In this meditation, we look at how a simple expectation can effect the body. What we are really trying to do is create a sense of awareness. To release you first need to understand what you are releasing. 

This meditation is an exercise in balancing the fear we hold in our bodies. I guide you to stand on a stone buried in the earth and relate the stone to the way you feel regarding your emotions. Do you bury things? To you hide your feelings? Do you allow fear or doubt to rule your actions? This mediation walks you through pulling the grounding energy of mother earth into your body to open and expand those energy centers and take back your personal power. 

This meditation is a journey to what is called the "lower world". It is not a dark place but an earthly place to meed guides, spirit guides and helpers, and our loved ones who have passed. Today's meditation/journey is about healing and releasing the heavy emotional baggage we carry with us. 

The freedom of flight. The meditation shows us where we are limited and what the barriers in our life look like. We then embody a bird and take flight, getting a sense of freedom. 

When we need a boost, when we need reassurance, when we have to take a step towards something that scares us, how do we move through fear? How do we move past all of the thoughts in our mind telling us to "run", "stop", "do what you know", etc.? You feel in your body first and let the thoughts in your mind move to the side. Take that leap. There is commentary at the end of this meditation to help break down the symbolism. 

Our perception is our truth or rather what we believe to be true. This mediation takes us to a place or a moment where perhaps we base a particular "truth" about ourselves, a moment or others. What does this place/moment mean to you? What does the meditation show you as it relates to how you live your life based on this perceived truth?

How do we manifest? How do we move forward with strength? This meditation is meant to bring awareness around the gifts you already hold within and release what no longer serves. It's a grounding exercise and a chakra balancer with a twist. Balance and regain your power. You have all the tools you need to be amazing. 

Today was a journey to the Lower World, a place for guidance from our spiritual teachers. Most often, these teachers take the form of an animal but today we seek guidance from a great tree before we move into our sacred space to get healing and guidance from one of our guides.

Standing on a cloud looking over the earth, it's not hard to see beauty. We start this meditation looking at the earth from this higher perspective and find a place we want to land. Our cloud slowly descends and we are standing on the earth. The place we have chosen or the place has chosen us hold significance. Exactly what may yet be determined. As we walk along the earth, we are drawn to the sound of water and go explore. This water is a symbol or subconscious look at our emotional state. What does the water look like? Does it flow like a river? Is it a small pond or lake? This meditation will walk you through looking at that water, exploring your thoughts and feelings, and making changes. 

This meditation takes us back to a moment in our childhood where we need to reflect and feel. We begin this meditation as children feeling our perhaps timid nature or maybe our very free loving nature. After exploring a place from childhood, we return to our adult self (present self) and re-explore the same place from childhood. The meditation should bring you to a place of reflection. How did this time in your life impact you? What did you need to learn? How do you feel as an adult in the same place? What can you give back to yourself to heal and move forward? I have saved the commentary from my own experience on the back end of the meditation.
