In the lifting of your gaze
In the lengthening of your body
In the stilling of your mind
In the deepening of your very next breath
So may new day be born
So may you begin again

Each time you open the door to new possibility,
will that possibility become more a part of your life,
softening the edges of what was
to create new pathways upon which you might step.

To grow this opening into what can be
and to hold it open for longer and longer moments –
is this all you need do …
simply creating space.

And then to stand in that space,
experiencing the subtle shifts that lift you beyond patterns known
to create new, living patterns of connection.

Trust your inner guidance, that which is steadily, softly imparted from a place-unknown, remaining constant throughout the seasons of ever-changing emotion.

Come dwell within the shelter it offers, as if standing beneath a great, ancient tree, tall in stature and roots deep in the earth, as you lean into the body of its knowing.

Come back then, again and again to the counsel within, ever quietly there, always open to your heart’s enquiry.

In this which is with you always …

Magic is only a doorway away
and the doorway lies within.

It takes but a breath
a moment
a choice
a decision to reach beyond the present state and seek more
to connect with a world much vaster than the one we usually inhabit.

Open to a new world of possibilities, in this moment
right now.

Everything you need is already in your keeping, woven as golden thread throughout your being, planted like humble seedlings awaiting the majesty of their unfolding.

So may you step, longing-not for what you feel is lacking, but actively making space for what is hidden to rise and be revealed.

For is it in the wonder of your connection and coming back to its living truth, this sacred return, the ship upon which you sail into new waters, that you come to experience, over and over, the inner jewels that lie awaiting discovery.

Listen …
Just listen

Allow faraway sounds to be heard as you expand your awareness outward, as far as it can go.

Allow sounds close by to be heard – inside this room, your own breathing, as you return to your immediate space.

Now allow for all sounds, near and far, to exist in a place of perfect stillness, created by your conscious awareness.

And just be …
Simply be
Existing in the moment-now
Allowing it to hold you
in peace.

As you rise and fall in the ocean of life, as you navigate many changing currents, experiencing both flow and chaos, may you return always to balance, the place where you may be renewed.

For here, where the taking of a conscious breath ushers you to calmer waters, are you embraced by an inner order, now able to see and sense beyond the apparent, this expansion of awareness a guiding star.

So as you realise you have forgotten who you are, remembering once more with a growing sweetness in your heart, can you step anew, the etheric wings of your higher expression beginning to unfurl, lifting you into the beautiful colours of your awakened self.

In this joy of lifting …

Releasing all, I step into the moment-now
releasing again, into the next
and again
and again
until I arrive in a place where all is still
where the need to hold on to anything is absent
as thoughts and feelings float by
I am held safely in the vast expanse of the universe …
carried by the stars
lit by the sun
blessed by the earth.

In this place where all is welcome and worlds can meet
may you be forever-held.

Breathing in … and beginning again
Breathing in … and awakening
Breathing in … and letting go what was

Breathe in and remember
that you can always return, always be held …
always and forever know
that no matter what is happening
there waits an opening to rise,
to let go and live once more
within the living heart of the cosmic wish
that first gave you life.

In the waiting and unfolding, the gradual surrender to what is timeless
In the caress of light that stirs the child of new day, seeing it rise from an embrace of stillness
In the space born when defences soften, allowing new consciousness to unfurl as a flower to the sun
In the wonder of beginning again from a place unknown, where wisdom from ages past is felt as a living presence
In the wish that lies hidden in the fortress of history, rising to once more kiss the story of your life …

So is upon you a new way, a new awakening, a new opening to begin again in grace … beautiful, simple grace.
