Enlighten

“Enlightenment… a daily practice of being a source of light for oneself and others at any given moment.”

– Enlightened Bodies by Nirmal Lumpkin & Japa Kaur Khalsa

What a wonderful obtainable definition of enlightenment! The practice of living as a source of light is inclusive. Anyone can do this with awareness. It’s not about hurdles or climbing mountains or standing on your head — though, those things may shake up the external environment for you to consider your internal world differently. Living with present moment awareness that you are a light in this world, is enough. You, dear one, are more than enough.

A guided exercise with voice and supportive instrumentation to assist in anchoring light within your being:

Pebble Meditation

This is a guided breathing awareness meditation with pebble visualization for relaxation and insight. You can choose any intention or focus area ahead of listening to the recording. If you’re at a loss for what that may look like, you could consider ideas such as “I intend to see clearly my next steps.”, ”I intend to live with more joy.”, “I intend to release blocks around my self expression.”, or perhaps “I intend to connect authentically with others.” These are starting points, but feel free to move with any intention or theme. What you choose ahead will guide you best as you know you need.

For the exercise, gather paper and pen. Write your intention out on the paper and speak it aloud or in your head three times. Prepare yourself to sit comfortably in a chair, keep the paper and pen close by to make notes after listening to the recording. Start the recording and close your eyes. ✨🙏🏼✨

(This recording has sounds not too far off in the background. With the spirit of mindful awareness, if you find yourself distracted by the background sounds, let that be, and gently guide yourself to focus on the sound of my voice. If you find your mind wandering, practice in the same way, with gentle guidance back to the voice.)
