Andrew Carroll: 0:39

Thank you so much for joining me today. I'm super excited for what is the first in many, a guided meditation and, today, what we're going to be listening to is some very cool 852 Hz sound of love and this voice guiding you through some meditation.

Andrew Carroll: 1:05

So here's the invitation As always find yourself a comfy spot. I prefer to lay down and I meditate, and that is the way that works best for me. You find your joy, you find your comfort, you find your place and I'll give you just a moment to do that. I'm shooting for about 15 minutes today of a guided meditation 10 to 15 minutes. I am on a lunch break from learning how to code, so just wanted to get this out because it was coming up for me really powerfully this morning, something I wanted to share with you guys. So we're going to get right to it. You're comfy, you're ready and we're going to be dropping in right now. So if it's safe for you to do so, go ahead and close your eyes.

Andrew Carroll: 1:55

Close your eyes And as we begin, just going to give you a little bit of a break. And, as we begin, just going to give you a little bit of a break.

Andrew Carroll: 2:20

And, as we begin, just going to give you a few moments on your own to get present with your breath, to become present with your breath. Don't control it. In fact, we're looking for surrender and presence in this moment, right now, with every breath.

Andrew Carroll: 2:51

And as we surrender to our breath, we are going to make a loving invitation to our inner child like curiosity and wonder, And as we surrender to our breath we are going to make a loving invitation to our inner child, like curiosity and wonder, to explore the sensations of our body as we surrender to our breath.

Andrew Carroll: 4:01

Whatever comes up for you in this curiosity, be grateful, invite the sensation and witness the sensation. In this place we have no labels. Things are exactly as they are And our practice of radical acceptance allows us to be present with whatever comes up with love, compassion and empathy. As we remain present with these feelings and sensations in our body, in our childlike curiosity and inner wonder, i invite you to notice the trust in yourself that is required in order to be here. Witness the sensation and the location of that inner trust, the inner trust in self, the inner knowing You are capable beyond measure and you are worthy to give and receive pure love. The origins of your divinity are based in true and pure love And because this is true, you are based in divine, pure, true love And as a being of love and light, you are capable of being present with everything and anything that comes up for you at any time. Invite the love to flow through you with every single breath that you take And, as you notice your breath, realize that you are receiving love with every inhalation. This is a beautiful and purifying love that brings release, comfort, healing, calm. This is the kind of love that allows you to exhale and release toxicity and poison, tension, stress, depression, anxiety and lies. With every breath you receive the inhalation and the opportunity to rewrite the story that runs you, and every exhalation is as though you are erasing and swiping away from the page the crumbs of that rubber eraser. Feel that tangible sweeping away and clearing for the new story, the new words, the new spells That love has brought to you in this moment, right now. This is the cleansing alchemization of tension, pain, guilt, shame, as this pure, true love and light enters your body with each inhale and spreads from the tips of your fingers to the soles of your feet, bright, pinpoint stars of collected, energetic love at every joint throughout your body. This love dances whimsically within and without every cell and atom and fiber of your being. This love holds your inner child in a deep embrace and gives comfort and safety and integrates all wounds and trauma that you may have been holding onto. Reach out your hands in this spirit plane, invite love in Twirl together, as though you are children on the playground and the sun is warming your face and the birds are chirping and a soft breeze caresses the skin that holds you present in this body.

Andrew Carroll: 12:45

As you inhale this next breath of love and receive the gift that is meant specifically for you, i want you to picture clearly in your mind and in your root chakra what it is that you need most right now in order to fully express your truth, to live in alignment with your purpose. Exhale anything that gets in the way, inhale that truth and love and light and see, be witness to what it is you need manifesting in your life And as you see this need being met, you create it yourself. Experience the gratitude in this moment, right now, for what the realization and reception and creation and manifestation of that need is. Feel the gratitude, as it has already happened for you, it is already real, it is here, it is now. Feel the gratitude and anchor that in your body. Anchor that gratitude with the love and light and I want you to picture, with this next deepest breath and anchor in your body, what your life looks like when that need has been met, that has been received, the gift is real and your life has changed completely. It's happening right now, in this moment. It's already happening.

Andrew Carroll: 14:58

Experience the sensation in your body of what it feels like to tell the most important person that support, that friend, that partner, that this need has been met, it has been manifested and created and your life is different and you're so grateful for the work and the opportunity and the blessings. Imagine and witness the reality of sharing that met need with your family, your friends, your tribe, maybe your business. Share with them the gratitude that you feel in this moment. Right now It is real And I want you to witness the celebration that you will have when that need has been met. Because it is being met right now, you are manifesting it and anchoring it in your body and your reality, rewriting the story. You are now at the celebration, surrounded by loved ones and companions and partners and lovers and family, and you are celebrating and rejoicing in this newfound abundance that you have manifested In love and light and truth as a fully expressed, further integrated version of yourself. Anchor that gratitude deep into your root with every breath. Now your guests have departed and the gratitude and

waves are still flowing freely because you have started a brand new life, integrated a part of yourself And a deep need, and are moving forward with this truth. Holding that gratitude, come back to the breath and surrender once again. we release control of everything that is without us. We agree with our divinity to practice radical acceptance and truth, with compassion for ourselves and those around us. We surrender to the divine within each of us. we are creators, each in our own way. When we return to our bodies from the soul plane, take some breaths and invite you to roll onto whichever side is more comfortable for you. When you are ready, flutter those eyes open. Welcome back. You have just begun a new life. Axé all day. I love you family.
