Connecting to your higher alignment meditation === Cara: [00:00:00] this meditation can be a visualization of your perfect day. Or it can be a higher self perspective. Or it can be a mix of both. Whatever feels best for you. We're going to think about this version. You strive to be. That fulfills your everyday experience. I did a meditation a few years ago. And I saw my life very different than what my current reality was. It wasn't until a few months later that I realized I was living this vision, I previously had. I didn't know it was possible. So I do ask you to be open to what comes through. Even though it might not seem possible at the moment. I recommend this meditation first thing in the morning, or right before bed. But there's no wrong way to do it. Let's get started. Intro for meditation: Welcome to floductivity I'm your host, Cara Dempsey. And today I'll be walking you through a meditation. I encourage you to take this practice. However, it feels best for you. It can be used while walking. Sitting. Lying down or even doing your daily tests. I don't recommend meditation while driving or using machinery. [00:01:00] I do encourage you to feel in your body whenever you're in a safe place to do so. If this is your first time. Welcome. And if you've been here for a bit, thank you for coming back. Enjoy today's meditation. Cara: Today, we're going to use a technique that has helped me follow the feelings of the life I dream of. This meditation is going to connect your mind to the feelings you want to have in your life. Remember that meditation takes practice. So if you don't see or feel anything this time, just keep practicing. I want you to visualize what your perfect normal day looks like. But it also wants you. To look for the future version of yourself who experiences this day. When I have connected with this future vision of myself. She shows me the micro habits I need to implement. To have this vision come forth. We don't magically become this person. We take inspired action every day to connect with this vision. I find this a powerful practice and I can't wait to get started. Find a comfortable seat. That can allow you to get grounded. If you're [00:02:00] walking, then be mindful of every step you take to connect with the earth below. Take three rounds of deep breaths. Allow the expectation of the day to release into the ground. Allow your mind to settle and bring awareness into the body. Try not to control your idea of your perfect day. But allow your intuition to come forth so that the visions you didn't know existed, come through. Take a deep breath in. And, uh, Your eyes are closed and you begin to wake up. Does the sunlight filter through the window? To wake you. [00:03:00] Cara: Does the gentle music. From your alarm, wake you. How do you wake up in a way that feels nourishing? What do you do next? Is it a meditation? Is it reading in your favorite book? Is it taking a walk in nature? With your favorite beverage in hand? Or is it moving your body? How do you nourish your body before starting your day? Take a deep breath in. And out. What is the next thing you do before starting your Workday? Is it having [00:04:00] a nourishing breakfast? Integrating healthy habits in the morning, we'll help support you throughout the day. So what habits. Do you need to implement? That will make you feel good for the rest of your day. I'll take a moment to think about what you're doing in your daily work day. Is it filling your soul? It's okay. If not. Just think about integrating soul filling activities. In your week. That can keep your spirits. Creativity. And drive to come shining through. When we hustle in our lives without connection to our soul's desires. It can lead right to burnout. Schedule these activities that light you up [00:05:00] every single week. And be mindful of having something. In your everyday life. That brings you joy. Even if it's only for a few minutes. Take a deep breath in. And out. As you navigate through your Workday. Are you taking breaks to check in with your body? Are you leaving time to move your body? Are you taking a moment to step outside and get fresh air? To reinvigorate your senses. Are you leaving time for connection? With those who drive you to do better. Are you taking time throughout the day? To assess your needs. In your mind, body connection. To make sure you're not [00:06:00] hustling past a point of depletion. Take a deep breath in. And out. As you walked through this day. See if your future self comes to show you the way. What are they wearing? What are they doing? How are they talking? Who are they spending their time with? What activities are filling their soul. Where are they at? What music do they listen to? [00:07:00] What foods do they eat? To feel satisfied and nourished. Take a few moments to let any visions come through. Take a deep breath in. And out. What do they do to wrap up and close out the Workday? What do they do to enjoy the presence of now? Is it sitting outside and giving gratitude. Is it walking in nature? Is it spending time with their loved ones? [00:08:00] Do they connect with their creativity? By painting. Or dancing or singing. What are their nightly habits to ensure their sleep is restful. Do they leave their phone in another room when APM hits? So they can. Disconnect from the virtual world. Do they clear the energy? That has attached to them from their day. Do they journal to process their emotions and situations from the day? Do they give gratitude? For their experience. Do they meditate to disconnect from the constant [00:09:00] stimulation of the day? I want you to visualize your head, hitting the pillow. Do you feel fulfilled? It's okay. If not. Just allow the visions from that day to settle in. Take note of anything. You want to implement in your current reality? Take a deep breath in. And out. Bring your awareness back to the current moment. How did that make you feel? I encourage you to journal or take notes on the activities or feelings that you had in this meditation. If any habits feel nourishing to you, make a plan to implement it into your daily or weekly routine. Taking these steps and bringing these micro [00:10:00] habits into your daily life. Little by little. We'll bring you closer to this vision. Remember that your dream life is closer than you think. If every time you make a choice to replace a negative habit. With a nourishing and positive habit. You are powerful. My friend, when you put your mind. Body and soul as a priority. Thank you for joining me in this meditation. We'll chat soon.
