They can sneak into your mind,

With no warning at all,

All those fears.

The movies play within your head,

And pull you away from rest.

The scary scenes expand and meander and grow,

And soon, your eyes are open,

Your heart is racing,

And sleep has escaped from your body.

PAUSE…

But slow down, dear one,

And know the fears will dissolve,

The anxiety will disappear,

As you bring yourself out of your head,

And into this moment.

Present to what is,

And open to the comforting arms of deep sleep.

So breathe deeply,

Fully into your body,

And ask the universe to hold you,

To protect you and the ones you love,

As you surrender into her embrace.

PAUSE…

Let your attention settle into your breathing.

Aware of the cool air on your nose as you breathe in,

And the warm air on your nose as you breathe out.

In and out,

Over and over again.

Slowing down a little bit more with every breath.

PAUSE…

Become aware of what’s around you.

Listen to the soft noises of the night.

See the objects and people in your space.

Feel the blankets touching your body.

PAUSE…

Bring yourself here,

Into this moment.

Breathing in calm,

Breathing out the fear.

LONG PAUSE…

You are safe here.

Those around you are safe.

And everything is okay.

PAUSE…

So breathe,

And let your body melt deeper into your bed.

PAUSE…

Relax your feet.

Feel your legs get heavy.

Open your hips.

Soften your belly.

PAUSE…

Expand your chest.

Relax your back.

Release your arms.

PAUSE…

Lower your shoulders.

Release your jaw.

Soften your face.

LONG PAUSE…

Feel a soft, warm energy gently touching the top of your head.

Imagine this energy releasing the thoughts,

The visions,

The worries,

The fears,

With every breath out.

LONG PAUSE…

Breathe and release.

Breathe and rest.

PAUSE…

Breathe and release,

Breathe and rest.

LONG PAUSE…

The arms of the night hold you close,

And you fall into her embrace with trust.

Let her carry you safely into the depths of peaceful sleep,

Let her clear you,

And restore you.

PAUSE…

Everything is okay.

Sweet Dreams, Beautiful.

A Daily Meditation Practice to Keep You Present and Positive Jul 02, 2024

Show notes

Let’s begin by closing your eyes and getting into a comfortable position, either sitting or lying down.

Take a moment to notice any kinks or tension you may be feeling in your body,

Adjusting yourself as needed to relax further into your position.

Squeeze your eyes shut tight for one, two, three seconds…

And release, feeling them relax.

Squeeze your hands into tight fists for one, two, three seconds…

And release them, feeling them relax.

Tighten your legs and feet for one, two, three seconds…

Release and feel them melt further into their position.

Take a deep breath in, filling your belly with air as much as you can,

And breathe the air all the way out.

Now bring your breathing back to its normal rhythm,

And just be here.

Letting yourself be with the rhythm of your relaxed, calm body.

PAUSE…

I am grateful.

As you hear these words, I want you to finish the sentence silently in your mind, visualizing your answer and letting your face and your heart soften with love with each vision you see.

I am grateful for…

Notice the lightness. Notice the calm. Notice the sweet softness.

There is so much to be grateful for right now.

Take another moment to sit in all the blessings in your life right now.

PAUSE…

Now imagine the trees around you. The grass. The leaves. The water. The snow. The rain. The birds. The animals.

Let all the realities of mother nature surrounding you, in whatever form that may be right now, come to mind.

And let yourself feel connected to her.

Let yourself hear the birds.

Feel the warmth of the sun or the crispness of the air.

See the water or the snow or the clouds or trees outside your window.

Imagine yourself feeling the sand or grass or dirt under your feet.

You are a part of this earth.

Right here, right now.

And we are connected here.

In this moment.

See yourself connected to the nature around you, pulling you into this present moment.

You are love.

You are light.

You are kindness and compassion.

And your light can shine on others today,

Bringing more love into our world.

Now take a deep breath in, feeling yourself glow brighter and brighter,

And exhale, watching as that glow radiates out from you.

Another deep breath in, watching your light glow even brighter,

And breathe your light out into the world around you.

One last deep breath in, feeling your light filling every part of your body,

And exhale your light out onto the world.

Bring your breathing to its normal rhythm, bringing your hands to your heart and bowing your head to your hands.

The light in me honors the light in you.

Namaste, Beautiful.

Meditation: Stress Relief - Let It Go Jul 02, 2024

Show notes

Find a comfortable position and close your eyes.

Take a deep breath in, inhaling fresh air in and expanding your belly.

And when you can’t breathe in anymore, exhale and breathe the air out of your nose,

All the way out.

Take one more deep breath in, filling up your chest and your belly with cool, cleansing air,

And breathe it all the way out.

Bring your breathing to its normal rhythm,

And allow your body to relax just a little deeper.

Releasing your jaw,

Letting your shoulders drop,

Letting your arms and legs get heavy and melt further into comfort.

And just breathe.

PAUSE…

With a relaxed body and calm breath, let yourself think about what’s causing you stress right now.

It might be a specific person, event or circumstance.

Or it could be a combination of many things.

Just allow yourself to see it in your mind.

Now imagine that this stress, whatever it is, is transformed into a butterfly.

You see her fragile wings softly flapping up and down as she stands on your outstretched hand.

You look at her, this embodiment of your stress and anxiety,

And see her beauty. She her delicateness. See her purpose.

And as she perches on the tips of your fingers,

She flies away, allowing you to let the stress go.

PAUSE…

For the next few minutes, imagine each bit of stress you are feeling and each emotion along with it as a butterfly.

And as you identify each of them, watch as they softly perch on your hand and fly away.

Allowing you to let go of the stress, to let go of the anxiety. To let go of the heaviness.

Leaving yourself feeling light, calm and peaceful after each butterfly flies away.

Let it go.

PAUSE…

Let it go.

PAUSE…

There is nothing left for you to stress about.

All you have to do is let it go.

Namaste, Beautiful

Hello From Katie 💗: What I Learned in the Chaos Jul 01, 2024

Show notes

“Life is a moving, breathing thing. We have to be willing to constantly evolve. Perfection is constant transformation.” ~ Nia Peeples

Chaos. Oh, the chaos. It seems to sneak up on me, poking its head out through the holes of all the details of life that I tell myself I’ve managed, organized and controlled. Chaos rises like lava deep from the underbelly of what I think is stable ground. It oozes out, spreading its flaming, hot substance all over the landscape of my life. It burns everything in its path, leveling all growth, all life. Chaos.

Meditation: Let the Thoughts Pass as You Sink Into Sleep Jul 01, 2024

Show notes

Breathe…

And slow yourself down.

Let all those thoughts pass you by like clouds in the sky,

As you sink into deep sleep tonight.

Relax,

And find your breath.

Lean into its soft waves of air traveling through your body,

And feel it slow you down.

PAUSE…

Let your inbreath go deeper,

And your outbreath reach further.

In,

And out.

Relax your body.

Relax your mind.

Relax your soul.

LONG PAUSE…

The mind calls to you,

Filled with the details of things left undone,

Worries about what’s ahead,

And the flood of emotions that accompany them all.

She’s loud.

Dramatic.

And persistent.

PAUSE…

But your breath is more powerful.

She’s calming,

And soothing,

And connects you to your soul.

The voice whose whispers can drown out the noise of the mind.

PAUSE…

So breathe here tonight,

Deeply into the center of you,

And let your body melt fully into your bed.

PAUSE…

All those thoughts,

All those worries,

All those emotions,

They’re clouds in the sky above,

Far away,

Light,

Slowly floating by you.

PAUSE…

Be here,

And just observe.

Notice that some of the clouds are grey,

Heavy with moisture,

Threatening to rain.

PAUSE…

Some clouds are flashing with lightning,

Erratic, unpredictable,

And even scary.

PAUSE...

Some clouds are white and fluffy,

And some are thin streaks across the sky.

Just be here,

And notice them.

Watching them all roll by,

Far above you,

Out of reach,

And unable to touch you.

PAUSE…

You are safe here,

In the stillness of the night,

Far away from the thoughts in your mind,

Disconnected from their stories and emotions,

Free to sink into peaceful sleep.

PAUSE…

Let the thoughts pass,

As you sink into deep sleep.

PAUSE…

No matter what the clouds looks like,

No matter how scary or heavy they may seem,

Nothing can touch you here.

PAUSE…

So relax deeply,

As your mind quiets,

As your body softens,

And your soul embraces the stillness of the night.

Sweet Dreams, Beautiful.

Meditation: Freedom From Fear Jun 30, 2024

Show notes

As you breathe in and out,

let go of fear,

let go of resistance.

PAUSE…

Detach from chaos,

And come deep into yourself.

Connecting with what you truly want

PAUSE…

Love,

security,

support,

abundance.

PAUSE…

You are worthy of what you want,

of living your true calling,

of realizing your hopes and dreams.

PAUSE…

But inevitably,

Along your journey,

Fear creeps in.

PAUSE…

He promises safety,

And to diverts us to a gray path of smallness,

Solitude,

And lack.

PAUSE…

Breathe in deeply,

As your feet follow this path.

And inhale courage as you grab fear’s arm,

And free it from yours.

PAUSE…

You choose to love deeply,

To jump high,

To risk it all,

To shine bright.

PAUSE…

And when fear stands by your side again,

You thank him for reminding you,

That you chose love.

And you are free.

LONG PAUSE…

Namaste, Beautiful.

Meditation: Sleep Meditation for Anxiety Jun 29, 2024

Show notes

Let it all go…

As you settle into your bed.

Let it all go…

And clear your precious head.

PAUSE…

So many worries tug at you,

So many stresses pile up.

So many fears are rumbling,

So many thoughts interrupt.

PAUSE…

Soon your world feels small,

Your breathing falls shallow.

Your eyes begin to dart around,

And your face looks really sallow.

PAUSE…

So let this be your moment now,

To escape the prison of pain.

Allow yourself to just let go,

Anxiety will not reign.

Invite yourself to see the thoughts,

That spin around and crawl.

Take a breath here and you’ll see,

You are separate from them all.

PAUSE…

Breathe in deep to create more space,

‘Tween you and your thinking mind.

See if you can open real wide,

The space that’s been confined.

PAUSE…

Breathe in deep,

Breathe out slow,

Come into your body now.

Breathe in deep,

Breathe out slow,

Let go and just allow.

LONG PAUSE…

If you come into this moment now,

You’ll see with clarity.

That most of the worries that haunt you,

Don’t exist actually.

PAUSE…

They’re born of what if’s and how’s,

And holding on too tight,

To the future that you think you know,

You feel you must get right.

PAUSE…

Follow your breath into your soul,

And bring yourself right here.

Breathe deep into this moment,

Let the anxiety disappear.

PAUSE…

Let it all go…

And release all that’s here.

Let it all go…

It’ll all be okay, my dear.

LONG PAUSE…

Relax and let go.

Soften and release.

Surrender to flow,

And feel the loving peace.

LONG PAUSE…

Namaste, Beautiful

Meditation: Practicing Resilience Jun 28, 2024

Show notes

Resilience is a muscle.

The more it work it,

The stronger it gets.

The stronger it gets,

The more resilient you become.

When you see building resilience as a practice,

You’re able to recognize progress,

Instead of judging yourself for the hardships.

PAUSE…

You’re able to see that you recover faster,

Learn quicker,

And evolve easier,

Than your old self.

PAUSE…

You begin to understand that hardships will not stop.

That your ability to get back up better and faster,

Make those hardships easier.

PAUSE…

So be here,

With your resilience,

With the strength deep inside,

That floods your body and mind.

PAUSE…

You can let go of anxiety and fear,

Knowing that you are resilient,

And can get through anything.

Meditation: Relax and Let Go Jun 26, 2024

Show notes

Whether we’re feeling stressed, unsettled or simply have a desire to start fresh, practicing relaxing and letting go can help us to feel more clear and peaceful.

So allow yourself to settle,

Gently closing your eyes,

Softening your face,

And dropping your shoulders.

PAUSE…

Feel your arms and legs get heavier.

Feel your stomach soften,

And your whole body relax from head to toe.

And breathe…

PAUSE…

Imagine every breath in cleanses you,

And opens up more space inside.

PAUSE…

Imagine every breath out calms you,

And melts you deeper into comfort.

LONG PAUSE…

Like leaves barely hanging onto the tree,

Imagine tiny pieces of you breaking off,

And falling into the hands of the wind.

The thousands of thoughts,

Emotions,

Desires,

And details,

All gently breaking away from you,

And slowly dancing in the wind.

PAUSE…

Let them go.

Breathe them out,

And let them go.

PAUSE…

When you return inside,

Only silence remains.

A space of clarity,

Freedom,

And calm.

Namaste, Beautiful
