Let go of any negative thoughts or complaints, as you allow your breath to settle you into this serene space.

Take a few more deep breaths, allowing yourself to fully relax into your body.

The roof over your head, 

And the food on your table.

I am grateful for all the blessings in my life.

I am grateful for all the blessings in my life.

Like a tornado, 

Life seems to spin,

Your energy splashes,

Creating chaos within. 

PAUSE

Disoriented from the wind,

You’re pulled in every way.

You fight to find footing,

But lose yourself in the fray.

PAUSE

Life bursts and shakes, 

Then spirals and breaks.

You’re pulled in and out,

Feeling chaos throughout. 

PAUSE

So slow it all down,

And come deep inside,

Find your gentle breath,

The grounding it provides.

LONG PAUSE

Breathe in real slow,

And let the chaos fade.

Lean into the rhythm,

Your beautiful breath has made. 

LONG PAUSE

Now imagine yourself still,

In the middle of this roaring storm.

It may be cold out there,

But in here, you’re toasty warm. 

PAUSE

Melt a little deeper,

Into the stillness within.

Focus to expand it now,

Let all else continue to spin.

LONG PAUSE

Can you find some peace,

In this sacred space of calm? 

While winds continue to blow,

Thunder continues to drum?

PAUSE

Feel your feet connect with,

The energy of the Earth.

Feel the vibrations rise up,

And remind you of your worth. 

PAUSE

This storm is not you,

The winds will fade away,

When you choose to be,

The calm in the chaos today.

LONG PAUSE

This storm is not you,

The winds will fade away,

When you choose to be,

The calm in the chaos today.

Namaste, Beautiful

To all of you mothers, 

Whose babies are new,

Who sleeplessly hold your sweet ones.

May you find rest,

And know in your soul,

You can handle whatever comes. 

PAUSE

To all of you moms, 

Who have little kids,

Whose values you’re trying to mold. 

I know it is heavy,

But Divine is right here,

Helping you to carry the load. 

PAUSE

To all of you mothers, 

Deep in the teens,

Doing your best to survive.

Keep showing up,

As the mother they need,

And watch as they thrive.

PAUSE

To all of you mamas,

Whose kids are grown up,

Carving out paths all alone.

It can be tough,

As you learn to let go, 

And let them live lives of their own. 

PAUSE

To all of you souls,

Who have said goodbye,

To your mother whose time had come.

That hole will remain,

Inside of you,

Grief braids itself in who you become. 

PAUSE

Breathe and relax,

I deeply honor you. 

Breathe and sink in,

To your motherly truth.

LONG PAUSE

Feel your motherly essence, 

Swirl with the past,

With the women who’ve mothered your soul. 

Let it surround you,

As you mother your own,

Beautiful mama, you are whole. 

LONG PAUSE

There is sweet comfort,

Knowing there is,

An invisible, unspoken bond.

Between all us moms, 

Who won’t judge or pry,

We’ll do anything to bring calm. 

PAUSE

So imagine your kids, 

And your mother too,

And all of the mamas around. 

We’re connected with love,

That moves mountains,

The magic is truly profound. 

PAUSE

Dear mama, I wish,

For you to feel me,

When I say I truly love you.

I honor your soul,

And on this Mother’s Day,

May you feel loved and full. 

Namaste, Beautiful

Amidst the chaos and the noise,

The busyness of the day,

You push yourself to keep on going,

To keep up the frenzied pace.

PAUSE...

But when you feel quite drained,

Your spirit yearns for retreat,

A place to rest and renew,

And let your soul just breathe.

PAUSE...

You find your haven in nature,

Where the earth and sky unite.

With soft green grass beneath your feet,

It all just feels so right.

PAUSE...

You close your eyes and hear the sounds,

Of rustling leaves and birds,

Release the tension you’ve been holding,

Let go of your worries and hurt.

PAUSE...

Inhaling deeply, you smell the scents,

Of the earth, the flowers, the grass.

Your senses are fully awakened,

You embrace this moment to last.

PAUSE...

As you lie down on the ground,

The earth supports your weight,

You let yourself surrender,

Into a calm and peaceful state. 

PAUSE...

With each exhale, release the stress,

And let your body ease.

Feel your breath become steady,

And surrender to the breeze. 

LONG PAUSE...

In this space of stillness,

You find a strength so deep.

Renewed, refreshed, and ready,

It almost makes you weep. 

PAUSE...

In these moments of rest,

You hear your voice inside.

You’re reminded of your purpose,

And know that it will guide.

PAUSE...

Slow down to speed up, 

Rest and renew right now.

I promise you’ll find joy,

If you just stop and allow. 

PAUSE...

Slowing, slowing, slowing down,

Each breath fills you more.

Calming, calming, calming down,

Tranquility’s in your core. 

Namaste, Beautiful

Your mind is always in motion,

There are always things to do. 

There’s so much invisible work, 

That always relies on you. 

PAUSE…

It’s not that you are mad,

That there’s so much to hold.

But sometimes it all feels, 

So heavy and uncontrolled. 

PAUSE…

So let this be your time, 

For me to honor you,

For the millions of tiny details,

That you heroically do. 

Allow yourself to settle,

And find the sweet caress,

Of the rhythm of your breathing,

It’s gentle, sweet finesse. 

PAUSE…

Now let yourself unravel,

Releasing all the weight,

You have carried mountains, 

Now take them off your plate. 

PAUSE…

Breathe…

And let it all go. 

Breathe…

Find a gentle flow. 

LONG PAUSE…

You probably may not notice, 

How special it is at all,

That you manage so much,

All the big and small.

PAUSE…

Not only are you planning,

All you need for you. 

You’re in charge of others, 

And their to-do list too. 

PAUSE…

The money, the home, the kids,

All are in your queue.

Each with their own needs, 

That always need review. 

PAUSE…

It often overwhelms you,

But I hope it makes you see,

That you are such a goddess,

This I guarantee. 

PAUSE…

They say that you won’t get,

More than you can hold. 

So know that you are mighty,

A wonder to behold. 

PAUSE…

Breathe…

And let it all go. 

Breathe…

Find a gentle flow. 

LONG PAUSE…

I see see you and the work you do,

I see your loving heart. 

I honor everything you hold, 

You have left your mark. 

Namaste, Beautiful

Let it all float away, mama. 

All those worries, concerns or stresses you may be feeling about whether or not you’re being a good mom. 

All those judgements that may be coming at you - whether they’re from others or yourself...let them all go. 

Even those quiet whispers that wonder how your kids will turn out as adults...let them go. 

And instead, sit in this truth.

You’re doing a great job, mama.  

And you are a phenomenal mother. 

And your little ones are so blessed to have you.

No matter how many mistakes you make.  

No matter how unique your style of parenting. 

No matter how many times you’ve broken down.

You are doing a great job. 

So the intention of today’s meditation is to give you the space to swim in the greatness of your mothering. So you can embrace the beauty of its imperfection and honor yourself for showing up every day.

Close your eyes and settle into a position that’s comfortable for you.  

Slow your breathing down,

Inhaling just a little more, 

And exhaling just a little longer. 

Feel the air come into the lungs and fill your belly. 

Relax your cheeks, 

Let your lower jaw release and let your tongue drop from the roof of your mouth.

Lower your shoulders, 

Soften your stomach,

Relax your legs.

Feel your body melting into your position. 

And breathe.

PAUSE…

This time is for you mama.  

To honor you. 

To remind you that you are doing a great job.

And that your kids are blessed to have you. 

Breathe deeply,

Exhale completely.

PAUSE…

I want you to imagine yourself sitting in your favorite spot in your home.  

You feel so comfortable here. You are safe and cozy.  

Take a deep breath in, filling your belly with air, 

And as you exhale, relax yourself further into your favorite spot.  

PAUSE…

Now imagine that your child walks into the room.

They’re 20 years older than they are now, 

An adult in the world. 

And they’re here in front of you, coming home to visit you, mama. 

Notice what you see on your face as you look at your child.

Joy. Pride. Gratitude.

Intense love lighting you up.

Your heart is full and you hear your inner voice whisper, you did a great job, mama.

Notice your chest expand with air as you drink in the sight in front of you. 

Your child is here, 

Healthy.

And authentically themselves.

PAUSE…

Notice that in this space of appreciation for the child you have raised, 

As you watch your beautiful kid in front of you,

There are no judgements. 

No guilt. 

No worries about your parenting or even about your child.

They do not exist here.  

All that exists is this incredible human in front of you.

And a deep knowing in your gut that you have done a great job. 

And you continue to do a great job. 

PAUSE…

Now take a deep breath in, inhaling oxygen deep into your body,

Feeling it nourish and cleanse you,

And breathe out completely, letting yourself sink deeper into relaxation.

PAUSE…

You will never be a perfect mom. 

There is no such thing. 

But you are the perfect mom for your child.

And no matter how many missteps you may make, 

No matter how much you second-guess yourself.

You are a phenomenal mother. 

And you’re doing a great job. 

Let your inner voice continue to guide you through the terrain of mothering. 

And trust that you are doing your best. 

And that your parenting journey is yours to co-create with your child.

Every single day. 

PAUSE…

You probably noticed by the title that this episode just came out the other day, but I'm re-releasing it again because it's guided by my very good friend, Sara Dean, and I did not give her the proper introduction she deserves. So, it's here for you again.

But first, a bit about Sara.

Sara Dean is the host of the Shameless Mom Academy podcast. She is such an advocate for mamas living their best lives and really getting real about what this job of motherhood is actually about - the highs, the lows...everything. And ultimately, she just wants each of us mamas to be boldly ourselves. Go subscribe to her podcast right now!

https://shamelessmom.com/

The reason this meditation is so special is because Sara's not a meditation guide. She's just so passionate about helping mamas live intentional lives! So, I reached out to her to ask if she would create something special for you...and she did! It's gorgeous and I hope you love it as much as I do.

Love,

💗Katie

She exists within each of us, 

The mother of love.

And she’s waiting for you to say when.

She’s ready to hug you,

When you need it the most,

Ready to be stern now and then.

PAUSE…

She knows all the words,

That you needed to hear,

When you were a growing young girl.

She knows all the ways,

To fill up your heart,

So you can shine and twirl.

PAUSE…

So reach deep inside, 

And decide that you will,

Mother yourself with sweet care.

Then open up wide,

To the goodness that’s here,

This love is beyond compare. 

Breathe fully,

Deep into your core.

Exhale completely,

Relax a little more. 

LONG PAUSE…

See if you can ride,

The rhythms of your breath,

Its pace slows you down as you go.

Then feel your heart beat,

And know you are whole,

Destined to be here and in flow. 

PAUSE…

Breathe fully,

Deep into your core.

Exhale completely,

Relax a little more. 

LONG PAUSE…

Imagine those arms,

Wrapped around you tight,

As you melt into the depths of their love. 

Feel yourself surrender, 

To the healing and delight,

You are so beloved. 

PAUSE…

What do you need, sweet one?

How can I help?

I’m here to guide you to you.

I’ll heal all your wounds,

And help you back up,

Then remind you what to do. 

LONG PAUSE…

Feel the warmth from her heart,

The clarity from her mind,

This mother inside is all you.

You know who you are,

You know what you need,

So mother yourself through and through.

Namaste, Beautiful
