The bowl of light meditation

This meditation is inspired by Hawaiian healing practices. Go and watch the real sunset if you can. Let your eyes linger softly at the horizon, slightly below the sun. Or watch a photo for a while. Connect with the sun.

Take a deep breath.

Visualize the sun entering your solar plexus. Let the light expand inside of you.

Breathe in the light.

Think of any harsh words or actions anyone has done to you lately. See them as little rocks that you can pick out of your own bowl of light.

Pick up the imaginary rock symbolizing a negative interaction. Think of the person, and incident, and inhale. Say to yourself:

I release you. I let go. I forgive you. I’m free.

Exhale.

Do this as many times as you need. Return to your center and feel your bowl of light fill up.

Inhale.

Feel your peace and power return to you.

Exhale.

Bow in gratitude and humility. Thank you!
