Love
Bubble Meditation:
Transcript:
Start
lying down, arms relaxed by your sides or you can rest them gently on your belly. Notice the sounds around
you (not a few) and then locate a place of silence in all the noise, so your mind can
rest. Next, turn your focus to your body, and allow yourself to let go of any
tension (here lead them through a foot-to-head “heaviness” exercise. At the
belly, stop for a moment and feel the in and out breath and at the forehead, mention
that they should feel their brows are cool as a warm forehead can cause
headaches); the final focus goes to the breath, first as something to hear and
then as something to feel.
“Love Bubble”
meditation: Suggest to them to “feel joyful” to “feel peace” to “feel
love”. First think of yourselves and send some love your way. Say to yourself
on an in-breath, “I am thoughtful and understanding.” On the in-breath feel yourself draw the energy
from the earth and as you exhale, feel these positive compliments wash over and
cover your whole body. Inhale “I am thoughtful and understanding, drawing the
energy in, and on the exhale, allowing yourself to submerge in these
affirmations. A few times on your own, noticing the cool breath entering and
the breath out through your nose, is warmed. Now direct your thoughts to
someone you want to send some love to, this person could be alive or passed on,
a parent, a grandparent, a sibling, a friend…anyone. While thinking of this
person, feel “peace, joyfulness, and friendship”. Breathe in pulling the energy
of peace, joy and trust into you and on the out breath spreading these thoughts
like a soft wind encompassing your body. Allow these thoughts, like a big pink bubble, to float up to the sky above and then drift into the air, heading
towards “your loved one”. As the bubble floats away, once again, notice your breath
in and your breath out, cool to warm, with each out breath your body sinks
deeper into the supportive mat below.
Send loving-kindness to yourself and allow it to radiate out from
inside.
Be healthy, happy, and peaceful.
