- 27:01Speaker 1: what key learnings, insights, messages, this year bring to you.
- 27:12Speaker 1: Just allow them to come to the surface. releasing that
- 28:24Speaker 1: and ask yourself, what would I like to invite more

- 28:36Speaker 1: I ready to bring more of, to make space for?
- 28:44Speaker 1: Thank you. Thank you. Now ask yourself, is there anything
- 29:51Speaker 1: you need to release in order to create more room
- 29:55Speaker 1: for this? Is there something you're holding on to that
- 30:06Speaker 1: you could just decide to let go? And now, could
- 30:45Speaker 1: you reconnect your sankalpa bringing your sankalpa back to mind
- 31:26Speaker 1: and could you visualize yourself what you look like with
- 31:33Speaker 1: this in your life your heart's deepest desire And how
- 31:54Speaker 1: does it feel for this to be a part of you?
- 31:57Speaker 1: Allow all those feelings to flow through you. Allow all
- 32:36Speaker 1: these good feelings to flow through every cell and every
- 32:41Speaker 1: part of your body. Feeling what it's like for your
- 32:47Speaker 1: sankalpa to be true, manifest. Gather up all these good feelings,
- 33:11Speaker 1: all this good energy. Could you send it above you?
- 33:17Speaker 1: Really feel you could send good energy above you. Send
- 33:25Speaker 1: it beneath you. To the right and to the left.
- 33:35Speaker 1: So you're lying here, completely encircled in a big bubble
- 33:42Speaker 1: of good feeling. From this space, could you internally whisper
- 34:09Speaker 1: your Sankatpa to yourself three times? Really feeling it through
- 34:16Speaker 1: your whole body as you say it. So releasing that.
- 35:11Speaker 1: And we'll spend just a few moments here simply basking
- 35:19Speaker 1: all this good energy that you've created, you've cultivated within yourself.
- 35:58Speaker 1: And if time allows for you, you may like to
- 36:01Speaker 1: remain here. Or if it's time for you, To continue
- 36:08Speaker 1: with your day, I invite you to bring all your
- 36:13Speaker 1: awareness back to the physical body. Noticing the meeting points
- 36:24Speaker 1: between your back body, the support beneath you. Noticing the
- 36:37Speaker 1: breath in the body. And we'll take a big inhale,
- 36:47Speaker 1: deepening the breath. And letting it go. Let's do that again.
- 37:00Speaker 1: Big inhale. One more time, biggest inhale you've taken all day.
- 37:20Speaker 1: And slowly bring your awareness back into the thumbs, making
- 37:26Speaker 1: little circles with the thumbs and then brushing them across
- 37:31Speaker 1: your fingertips. Making little circles with the wrists. And then
- 37:47Speaker 1: bringing awareness into the toes. Making little movements with the toes.
- 37:57Speaker 1: Maybe little circles with the ankles. It might feel nice
- 38:09Speaker 1: to give yourself a really nice big stretch. You might
- 38:18Speaker 1: like to bring the knees in towards the chest and
- 38:24Speaker 1: allow them to fall over to one side, curling yourself
- 38:29Speaker 1: up into a little ball. Wherever you are, Just pausing
- 38:37Speaker 1: here for a moment. Just taking a mental note of
