  Welcome to the Reconnect to who I Am meditation.

  To begin, just get nice and comfortable wherever you are and take a few gentle, peaceful, slow breaths, Just letting your body relax as you breathe in and out, slowing everything down.
• 0:46
  And as you breathe, just notice the air flowing through your nose. As you breathe in and breathe out through your mouth, just notice that energy, that feeling of the breath.
• 1:18
  And as you breathe, just notice that you are not the breath. You are watching the breath.
• 1:34
  You're not the air that comes into your body.
• 1:42
  You're not the carbon dioxide that you breathe out.
• 1:59
  There's something deeper.
• 2:03
  And as you breathe, noticing that even the body itself is something that you're watching.
• 2:16
  You are the witness behind the body, beyond the limits of the physical body.
• 2:30
  You are the wonderful presence that is watching the breath.
• 2:40
  Completely different from the limits of this physical body with the five senses.
• 2:54
  So you can just let go of the body, knowing that it is a wonderful thing that you use.
• 3:08
  But it's not who you are, letting go of the breath, letting go of the body.
• 3:25
  And now think about your name and your occupation.
• 3:34
  Name is something that was given or chosen, that existed somewhere else, that has been assigned to your body or to you.
• 3:50
  But you're not limited by your name.
• 4:03
  And just let go of the name.
• 4:08
  Just be a being without a name.
• 4:26
  Now think about your occupation, your role in this game of life, what you do, your position, work in, your life, your family.
• 4:45
  All of those things are just like a role that we play on a big stage.
• 4:56
  And you're not limited by your role by your occupation, by your titles, by your education, by where you were born.
• 5:14
  So just let it go, let it go. You are something totally different and higher, more wonderful than any of those limited things. They are all things that happened.
• 5:30
  They're all labels.
• 5:33
  And just consciously let go of all of the roles and labels of the body.
• 5:43
  So you're just a being, just a being watching everything from a distance.
• 6:04
  Who are you?
• 6:06
  When you let go of the body, the name, the occupation, the labels, the breath, the age, just let it all go as if it's happening to someone else far away.
• 6:35
  Imagine that everything about your body and your role in life, like happening to another person on a screen, on a TV show, far away, in another country, absolutely nothing to do with you at all.
• 7:05
  You are beautiful presence, still calm, loving energy, totally safe and secure.
• 7:21
  And imagine you float up away from the screen, away from the whole game of life, the body, all the details, all of that is limited, temporary associations.
• 7:38
  You just float up, away, as if you're flying up in an airplane.
• 7:44
  Fly beyond the world.
• 7:46
  Imagine you're flying up in a rocket, in a space shuttle.
• 7:51
  Calm and relaxed, safe and secure.
• 7:56
  Just pure presence.
• 8:01
  And the whole world, the whole universe starts to fade away.
• 8:07
  As you get further and further away. Time starts moving away.
• 8:13
  Imagine being thousands and hundreds of thousands and millions of years in the future.
• 8:23
  Where everything of the body, the world, people, situations, is long, long, long forgotten.
• 8:33
  And you go beyond the universe into a place of beautiful light.
• 8:40
  Stillness. Like a beautiful sunset.
• 8:46
  Imagine a gold and red sunset.
• 8:50
  Pink, gold.

  Just pure beautiful energy.
• 9:25
  Floating in this golden light.
• 9:29
  Your spiritual home.
• 9:45
  There's nothing to do, nothing to think. You can just finally and deeply rest and relax right now.
• 10:17

  All good feelings, never ending.
