I see you writhing,

I watch as you shake,

The pain inside of you grows.

You try to hide it,

With busyness and smiles,

You think that none of it shows. 

PAUSE

I remember that black spiral,

The suffering inside,

The painful dark night of the soul.

I reach out to hug you,

Knowing I can’t save you,

I see everything you hold. 

PAUSE

I have to let you fall,

Down, down, down.

I have to let you break,

And pick yourself up from the ground. 

LONG PAUSE

Your demons are roaming,

Black grains of sand,

Wanting to take over your heart.

Don’t let them consume you,

Just come back inside,

Breathe…and remember who you are. 

PAUSE

I know it feels heavy,

You’re dizzy and scared,

But there is purpose in the pain.

You’ll have to get honest,

And feel everything,

Unravel the blame and the shame. 

PAUSE

So let yourself fall,

Down, down, down.

Let yourself break,

Pick yourself up from the ground. 

LONG PAUSE

In between your breathes,

In the spaces between thoughts,

Pools of peace await.

You have to slow down,

To come deep inside,

Surrender to the water’s weight. 

PAUSE

You’ll question, you’ll cry,

You’ll grieve and you’ll wish,

This space is safe for it all. 

Let it all burn,

Then rise from the ashes,

A new you will emerge from it all. 

PAUSE

You know you can fall,

Down, down, down.

You know you can break, 

And fly far from the ground. 

Namaste, Beautiful

The intention of today’s meditation is to invite healing into your body, mind and soul. 

So go ahead and let your body settle into a comfortable position.

Let yourself move around a little bit, releasing any tension or pain,

So you can drop even further into your position. 

And when you’ve found that sweet spot that you know so well, take a deep breath in,

And as you exhale, release and relax.

PAUSE…

Listen to your breathing. 

Hear the soft hums of the air going in and out of your nose. 

Feel your chest and belly expanding and contracting.

And feel your body getting heavier with every breath out.

Breathe…

PAUSE…

Maybe there are parts of you that are hurting, my love. 

Maybe your external or internal body is feeling weak or in pain.

Perhaps your mind is holding things that are heavy.

Maybe a part of your soul feels unsettled. 

There may even be deep pain hiding inside of you.

It’s all okay, beautiful.

We can all feel a little broken sometimes.

These moments cannot dim your light. 

In fact, they make your light even brighter. 

And your light is what is here to heal you. 

PAUSE…

So let yourself relax a little bit more and as you do, imagine that your body is easing into a warm pool of water. 

See yourself comfortably floating in this quiet, still pool, 

Feeling the gentle tickle of the water on the sides of your face and the crown of your head. 

Let your arms relax into the water, letting them naturally spread and release.

Let your chest, back and stomach surrender to the buoyancy of the water. 

And let your legs open and your feet fall to the sides as you surrender yourself to the water. 

PAUSE…

You can feel the warm water soothe you.  Relax you.  

And as it does, you begin to feel a soft hum coming from the water,

And see it glowing with a soft blue light.  

Feel the blue light embrace you through the water,

And invite it to take away the pain, the worries and the brokenness.

PAUSE…

See yourself lying in this pool glowing with soft blue light,

Releasing the heaviness,

And letting yourself be healed as you breathe. 

PAUSE…

Feel the warmth on your head as the healing blue light touches it,

And then on your eyes,

Your cheeks,

Your mouth,

And your neck.  

Let it heal you.

PAUSE…

Feel the healing blue light touch your shoulders, 

Your chest,

Your arms and hands,

Your stomach,

And your hips.

Breathe in this soft blue light and feel the warmth heal you,

Feel it in your legs, 

Your feet,

And your toes. 

And then imagine yourself covered completely in this soft, healing blue light. 

Let it’s warm glow release all the pain, 

The emotions,

The past,

The brokenness. 

Leave it here, 

With the glowing blue light of the water. 

It’s here to heal you.

PAUSE…

Let it all go, beautiful,

And let the soft blue light of the water around you heal you. 

Namaste, Beautiful.

Breathe now…

And bring yourself inside. 

Melt down,

And open to the night. 

PAUSE…

You can hear its gentle whispers,

Beyond the orchestra of noise. 

Your mind is spinning wildly,

All the chaos really annoys.

PAUSE…

The tasks, 

The plans,

The worries and the fears,

They’re screaming at you now. 

They want you to believe,

They’re your world somehow.

PAUSE…

But once you breathe…

And open space,

You see that they’re not you.

You come inside,

And touch your soul,

Calm lives within here too.

PAUSE…

Here you are, 

In this sacred space.

Right here and now,

In this calming place. 

LONG PAUSE…

Calm is warm,

Calm is clear,

Calm is quiet,

Calm is here.

LONG PAUSE…

No longer can those thoughts control,

Your entire world. 

When you bring yourself to the calm,

All those thoughts unfurl. 

PAUSE…

Here you are, 

In this sacred space.

Right here and now,

In this calming place. 

PAUSE…

Calm is warm,

Calm is clear,

Calm is quiet,

Calm is here.

LONG PAUSE…

The more you melt your body,

The more you soften your face,

The more you allow your breathing,

To detach you from the race. 

PAUSE…

The more your mind will empty,

The more your soul will fill,

With calming energy to slow you down,

Relax, and be still. 

LONG PAUSE…

Calm is here within you,

In any moment you need. 

Just close your eyes and take a breath,

To slow your mind’s fast speed. 

PAUSE…

Once you’ve come into calm,

There’s nothing left to do.

Surrender to the stillness,

Everything’s here for you. 

LONG PAUSE…

Here you are, 

In this sacred space.

Right here and now,

In this calming place. 

PAUSE…

Calm is warm,

Calm is clear,

Calm is quiet,

Calm is here.

LONG PAUSE…

Namaste, Beautiful

Falling, 

Falling, 

Falling down. 

No nets or ropes in sight. 

Spinning,

Spinning,

Spinning ‘round.

Surrender to free flight. 

LONG PAUSE…

All those things you want to hold,

To protect within your arms. 

All those details you need to know,

To keep away from harm. 

PAUSE…

They all pile up within your grasp,

For a moment you might think.

That you have everything figured out,

There’s not one single chink. 

PAUSE…

But no matter how much you try,

You can’t control it all. 

They’ll sneak out of your loving hold,

And out of reach they’ll fall. 

PAUSE…

So when you feel sick with stress,

‘Cause everything’s spinning by. 

Open your arms and release them all, 

Let faith be your trusted guide. 

LONG PAUSE…

Let yourself sink into,

The rhythms of your breath. 

The ins and outs slow down now,

And take you to your depths. 

PAUSE…

See if you can expand,

More of the space inside.

Clear your mind of all the thoughts,

Brush them to the side. 

PAUSE…

Falling, 

Falling, 

Falling down. 

No nets or ropes in sight. 

Spinning,

Spinning,

Spinning ‘round.

Surrender to free flight. 

LONG PAUSE…

I know that what you’re grasping,

Feels big and crucial too.

But know that you are not alone,

The Divine can help you through. 

PAUSE…

Open your arms and take a leap,

The wind hears your desires.

There is joy in the free fall, 

Faith is all it requires. 

PAUSE…

Falling, 

Falling, 

Falling down. 

You need no nets tonight.

Spinning,

Spinning,

Spinning ‘round.

Surrender to free flight. 

LONG PAUSE…

Namaste, Beautiful

How do you feel when you wake up in the morning lately? 

I’ve noticed that I wake up under the weight of a never-ending task list. I spend my mornings in my head, organizing, prioritizing and putting life’s puzzle pieces together. 

I get a lot of satisfaction out of this. (Anyone else’s brain work like tetris?)

But, I’ve noticed that there’s an undercurrent of anxiety here. Kinda like, if I keep checking things off this task list, “it” won’t get me. I can keep “it” at bay. 

What is “it?”

I’m not too sure yet.  

But what I do know is that there are a lot of moving parts in my life right now. (You too?). Many big things in transition. So, perhaps my tetris brain feels some sense of control as all these things are on the move.  

Perhaps this in and of itself is fine, but what about the underlying worry? 

It’s like I’m watching an artist painting a mural and I’m unsure of how the big, red stroke of color she just made fits in. I can’t see the larger picture.  

So I worry.  

I let anxiety pool up inside my mind and body and fret about each brushstroke. I seem to forget that I can just sit back and trust that the artist will create the most magical masterpiece.

That I can surrender to the flow of the process. 

And I forget that I am the artist.  

And that I am creating this vision with the Universe.

Can you think of an area of your life where you are in the energy of worry lately?

What are you always trying to control? What are you always trying to organize? 

Now breathe…

How can you invite in more trust? 

How can you loosen your grip on all the details? 

Trust the process.

Trust yourself. 

Trust the flow. 

Trust in the divine purpose of it all. 

And how does that make you feel?

Today I’m making a few declarations, commitments to myself, and you’re welcome to join in with me if it feels right for you.

I choose to pause each morning and become aware of my energy. 

I choose to remember who I am, so that I may move through my day aligned. 

I choose to follow what feels good, and trust my intuition. 

I choose to remember that I am the painter…the creator of my life. Each color, each brushstroke is up to me. 

I choose to let go of the energy of worry and surrender to the energy of trust. 

I would love to know what this brings up for you and how it applies to your life right now.  

And, I would really appreciate you sharing your reviews on Apple Podcasts…let me know what meditations you loved, and perhaps some meditations you’d like more of.  

I love you.

With just a single breath…

You can touch the space,

That pulses with magic inside. 

With just a single breath…

You can connect to,

All the Universe provides. 

LONG PAUSE

So let yourself fall,

Into the stream, 

The movement of breath in and out. 

Let yourself go,

And trust in the flow,

That weaves its way throughout. 

LONG PAUSE

Now see if you find,

What floats in your mind,

All those thoughts can release. 

Let them enter the stream,

Of your breath exiting,

And feel your inhale bring peace. 

LONG PAUSE

Each part of your body,

Relaxes and melts,

The tension has faded away.

What’s holding you up,

Is soft, yet firm,

Allowing you to be here today.

LONG PAUSE

Let gratitude fill,

Each inhale right now,

As time stands still for you.

You realize that now,

This moment right here,

Is all that exists and is true. 

LONG PAUSE

You’re filled with a wave,

Of freshness and love,

You see all the beauty around.

You see all the magic,

The energies collide,

You see that your life is profound. 

LONG PAUSE

So breathe in again,

And this time, smile wide,

Let all that’s been heavy dissolve.

You get to choose,

How you’ll live this day,

So choose to love and evolve. 

PAUSE

With just a single breath…

You can touch the space,

That pulses with magic inside. 

With just a single breath…

You can connect to,

All the Universe provides.

Hey, it’s Katie and I’m here for a mid-month check in. How are you? How’s your month coming along? How’s your mental health? 

We’re well into Mental Health Awareness Month and I hope you’ve really been enjoying all the bonus and guest meditations we’ve been providing across the network. The team and I have been working hard to make sure you have a wide variety of meditations and voices to support you! 

I’m sharing honestly today about why we need to “slow down to speed up” and what that’s actually looked like for me this month (single mommying with hubs out of town, end of school extra activities and moving!). It ain’t been pretty y'all. 

But I’m sharing because we all have these heavy seasons and I’ll walk you through what worked for me to lighten the load and helped me slow down, all in the name of preserving my mental health. 

I also share a poem/meditation I wrote recently called “A Million Little Reasons” that I hope really speaks to your heart. 

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

1) Tuesday, May 21 is World Meditation Day! We’re celebrating with a special “World Meditation Day Meditation” going live on all our podcasts. Come meditate with us! 

2) FREE MASTERCLASS: On June 18 at 1pm est, I’ll be co-hosting a Live Masterclass with my friend JJ Flizanes called “The Roadmap to Emotional Healing.” You can find out more and sign up for free here: 

http://jjflizanes.com/wmn

Lastly, if you’re enjoying our meditations, we would be so grateful for your rating and reviews on Apple Podcasts! It always helps others just like you find us easily. 

Thank you so much for listening and I love you! 

Katie

Allow your eyes to close, 

And your body to gently soften. 

Breathe…

Deeply,

Completely. 

And let your breath bring its soft waves of peace into you,

Deep within your center.

Cleansing you,

Calming you. 

In, 

And out,

Collecting every grain of anxious sand,

And releasing it with every exhale. 

LONG PAUSE

Breathe…

And let your shoulders drop,

Your eyes become heavy,

Your cheeks soften. 

PAUSE

Feel the cool flow of your breath,

Travel from the top of your spine, 

Down, 

Down,

Down,

Till it reaches your tailbone, 

Filling your spine with space,

Stretching you tall, 

Releasing all the tension, 

And filling you will stillness. 

PAUSE

Now find the heaviness in your chest,

Where the buildup of anxiety might be. 

Breathe deeply into it, 

Feeling your chest expand,

And create more spaciousness inside. 

PAUSE

Imagine your breath encompassing the hot spots of anxiety and worry,

Massaging them gently,

Until they dissolve,

And disappear,

As you sink further into relaxation. 

PAUSE

Release and relax,

Release and be free. 

Release and come back,

To the you you’re meant to be. 

LONG PAUSE

Right now,

In this moment, 

Everything is fine. 

Stay here,

In this moment,

One with your body,

One with your soul,

One with the Divine. 

PAUSE

Sink even further,

Into the comfort of the present moment.

Surrender yourself to it, 

Honoring any discomfort, 

And then giving it permission to release.

PAUSE

Let go of your tight hold,

On all the things you want to control,

All of the details that you want to organize,

All of the unknowns. 

PAUSE

Let them gather in your mind,

Gather in your body,

And release with every breath out. 

LONG PAUSE

Loosen your grip,

On all of the shoulds, 

All the expectations, 

All the judgments. 

Watch them gather as you inhale, 

And release as you breathe out. 

PAUSE

Let it all go. 

PAUSE

Release and relax,

Release and be free. 

Release and come back,

To the you you’re meant to be. 

LONG PAUSE

You are exactly where you’re meant to be right now.

Exactly who you’re meant to be.

Follow your breath inside, 

And touch the divine you who knows,

Who feels,

Who sees,

Who creates your own world.

Overflowing with love,

And peace. 

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
