Soul Fire Holistics

This time of year lends itself to reflection and finding things in which we are grateful. Practices in gratitude are so beneficial for healing and finding ease. But when we are experiencing grief, anger, or despair, forcing ourselves to be grateful can be inauthentic and ineffective. We can, instead, work on honoring the grief that lives in the body AND making space for gratitude. There is room for both. 

Option to sit with this recording while you journal. Feel free to hit pause for as long as necessary. Perhaps you revisit this meditation again....and again, as you build "muscle memory" for carving out new neural pathways in the brain.

In this 5:09 minute long guided visualization, imagine breathing in the color of calm, and exhaling out the color of anger. Say to yourself, "I control my response to anger."

In this 5:44 minute visualization, connect with the people who love and support you the most. Take this time to feel your community, send them thoughts of love and kindness, and feel loving kindness come back to you. 

In this short, 2 minute guided visualization, you will be invited to "sweep away" any distractions, leaving you ready to receive new information.
