Transcripts

Speaker:

Hi, and welcome to day one of the conscious parenting challenge.

Speaker:

I'm really glad you are here with me.

Speaker:

Today what we are going to do is we will look at ourselves and just give us tools

Speaker:

to become more calmer and more relaxed.

Speaker:

No matter how life is around us, we will learn how to feel a lot more centered,

Speaker:

a lot more grounded with ourselves.

Speaker:

So my belief is that we create outside for us how we are inside ourselves.

Speaker:

So I will usually notice that if I'm feeling edgy, Then the world around me

Speaker:

starts happening or behaving that way.

Speaker:

But sometimes, even if the world's like that, even if I'm getting some

Speaker:

external triggers and I can still hold my space, as in I can still feel calm

Speaker:

and relaxed and safe, then everything just goes by, especially the kids.

Speaker:

They're so good at matching your energy, that if you can be calm when your kids

Speaker:

are not able to hold that for themselves, then they'll just match that eventually,

Speaker:

and they can feel a lot more relaxed.

Speaker:

They can be a lot more open about how they're feeling, and then

Speaker:

you can help them as a parent.

Speaker:

So let's get started to it.

Speaker:

So when you can, just go ahead and find yourself a nice place

Speaker:

where you can sit down, keep yourself ten minutes, and relax.

Speaker:

Now these meditations, they are playful, they are relaxing.

Speaker:

Really meant to be as a three year old child.

Speaker:

So what I mean by three year old child is three year old, a child

Speaker:

version of you would be the smart person that you are, would be as

Speaker:

aware, would be as knowledgeable, as great and as awesome as you are.

Speaker:

But three year old children, they're just curious, they are more adventurous,

Speaker:

they want to play with things, and they don't judge themselves so much.

Speaker:

They don't go Oh, now I hit myself here.

Speaker:

Or I was meant to color between the lines and so on.

Speaker:

They don't really judge themselves like that.

Speaker:

So just have that fun with yourself.

Speaker:

Use these ten minutes to just be playful, just enjoy yourself.

Speaker:

Alright, so you were sitting in a chair

Speaker:

and you're imagining yourself playing in this meditation as a three year old.

Speaker:

And now with that three year old version of you, just notice where

Speaker:

your feet are, how you're sitting.

Speaker:

And if you're sitting, that's okay.

Speaker:

You could also do this meditation in any other position that you like.

Speaker:

It's absolutely okay.

Speaker:

Just imagine where your feet are and then just go ahead and say hello to Gaia.

Speaker:

Gaia is Earth.

Speaker:

Gaia is the planet where we all live.

Speaker:

Gaia is our mother.

Speaker:

When we were born, we needed our parents to give us a human body.

Speaker:

We also needed Gaia to give us space on earth, physical space.

Speaker:

So she is our mother and you can just go ahead and say hello to

Speaker:

her and connect with her, connect with the center of the earth.

Speaker:

That is her heart space, that is where she holds tremendous amount of love.

Speaker:

And just as you do that, you can perhaps imagine that she's got a lovely

Speaker:

embrace, a beautiful hug for you.

Speaker:

Just feel that, just imagine that coming and surrounding you.

Speaker:

So right when you're sitting, and this is where we're going

Speaker:

to do another imagination.

Speaker:

We will imagine our bodies as seven layers.

Speaker:

So you know how we have seven chakras in the body, seven major chakras?

Speaker:

We're going to imagine all of them as seven layers or seven stories in a house.

Speaker:

So for future reference, if I'm talking about a house in

Speaker:

your body, that's what I mean.

Speaker:

Just imagine you are at the first layer, and you are at the second layer.

Speaker:

of your body.

Speaker:

You're in the first layer of your house and this is where

Speaker:

Gaia is connected to you.

Speaker:

She's got nice gravitational pull, so you can just let her take anything that

Speaker:

you feel is emotionally exhausting you.

Speaker:

Anything that you feel is troubling you, you can just give her permission

Speaker:

that she can take away all of that.

Speaker:

Because she's got gravitational pull and she's willing to give you that space.

Speaker:

Then you can look at your first and you can see how it feels.

Speaker:

If you feel like just closing the chakra, if you feel like just closing that

Speaker:

door a little bit because we'll walk up in this meditation and come to the

Speaker:

top stories, you can do that as well.

Speaker:

Just go ahead, close the door.

Speaker:

to whatever level you feel like.

Speaker:

And now come up.

Speaker:

Now we are in our second story.

Speaker:

Second story is almost around your belly button.

Speaker:

So again, you can just imagine Gaia connected here.

Speaker:

And if you're feeling any pain in your body, if you are feeling anything,

Speaker:

or even if you don't feel anything, you can just give up permission and,

Speaker:

Hey, You have total permission today and wherever I'm not feeling great

Speaker:

just take it away from my space.

Speaker:

Great, good job.

Speaker:

Close the door as much as you want because we come and sit up in our top stories.

Speaker:

Now go to your third and

Speaker:

I won't give you all the locations but again close the door as much as you want.

Speaker:

Just keep climbing up.

Speaker:

Now you're going to your fourth.

Speaker:

4th is your heart space, this is your affinity, so just close the door here,

Speaker:

come up to your 5th, that's your throat.

Speaker:

Again, close the door, and then come up to the 6th, that's the center of

Speaker:

your head, that's your 6th layer.

Speaker:

Don't worry if you don't understand all of these layers fully, you don't

Speaker:

understand where they are, it's okay, the meditation still works.

Speaker:

And you're doing a wonderful job as a three year old child.

Speaker:

The beauty with all of this is that you are doing a lot as a three year old kid.

Speaker:

There's a lot of magic that you can create as a three year old.

Speaker:

So keep going with it.

Speaker:

And now when you are in your sixth, imagine if your body is really a house.

Speaker:

Just imagine how the sixth feels.

Speaker:

This is like the top.

Speaker:

This is from where you can see everything around you.

Speaker:

You're not as caught up in all the drama that happens downstairs.

Speaker:

So you're not caught up in all the weeds that are going

Speaker:

around your house, for example.

Speaker:

You can just sit up in the balcony and see from your six.

Speaker:

So great, good job.

Speaker:

And this is where you have your three year old mini super version.

Speaker:

And you can be in your seventh as well if you want.

Speaker:

That's where you have the ultimate view, like you're out looking from the sky.

Speaker:

But just look up from here.

Speaker:

And right now in this seat in the sixth and in the seventh, in the center of

Speaker:

your head, you are commanding your body.

Speaker:

From here, you can give her a command, or you can ask, you can

Speaker:

request the Earth, and you can just ask her to really speed up whatever

Speaker:

she is taking away from your space.

Speaker:

You know how we have vacuum cleaners in our house, and they have a speed setting,

Speaker:

so you have 1, which might be very slow, you might have 5, which is super

Speaker:

suction, very high, you So it's like that.

Speaker:

And from here, you can just adjust that dial with Mother Earth.

Speaker:

And you can just tell her that, Hey, whatever's not working for me, whatever

Speaker:

problems I'm dealing with, just take them away and just let the Earth be.

Speaker:

Take the problems away.

Speaker:

You can just adjust your dial to wherever you want it to be.

Speaker:

You can have it at one, you can have it at five.

Speaker:

You could have it at somewhere in between, whatever suits you, and just

Speaker:

sit in your six, sit in your throne here at the center of the head.

Speaker:

And just enjoy being here, the calmness, the quietness of your head,

Speaker:

great job and see that's how you've really quietened and calm your space.

Speaker:

Now up above you, just like the earth has a sun, you can imagine a sun

Speaker:

as well and you can imagine the sun bringing in beautiful gold energy.

Speaker:

The sun brings in this energy, brings a nice beautiful gold energy, this is

Speaker:

your vibration that is coming to you, your highest vibration and it fills you

Speaker:

with joy, it fills you with love and definitely fills you with the vibrations

Speaker:

that you're doing very well as a parent.

Speaker:

Just let that come into you.

Speaker:

that you're doing really well, that you're an awesome person.

Speaker:

So the earth takes your pain away and the sun brings in

Speaker:

your highest vibration.

Speaker:

The sun brings in the fact, the vibration, that you are an awesome parent.

Speaker:

Great job.

Speaker:

I'll see you tomorrow.

Speaker:

Stay tuned in.

Speaker:

Lots and lots of love.
