    Our former selves are ghosts to us,

    Still present but not really.

    Though it may seem like they’re past their use,

    In truth, their memory is a blessing.


    PAUSE…

    Close your eyes and see who’s there,

    Which versions of you still linger.

    Ask yourself where you all stand,

    If there’s anything you still wonder.


    PAUSE…

    Though we want to believe we shed those selves,

    When new understanding settles in,

    We actually move farther if we’re willing to embrace

    The messy past hiding within us.


    PAUSE…

    It’s not that we have to wallow there,

    Or relive what we’d rather not.

    But whatever they are, we are as well,

    And their scars have stories to tell.


    PAUSE…
     
    If we don’t listen when they speak,

    Our present life just gets harder.

    For they know better than anyone else,

    What it takes to make us smarter.


    LONG PAUSE…

    Picture a younger version of you, hold yourself close as you breathe in gently.

    Prepare to listen as you speak to you, breathing out to make space in your body.


    PAUSE…

    What did she need that she didn’t find?

    What lessons did she teach you?

    Have you found what ‘that’ you lacked,

    Or are you still searching for answers?


    PAUSE…

    It may be daunting to look back this way,

    To see how much work remains.

    But taking stock reveals successes too,

    Showing you where you shine.


    PAUSE…

    Think of these selves like rings of tree,

    Their number growing as you age.

    And like those rings, they’re safely surrounded,

    By the growth you’ve toiled to achieve.


    PAUSE…

    They still exist like shadow selves,

    Appearing when circumstances demand it.

    But like the rings in the tree, or ghosts in the attic,

    They’re only glimmers of what used to be.


    LONG PAUSE…

    Inhale and accept the process, the ever changing shifts.

    Exhale and accept the necessity of keeping watch as you advance.


    PAUSE…

    At some point, you will all be friends,

    You’ll coexist gratefully.

    For they are pleased that you battle on,

    With the tools they crafted for you.


    PAUSE…

    The past is never quite what we think.

    Our memories let us down.

    But a sister-you never forgets a thing,

    And she’s there to cheer you on.


    PAUSE…

    So look more fondly on your past.

    Don’t fear what you have been.

    We all spend time in foolish places,

    Until we figure out where we belong.


    PAUSE…

    Even if you haven’t found that place, 

    The one that’s meant for you.

    Your early selves hold all the clues,

    And they believe in what you can do.


    LONG PAUSE…

    Breathe in as you take your ghosts by the hand, accepting what they offer.

    Breathe out and settle into their company, feeling more whole when you’re together.

     

    Namaste, Beautiful

    Breathe. Just breathe.
    And let your body,
    unfold in peace
    with each breath.

    LONG PAUSE

    Now turn inward,
    and take a moment
    to express gratitude
    for all that is in your life.

    LONG PAUSE

    And while relaxing,
    let your heart and mind
    focus on you.
    This time is all about you.

    LONG PAUSE

    Imagine now, a tiny light
    opening in your center.
    The light is flowing with colors:
    White, yellow, orange, and red.

    PAUSE

    And, this light seems to form
    in an area of your body 
    that feels delicate,
    an area where you’ve 
    carried pain or hurt.

    PAUSE

    Yet, as the light shines,
    it absorbs the hurt,
    taking away the sting
    of the feeling.

    PAUSE

    The light glows,
    and after a moment,
    you understand that the light
    is really a tiny flame,
    a flame of energy.

    PAUSE

    The flame dances from side-to-side,
    and slowly begins to grow,
    giving off a feeling of strength,
    of power rising from the inside.

    PAUSE

    As it touches hurt, pain or grief,
    it swallows the feelings,
    leaving ashes that
    simply float away.
    It replaces them
    with strength.

    PAUSE

    Soon the energy flame
    has danced and grown
    all through your core,
    radiating pure strength.

    PAUSE

    As it grows, 
    there may be a part of you 
    that is hesitant–
    a part of you questions
    just how strong you are.

    PAUSE

    The flame invites you
    to embrace all of you.
    It whispers within that
    you have incredible strength–
    strength beyond your imagination.

    PAUSE

    And as the flame shines,
    it gives off more power.
    You notice that its edges
    begin to change,
    to fan out
    in different directions.

    PAUSE

    The flame transforms slowly
    until you notice what appears
    to be wings opening on each side
    and the shape of a head. 

    PAUSE

    After a moment,
    the shape evolves
    into a bird, a Phoenix,
    the bird of fire and power.

    PAUSE

    Now, imagine that this 
    beautiful bird of fire,
    this bird of strength and energy
    enfolds all of you 
    in its wings.

    PAUSE

    Then, slowly,
    you and the phoenix rise,
    lifting above the house
    into the night sky.

    PAUSE

    The air is cool,
    and you feel completely comfortable
    with this powerful energy
    carrying you higher.

    PAUSE

    Against the night sky,
    the fiery phoenix shines
    like a beacon of hope for you,
    glowing brighter
    than the moon and stars.

    PAUSE

    Then the phoenix pauses,
    and opens its wings.
    And as it does,
    you realize your arms
    are the fiery wings.
    You and the phoenix 
    are one.

    PAUSE

    Suspended against 
    backdrop of the night sky,
    you feel the blaze of energy, 
    the strength and passion
    of the phoenix
    as it courses through you,
    empowering you.

    PAUSE

    And with this bold, new energy,
    You, the phoenix, 
    glide back to your room,
    to a welcome bed.

    PAUSE

    As you land,
    the wings of fire
    fold inward,
    ready for you to 
    call on them again,
    at any time.

    PAUSE

    You understand that
    you are a phoenix,
    with great strength and power,
    and you can 
    rise from the ashes
    again and again.

    Nothing keeps you down.


    NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL

    The shadows have come out to play,

    The anxieties are rising within.

    Your stomach churns,

    Your head spins,

    Every part of you is uncomfortable.

    PAUSE…

    It all feels so real,

    But take a deep breath…

    And you’ll see.

    That all this emotional discomfort.

    All this worry and anxiety and fear,

    Exists in the past and in the future.

    So breathe in deeply,

    And allow your breath to pull you here,

    Into the present,

    Far away from all of it. 

    PAUSE…

    Your regrets, 

    Shame,

    Or sadness,

    All your emotions are real. 

    But the emotions exist,

    For things that happened in the past. 

    PAUSE…

    So imagine yourself breathing them out,

    With every exhale.

    Slowly releasing their hold on your heart,

    And on your mind. 

    LONG PAUSE…

    All your worries,

    Anxieties, 

    And fears,

    All your emotions are real. 

    But the emotions exist,

    For things you foresee for the future.

    PAUSE…

    So imagine yourself breathing them out,

    With every exhale,

    Slowly releasing their hold on your heart,

    And on your mind. 

    LONG PAUSE…

    This moment,

    Right now,

    Is all you have.

    Is all there is. 

    PAUSE…

    So ease your emotional discomfort,

    By choosing to live in the present.

    Pulling yourself deeper here,

    With every single life-giving breath.

    LONG PAUSE…

    Let go of control,

    Let go of the emotions. 

    This moment right here is what you have.

    PAUSE…

    So open yourself up,

    With all of your imperfections,

    With all of your humanness,

    And pray for grace,

    Pray for peace,

    Pray for love.

    PAUSE…

    Feel them wash over you,

    Filling your beautiful soul,

    And covering you in a soft, warm blanket. 

    PAUSE…

    Let your heart and mind be soothed,

    Let your body be relaxed.

    And be here.

    Separate from your thoughts.

    Separate from your fears.

    Humming with the warm glow of love covering you.

    PAUSE…

    You deserve grace.

    You deserve love.

    PAUSE…

    So rest your soul, sweet one,

    And know the discomfort in you has dissolved,

    And left you here, 

    Raw and real,

    And covered in love and faith.

    Sweet Dreams, Beautiful.

    The night closes around you
    like a fluffy blanket,
    cozying up to you,
    and letting the softness
    of sleep unfold in you.

    LONG PAUSE

    Your breathing naturally slows,
    and your body sinks
    gently into the folds 
    of your bed.

    LONG PAUSE

    You keep breathing,
    becoming aware of your breath,
    and of the lightness
    of your body.
    It feels delicious.

    LONG PAUSE

    As you continue breathing slowly, comfortably,
    imagine yourself 
    in a warm shower
    with the beads of water
    streaming down your back.

    PAUSE

    The watery massage relaxes you,
    and lets your mind,
    as well as your muscles,
    ease up naturally.

    PAUSE

    You put your head 
    in the shower stream,
    and let the warm water droplets
    massage your scalp and neck.

    PAUSE

    After a few moments
    of relaxing in the steamy water,
    a vision appears.
    The steam of the shower
    transforms into mist of a forest.

    PAUSE

    You follow the mist
    in your vision,
    and it leads 
    you to the edge
    of a lake.

    PAUSE

    Slowly, you tip your toe
    into the lake.
    The magical waters
    send healing ripples of energy
    Through you. 

    PAUSE

    You descend into the lake,
    letting your body 
    be enveloped in healing.

    PAUSE

    Each drop of water that 
    touches you,
    renews you,
    restores your energy.

    PAUSE

    You gently roll onto your back,
    floating comfortably in the water.
    Your eyes scan the lush green forest
    circling the lake.
    You smile at the
    hidden gem of nature 
    that has revealed itself to you.

    PAUSE

    Gazing up at the
    powdery blue sky,
    you see dozens of 
    clouds like painted streams
    across a canvas.

    PAUSE

    Colorful birds fly in and out
    of the forest,
    chirping in joy and then soaring
    into the wispy clouds above.

    PAUSE

    A pink and green fish jumps,
    plopping into the water
    and sending bubbles
    to the surface 
    like secret smoke signals.

    PAUSE
     
    In the distance,
    a mother deer and her fawn
    quietly lap up the water
    from the lake,
    then scamper off.

    PAUSE

    While floating on your back,
    you notice the sunlight
    filtering through the trees,
    each thread of light
    casting shadows 
    of leaves and trees.

    PAUSE

    While gazing at the sunlight,
    two brown squirrels
    chase each other in the trees,
    causing the sunlight
    to shimmy and shake
    as it reflects.

    PAUSE

    Slowly, you paddle 
    to the side of the lake
    where a large towel
    magically opens,
    waiting to embrace you.

    PAUSE

    The cushy towel folds around you,
    gently drying you and warming you,
    and you take moment 
    to thank the lake and the forest
    for all their beauty.

    PAUSE

    You snuggle deep in the towel
    And close your eyes.
    When you open them again,
    you are home in your own bathroom
    wrapped in a towel.

    PAUSE

    And though your time 
    at the forest lake has ended,
    the peace and beauty it brought
    rests comfortably inside you
    now and always.


    NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL

pain in the #%€ ,

The sessions are to short

I really like this podcast. Her voice is very soothing at just the right amount of pauses as well as background music and it does help me relax but I find the sessions way to short especially because I’d like my mind to pick up the positive messages subconsciously.

Nezxyz ,

Soothing

I listen almost every night. I love the different themes and always find a perfect fit to end my day. Thanks!

mommabear xoxo ,

LOVE ❤️ LOVE ❤️

Dear Katie,
I never leave reviews until I came upon this podcast. It has weathered me through a lot of storms good and bad. So I wanted to share with everyone my experience, strength & hope. Listening at night guiding me to my most inner self. Sometimes falling asleep. From never meditating to at least once a day. I have been listening for about gosh I don’t know months and months. Anyhow thank you so much 😊
