Hope in the Midst of Pandemic Meditation 108 - a podcast by Sue Ellen Jones

Today I will use a meditation to address the current situation in our country, our communities and around the world. 

•  Find a comfortable place to lie down or sit with your back straight. 


• Take three cleansing breaths. 


• Now we will do a body scan from head to toe. Tell your head and muscles bone and matter to relax. Speak to your neck and shoulders and arms, the bones, the muscles, and the blood vessels, tell them to relax and go deeper into relaxation. Speak to your neck and shoulders and arms the bones the muscles the blood vessels to relax and go deeper into relaxation. Speak to your chest your abdomen and eventually go to your hips and legs and speak to your own body to relax and to go deeper into relaxation. This is how we bring our physical body into the Sacred Silence.


• We will now take several deep breaths and place our attention on the breath. This brings our heart and mind into quietness while quieting our nerves as well. Now are our spirit and our emotions will also be in the sacred rest the Sacred Silence. 


• Begin by selecting a word that means safety and peace, health and wholeness TO YOU. Listen inwardly, begin to hear the word on the inside. Put your attention on the word that you hear in your mind. And begin to hear the word one syllable at a time. Let go of all extraneous thoughts. No blame here just to let them go. Gently bring your mind back to your wonderful, healing, life giving word. These words are really in our hearts and minds already and are very meaningful to us individually.


•  Stay with the word for a few moments and then transition to opening your imagination. Your imagination is amazing . It is your creative center creating in your mind and heart your current - present  -moment. Your brain and body live in this picture you are creating in your mind. Your special word and your picture will agree. Your picture will reflect what the word entails. I chose the word peace. I listened to each syllable which is one syllable. Then I pictured myself in a boat on a turbulent sea. However I was at peace in the boat. In fact I was sleeping in the boat. Perfect peace. 


• Allow yourself to enter into the emotions of the moment. The deep, deep seated emotions, elevated emotions of gratitude and thankfulness. You might even smell or touch something in your imagination. You are using all of your senses.  We have awakened all our senses in our minds in that moment, your moment of creating your Word Answer. This raises your faith and your trust in God's promises. Soon the answers manifest in you physical life.
