Hey guys, it’s Bex here and I am so excited to be back for another video in my series,
You Have 4 Minutes for Meditation.
I’ve been gone for a while. I took a break at the end of my pregnancy. But Baby Borucki
is here and I’m so in love with her. You can see pictures of her on Instagram
and on my Facebook page. And today, I’m going to be doing a meditation that comes
kind of by request from all of you. I have about 30 plus great meditation requests in
the queue that I am so anxious to make for all of you guys.
But today, I wanted to combine some of the subjects into one big subject that all of
us can relate to, stress. We are going to be doing a recline, meaning lying down in
meditation for stress so you will be able to relax and meditate that stress away. I
know I’ve been dealing with some of it myself, being a new mom and writing a book and getting
back to work. And I know all of you guys have lots of stuff going on in your life. So, let’s
get started.
Begin your meditation by placing yourself in a comfortable position. Make sure that
all parts of your body are supported. Lie back and begin to imagine your body melting
into the floor or the mat or your mattress. Scan your body from the top of your head down
to your toes and as the scan passes each part of your body, relax the muscles and melt into
the surface that you’re lying on.
Your head, shoulders, torso, everything is melting, hips, thighs, knees, calves, and
down through your feet. Pay attention to what your breath is doing. Focus on your inhales
and exhales. Any time as you relax into this meditation, your breath will change on its
own.
There will be sounds that come up in this video and in your own environment. You don’t
have to tune them out completely. Just allow them as part of the space that you’re in
right now. As you go deeper into meditation, they will disappear.
Allow yourself to be part of your environment, the temperature, the sounds all are here to
serve you in this meditation. Nothing is here to distract you or prevent you from feeling
good. Everything in this moment is in service to you and your relaxation. Continue to pay
attention to your inhales and exhales, just observing them without judgment, allowing
them to just be. This is the theme for today’s meditation, non-judgment, observation, and
allowing.
Stress is something that can affect us all. It doesn’t make us good or bad, effective
or ineffective. We’ve all fallen victim to stress and stressors. Let us look at stressful
situations in a different way, in a way that serves us and helps us to grow.
Today, I want you to allow all situations, stressful and non-stressful to come into your
life. And also, allow yourself to let go of the things that don’t serve you. When we
place walls up around us to block the things that are stressful, we can also block the
things that are good for us. So today, we will allow with non-judgment and let go easily
of the things that don’t serve us.
Now, let me offer you today’s mantras. I observe all situations with non-judgment.
What is is what is. I allow all situations to come in. I allow all information to come
in. And I let go of what doesn’t serve me. I observe all situations with non-judgment.
I allow all to come in and I let go of what doesn’t serve me.
Imagine your body as a vessel that things just pass through. It’s not a container
for holding. It’s a portal where all energy not good, not bad, just energy flowing through
you back and forth freely like the tides, easy like the wind. Maybe holding on for a
moment to something that feels good and then letting it go.
The holding on of what feels good allows us to feel happiness, relieves us of stress,
but letting everything go, the so-called good and the bad allows us to be stress-free. We’re
not holding on to anything after a while.
I observe all situations with non-judgment. I allow all to come in. I release all that
doesn’t serve me. Now, observe how deep and long your inhales and exhales are, how
easy they flow from one to another, how they fill up your chest and your belly. How the
inhales feels so wonderful and warm. How the exhales allow your body to melt into the floor
or your mat or your mattress. All the heaviness that you’re carrying before the meditation
has been released. Your body is so soft and comfortable. Nothing is rigid or stiff.
One more inhale to open your eyes if you wish.
And that’s all there is to it. It is easy to meditate. It is that easy to relieve stress
in just a few minutes a day. If you have any meditation request for me, please leave them
in the comment below or you can find me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. I love hearing
from you guys every single day. And until next time, stay blessed in. I love you guys.
