Courage

This is another short meditation.

Close you eyes - allow your centre to arise, the place where you know who you are. The place where all that you are, all that you could possibly be is located in your physical body. If you struggle to find that place, start to scan your body. Start at the top of your head. Scan from the very top of your scalp, allow the energy or awareness to travel over the surface of your body. Down over your forehead, taking in both eyes and eye sockets, the bridge of your nose, then over both cheeks, right around to the side of your head. Now over whole of your nose and both nares. The top lip, the tongue, the lower lip, the chin, both ears. Allow your awareness to descend slowly, luxuriously, over the surface of YOUR skin.

Now take your attention to the back of your head, the scalp and hair follicles, down the entire surface of the back of your head, now take in the throat, and the back of the neck, both shoulders, front and back, the upper arms, the elbows, the forearms the wrists, the palms right to the tips of your fingers. See if you can allow the front and the back of the arms and hands to arise simultaneously. You are directing your attention to the surface of your skin. Allow your awareness to build gently and fully. You are sitting there fully aware of the entire surface of your body that we have scanned thus far.

Now take your attention to the front of your body, right around to the mid central area of each flank or side. You are scanning the surface of your skin on you upper chest, your middle chest, your lower chest, down to your diaphragm, allow your attention linger over the surface BUT continue to move on as soon as awareness has arisen. Continue to scan down your body into your belly, your lower abdomen, down to the top of your pelvis through to your perineum.

Now take your attention to the back. You are systematically scanning the whole of your back - from the top of the shoulders descend in a steady and logical sequence. Upper back, middle of your back - right around to meet the centre of both flanks or sides. Down to the lower back, to the back of the pelvis, through to the perineum. Allow all aspects of the skin and the sensations available to you to be fully present. Do not make up stories about anything - you are just observing, no commentary, no thoughts are to intrude - if they do, allow them to just drift by - do not get engaged in them.

Now take your attention to both your legs, the front of both thighs. Your attention descends to your knees, to your lower leg, ankles and feet. Now take your attention to the back of your thighs, back of knees, calves , ankles and bottom of the feet right through to the tips of your toes.

Now allow your attention to sweep upwards, taking in all that you have attended to in your descent - sweep rapidly through back of your legs, the front of your legs, the back of your body, the front of your body, your fingers, palms, lower arms, upper arms, shoulders, neck and throat, back of head, chin, ears, lower lip sweeping rapidly right up to the top of your head.

Now that you have finished your sweep take your attention to the centre of your chest, about mid way between your nipples. This is your heart centre. the area where all thoughts, all feelings and all experiences are filtered. This is the centre of your being for this exercise.

Allow to arise in you heart centre any experience in you life where you experienced the love of another being - another sentient being - if you cannot bring to mind the love of other human beings than allow the love of any animals that you have experienced in your life to arise - all the sensations that you have experienced in the past of love and compassion to be present right here and now. Allow those sensations to be present right here and now.

Allow this sense to fill you up until it can no longer be contained - allow it to spill out into your etheric body - that electro vibratory part of your being. You love, you have been loved - allow that vibration to be present right now. Allow it to fill up the whole of your universe.

Now take your attention to a time when you believe you lacked courage - allow the situation, the circumstances to arise in your mind's eye. Allow all the narrative, all the story, all the visuals be present right now. Just let it be present in your life right now. In the centre of your heart. Allow, allow allow. All is right, all is perfect. Allow that to be fully here, fully now. Any judgements that you made of your self at that time arise now. When it is fully present, drop it.

Take your attention back to the time when you were loved. You might experience a full and warm sensation around your physical heart. You might experience a colour associated with that experience - it might be a light gold colour, or a gentle pink, or a soft, pale green, What ever arises for you is completely valid. No perfect way to do this. Allow the sensations, the colour to fill up your body, spill out to your electro vibratory body - the etheric field. Even if you have never heard this before allow the movement of ions, of qi or energy out to the envelope that surrounds your body - out about 2 cms from the surface of your skin - allow it to extend out about 10 cms now - out beyond that out to the very extent of your etheric field. It is here in this electrical shroud, this electrical envelope that healing takes place. Allow the charge to move out to the very edges of your envelope.

Now take your attention to the situation that you previously identified. Does it have the same intensity now as it did when you started the exercise? If it does then continue to switch backwards and forwards between these 2 experiences. If it has lessened in intensity allow the practise to drop away.

Take your attention back to your physical heart and the area around it. Allow the warmth and grace and beauty that is naturally you extend out through the whole of your body. You are a fine, magnificent vibratory body. Let your electrical circuit be restored to its original settings. Allow healing to take place, and allow it to take place now.

Know that you are loved - as you read this blog - even if you do not know me, know that as I write this at my keyboard that any one who plugs into this experience is loved, valued and is part of the greater body of consciousness of human kind.

Go about your daily life being kind, considerate and loving of others.

Love
