Innate wisdom meditation
Find a quiet place where you won’t be disturbed. Sit in a comfortable position, either on the floor or in a chair. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths.
As you breathe in, say to yourself, “I am open to receiving wisdom.” As you breathe out, say to yourself, “I am letting go of all that no longer serves me.”
Continue to breathe in and out, repeating these phrases. Notice any thoughts or feelings that come up. You can simply observe them without judgment.
When you are ready, bring your awareness to your heart. Imagine that your heart is a wise and compassionate being. Ask your heart to share its wisdom with you.
Listen to your heart without judgment. You may receive insights, images, or feelings. You may also receive no specific message at all. That’s okay.
When you are ready, open your eyes and come back to the present moment. Take a few moments to reflect on your experience.
Here are some additional tips for this meditation:
- If you find your mind wandering, gently bring it back to the present moment.
- If you feel any resistance, simply observe it without judgment.
- Be patient with yourself. This is a practice, and it takes time to develop.
