So Let’s Begin…

THE DANCES OF OUR EMOTIONS MEDITATION SCRIPT

Come inside,

centering yourself.

Turn off the outside world.

PAUSE

Allow yourself a moment

to be in the present,

becoming aware of 

all that’s around you.

PAUSE

If a distracting thought

passes by, let it.

Your focus 

Is on you.

PAUSE

Now, from this 

calm, observant place,

imagine the emotion of Fear 

as a tap dancer.

PAUSE

For a moment,

Fear is quiet.

And then, the tapping begins.

It starts slowly,

then intensifies,

becoming louder, faster

more robust.

It may even feel a bit desperate.

PAUSE

Take a moment to watch Fear dance.

What do you see from the dance?

What can you understand about

your Fear as she dances?

Take hold of this healing knowledge.
Bring it into your consciousness.

PAUSE

Now, breathe.
Let Fear fade,
and calm return to you.

PAUSE

After a moment,

you notice the emotion

of Grief rising from the ground,

like a modern lyrical dancer.

PAUSE

Grief’s moves are powerful,

and filled with pain.

Grief’s arms rise high and fall low,

and he jumps in the air in splits,

before falling to the ground

on his knees.

Grief is aware that he must keep moving

through the pain.

How can you use Grief’s dance

to understand and move through pain?

Bring this awareness into you.

PAUSE

Now, breathe.
Let Grief fade,
and calm return to you.

PAUSE

After a minute,

notice the emotion of Joy

twirling with warmth and happiness.

PAUSE

Joy moves her hips,

brings her arms up high.

Every step is filled

with beauty.

What is Joy saying to you

about your life?

Is Joy with you?

PAUSE

Take a moment,

and allow yourself to feel your Joy.

Allow yourself to integrate Joy

into your being.

PAUSE

Draw in a deep breath,

and give thanks to these emotions

and their dances.

Know they are a part of you,

and that they can be danced through

with grace, love and success.

Always.

NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
