This practice invites us to embrace the transformative power of consent to the divine will, echoing the timeless "yes" that brings forth new life and possibility.
🌟 Centering
Sit comfortably with your spine straight. Close your eyes and take three deep breaths, allowing yourself to settle into a space of quiet expectancy.
🌼 Body Awareness of Receptivity
Scan your body slowly from feet to head. As you move through each area, imagine opening and softening, creating space for divine presence.
Silently affirm: "I open myself to divine possibility."
💖 Heart-Centered Listening
Place your hands over your heart. Visualize your heart as a sacred chamber, ready to receive divine whispers.
Imagine a soft light growing within this space, illuminating your entire being.
🌈 Breath of Consent
Focus on your breath. With each inhale, draw in divine invitation and possibility.
With each exhale, release any resistance or fear.
Silently repeat: "Be it unto me according to your Word."
✨ Womb of the Spirit
Bring your attention to your lower abdomen. Imagine this area as a sacred womb, nurturing new spiritual life.
With each breath, feel this space expanding, ready to birth divine purpose into the world.
🙏 Cup of Transformation
Cup your hands in your lap, as if holding a chalice. Visualize this as the cup of divine invitation.
Imagine bringing this cup to your lips, drinking deeply of its transformative essence.
Affirm: "I say yes to the sacred mystery unfolding in my life."
🌅 Living the Sacred Yes
Envision yourself moving through your day from this place of sacred consent. See yourself responding to life's challenges and joys with an open, receptive heart.
Closing
Take a deep breath, feeling the sense of divine possibility within you.
