Hello, Love: A Meditation

Notice now what you feel in your body.
"Hello, love." Say hello to your body.

The world would like to contribute to you. Where can you open to receive?

Imagine the earth below. "Hello, love."
What do you notice?

Today this was my meditation: I said "hello" energetically to different beings, people, experiences, parts of nature, aspects of my life, using the simple phrase, "hello, love" as I brought them to mind. Each time I said hello, I experienced a different sensation or awareness in my body:

• warmth in the heart
• vertical lengthening of the torso
• backward movement from the spine
• horizontal expansion at the chest
• alertness in the head
• spreading of the seat
• stillness

Everything, every place, everyone you can imagine has something available to you - something you can receive, some energy you can experience in your body and mind, if you are open to it.

It may be an energy you want to cultivate, such as stillness, a sense of grounding, or warmth in the heart. It may simply be information - you can receive an awareness of how something or someone is showing up right now. It's ok to receive something and let it go. It's ok to receive some energy or awareness and ask, "how can I create more of this feeling in my life?" It's ok to receive the answer to this question over time, in the process of life.

What are you open to receive today? Can you receive from yourself? Say to yourself, "hello, love," and notice what happens.

This is a practice of surrendering, allowing, listening, and receiving. It may be helpful to listen to a guided meditation to relax the mind and body before sensing in to the energetic qualities of the world. It may be helpful to first move the body, vocalize, sing, etc - anything to loosen up tension in your body or mind, and to drop in to a receptive, relaxed, resourced state to begin with. What helps you feel grounded, centered, present and aware?
