin with its gentleness and softness every pore on the body being kissed and touched by this resting safely crystal waters offering a brightness and lightness as it perfumes the body, permeates every cell organ and tissue with each in an out breath softening expanding safe secure holding resting and maybe something drifting or falling softening sleeping is inviting itself to become more present in the coolness of this great expanse the stars gazing down in this open infinite dimension of starry light crystal waters, and maybe in the night resurfacing just to notice the breathing again, on the inbreath taking us into this expanse, this deep place of trust of safety of being held, maybe some symbol or colour or metaphor of being held, loved, cherished, warmed, embraced by the universe of safety, resting, nourishing into a deeper relief and maybe drifting g into the sleep, maybe just drifting into this safe resting place being carried into the ocean of peace and tranquillity, resting here.
