Ep.11 Meditation for when you need peace.

Unknown: 00:00:07

Hello, and welcome to the Borealis experience. I'm

Unknown: 00:00:11

your host Aurora, and I'm very happy to be spending some time

Unknown: 00:00:15

with you today on this very rainy and gray Sunday afternoon.

Unknown: 00:00:23

I just polish my

Unknown: 00:00:25

nails

Unknown: 00:00:27

because I figured they can dry while I speak while I spend time

Unknown: 00:00:32

with you. So we're so busy with the dogs and work at the farm

Unknown: 00:00:37

that I never really take time for myself in the last couple of

Unknown: 00:00:43

days, maybe two weeks. And yeah, I feel I have to live what I

Unknown: 00:00:50

preach

Unknown: 00:00:52

a little more. I hope you're doing well. I hope you get to

Unknown: 00:00:56

take time

Unknown: 00:00:59

for yourself. Put some time aside for yourself and enjoy

Unknown: 00:01:05

your own company.

Unknown: 00:01:07

Help When thoughts come up that you can simply observe them and

Unknown: 00:01:12

then go and don't engage in them. And maybe feel how you

Unknown: 00:01:17

feel connect to your heart. Put your hand onto your heart, or

Unknown: 00:01:23

maybe your hand on a belly, on your belly,

Unknown: 00:01:28

not a belly and connect to your body and know that your body is

Unknown: 00:01:33

always there for you. Always working to be in balance always

Unknown: 00:01:38

working for you to be healthy.

Unknown: 00:01:43

Today, I decided to post a little meditation for you

Unknown: 00:01:48

meditation for when you simply want to feel at peace.

Unknown: 00:01:55

Find a comfortable seat, or maybe lay down on the ground.

Unknown: 00:02:01

If you choose to sit down. Then roll your set bones back and

Unknown: 00:02:08

forth so that your

Unknown: 00:02:12

lower back. finally finds a little bit of an arch.

Unknown: 00:02:18

Roll your shoulders up and back

Unknown: 00:02:23

and slightly tuck your chin to elongate your neck

Unknown: 00:02:32

if you feel like it, close your eyes.

Unknown: 00:02:38

Take a deep inhale

Unknown: 00:02:42

through your nose and exhale through your mouth.

Unknown: 00:02:50

Inhale

Unknown: 00:02:53

and exhale

Unknown: 00:03:03

maybe you've been very busy in the last couple of days or

Unknown: 00:03:05

weeks. Maybe you feel exhausted. Maybe you feel totally energized

Unknown: 00:03:18

know that this is the sweet spot that you can always come back to

Unknown: 00:03:26

it is a space it is time that you give to yourself

Unknown: 00:03:35

and where you put your monkey mind into the back seat and your

Unknown: 00:03:40

heart is at the steering wheel.

Unknown: 00:03:45

So whatever your mind comes up with on this is boring. This is

Unknown: 00:03:50

different than I thought any judgemental thought any opinion.

Unknown: 00:03:57

let it float by.

Unknown: 00:03:59

It is your mind that is still in. Let's get shit done mode and

Unknown: 00:04:05

feels like this is a waste of time. I want to get things done.

Unknown: 00:04:09

I want to be out there and hustle. I want to connect with

Unknown: 00:04:13

people I don't want to miss out.

Unknown: 00:04:16

But your heart knows that you need this time

Unknown: 00:04:21

to be even more productive out there.

Unknown: 00:04:27

Again, deep inhale

Unknown: 00:04:32

and exhale

Unknown: 00:04:40

Inhale

Unknown: 00:04:45

and exhale

Unknown: 00:04:56

see how valuable this time is that you take

Unknown: 00:05:00

for your time, yourself, sorry. You can reflect about things

Unknown: 00:05:04

right after their meditation. You can let things go and you

Unknown: 00:05:09

can let things be

Unknown: 00:05:12

you can just be in the moment and enjoy your own presence.

Unknown: 00:05:18

And after this,

Unknown: 00:05:21

you can make better decisions. You make the decision based on

Unknown: 00:05:27

your true self.

Unknown: 00:05:36

Inhale

Unknown: 00:05:39

and exhale with the intention to let go.

Unknown: 00:05:44

Inhale to inhale, peace and quiet.

Unknown: 00:05:51

Exhale to let go tension and expectations.

Unknown: 00:05:58

Inhale to breathe in fresh air energy.

Unknown: 00:06:06

Exhale to let go of old energy, opinions, judgment

Unknown: 00:06:17

continue imagining

Unknown: 00:06:21

breathing in goodness

Unknown: 00:06:24

and exhaling stuff that you don't need anymore

Unknown: 00:06:55

now imagine other people listening to this episode to

Unknown: 00:06:59

this podcast and doing exactly the same. And they might be in

Unknown: 00:07:05

India and Germany and the US and the UK, and Switzerland.

Unknown: 00:07:14

We all have the same intention. Isn't that beautiful?

Unknown: 00:07:19

I hope it makes you feel connected, and even more

Unknown: 00:07:24

headpiece.

Unknown: 00:07:37

Come back to your breath.

Unknown: 00:07:40

Relax the muscles around your eyes.

Unknown: 00:07:44

Relax your jaw.

Unknown: 00:07:48

Relax your temple.

Unknown: 00:07:54

Relax your shoulders. Maybe one more time roll them up and back.

Unknown: 00:08:00

soft belly, soft forehead

Unknown: 00:08:11

I totally forgot to mention your arms at the beginning but you

Unknown: 00:08:14

probably know what is best for you.

Unknown: 00:08:17

Palms up facing the sky for openness and receiving

Unknown: 00:08:24

palms down for feeling grounded

Unknown: 00:08:34

come back to your breath

Unknown: 00:08:50

if you chose that episode, chances are that you feel

Unknown: 00:08:54

scattered that you feel distracted. Maybe not. But if

Unknown: 00:09:01

that's the case, sometimes I love to use visualization. So

Unknown: 00:09:09

are you walking barefoot through a forest

Unknown: 00:09:15

smell that scent of the trees

Unknown: 00:09:20

branches cracking under your feet.

Unknown: 00:09:26

light shining through the leaves

Unknown: 00:09:31

or maybe you walk on a beach

Unknown: 00:09:35

and feel the sand between your toes.

Unknown: 00:09:39

Whichever image makes you feel good and at peace you pick and

Unknown: 00:09:45

then you just walk and breathe and feel your environment.

Unknown: 00:09:52

Feel how at peace you are.

Unknown: 00:09:57

This will directly affect you

Unknown: 00:10:00

A heart and how you feel sitting down or laying down

Unknown: 00:10:11

your thoughts are

Unknown: 00:10:13

so incredibly powerful, they affect everything they affect

Unknown: 00:10:18

your environment. And they felt affect how you feel about

Unknown: 00:10:23

yourself how you feel about your environment.

Unknown: 00:10:27

So if you can bring up beautiful, peaceful images

Unknown: 00:10:35

it is a good way to discipline your mind and to positively

Unknown: 00:10:39

affect your heart.

Unknown: 00:10:43

And when your heart is in a good and happy place,

Unknown: 00:10:47

then your body is in a happy and good place and

Unknown: 00:10:52

secretes brings out however you say that in English, positive

Unknown: 00:10:57

hormones, endorphins, oxytocin

Unknown: 00:11:02

and that in order to makes you healthy, and stress resilient.

Unknown: 00:11:09

So to master your mind to discipline the mind

Unknown: 00:11:15

is such

Unknown: 00:11:17

a critical tool.

Unknown: 00:11:22

This is what I'm

Unknown: 00:11:24

helping you to do here. And I hope you can benefit from it. I

Unknown: 00:11:29

hope I can bring you peace

Unknown: 00:11:32

and goodness into your life.

Unknown: 00:11:37

Now if you were seated, bring your hands in prayer position in

Unknown: 00:11:44

front of your heart and bow down to your heart.

Unknown: 00:11:50

And if you were laying down, roll onto your side, push

Unknown: 00:11:54

yourself up into a comfortable seat

Unknown: 00:11:58

and place your hands in prayer position

Unknown: 00:12:02

pressing your thumbs against your heart

Unknown: 00:12:07

volume mind to your heart

Unknown: 00:12:13

the light in me honors the light and you

Unknown: 00:12:20

I deeply thank you for spending some time with me today.

Unknown: 00:12:27

I wish you

Unknown: 00:12:30

contentment peace of mind.

Unknown: 00:12:34

I hope you feel fulfilled

Unknown: 00:12:38

and

Unknown: 00:12:40

as if having a beautiful purpose in society

Unknown: 00:12:46

no matter how it looks like.

Unknown: 00:12:49
