Samadhi Bliss; Body and the senses at rest. Deep sleep. Flow state. Seeing the infinite part of ourselves. Be Here Now Present moment awareness. In every pause, you get the opportunity to renew your commitment to staying present. Find your breath. What’s happening now? Winter Solstice Shift from darkness to light. Sense of hope. Reconnecting with the quiet and stillness. Finding ease in the stillness. The rest before activity. Movement Focus The physical focus of our practice will be core, chest and shoulder opening. Winter Solstice Meditation and Ritual Activate your intentions for the new year by turning inward and awakening your inner fire with this Solstice ritual: Create a cozy meditation nest
Connect to the energy of the Earth. Close your eyes and visualize roots growing from the soles of your feet, or your tailbone if you are sitting down to the center of the Earth around which you wind your roots and your awareness. Breathe deeply and allow your body to relax and experience the sensation of being completely supported by the Earth. Reminisce about the past year, allowing memories to surface effortlessly. Write down all that arose which you'd like to bid farewell to or let go. You can rip up or burn the paper to symbolize those energies being transmuted into creative passion for your adventures to come. Visualize the year ahead, dreaming up everything you'd like to manifest. Write down all of your hopes for the coming year. Add, "this or something better," as the Universe often has more magnificent plans than we could possibly imagine. Fold this paper and keep it or bury it, to represent the seeds of these intentions being planted in your future path. And then release, be patient, these seeds need time and space to sprout. |
