A Zen Mind Guided Meditations - The Space Beyond Self: A Deep Soul Guided Meditation

Episode Date: July 9, 2025

🌑This meditation is a sacred return to the soul, a deep and spiritual release into the stillness of just being. During this practice, we will let go of identity, roles, and ego... everything we’ve been told we are. And in that gentle surrender, we come home to the current beneath it all… the soul, the awareness, the space. This is a meditation of spiritual emptiness -  not lacking, but limitless. A space where nothing is expected of you. A moment to dissolve into the vastness of peace, intuition, and presence.

This is a practice of emptying the body and the mind. Stories, beliefs, desires, releasing the roles that define us. the identities that we carry, the striving that we fill our days with. This is a release of the ego and a full surrender and a return to the soft, vast space beyond the physical, and to the stillness within your soul, and to the truth of who you are,

beneath it all and just allow yourself to experience this practice for whatever it looks like to you. Any expectations and allow yourself to fully be here.

Once you feel ready find a comfortable position perhaps lying down or seated letting your eyes gently close your body settle

deeply into the space beneath and around you. Let's begin with a full breath in through your nose and a complete breath out through the mouth, letting your lungs and belly expand, and a slow and controlled exhale out, releasing it all. One more deep breath in,

welcoming in, fresh oxygen and a full exhale out shift your awareness to your body beginning at the crown of your head invite release to go of any tension or holding

and feel it melt away bone through your forehead your temple softening coming heavy and your jaw feeling relaxed letting your tongue rest gently in your mouth as you unclench your teeth and allow your throat to open and let this softening flow through your neck

and your collarbones into your shoulders and them dissolve and letting this release travel into your upper back any tension mean your shoulder plates bone through your arm your elbows loosening your wrists and softening your fingers. And let this movement travel into your chest, your sternum, seeing the muscles release their grip, letting your breath move easily through you. Soften through the hips and the glutes. Letting go of any stored energy or emotion here.

Feeling it flow into your thighs, your hamstrings, over top of your knees, releasing into your shins and your calves, blown through your ankles all the way out to the tips of your toes. Your body now for your breath and for spaciousness. Thoughts arise, just gently watch them. Let your inner witness rise within and see them for what they are. They are not you. they are not a reflection of your truth your mind creates them but they do not define your mind

not the stories not the roles not the identities that you have been asked to hold you are not your name you are not your level of productivity you are not your image you are not your past or your responsibilities. You are a soul having a human experience or consciousness itself. You are source. A little deeper.

Envision yourself without a physical body as pure energy, as higher awareness. Perhaps you take the form of water, fluid and moving, fire burning through the tree, the shape,

of Mother Earth herself. Breathe into energy of the source that lives within you. Use your breath to melt away any blockages, any constraints around your mind. And feel this release when there is no one to impress, no role to perform. There is nothing to fix or prove. Feel the truth of who you are falls away. through the crown of your head, floating beyond your physical form, self as if you are looking down on your physical body,

as you gently realize. None of this exists. What exists is your soul, your energy, your presence, and your awareness. Space of nothingness that is also everything. eyes, return to the breath, into your soul, into your stillness, right for you, into your physical body, back into the chest, filling you from the toes all the way up, crown of your head, and feel yourself returning, but different, lighter and clearer and feeling completely whole. Take a deep breath in, bring your awareness back to your breath,

just noticing its natural rhythm as you inhale and exhale. You are so much more than what the world sees you as. You are divine source energy in motion. You have already done more than enough simply by existing and by being. You are woven so deeply into the cosmic fabric of all that exists, all that is reality, all that is conscious and unconscious, ancient, beyond roles, beyond form and beyond expectations. You are the embodiment of love, of peace, of presence, of divine clarity. you are everything and everything is you once you feel ready welcome in a slower inhale through the nose

and a longer exhale out through the mouth inhale and a soft exigently begin to wiggle your fingers and your toes grounding yourself back into your body back into the earth and the surface beneath you as you fully return nourished and connected to all that is because you are all that is nothing can define you you are infinite once you feel ready you may wish to gently open your eyes taking a moment to think yourself for showing up to this practice today, for doing something loving and nourishing, for your body, for your mind,

and for your spirit. Wishing you peace and so much love. Namaste.
