Unknown:

Hey there, and welcome to the Borealis experience. I’m

Unknown:

your host Iran. And yeah, I’m very happy to be spending some

Unknown:

time with you today. I’ve done a little bit of a mixing here of

Unknown:

the music. I hope you like it. So does that like to be

Unknown:

creative?

Unknown:

hip hop. Yeah.

Unknown:

So let’s get started. Yesterday was Valentine’s Day, I hope you

Unknown:

survived. It was an OK day for you or your big celebration. I

Unknown:

just hope that. Yeah, it is not another day that makes people

Unknown:

feel weak and unimportant and not good about themselves.

Unknown:

Today, I want to offer you a meditation for when you feel

Unknown:

exhausted, emotionally exhausted. We don’t have to be a

Unknown:

parent, or in a draining relationship, or in a shitty job

Unknown:

in order to feel exhausted. Sometimes there’s just too much

Unknown:

stuff that piles up. And physically we feel okay. But

Unknown:

emotionally, mentally, we just feel like we want to cry, we

Unknown:

want to sleep we want to escape. And it’s a very hard place to be

Unknown:

because it’s in those times that communication is hardest. And,

Unknown:

yeah, it’s hard to tell people to give us space or what we

Unknown:

need. Because sometimes we don’t even know what we need

Unknown:

ourselves. So I want to offer you a little meditation here,

Unknown:

where you can just be in that moment, be with yourself and be

Unknown:

okay with how you feel and know that it will get better soon.

Unknown:

And for the time being, I want you to believe in yourself. I

Unknown:

want you to remember that you are important and that we need

Unknown:

you out there. Put it as okay for all of us that you take a

Unknown:

break and recharge your batteries. You’ve been through a

Unknown:

lot, you hustle the Lord, You are trying to accomplish a lot

Unknown:

you run around and help other people. And now is your time

Unknown:

where you can just maybe even lay down on the ground or lay

Unknown:

down on a couch. But if you feel I guess you can also set in your

Unknown:

easy seat, a meditation seat. So if you choose to lay down, look

Unknown:

that your arms are approximately 45 angle away from your body and

Unknown:

your feet one and a half feet apart. You let your feet kind of

Unknown:

flop to the side open to the sky and your palms are facing up to

Unknown:

the sky as well. Take a deep, deep inhale in and exhale.

Unknown:

Another deep inhale and exhale.

Unknown:

Very good.

Unknown:

You choose to be in a seated position. Then adjust your

Unknown:

pelvis like I described in the first couple of meditations.

Unknown:

Roll your sit bones back and forth. And then have them a

Unknown:

little bit pushed to the back so that you have a little bit of an

Unknown:

arch in your lower back. You have a straight spine without

Unknown:

big effort. You roll your shoulders up and back. And then

Unknown:

you tuck your chin slightly to elongate your neck muscles

Unknown:

there. Another big inhale and exhale. let everything go. When

Unknown:

you chose to be in seated position, have your arms relaxed

Unknown:

and your hands resting on your knees. If you want a more

Unknown:

grounding sensation, palms down, maybe touch your knee, calves.

Unknown:

And if you want to be more in a receptive position, then have

Unknown:

your palms open up to the sky. Big inhale in. And exhale. Now,

Unknown:

close your eyes, feel comfortable with that. Relax

Unknown:

your jaw muscles lacks the muscles around your eyes,

Unknown:

muscles, forehead, on your forehead. Beautiful. And I want

Unknown:

you to go into bird’s eye perspective. And watch yourself

Unknown:

and then watch your thoughts. Are you proud of yourself?

Unknown:

Sitting there? Making time and space for yourself? What do you

Unknown:

think it’s pathetic and you’re weak. And you should be going,

Unknown:

you should focus on your to do list, get things done. Observe

Unknown:

everything that comes up mentally. And be it good or

Unknown:

negative, aggressive. let it float by.

Unknown:

When we are in this exhausted space, mode or mood, however you

Unknown:

want to call them. We usually on top of it feel guilty or shame

Unknown:

or weak and really beat ourselves up even more. And we

Unknown:

need to allow ourselves to rest. If you’ve listened to my podcast

Unknown:

regularly, you will soon have a very valuable tool that your

Unknown:

hand to not run into that burnout sensation anymore. To

Unknown:

have perfect balance between tension and release and

Unknown:

relaxation. Because this is what you need. You can’t just go go

Unknown:

go all the time. Big inhale and exhale.

Unknown:

Beautiful.

Unknown:

Now imagine your best friend. I personally really love doing

Unknown:

that meditation, either with you or without you, them doing the

Unknown:

meditation and you watch them. Would you think they’re

Unknown:

pathetic? Would you think that they’re weak? That they’re

Unknown:

wasting their time? No, I don’t think so. I think you would look

Unknown:

at them and deeply appreciate them. Enjoy to see them while

Unknown:

they meditate and are in a peaceful state. state of calm,

Unknown:

deep quietness. Imagine your friend sitting there are

Unknown:

language.

Unknown:

Now

Unknown:

I want you to send that same appreciation right into your

Unknown:

heart. Same respect, the same warm loving feeling that you

Unknown:

just had coming up for your friend there. I want you to send

Unknown:

right in your heart space

Unknown:

might be hard. At the beginning it was very hard for me to start

Unknown:

but you can do this you can send yourself the kindness that you

Unknown:

extend to other people you don’t have to be hard on yourself at

Unknown:

all you can be gentle big inhale and exhale and on top of all you

Unknown:

can be very very proud that even if you feel exhausted and

Unknown:

drained you chose to join me here today and to do this

Unknown:

meditation

Unknown:

valuable not only for yourself but for everybody around you

Unknown:

another big inhale and exhale now notice how your heartbeat

Unknown:

nice and steady your breathing more deep than show very good

Unknown:

now you can continue to meditate you can count your breath your

Unknown:

inhale and your exhale you can choose to do another meditation

Unknown:

Unknown:
