Welcome here!
Last week we gave the invitation to begin again where it all began- Re-membering the Breath.
Check it out here if you missed it.
And now to today… let’s capture again the threads of who we are and weave them more consciously into a loving garment of warmth and beauty.
An Invitation
I invite you to close your eyes, if that feels good and safe for you. Leave them open, if that feels more comforting.
Welcome. Welcome here.
Welcome to time apart.
Time set apart.
Time chosen.
Chosen by you.
Chosen for you.
Because you matter.
Because you have chosen to savour unhurried time.
Unhurried time like waves rolling into a shore.
We don’t see the other shores the water has first caressed.
That’s ok.
We don’t see the other shores the water is yet to caress.
That’s ok.
We see now. We see here.
We are now. We are here.
Watch and hear and feel as a new wave approaches your shore.
This shore. Right now.
Let the wave come. Let it be.
Let the wave build to its crest in a seemingly endless moment.
Let the wave break.
That’s what waves do. Waves approach, waves build, waves crest, waves break.
Allow the breaking.
Allow the breaking of the wave as it approaches your shore.
Do you go to meet it? Walking from hot, loose, dry sand onto cold, firm, wet sand?
Do you choose to walk towards the wave?
Do you feel the changing surface and the changing temperature as you walk to the source of water?
Or do you wait?
Do you stand firm and wait?
Either are ok.
You get to choose.
Allow the choice to be yours.
Like a wave coming towards you.
As the wave comes, see the steady rolling in.
Hear the energy and life of water and foam, vibrant and zinging as it races to spend itself.
Feel the cool embrace and uplift of dancing water.
Hear, see, feel.
Hear, see, feel the wave. No longer at a distance, but now, fully surrounding you.
Allow the vibrancy.
Allow the uplifting energy.
Allow the pulling back as the sea claims once more the water it brought to your shore.
Allow the letting go.
Allow the building again as another wave makes its way towards the shore. This shore. Here, now.
Allow.
Accept. Accepting. Acceptance.
Let waves of acceptance approach.
One at a time.
Moment by moment.
Like waves of the sea. Let acceptance wash towards you.
Will you go to meet it? Will you wait patiently for it to reach you?
Either are ok.
Let the waves be as acceptance.
Hear, see, feel acceptance wash over you.
Let it be.
Let it be.
When you are ready open your eyes if they were closed.
Find your way back here.
Welcome here.
Welcome now.
May your life be full of the peace acceptance brings.
Accept joy into your being.
Have a wonderful day.
Lovingly,
Melanie Williams de Amaya
