Meditation: Arriving to Your Practice
Meditation: Sit comfortably and make a conscious choice to deepen your breath and arrive to your practice. We are here to honor the darkness. With your eyes closed, take this opportunity to observe your internal landscape. Connect to your emotional and intuitive body and use your inner awareness to probe the landscape that is inside you.
Imagine that you are at a banquet and you are the host. All the guests are the beings and feelings that currently reside in your internal landscape. Invite them to sit at a long table in your mind. If you can, imagine that you are naming each guest.
May this practice be a feast of celebration for all those who are sitting at the table this evening.
