This meditation is timeless. May it be of benefit to you no matter when you watch it. It's all about the VIBE, not the timing.

If you’re ready to blossom in your career, in your relationships and in your life, then the Full Flower Moon is just what you need.

Blooming season is in full swing and you can take advantage of the power this time of year offers. With Mother Nature showing off her best, be sure to notice the magic happening all around you. Take time to literally stop and smell the flowers. Admire their colors and textures and scents. See how they point their happy little faces toward the sun, then you do the same (eyes closed, of course!).

The Flower Moon is a beautiful time to refresh our goals and give birth to new creative ideas.

It’s the perfect opportunity to let your own colors burst forth with enthusiasm and innovation and confidence. Use this time to develop new ideas, to learn a new skill, to hone your unique talents. It’s also a period to spend more time with Mother Nature appreciating the beauty of the season. With this powerful moon energy in the air, try this technique:

The next time you take a walk, pick up a small stone. As you hold it in your hands, feel the smooth surface and admire its simplicity. Then hold it close to your heart as you whisper into it something you are choosing to release – perhaps an old habit, an outdated belief, an obsolete version of yourself you no longer wish to be (maybe it’s time for the 2.0 version of yourself). Then toss the stone into a lake or the ocean or an open field. And, as you do, feel yourself letting go of what no longer serves you. Feel the relief in both a physical and emotional way.

Let’s celebrate the “new you” right now by tapping into the beautiful power only a full moon can bring with another 10-minute guided meditation…

Welcome back to another 10-minute meditation. I hope this finds you well in Body, Mind and Spirit. As always, together we will embrace the power, the wisdom and the guidance that the full moon brings.

This month, we are turning our attention to the creative and vibrant energy of the Flower Moon. This moon ushers in the height of Springtime with flowers blooming all around us. But this powerful energy is not just for flowers.

This moon cycle offers us yet another opportunity to blossom into an enhanced version of ourselves. So let’s embrace the chance to

Be bold. Be brilliant. Be beautiful. Be ourselves.

Right now, find a quiet place to relax where you can be free from responsibility and remain undisturbed for our time together.

Close your eyes. Take a deep breath in and let it out very slowly as you feel yourself coming into this present moment. Inhale and hold it for a moment as you gather up everything that’s been holding you back. Then, on the exhale, let it all go and give it over to the beautiful Moon so you can tap into her pure, positive energy instead. Take another deep, deep breath in and as you exhale, drop your shoulders down. And, as you do, imagine all the stress, all the worry, all the anxiety, all the pain, all the obstacles, all the fear running down your arms and out of your body. Surrender all your troubles to Mother Earth and instead focus on all the possibilities that the brilliant full moon brings.

Now that you feel at ease, your mind begins to relax. With your eyes closed, let’s use our mind’s eye instead to take a journey together for a little while…

Imagine yourself walking along an old country road. The path is well-worn and smooth under your feet. You feel the peaceful energy of the trees as you stroll along. Set back from the road and with the breeze behind them, it looks as though the trees are waving to you. You smile as you walk slowly, mindfully. You’re in no rush. You are enjoying the simplicity of the moment. You feel so much peace whenever you spend time with Mother Nature. You’re picking up her high-energy vibe and your heart swells with appreciation for the beauty she provides just for you.

You admire the magnificent array of flowers that carpet the ground between you and the trees. You see the frilly yellow dresses of daffodils standing tall. You notice the velvety petals of petunias in the deepest shade of purple you’ve ever seen. You look at the full white faces of lilies swaying lazily in the breeze. You notice a streak of red as poppies command your attention. Your eyes wander to a vine of orange trumpets. You close your eyes and you can almost hear the delightful music they are playing. They emit a frequency you can sense is Divine. You listen closely because they are whispering something in your ear…words of encouragement, words of inspiration, words of love.

You then realize you’ve been so caught up in the moment that you’ve lost track of time. You turn to look for the position of the sun to guide you back home. But the sun has already set. And yet, all of this beauty is still so visible and so clear to see. So you look to the sky and witness the big, beautiful, bright Full Flower Moon. Its radiance is so intense that it brightens the night sky and is still powerful enough to light your path.

With a sense of comfort, you allow the moon to guide you home. And with a happy heart, you feel yourself coming back to your actual home…back to the place where you began this journey. You feel the surface beneath you as you wiggle your fingers and your toes. You feel yourself becoming more and more present.

Before you become fully alert once again, you recall the music of the orange trumpets and the message brought to you on notes so beautiful you almost cry. The flowers told you this:

Be bold. Be brilliant. Be beautiful. Be yourself.

With that message, you come fully into this moment. You are fully present. You are fully aware that there is so much love in your heart and so much creativity ready to blossom within you. And for this, you are grateful.

You take a deep breath in and as you drop your shoulders down, it’s as though you are dropping into a newer, better, more enhanced version of yourself. You are becoming who you’ve always dreamed you could be.

You remind yourself that this feeling, this energy, this potential is already a part of you and is always available to you. Then, as you open your eyes, you are ready to finally and fully begin the becoming of you.

And, as you do, may you enjoy a most magical journey.

Namaste.
