From Orin: “Your mind puts out a powerful broadcast of energy.” He goes on to tell us that our inner dialogue is important, as it determines the events people and objects that we attract. This week we use our minds to create higher energy language around our bodies, ourselves and those around us. Words matter. Some words have higher energy, for instance, love has higher frequency than like. Our practice today helps us let go of old out-dated thoughts and beliefs, replacing them with higher words such as peace, hope, harmony, well-being, joy, kindness, compassion, beauty. We learn about a fun exercise we can do anywhere and any time, where we think of a high-energy word for each letter of the alphabet: Abundance, Beauty, Clarity, Devotion, Enthusiasm, Freedom, Growth and so on. Try it!

We are reading and learning from the book Personal Power Through Awareness by Sanaya Roman. Reading Orin is like a cup of tea with a dear, wise friend. Here’s a link to buy the book:

Your intuition is part of your sensory system. Through your intuition, you hear inner guidance from your Soul. In this practice, we explore all the ways intuition can be received by us: through our third eye, through our hearts, and through our gut. All these parts of our sensing ability can inform us of higher guidance, information and support. We use our breath to enliven our sense of intuition, making it more available and present for us. We have a deep encounter with our Soul, feeling the loving embrace of this great beingness that is our true self.

This week we update our pranayama skills with a joy-filled full practice. We do a few breaths we haven’t done together in a while, filling our whole field with LIGHT. We begin with drawing silver light into our spinal cord and nervous system, illuminating us from within. We proceed on to the full practice, adding in the sound of healing for our Heart. The energetic practice clears and cleanses all our bodies, physical, emotional, mental and aligns them with the etheric energy body. We emerge illuminated and filled with zest!

Greetings and welcome. When we embark upon a spiritual path, at some point we come to unconditional love. This is because unconditional love is the most powerful energy in the Universe and we are made of it. We can learn to radiate this amazing light to all who we encounter, and to the world. Orin tells us that unconditional love is when we have our hearts open all the time. To do this we let go of expectations of others, letting them be exactly as they are. While this love is infinitely abundant, it can take some practice to be this love in our lives. This episode gives us a chance to practice this love, becoming a beacon of love for all. We begin with ourselves.

We could all use some peace these days. In this chapter, Orin says, “You can assist humanity in achieving peace by evolving your thoughts.” Our thoughts contribute to mass consciousness. We’ve all felt thrown about by constant bad news, but we don’t have to stay in that place. Through our breath and by evolving our thoughts with Light, we can move away from repeating lower energy thoughts. Thoughts are a type of action. In this episode, we learn how to become transparent to lower thoughts, how to rise in light and to connect to others on the inner planes. There we receive seeds of light that assist humanity in bringing about the highest and best for all.

Digging deep can be hard and sometimes unsettling. We all have ways that we hide from the truth of who we are. And Orin tells us the truth is: You are a great being. Within you is compassion, courage, strength and wisdom to live you life from a higher level at all times. In this episode we dive deep into the wellspring of knowing and wonder with our breath practice, our courage to see who we truly are and to listen for the wisdom of our true knowing.

Our central idea this week is: “The more you can view yourself from a higher perspective the more accurately you are seeing who you are.” This quote from Chapter 7 of Personal Power Through Awareness by Sanaya Roman is our guidestar. We learn to use light and awareness to first understand who we think we are, then to open to who we truly are. Using this light conversation, we develop new ideas and beliefs that uplift us, nourish us and open us to the freedom of being alive in the now.

We dive deep into our own energy field in this chapter, making a commitment to listen deeply to our feelings, and inner guidance from moment to moment, acting upon what is right for you in the present. We do a short breath practice then play with some exercises Orin shares in this chapter. Learning to view things from the perspective of another person, or our pets, or even the sun or a tree. These expansions of ourselves into the world of another helps us create a compassionate field of light, even for those we find difficult. We end with breathing into our hearts and allowing the light of compassion to find us and fill us.

A gentle breath exploration brings us into a clear knowing of our own energy. From this knowing we are able to know more reliably how the energy of others is affecting us. We can use the breath to bring us into alignment with our own inner knowing, and use it to clear energy that is not in harmony with ours.

We can take this breath awareness out into our day, using it any time we need to clear, cleanse and realign with ourselves.

Orin also shares clear techniques about how to deal with doubts: self-doubt about our ability to use our intuition or inner knowing, or doubts brought on by false ideas or beliefs learned from others. Again using our breath, we connect with our mental body, where these beliefs and doubtful thoughts reside. We learn to recognize the deeper information contained in these doubts and how to release them.

We end our light-hearted meditation with a heart centered breath.

Chapter Three: Directing the Unseen Energies Around You

Energy is everywhere, Energy is everything. Everything we encounter, perceive and interact with is made of patterns of energy. Even you.

Being able to perceive what comes to you as energy from other people, from the natural world or from anything is a skill you can learn.

You are in a vast field of interacting flows and energies. You are the field and the field is you. You cannot be separate from the field. Nothing exists separately, everything is intertwined and interconnected.

We are interwoven into the fabric of the Universe.

You are a Magnificent energy-sensing Being. you use your 5 senses to become aware of energy, your mental body or thoughts, you emotions, your physical sensations are all ways you are sensing energy right now. You can learn to use your focus to direct your sensing through any of these capacities.

Skill One: Observe. Some key features that we practice are: Intention, Playfulness, Imagination. Awareness of the quality of energy.

We use symbols from our Higher Self to shift energy.

Chapter Two: Recognizing the Energy Around You

This week we dive into the book, Personal Power Through Awareness. In this early chapter, we learn energy makes up everything around us and we can learn to sense that energy. In order to be able to sense energy and work with it, we cultivate a relaxed stance in the world. Orin offers the technique of making your mind go blank, or turn it into a white screen, in order to reset your energy if you are in a distressing situation or encounter feelings you would like to change. We practice using our imagination to visualize a rose, to recognize we already have the skill we need to begin working with energy.

After our breath practice, we do a meditation by Robert Peng, a Qigong master, to notice our inner and outer senses. https://www.robertpeng.com/

Season Seven!

After 3 years and over 150 episodes of Miriam's Meditations, it feels like a good time to do something new. For the next several weeks, I'm going to be teaching from this book:

Personal Power Through Awareness, an Orin Book by Sanaya Roman. (We will still be breathing too!)

Reading Orin is like visiting with a kind friend whose guidance is useful and practical and above all JOYFUL!

I encourage you to get a copy of the book to get a deeper insight into the meditations we'll be doing. You don't have to read the book, however, you will still get a lot out of the meditations. I hope you'll join us in the energy clubhouse that we're creating on the inner planes.

Play is an integral part of this practice. Let's not take ourselves too seriously!

The Guides and Beings of Light are present for us this week to share a sweet, fun practice that involves clearing away all that is ready to be released with effervescent bubbles! Light-filled energies that arise from below move through our energy field and attach to all that is of a lower energy, that which is holding us in a range of frequencies that we are ready to move is easily released. Come play with us!

Our 150th episode! Thank you everyone for joining in this practice and for sharing this podcast.

Our breath is always with us. Using our focus and our relaxed attention, we learn to follow the breath into healing. Beginning with a focus on healing our bodies, we draw the breath in and out. We follow the breath to our emotional bodies and mental bodies, noticing any entanglements between these areas. Our breath is a tool we can use to bring awareness to ideas that bring feelings that are not harmonious. This is a form of entanglement, where the thoughts create feelings, which amplify the thoughts. If these entangled thoughts are chronic, they bring us down. Using our breath and awareness, we lift these energies and allow healing light to open the patterns. We may have inspirations about these thought patterns that bring us to heal deeply seated ideas that no longer serve us. This brings flow to emotional patterns that once had been stuck.

Once we've reset using the breath, we can expand our focus to share this transmission of light to another person, a situation or relationship that we would like to offer healing to.

View Details

You are more than you may think you are. We are all a distinct focus of consciousness, living in and creating our own distinct time line. As we expand our sense of being we come to realize we have a vast inner storehouse of wisdom and strength. In this journey we contact a future version of ourselves, wiser, more accomplished, more evolved. That future self cares about the things we care about, our projects, our work, our relationships. That future self has already accomplished the things we are working on and can offer guidance and support to us in the present moment. We receive from this future self understanding, solutions, knowingness. We then venture even deeper to reach an even more evolved and beautiful self, which sends to us love, care and acceptance. We emerge refreshed and renewed.

Stretch your body and your mind with this session of breath and meditation. Walk along the shoreline, opening to the water as a living being. Float in the waves and beneath the surface, merging with the perfect water. Lift up into the sky as we recognize the blue sky mind of sky consciousness, always motion, always changing. We shift our awareness to the shoreline, where we walk into a forest, recognizing the aliveness of the forest consciousness. We recognize that all around us is life, consciousness and fluidity. All is constantly changing, even as we are constantly changing. Becoming aware of this fluid nature of reality as we hold our stability is an important awareness and skill. Come float with us!

A simple powerful practice of opening to the choices that lie before us and working with energy to discern the highest, most light-filled path forward. Using our breath practice, we create a field of clear energy. We imagine 2 choices before us on something we care about, that we are stuck on, or if we are simply hitting a wall. We use our energy senses to perceive what is there in each choice A or B. We follow the energy of whichever choice felt more movement, life and energy. We add frequencies of harmony and beauty, feeling the clarity as we hold our focus and listen deeply. We ask for assistance from our higher self or guide, knowing we have what we need to be supported in any endeavor.

These days we may find we have pieces of our lives or our work that seem to be out of place, or just don't fit right. The world is evolving and changing and maybe we feel out of step. This meditation is all about harmony, harmonizing your energy and light. We first practice with our hands, touching fingertips together to harmonize the brain. Our breath deepens as we open our rib cage with this simple mudra (hand gesture). Then we open to our body of light, noticing harmony in the colors and patterns. Allowing the harmonics to develop we reach high octaves of transmissions of light. We feel the pressure of being human lift off us for a bit. We transmits this softness to others, to our home and our work. We step free for a few moments into the lightness of being.

We all have times when we are overstimulated. Our nervous system feels overwrought and jagged. This episode we do several practice aimed at soothing and nourishing the nervous system. Since it's almost spring, we'll do a humming breath known as Bee Breath. Just a humming sound that moves around the head and face, stimulating the nervous system and harmonizing the Vagus Nerve. From there we practice Smiling Breath, an uplifting easy breath that harmonizes us and brings joy and upliftment. After our pranayama, we work with white and silver light to nourish and support the nervous system. This rich abundant light cools our thoughts, moving all around the body and our body of light to organize and purify our entire being. We move out into our day refreshed and clear.

Welcome to the Abundance Reset. This expansive rich practice will teach you, step by step, how to contact and open to the essential Abundance of Creation. Reality is inherently abundant.

We open to that abundance in these steps:

  1. Notice native/natural abundance. Abundance that makes you feel uplifted or at least neutral. Ignore the abundance of unwanted circumstances or things.
  2. Cultivate joy in the small things. Coffee, walks, dogs that wag their tales, smiles from others.
  3. Be grateful for the blessings of others. This means being genuinely happy for the prosperity of others, unattached to any benefit to you. Make it easy on yourself for now: choose others that you like.
  4. Stop asking “Why me?” or “Why us?” Just start from where you are. Here.
  5. Show your faith by giving some away. To others with no strings. Start small.
  6. Repeat as needed. You will need it over and over. For some time.

It may take years, but it will start to get better from the inside out. You will need to overcome previous momentum gifted to you by generations before you. You will need to replace some of your previous responses, especially your interior thought responses.

This amazing idea of forgiveness as a form of pain relief was shared with me by a woman named Margaret. It speaks to the unrecognized pain we all live with by carrying around unforgiven hurts or ways we’ve not forgiven ourselves for our failings. In this practice we use the power of the breath to bring the unforgiven to the surface and breathe into it, allowing the possibility that we can release it. Breath upon breath we fill with light and gentleness, letting it wash away that which has come to consciousness. We use our growing relationship with our own Inner Being or Guide to recognize truth of situations. Even when we have been wrong or hurt others, we can find a way to forgive ourselves for our shortcomings. Allow growth and self-knowledge to make us better humans. And to find ways to forgive those who have hurt us creates spaciousness in our being, so that pain recedes and perhaps some day (maybe today) releases with each breath out.

We are lighted beings. We can learn to recognize and build our radiance using the breath and the frequency of Peace. We begin by breathing into our physical lungs and heart, circulating the breath and prana. We extend that light to the entire body, which begins to sparkle with Light. Next we breathe light into our emotional body, circulating the light and cleaning anything that needs to be released. Next is the mental body, which becomes fluid and clear so we can lift into the higher mind and hear more clearly our guidance. Finally we find the brilliant shining etheric body, which unites all of our being. It too fills with more and more light as we breathe into it. We fill with the light of Peace, which folds all patterns into one harmonious energy. We begin to flow with the power and dynamic energy of peace. We begin to understand on every level how we can increase the peace of the world by being peace in our own being. Here's a lovely book on the practice of breath and peace: Peace is Every Breath by Thich Nhat Hahn https://www.amazon.com/Peace-Is-Every-Breath-audiobook/dp/B004NRGUVE/ref=sr_1_1?crid=XS9JECUGHAA1&keywords=peace+is+every+breath+thich+nhat+hanh&qid=1706734970&sprefix=peace+is+every+aps145&sr=8-1

Have you ever seen videos of people surfing waves that are 40-50 feet high? They glide down the face of the huge vertical plane of water, which could and sometimes does sweep them away? These times may sometimes seem like we are being followed by a huge wave that threatens to knock us off our feet and sweep us away like broken sticks upon the ocean. What you may not see or realize when you watch those videos is that the surfers are surrounded by helpers! People on jet skis and in boats, ready to snatch them out of the jaws of crashing white foam when then are done with their ride, or get wiped out.

We too have helpers all around us. Some seen, some invisible. Assisting us at all times, when we open and release to receive. Also, we are preparing to meet that giant wave, working on our skills from the inside out. So when life does bear down upon us with events and situations that are out of our control, we are able to ride with confidence. Also, learn to swim.

This episode takes us to a still place, using the Orbit Breath and Rhythmic Breathing. These two sophisticated energy practices bring us to a place where the light we encounter clear and cleanses us on all levels: physical, emotional, mental and etheric. We emerge rested and cleansed.

Welcome to the new season of Miriam’s Meditations. Thank you for continuing to breathe and meditate with us and congratulations on creating time and space for your inner explorations. This week we begin again, as fresh beginners, refreshing our skills and techniques with the breath. We do a few breaths we haven’t done in a while, creating space as the old is swept away with the breath. That which is no longer serving us is easily cleansed, leaving behind openness, light, harmony and beauty. We align all our bodies, physical, mental, emotional and etheric bodies with our focus and our breathing practice. This leaves us refreshed, alert, alive with light.

This is the last episode of Season Five. We will begin in the new year with Season Six. This episode bring together all we’ve been learning about Being our Divine Self and Breathing as our Divine Self. A play exercise from Sanaya Roman, channel for Orin (https://www.orindaben.com/) offers us Aligning with Star Energy as a way to connect to the great beings of our cosmos and bring their exquisite energies into our minds, hearts and lives. We lift into the heavens, finding the Big Dipper, Sirius and the Pleiades star cluster to create a triangle of light. We move with ease, aligning and receiving light, joy, balance and harmony. We become a more perfect expression of our Divine Blueprint.

Thank you all for a terrific year of podcasting. Our podcast has reached 28 countries and been downloaded over 4000 times this year. I am so deeply grateful to all of you for listening and sharing this work. Namaste.

A light-hearted jaunt into the higher energies just for the fun of it. We sometimes think we need to be so purposeful and serious, especially about our spiritual journey. But doing these wonderful playful meditations without aim, not like it’s work but as a fun thing to do, this is valuable and valid in it’s own right. It is in the play and the just looking about to see what it there that we can find just the right pivot to just the thing we were needing. We often cannot see what is next when we fight too hard for it. Sometimes we just need to let go and play.

We have been practicing connecting with our Divine Self, breathing as the Divine Self, being the Divine Self. This episode brings all these together in the light of being, where we are our most open to the true nature of who we are. We find this light easily now, breathing and circulating this vitality throughout all the layers of our being. We use these precious moments of breath and peace to share our light with those we love, with our projects or anyone that need healing and light. We find the true nature and power of love as we witness the beingness of the Divine Self.

A de-stressing practice that is soft and easy for these holiday times. Some gentle opening breaths, massaging our breathing spaces to create ease and openings. Then we open to our Body of Light and experience a solar radiant presence. After filling with light and warmth that is flowing to us, we experience our ordinary selves on a walk in the radiance. We notice we are trailing light, sparkles of brilliance and shine flows effortlessly from our own personal radiance. There is great joy in this light that we are and so easily share. Come walk with us!

When we breathe in our practice, we open to our deeper being. We all want to know who we are, and on this deeper level we are our Divine Self. The Divine Self is us. It is our expanded, greater being. As we slow down, breathe with our practice, our Divine Self and our everyday self blend, come into oneness. We can ask questions, listen for wisdom, allow challenges to resolve. When we return from practice, the Divine Self awareness can linger, bringing meaning and grace to our everyday world. Gratitude to all of you for practicing with me, with all of us here.

Beginning with a new practice, Solidifying the Breath, we learn how to concentrate the breath deep in the body with a hand gesture and smooth breath. This practice allows the breath to solidify as energy deep within the body, creating open space for more breath while clearing the mind. After our regular practice, we venture into the divine world, recognizing all creation is based upon divine patterns. We rest our consciousness upon the tree, relaxing into the stillness and stability that is the tree. We find ourselves breathing with the tree, into all our pores. We also breathe into the bottoms of our feet, creating heat and grounding with the breath into the feet. We finish by sharing our divine light with our family, community and relationships.

A relaxing and soft practice of breath awareness leads to awareness of the Divine Self. A sweet and simple breath activity starts and permeates this episode. We simply breathe, with recognition of our physical being, starting with softening and relaxing. Notice the hands, the back of the neck, the crown of the head. We move to softening the emotional body with our breath, noticing any emotions that arise with ease and acceptance. Moving to the mental body, seeing thoughts as clouds floating away in the blue sky. Simply being, breathing. Now we notice our energy body as a lighted sphere. Breathing here we soon move up an octave to a higher realm of light and spiritual energy. We being to notice we are in connection with our Divine Self. The Divine Self is not the soul. The soul connects the human consciousness with the Divine Self. We enter into a union and resonance with the Divine Self. It sends us love, support and guidance. A flow of brilliant light comes down from above filled with sacred geometric shapes that flow around us, harmonizing and nourishing us.

Deep listening. Following the sound of the inner voice. Learning to discern your inner guidance as uplifting, nurturing, kind and soothing. We practice listening to our breath, recognizing the breath can bring us to center and balance. The Divine Pattern is outworking all around us at all times. We can learn to find our place in the pattern by using our imagination at first in the inner realms. As we loosen old ways of looking outside of ourselves for wisdom and truth, we begin to find the inner truth can take many forms: color and light, sound and depth, feelings of certain clarity. We must take the time to be still, breathe and release our personality-level ideas of what should be. Find the inner knowingness by allowing. It takes practice. This type of meditation that leads you deep into your own beingness is the key to finding the sound of the pure tone of truth within.

We as human beings are an essential link in the cosmic web. In our embodiment, we join heaven and earth energies. We begin today with stretching and settling into our bodies. We notice a stream of light energy from the heavens flowing into our heads and down to our feet. After a few breaths, we begin to draw energy up from the earth into our bodies. The energies begin to set up a union of heaven and earth through our focus. This is easily done as a playful exercise. After our pranayama, we notice our aura and body of light, filling in the frequencies of light and color, patterns of harmony. We begin to lift our earth reality to the higher octave of light. We also follow the energy down to the earth plane, imbuing ordinary reality with light and energy from the higher realms. The two become one. We are the focus of the joining, through our energy systems and our attention. We allow this expansion on behalf of all of humanity, radiating this light out for all to use.

We have so many opinions and sentiments about abundance. This week, we use our awareness of how the breath moves in the body, especially when we are in the top of the breath and letting the breath flow out. Air is inherently abundant on our planet earth. When we notice the fluid flowing breath, we find abundance and recognize the nourishment of breath. As we expand into breathing as our Divine Self, we know that qualities such as harmony, peace and love are all infinitely abundant. We recognize our inherent ability to sense our divine self and expand into its awareness. We begin to find our place in the divine plan. The divine plan does not require surrender of self but becomes an enhancement of self, for as you find the place where you can offer the highest and best of who you are, the plan returns to you a flow of high quality purity that buoys you higher and higher. You become the best you can be and more and more of your highest good can flow to you.

This episode marks the beginning of a new exploration of Breathing as Your Divine Self. What does that mean? We will be exploring what is the Divine Self, how we can expand our awareness of ourselves in this larger wholeness and what it means to breathe in this way. We start with some exploration of our Optimum Breath, opening our capacity to breathe in a way that is balanced for our activity, fluid and flowing and open in all areas of the breathing space. We use the breath to clear our minds and settle the emotional body. Moving on from our pranayama practice we then find ourselves using the imagination to sense, play and open to the energies of our greater being. We use the power of breath to expand into potentials for new openings, new vistas, finding what is moving toward us in the greater world, connecting to purpose. We finish by breathing into any portion of the physical body that needs attention or focus at this time. Optimum breath leads to opportunity to heal.

Welcome to what’s next for you. Two links below recognizing the people of Maui as they use their sacred waters to create a cleansing ritual known as a Paddle Out. This paddle out had over 1000 surfboards and riders, all singing their hearts into the light of the ocean. Many had not seen each other or their Lahaina home since the fires last month. Trigger alert: The longer of the two videos has views of the fires and the burned landscape. The shorter video has only video of the water and surfers and some local people sharing with the reporter.

In the breathing practice we find clear energies and openings. We refresh our pranayama and notice all the light it brings into our being. The sphere of light all around us, our etheric body or aura, shimmers with new energies. Noticing all that we can bring in that creates more and more beauty, sounds, colors, memories, joy, love, peaceful flow. As we move deeper into the meditation, we lift higher, noticing whatever may be ready to shift for us first as energy, then as color or patterns or waves of heart-full emotion. Light pours in, refreshing and renewing us. We are aware of opening to what is ready for a shift or whatever is next for us.

Aloha everyone. This episode is a special sharing of spiritual Light for the island of Maui, her people and all those affected by the fires of August 8, 2023. The guides have called this episode Circles of Light. In Hawaii, there is a word for family and it is Ohana. OHana can be pictured as a circle of light. You can have an ohana that is your family, your neighborhood can be your ohana, or your work friends. Ohana is flexible and inclusive.

In this powerful meditation, we start with our breath, breathing as one. We engage with the spiritual light of our own practice, calling forward our connection to the spiritual realms and breathing that light into our being. Harmony, compassion, beauty, love. Recognizing our light, we reach out to for a pattern of lighted spiritual nourishment with all those participating in our meditation. Recognizing the ancient banyan tree that is the symbol of Hope in Lahaina, we offer our pattern of light that it might help clear the ash, cleanse the wounds, salve the hearts, and uplift all into the light of love.

Hope is a radical act of braving the future and daring to imagine the highest and best coming into being. We offer this light of hope that it may become food and sustenance and a future that is filled with love and blessing. Thank you for participating and being part of this journey.
-Miriam

When we are in a state of not knowing, we open to the vastness of our consciousness and the flows of reality. When we are busily directing and checking things off our lists, we by necessity shut out a lot of input. As they say, to everything there is a season. A season of list-doing and a season of flowing with what is. When we are in a place of truly not knowing we can simply be, following the flows of what we connect to in the moment. Standing in the unknown, ready to embrace what is to come, we surrender to the beauty and power of beingness.

We return to the fullness of our breath practice today. We also close with a few words from The Dear Ones: These are not my words but those of a friend and regular meditator on this podcast. She transcribes for those that call themselves The Dear Ones. ”Let us walk together, arm in arm, open to the beauty around us, seeing/hearing/smelling the magnificence that surrounds us. Understand that you are an equally magnificent part of what is around us. Enjoy the experience and relax, trust the help that is sent to you, that is on its way, that you have already received, that have put things into motion for the highest good and your own benefit. Trust it so that you do not have to worry about outcomes--call upon us to help smooth your way. Notice your feelings; acknowledge them, and continue practicing faith so that you can connect strongly and closely to those with you. Just be. Be who you are, allow others to be who they are, see them, acknowledge the difference they want to make. Listening and connecting is a tremendous gift that you offer. Many people go through the day without ever feeling understood. Welcome each person, each opportunity, all the energy sent toward you, all the love. When you feel anxiety or worry, come to the present moment--breathe deeply. Open yourself to newness and a fresh start--it is there every moment and is the gift of the present. Be aware of your movements and all that you express. Move gently, with kindness, respect, and dignity. These qualities will bless you as well as those around you. Allow yourself to slow down to the present, breathe deeply of the universe and love coming toward you, and of the wonders that surround you. You are equally wondrous. Be a gift to those you encounter.”
If you’d like to read the messages of the Dear Ones, you can find them on FaceBook.

We had a wonderful, deep conversation about how breath practice and regular meditation can bring your focus into a higher alignment with your true nature and express that into your life with greater ease and flow.
Also, I read an article this week about breath practice and reducing your risk of Alzheimer’s in HuffPost. A recent unique study showed that a simple 5:5 breath pattern practiced 20 minutes a day, twice a day for 4 weeks increased heart rate variability, which tends to drop as we age and is an important factor in overall fitness, and decreased amyloid-beta peptides in there blood stream. These peptides are connected to Alzheimer’s and may be the main cause of the disease. https://apple.news/A0JWYDBCtRt60ULqcfeBi6g The Breathing Technique that could reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s.

We practice this 5:5 breath pattern in this episode along with our usual breath practice. We also do some practice on finding things as energy, using the natural world as our canvas. We use our imagination as a sense to find a single flower, which we study deeply with our mind’s eye. We see if we can discern an interior geometry to the flower, an inner patterning that is the flower’s vast, deep beingness. We extend that sensing to the natural world around us, noticing connections between trees, plants, any animals in our vicinity. We recognize the natural world as the ground of our being. We send gratitude for our lives that are supported so freely by the earth herself.

Returning from my 6-day Light Body Meditation, I am filled with exuberance at the high frequencies of illuminated light we experienced with our Light Body Group (OrinDaben.com). Even with my own dedication to my spiritual practice and many consecutive days of meditating, I still find the modern world can be physically, mentally and emotionally noisy. This can cause a kind of underlying anxiety that we all feel from time to time (maybe all the time).

Since our hands occupy a large area of the cerebral cortex, we can use a relaxation of the hands to bring a calm and peace to our inner realm. We start with this Hands of Light meditation, which we use to quiet the mind and bring liquid light into the hands, arms, head and above. Then we explore our own cocoon of light, surrounded by a whisper of rainbow light. Exploring further, we engage with the high pure frequencies of Love, Peace, Joy, Beauty, Harmony and more, not only as emotions we recognize in our human capacity, but as eternal abundance flows of spiritual energy that we can use, amplify and share. We extend that sharing out to the natural world around us, participating in calling a new world into being.

Sometimes we need a reset, a return to an easy peaceful practice. Life can be difficult, even as we wish for and strive for comfort and safety. We are influenced by so many things we cannot control. In recent days and months, I have been on a journey of changes in my own life. Many have been very difficult, unexpected. Asking from me a kind of fluidity and adaptability that I sometimes didn’t know I could enfold. And yet, since I have many years of spiritual practice with breath and meditation, reading and study, I have been able to move through this painful time and come out on the other side with new understandings, new relationships and a fresh appreciation for the gift that is a spiritual practice.

This week we return to a balanced breath practice where we learn to gentle the in-breath with a visualization technique of bringing the breath in from between the legs. We balance that with a strong out-breath, using a short quick puff at the end of the exhale. From there we unite body, mind and emotions, lifting up into a spiritual domain of light, harmony and beauty. Joy abounds.

Spring is upon us! And with that we learn about the Spring of the breath, the inhalation of life and life force. All around us life is awakening and stirring. We walk together into a garden of beauty and color and scents and all the life forms, busy with Spring energy. These life form--the birds and bunnies, the flower and insects, the Elementals, fairies and gnomes--all create from the materials of the Earth, a beautiful world that we all enjoy and share. They know instinctively how to come together to turn the raw elements into food and homes. They even move around the water and earth itself, creating patterns and interlocking systems that share food and resources with each other. With our appreciation and recognition, we come into the higher frequencies of Light and draw these into our own sacred patterns. We become the conduit of Light into all levels and arenas of our lives.

With the never-ending news cycles, we can sometimes feel a little battered. For over 30 years, I have used flower essences from Perelandra Nature Research Center to balance and stabilize my energy fields. Follow the link below to read about, and order if you’re inclined, their Emergency Trauma Solution (ETS). Similar to, but more powerful than Bach Rescue Remedy, this solution will help balance and stabilize your electrical systems, especially when the news from near or far affects you in a traumatic way.
Also, I mention in the episode a book I’ve been reading about our electrome, our various interlocking electrical patterns and frequencies. Link below to Bookshop.org.
We then enter the world of Breath as nourishment. Following the breath into and out of the body we notice the purifying effect of our breath exercise over time. From there we expand to notice the field of our beautiful sun, shining golden yellow energy that nourishes all life, from seeds in the warming soil, to the animals of the land and sky, to all life on our earth. We derive our very nourishment from our sun. Using this as a way to recognize light energy, we follow out into the cosmos, recognizing our vastness without and within. Our inner being notices and amplifies Harmony, Beauty and Love as frequencies. These frequencies are essential nourishment. Using our own focus and awareness we weave patterns of goodness and wholeness, doing our part to call the New Earth into being.

Spiritual practice is an honor and a privilege. We are privileged to know about and have found a spiritual practice, adding light and coherence to our own lives and making an energy contribution to the world around us. We do this by adding higher frequencies such as Harmony to our own consciousness. By becoming harmonious, adding this powerful frequency to our own being, we begin to make it available to others, either by our own intention to be of service or by simply by being in high degrees of harmony as we move through our lives. In this episode we learn to recognize inner harmony with our subtle senses and amplify it with our attention and focus. This powerful inner activism adds harmony to the world through our combined efforts.

What’s larger on the inside than the outside? Seeds! Journey with us on an exploration of inner spaces that are vaster than they seem. Like the seed of a sunflower that is the essence of the possible huge plant, your inner being is vaster than you may know. As we learn to silence the everyday mind and turn to our inner being, we begin to notice there are many seeds of possible activities, projects, skills, learning or purpose that are available to us. We create fertile soil for these seeds by noticing outdated belief patterns, or mental or emotional flows that are ready to shift for us, creating space and new attractions for our seeds. We focus on one seed that we would like to incubate, allowing fresh insights and inspiration to flow. Adding flows such as harmony, beauty, abundance, peace and joy, we create the fertile arena for our seed to blossom and bear fruit.

This week we do some different breath exercises. We begin with a review of the three parts of our breathing space: abdomen, rib cage, and upper chest. We practice filling each portion of breathing space with breath one at a time. Then we put it all together into a Complete Breath. We carry that Complete Breath into the Orbit Breath, a powerful breath that brings light nourishment into the nervous system. Finally we use our imagination and focus to visit a Temple of Healing. We are greeted warmly and work with 3 colors of light to nourish our physical body, our emotional body and our mental body, bringing each one to a higher order. Finally we notice our spiritual body, a fine, pure white light all around us. The higher Harmony of this Temple has enhanced our ability to find our spiritual body. We finish our journey with gratitude and return to our ordinary reality, refreshed and renewed.

Do you have things you worry or stress about? Is there some issue that simply feels stuck, like it hasn’t moved in a while? Recognizing that we humans often cycle or circle around on the same themes and areas without resolution or change, this episode offers a process to change and shift recurrent mental flows. Learning to be fluid within the openness of meditation creates space and fresh arenas. We are more able to notice outdated beliefs and patterns that have held our mental body in these old ideas and forms. From this more open stance in the energies, we add Harmony and Beauty to our previously stuck areas, allowing for new ideas and insights to come through. Old energy is released and becomes fluid and we lift into the higher light.

Welcome to a special episode recorded at a recent workshop called Elements of Breath .
In Elements of Breath, I share some fundamentals on the anatomy of breathing and the practice of breath (pranayama) for healing the emotional, physical and mental bodies. This session is informational and lively, with some breath activities woven into my talk about why we study breath, how to identify faulty breathing patterns and your optimal breath. There are some detailed explanations of the pranayama breaths we use in our regular sessions as well as more in-depth info on breathing and breath practice.

Joyous richness awaits you in this journey of wonder, awe and high-frequency vitality. Beyond simply reducing stress, we travel deep into our Inner Beingness to find a new way of being alive. Our practice has matured to allow us to sense inner energies that nourish and enliven us, directing our focus to a new vista of possibilities and flows. We begin with the Orbit Breath, which enlivens and refreshes our nervous system. After our breath practice we engage all our focus and energy to find the wonder these inner energies and experiences.

Reaching a new level of Light, you are evolving into a greater knowing of your own beingness.

Begin by noticing the group of Like Attracts Like energies/consciousness all around you in whatever way you can, even if you feel you are imagining it. This richness of community assists us all by harmonizing, helping us recognize new energies, opening us to connections. We also witness our surround of Light by experiencing a Cloak of Light all around us. We allow this Cloak to open us to our own Highest expression of Who You Truly Are. Sit within the Light, breathe into Being. Be still within. Know that this Light, this opening to your Highest Self is your Greatest Contribution. And from this place of evolving opening fluid Light, you Are.

From this dynamic, open energy, witness your contribution to earth plane, flowing through, moving out and out with pure frequencies. Abundant, fresh, fluid. From this stillness and Light you are perfectly poised to contribute all you came to do.

So along the way, teaching this podcast, I teach from my life. My life experiences are woven into this work, for as I have progressed along my path, I have endeavored to share with all of you what i am working on, what I am learning, who I am becoming. Now is no different. Now is the time I have to be more fully truly who I am. I have spoken to you often about being WHO YOU TRULY ARE, in capital letters. For we all sell ourselves short. We all pretend to be less than who we are, for we have been told we are small and the universe is large. This is only a very small part of the story.

We are VAST BEINGS of LIGHT and LOVE. We have strengths we have only begun to discover. And we are evolving into our Vastness every day. We are creating new subtle senses to open to energies only heretofore imagined by the sages of old. We are the NEW HUMANS come to life. We are the ONES, the HOLY ONES who travel this path of new openness to the discoveries. We are the witnesses to the being of beingness.
Quite grand, yes? It is quite grand and we are quite grand. We turn within and find wonder, awe, vastness, light, love and the ground of our being. We are one helluva BIG.

Two wonderful milestones for our podcast this week: 5000 downloads and 100th episode published! So exciting for our project and deepest thanks to all of you who are listening, sharing and breathing with us.

A few cosmic occurrences this week have inspired our Journey of New Light: Occult of Mars by the waxing gibbous moon Jan 30 and Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF). A bright Green comet near Big Dipper and Camelopardalis (the camel), whose last appearance in our vicinity was 50,000 years ago. And the comet comes into the solar system from above out of the Oort Cloud, rather than in alignment with the orbit of the planets. Links below for more info.

It’s also the Celtic Festival of Imbolc tonight and tomorrow. This marks the halfway point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox.

We use these cosmic and celestial markers as a bouncing off place to discover expansiveness and openness in our breath and our consciousness. Breathing into the back body, we open ourselves. Launching out into our imagination, we use our powers of subtle sensing to notice anything we can about the LIGHT of this new time. Even if you feel you are imagining this, it is an exercise in freedom and fluidity. Let yourself roam the cosmos with your expanded consciousness. We come to understand that Awe and Wonder are ways to use our conscious awareness to enrich our lives, and to create a steady stream of new thoughts, new awareness, new openness to all that is possible in this rich exciting time.

In each breath practice, we do the Minor Yogi Exercise. With this breath exercise, we call forth our perfect blueprint of being. In this episode, we explore more deeply what that blueprint is and how it harmonizes and clarifies all layers of our being. Starting with our physical bodies, we use imagination as a tool to align with the blueprint, calling Light into all our cells of the body. We recognize the power of our emotional bodies, using the blueprint to clarify our emotions, aligning to higher flows. Our mental bodies also come into alignment, with higher thoughts flowing. We venture further into beauty and harmony, into no time and timelessness, calibrating to our own True North.

Welcome the Solar Light into your consciousness as a way to open to wonder and awe. We use the wonder of our breath and the gifts of practice to recognize how wonder fills us with inner nourishment. From that opening, we use the light and love of the Sun to infill our spine and create a surround of Light. Recognizing the nourishment of the sun to create and sustain all life on our Earth, we open our hearts of the experience of awe.

Have you ever wondered if signs and symbols mean anything? In this episode, we hear about how we each have a personal symbolic dictionary that has meaning for us alone. When we look out onto the personality-level world, we encounter symbols that can be recognized as guidance from deeper levels of reality. Also in this journey, we do our breath practice, including the Sound that Heals the Heart. We recognize our own contribution to the unfolding of the evolving consciousness of all Creation, how we are bringing harmony and higher energy frequencies from deep within and expressing them as our essential nature. Through this practice, we engage, with countless others, in birthing a new way of being in the world.

Are you feeling confined by outdated thoughts, ideas and beliefs about who you are? We all feel the need to stretch and expand sometimes, but may feel trapped and not have a way forward. The 14th century Persian poet Hafez speaks to us across time with these lines:

Dropping Keys
The small man
Builds cages for everyone he knows
While the sage,
who has to duck his head when the moon is low,
Keeps dropping keys
all night long
For the Beautiful
Rowdy
Prisoners.

In this journey, we find ourselves with the key to our own expansion, placed lovingly in our hands by our own inner knowing. We open the lock on our own cage, which has already begun to dissolve, and step into freedom. We align with our purpose, our authenticity. Then we, too, can drop keys to all our loved ones, that they might be free as well.

I’m back from my Light Body seminar with great energies and insights to share. One is that we are all operating with certain frequencies running in the background, our Base Frequencies, that may or may not be creating our best self. These frequencies, or energies, might be things like guilt or shame, chronic anger, or “why-me-isms”. But what if we could learn to resonate with higher frequencies like Beauty Joy and Love? What if they became our fundamental resonance that we carry forward into all our interactions, our most private moments and our work or purpose? We explore these ideas in this episode. We also revisit the complete breath and rhythmic breathing.

This week is an encore episode of a popular meditation while I am away at a seminar. “The Perfect man/woman breathes through their heels, while the ordinary man/woman breathes through their throat.” Chauang-tzu (updated with modern pronouns)

In this episode we are breathing through our heels and practicing a gentle walking meditation. Through our connection to the Earth with our heels, we bless our earth and heal her, while also healing ourselves. We recognize our inner work of aligning with and amplifying frequencies of Harmony, Beauty, Joy, Peace, Abundance and Perfection. We breathe these frequencies into our entire being, that we may be a blessing to all as we walk our sacred ordinary lives.

Have you ever sent out prayers or blessings to others in times of need? Has anyone sent blessings to you? Of course you have and others have too. But have you ever taken a few moments to recognize the great gift being sent you by opening to receive? In this journey we open to that light of loving energy and receive. An explanation is given on the difference between radiant energy and resonant energy. There is a difference and with our skill in the subtle energies, we can begin to notice how they are different. Becoming aware of the light of the radiance and the light of resonance we feel the love and support of others, our loved ones who are with us on the earth plane and those who are in the light of Spirit.

A very personal journey into my own shifts and changes. Of late, life has been quite challenging with shifts that have been quite unexpected and life-changing. As I have worked on my own stuff, I came to a place where my Inner Child was feeling quite afraid and alone. I’ve also had some difficulty breathing as I’ve navigated this rough water. After working on this Inner Child issue, my breath has restored. Then this morning I witnessed the most beautiful sunrise I’ve ever seen. This sunrise, seemingly for my eyes only, was deeply restorative and nourishing. Recognizing the nourishing qualities of the essential Beauty of the world, I am lifted and filled with peace. I realize I am not alone. You are not alone. Here’s the piece I wrote about Beauty as Nourishment that I read in the beginning of the episode. Peace, Miriam

Beauty as Nourishment
10.6.22
“Survival is not enough.”
Station Eleven, Emily St John Mandel

Even/Especially in difficult times, we need more than survival, we need deep spiritual nourishment.

Beauty is a current, a flow, an essential food that fills us within so we can come to the outer world with fuel to transform our lives, or to simply meet the challenges of the day.

Inner spiritual nourishment connects us to that which we are in our essential nature, the greater portion of who we truly are. When we source our Reality from this inner realm, that which is expressed and created is of a higher octave of Light.

We now begin to untether from inherited or contrived belief patterns and habitual thoughts, to know our own essential Self and our part we play in the whole. We begin to understand the true Nature of Oneness and that boundaries are not truly divisions but fluid features of consciousness that come and go. Recognizing this fluid nature of boundaries allows an us essential Freedom. Freedom within the Flows.

Noticing and Amplifying Beauty as an essential nourishing energy or frequency creates a field for your consciousness to Soar. From this elevated vista, this stance in the energies, we begin to feel the presence of Harmony, Abundance, Peace, Joy, Love and all the higher octave energies. Using this as our foundation, our focus of consciousness, we begin to shift the way we hold our focus—using these flows as the foundational matrix of our Being.

We all know what Beauty is. We do not need it explained to us. We inherently recognize and embrace beauty. When we are in a difficult situation however, beauty can seem remote. Yet it is within us and available to us at all times. In this episode we explore the Doorway of Beauty that resides in the heart. Breathing in and out of the heart with our mind resting on beauty can bring a realigning of our awareness. This freshening of our awareness allows us to recognize more and more beauty all around us, even in a challenging of situation. Using our focus on Beauty, we practice our sadhanna, imbuing our very cells with the Light of Beauty. Our path becomes one of the higher octave of beauty, our purpose imbued with beauty. We enter the More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know is Possible (Charles Eisenstein).

We recognize that Beauty is everywhere, penetrating from the smallest insects and grains of sand out into the vast cosmos. Beauty abides. We can amplify this beauty with our awareness, calling it forward and witnessing it makes more beauty in our world. We are visited by the Angel of Beauty, a shining luminescent being that gives each listener a gift of beauty, a shimmering example of how our inner activism connects to our outer world and enhances it.

This week, we have a soothing, peaceful practice of simply breathing, noticing our breath and practicing Calm Abiding. Also known as Shamatha in Buddhist practice, Calm Abiding is breathing and letting the mind calm, a cloudy lake that settles the mud to the bottom. We breathe, we notice. Our mind calms. From this still, quiet place we might engage with Insight meditation (Vipashana), receiving wisdom and insight from our deepest being. We also open to releasing anything that is no longer serving us. We let go with ease, allowing this energy to flow out and away to its next level of evolution. We return refreshed and lighter, open to all the blessings that our day can bring.

Open your breathing space, tone your diaphragm and abdominal muscles and clear your mind and emotions with this week's return to our sadhanna breath practice. A luminous cascade of light helps us clear our field, rising in Light to higher energies. We then bear witness to our own Harvest—what beauty comes to you as you engage in changing from within? How does your inner being flow into your life on a daily basis? Clarity and stillness are the fruits of our practice.

A short quote from Light From Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki.
The violinist Katrina takes instruction from her teacher:

“Also, I notice as that you tend to rush. When you rush, all you are doing is practicing your mistakes at a faster pace. So let’s try this at half speed. If that is too fast, we will slow it down some more. Understood?”

A spacious, clarifying breath and meditation practice. We begin at the beginning, with our Beginner’s Mind. Using the powerful Orbit Breath, we come into awareness of our spinal column. We share light of breath with all the systems of the body and begin an exploration of the Breath Within the of the breath. From this clear point, we lift upward to the sky, noticing any clouds that the mind is creating are beginning to clear. What is left is Blue Sky Mind.

In these waning days of summer, we can become weary of the heat. Our bodies and minds are in need of cooling energy. This episode brings you an easy cooling breath that you can do anywhere anytime. Using the energy of a soothing color, we calm and cool the brain and mind of heated energies. Then we move to a dipping of our toes in the water at the seashore, allowing the delicious energy of the water to restore us. The light of the Essence of Water clears and cleanses us throughout all layers of our being. This episode is the beginning of Season Four of Miriam’s Meditations. We are using pranayama breaths that we learned in earlier seasons. So if you are new to Breath Practice, please visit Season One to learn the breaths. Namaste!

A repeat of a useful episode, which has all the breaths we've studied in Season Two. It is a short practice for those times when you want to practice but have limited time available. There is no instruction given for the breaths or the sounds. That information is contained in the previous episodes of this Season Two. The presentation of only the breaths and sounds allows the practitioner to flow along in their own practice, developing skill and receiving sustenance.

Are you feeling confined by outdated thoughts, ideas and beliefs about who you are? We all feel the need to stretch and expand sometimes, but may feel trapped and not have a way forward. The 14th century Persian poet Hafez speaks to us across time with these lines:

Dropping Keys
The small man
Builds cages for everyone he knows
While the sage,
who has to duck his head when the moon is low,
Keeps dropping keys
all night long
For the Beautiful
Rowdy
Prisoners.

In this journey, we find ourselves with the key to our own expansion, placed lovingly in our hands by our own inner knowing. We open the lock on our own cage, which has already begun to dissolve, and step into freedom. We align with our purpose, our authenticity. Then we, too, can drop keys to all our loved ones, that they might be free as well.

Gather your breath and yourself into the light of Stillness. We start with a gentle practice of breath awareness, opening space in the upper body. Grounding into the earth, we venture into the stillness of a quiet lake. We breathe with the trees. We flow in a small canoe, creating gentle ripples on the surface. From there we reach up into the pure Light of Being. Expanding on the flow, we offer the Light to a person or situation in our world. We complete the practice by bringing the Light into the realm of the personality self. Breathe with us!

Our breath is a source of essential flow. We live in a sea of fluid air, which supports our being. Using this flow we identify and amplify a project, relationship or body part that is fluid and strong. From this knowing, we take the time to find the fluidity in it, bringing heart energy to this. When we do this practice we expand the divine energy, the divine pattern of what we are focused upon. From this that is going well, we touch upon something that could use more flow: a body part that is ailing, a relationship or project that seems stuck. We use this divinely flowing energy to enhance that which is less fluid in the moment.

Using our hands, we explore all parts of the breathing space. Taking advantage of nerve channels that align with the parts of our breathing space, we press the fingertips together, opening and bringing new spaciousness to our lungs and ribs. We finish by doing a little self-massage on the rib cage and diaphragm, making room for fresh vitality and energy.

Emotions are essential and powerful. We need emotions to magnetize things to us and to motivate our personality. So a free-flowing emotional body is a wonderful way to use that emotional energy. This practice begins with noticing our emotional state and calling to mind a recent strong emotional event. We notice also the connection to our mental body, and set about working at an energy level to untangle the web between the mental state and the emotional body. This allows the two to work independently and not perpetuate distress in either body. From there we connect to the High Holy Heart near the heart chakra, receiving the light and blessing of this sacred heart. Surrounded by the love of the Divine Mother, we are soothed and nourished.

Relax and renew your vision and your eyes with this short, refreshing eye-washing breath. Using our focus, we breathe into and out of our eyes. Tensions and tightness melt away as we use our techniques to bring vital life energy to the eyes. Tuning to a frequency of love with our heart, we breathe Love into and out of the eyes. Gratitude for our vision brings a sense of beauty all around us. “My eyes are strong and healthy. My vision is sharp and clear.”

A light-filled practice to create an energetic Home Base. Starting with a special flow of Golden Light from Source, we breathe softness and fluidity into our head, tongue, shoulders and torso, all the way to our feet. We soothe and soften any tensions by envisioning the Golden Light. Then we embark upon an inner awareness of our Home Base, building as we go. We’ll start with your physical body adding radiance while we recognize the inherent patterns of our bodies. We then move to a special room in your house, real or imagined, noticing all the special objects we have manifested, creating a field of coherence in that special space. And finally we extend our consciousness to your home frequencies in the Light Realms. Our awareness of the patterns of Beauty, Harmony, Peace and well-being infuse us with these higher frequencies. We radiate from our Home Base all the Light that we are.

Do you need more of something: love, resources, ideas? This episode puts us in touch with Essential Abundance, that inherent quality of enoughness and flow. From a heart-centered energy practice to our breath sadahana, we move layer by layer into wordless recognition of Essential Abundance. Noticing seeds to stars, we see abundance. Breathing in solar radiance, the life-giving energy of our sun, we fill our field with light and nourishment. We come to stillness as we fill our inner being with the light of abundance.

We’ll also take a moment to notice where in our bodies we register distress for the purpose of bringing healing Light to that area. A process that soothes and nourishes done from the higher spaces allows us to hold it all very lightly as we allow and surrender. This gentle release brings a cleansing and healing, resulting in a peaceful inner space.

We recognize the work we’ve done with our breath over time and how our breathing may have changed. A tour of Physical Ease, Emotional Flow and Mental Fluidity allows us to notice how we’ve shifted our perspectives, discarded or updated old belief patterns and disentangled emotions from thoughts to bring us to this new state of fluidity. We recognize our energy body of light and receive a transmission of Higher Frequencies from Source. A gentle return brings a sparkling, twinkling Light gift.

This episode is a fun, playful experience of working with your guide to imagine and experience a multidimensional Clockwork of Light. We design and experience a beautiful creation of interlocking circles, like gears in a clock. These dynamics shapes allow us to use our imagination as a generative force as well as a sense. We follow the flow of this energy into the realm of All Time and then into No Time. We visit a Future moment as we realize the close connection of this more fully realized Self. This delightful, Light-filled journey is a creative antidote to the heaviness we may be feeling in the outer world today. Join us! Add your colors and creation to the whole!

From Oneness by Rasha:

"Imagine for a moment that life as you know it is but a fragment of the true nature of reality. Imagine that you have been given a privileged glimpse into a world where the scope of what can be created is limitless. Imagine that you have been empowered with the ability to manifest anything and everything you wish, merely by willing it to be so. Imagine that you are no longer at the mercy of circumstances that are seemingly beyond your control, and that life is the end result of your highest intent, in all instances. That is, in fact, the nature of your reality. That is the potential with which you have been empowered. Not in some future time and place, but in the “here and now.”

Did you know that each rainbow is unique to you, that when you witness a rainbow, you are seeing a singular rainbow refracted by specific water molecules and landing on your eyes? It’s true! Every rainbow is unique to the person seeing it. I love that idea. In this episode we are breathing with Rainbow Light. We open to our own unique rainbow of being. After our pranayama, we nourish with rainbow energy, using all the colors together, then singly noticing and welcoming each color of the rainbow. Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet. From Violet we reach higher into White Light, touching the next octave of Light expression of the earth plane. We experience some moments of all time and timelessness as we rest in these exalted light energies.

Skills + Spaces = Shifts Choose a project or relationship that you would like to elevate or shift in some way. Beginning with an intention of allowing the highest and best to unfold, we engage with this formula of applying our skills of focus, imagination as a sense and finding things as energy. We arrive in a high space of light and frequencies where we can begin to allow our project or relationship to open to new energy, become fluid and soften so a new level of evolution. Aligning with Divine Light, our efforts are supported from the highest levels. Several powerful shifts bring us to a new awareness. This process can be used to align with the highest outcome of any situation or interaction. When we come from this highest alignment, we support the highest good of all concerned in a meaningful way.

The Steps:

  1. Choose a project or relationship to focus upon.
  2. Using your skills, such as felt sense or imagination as a sense, find your project or relationship as energy.
  3. Soften and allow.
  4. Watch your emotions for clues to blockages. Move with any flows of energy, especially uplifting ones.
  5. Return easily, noticing any shifts or changes in your field.
  6. Take any inspired actions that unfold in the days to come.

These powerful times call us to be the very best of who we truly are. Humanity’s common call is a deep desire for Peace. In this special episode we are blessed to be accompanied by the Angel of Peace, who anoints each heart with a purifying essence. This essence allows us to carry forth this Light of Peace, joining with all others who would also breathe peace.

As you listen and breathe along with the practice, you too will find your heart softened and opened to this Light of Peace. Our job in these times is to remember our essence, and to be a beacon of Peace and Hope to anyone we encounter. We gently weave ourselves into the fabric of the New World that is dawning as we move in greater and greater alliance with each other, with the deeper intelligence of our world and with all Creation. A New World dawns. We open our eyes and hearts to bear witness.

Aloha and welcome to a meditation on Peace, derived from the joyful yellow sunflowers that abound in symbolic unity across our world at this moment. The sun itself is going through a major shift as the new cycle SC25 finally throws off the influence of old sun cycle 24. The two cycles had been interacting since 2019 and now the new is breaking through to full expression. This seems very appropriate to our moment in consciousness across the planet. 

SpaceWeather.com -- News and information about meteor showers, solar flares, auroras, and near-Earth asteroids

In this episode, we practice the short form sadhana. Using the symbology of the sunflower, we follow the sacred geometry of the Fibonacci Numbers embedded in the flowers (Fibonacci number) as well as the Golden Ratio (Golden ratio) We recognize the power of stability in creating peace in our world and welcome the New Cycle.

So much rich texture to this symbol. The intelligence of the sun, the power of the sacred geometry, the support of the inner planes, the recognition of ready abundance all flow together to provide a rich tapestry for this soothing, uplifting meditation.

Sometimes when we do spiritual work, it can feel like we’ve taken a couple steps backward. Things aren’t working smoothly and there are bumps in the road. At these times we may need to work with our personalities to update our connection to higher levels of being. We do this by connecting with our Light Body and our own Inner Being or Guide. From this deeper being we offer frequencies of Light to our personality self, recognizing the intrinsic value of our personality and our role to play in the evolution of all humanity. We recognize the ancestors and their gift to us as well as our future selves shining light and joy upon our path.

Are you concerned about our nation and her future? Uncertain about what, if anything you can do to make things better? Me too. Join us in this very special mediation that invokes the Divine Inception of our Nation and the Constitution, and infuses it with Divine light. Together we connect to Divine light and draw this light into the template of Love, Unity and Strength to call forward the very highest and best that the country can be.

We start with an easy breath meditation and call in our own connection to the Light. We join with all those who are meditating as a form of inner activism to uplift and inspire our experiment in democracy. As we make this connection we reach into the realms of Divine Light, forming a bridge of Light that connects to our experience of our country and the constitution as a living document. Connecting to the evolutionary energy we infuse our appreciation for the Founders and their community for this inspired blueprint of democracy. We finish by hearing the recitation of the Preamble to the Constitution as a ringing of Truth down the generations.

I hope you’ll join us in bringing forward the highest and best our nation can aspire to become. WE THE PEOPLE. Together, we can fulfill the Promise of our National Heritage.

Everything is energy. Behind all physical reality are patterns of energy and vibrations.  You are made up of these energy patterns. We can access this energy reality behind our manifested reality by using our consciousness and focus. In the beginning of Season Three of Miriam’s Meditations, we review our basic breath focus and explore our physical being as the Light generated by our DNA. We then travel inward, connecting to our Guides, arriving at out Body of Light. Illuminating with Luminous Light, we learn the Light Tool of Radiating Light. We enfold with Light a project, person, relationship or something important to us. We close with a joyful recognition of all other groups and beings on the planet at this time that are working on the Inner Planes to uplift Creation.

Blessings of the Water/Natural Knowingness Transcript

We’ve been exploring the connection of mind and emotions throughout our practice of breath. Uniting heart and mind has been a central piece of work. In this episode we feel the harmony and resonance of that exploration and find out more about how our heart and mind work together. Creating this balance leads to mental fluidity and emotional flow, allowing us to rise into higher frequencies of light. From there we encounter a flowing, beautiful pattern of cooling light that we use to cleanse and clear the water of our bodies, our area and all of planet Earth. We recognize the ability of water to hold information and give ourselves the suggestion to bless our water as we partake throughout our days.

This episode is dedicated to Thich Nhat Hahn, the Vietnamese Buddhist Monk who died 1.22.22. Blessed Journeys, dear Teacher. His books Peace is Every Step and No Mud, No Lotus are well worth a read.

Breathe deeply into your heart, right now as you read. The heart generates the body’s most powerful electromagnetic field, 60X more powerful than the brain. You can access this field and create more coherence (translation: peaceful feeling) by using your breath. In this episode we bring together all we’ve been studying with our Sounds that Heal. We recognize the new clarity of our organs and their individual energy fields as a result of this practice. We learn a new breath practice to recognize the differences and similarities between different emotions or qualities such as compassion, kindness, beauty and harmony. By feeling these different states or qualities, we recognize our increasing skill with these subtle energies.

Our belief system is an important component in our mental body. In this episode we journey into our Belief Warehouse, recognizing that many beliefs we hold are inherited from our ancestry, our culture or our media exposure. Sometimes as we evolve and grow, we outgrow these beliefs. They need to be updated. Using processes of Light and recognition, we notice these beliefs and begin to allow them to soften and shift, coming more and more into alignment with who we truly are. We recognize the Light of the Real as a downpouring of essence, allowing it to cleanse and clear our mental bodies, updating them to our now stance in our lives. We release limiting or outdated beliefs as we open to this inner wisdom. We begin to recognize and amplify the powerful patterns of light emanating from the inner realms. We become conduits for this light to reach all of humanity, uplifting and illuminating us all.

Welcome to the New Year! This episode is dedicated to Sanaya Roman, my teacher, who made her passage into Light December 28, 2021. She was a powerful teacher of love, wisdom and purpose, channel for Orin, writer of books on spiritual guidance. She is beloved by many worldwide. A link to her webpage and books and courses below.

In today’s breathwork we learn about an energy lock that is made by placing the hands on the body, one hand on the abdomen and one hand on the heart. Play with which hand might go where and feel for yourself which feels correct for you. We use this energy lock to bring our personal energy into congruence.

We also work with our body of light, noticing the core of light and all the various areas of the cocoon that surrounds. We then amplify our purpose, recognizing our world service and what we would like to amplify in the new year. We finish by traveling along the path of the new year, recognizing our future self encouraging and supporting us as we move along through time.

One: What we perceive is a reflection of our own consciousness

Two: What we are perceiving is never the full story

From these provocative ideas, we learn to loosen our grip on how we think the world should be and begin to open to deeper flows and patterns of the new world that is forming and coming into being.

A soothing practice to gentle your energy tone. Starting with Spinal Washing/Golden Light, we illuminate our bodies while clearing energy residues. We practice our sadhanna with the addition of the Complete Breath and Rhythmic Breathing. This brings us to physical ease, using the Golden LIght to support any body area that needs attention. We also recognize our emotional flow and learn how to keep that flow without repetitive energies. Then we meet mental fluidity allowing our minds to smooth. We then release our personality level reality, moving into the higher realms of Light. From this vantage point we practice our subtle sensing of Light, receive a down pouring of illumination from above. We finish by sharing this pristine, clear light with another person, recognizing our connection to all humanity and all creation.

A gentle fluid meditation practice in this episode. So if you’re needing to just unwind and breathe without strain or stress, this episode is for you. From there we practice the Orbit Breath, an energy practice that moves the breath through the body along the spinal column, bring prana and light to the entire being. We move on to an open space of meditation following flows and deeper energies, refreshing our entire being with new frequencies of Light.

We begin this week with the Hawaiian word Ohana, which means family, extended family and groups of caring people coming together. Celebrate the abundance of the harvest and all of Creation as we explore the frequencies of Gratitude and Appreciation as antidotes to anxiety and worry. We practice the Sound that Heals Worry/Anxiety and also learn a simple breathing mantra (So-Ham) to clear and calm the mental body. The Smiling Breath brings joy and clarity. Lots of new and fun practices here. We recognize our good fortune to have a practice in these changing times. I hope you’ll join us.

The Sound that Heals Anxiety and Worry is the focus of our work in this episode. Being aware of the powerful times we are in, we find our own expanded awareness of our practice. And we unite with our companions on the path to assist, support and buoy our efforts to be part of the change we wish to see in the world. 

We begin this episode with a gentle soothing breath to practice in moments when anxiety and worry overtake us.

A gentle refresh of the Surrender Breath awakens in us a Clarity. Clarity sparkles and refreshes our awareness of Truth of all things. We find our way to open and surrender all that is not serving us in this moment. From here, we are led to the frequency of Harmony. Like layers of musical tones or colors that combine and create new hues, Harmony enriches our world, filling it in with a felt sense that all is well. A ringing Joy rounds out our frequency explorations. We recognize how Joy moves out and out, carrying our light and expression into the world.

Part Two of the Sound that Heals the Heart. A new breath is presented, the Surrender Breath. Surrender Breath brings us to an opening and acceptance of ourselves exactly as we are, allowing Life to move through us. We also find a softness of being that allows us to forgive and accept ourselves. Moving out into our body of Light we also begin working on things as energy. We find any entanglements of emotion and thoughts that are in our field of energy and use our focus and intent to release them. This powerful spiritual technology allows you to let go on an energy level of repetitive patterns of thought and emotional response that no longer serve you. We finish with deep gratitude for the wisdom and techniques of this practice.

Keep True is a direction given in way finding when one is supposed to stay the course. In our meditation today, we learn to keep true to our own inner guidance, our inner North Star that guides us in all our activities. We are learning to build out inner senses so we can perceive subtle energies in our reality. By this sensing we expand what it means to be human. It also means we expand reality for all beings. Using rhythmic breathing we also learn about ourselves: the 4 seasons correspond to the parts of the breath and have information for us as practitioners as to where or how we might need to let go, expand, retain or have faith. Join us to learn more about this fascinating aspect of breath practice.

Learn a sound for healing anger, which is stored in the liver. We read a lot about liver cleansing and sound is one way we can clear and cleanse old patterns of anger and heal our precious organ. We also learn to use the Vocal Breath to speak our truth and the Rib Stretching Breath to make more space for the breath. A meditation of light follows, bringing patterns of Harmony, Peace, Love and Beauty into our field to replace any outdated patterns we have released. 

We remember attitudes are contagious and envision our coherent, light-filled attitude carrying forth into our day, harmonize with all we meet. 

Here’s a link to a Feeling Words List to help you recognize all the various emotional patterns you’re experiencing: https://www.hoffmaninstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/Practices-FeelingsSensations.pdf

A very special episode of breath and Light. We practice our sadhana incorporating the first two Sounds that Heal for releasing grief and fear. Then we travel into the realms of Light to connect with this powerful time in our world, recognizing all that is falling away and welcoming the new Earth that is arising.

This episode was recorded on Maui during the Autumnal Equinox on September 22, 2021. According to Machealle Wright at Perelandra Nature Research Station in Virginia, Nature begins Her new year at this moment. If you’d like an explanation as to why this is so, look here: https://www.perelandra-ltd.com/pdf/TPGW_2012_Sol-Eqx_Excerpt.pdf

Here is Nature speaking to Machaelle about this cycle and human participation: "Human awareness is a vital dynamic within the broad picture of reality. It is not some random, minor personality trait, as many seem to feel. It is a dynamic with its own power that can be linked with the planet's natural cycles, thus benefitting both and becoming another example of co-creative partnership.

"So as you consciously link your awareness to nature’s cycles, and your awareness and understanding about those cycles broaden and deepen, the activity triggered by the event is strengthened to the degree directly proportional to your level of awareness. With this, the released energies permeate the planet and all that exists on the planet more directly and clearly."

Our recognition of and connection to the cycles of Equinox and Solstice become part of our expanding awareness as cosmic and planetary citizens. I invite you to partner with Nature to set the tone for your own new cycle. Think of what you would like to enfold, expand, amplify for your New Year. This can be in an overall sense or for a specific project (or both). Write it down if you like. In this way you are linking your personal cycle to the nature’s cycles thereby strengthening and clarifying it many times over. (from Perelandra excerpt).

In this episode we learn a new sound for our practice, the sound to heal fear. Fear can come into our awareness as a result of old patterns being triggered by something in our outer awareness. Until we are able to recognize and address these outdated patterns that may be operating beneath awareness, we will continue to create opportunities to address them. Those opportunities may not be very comfortable and not based in the truth of who we are now. Through this practice of breath exercises and sounds, we begin to access these unconscious patterns, bring them to awareness and cleanse and clear them. After the breath practice, our meditation brings us to a beautiful Temple of Light where we connect with our our vast, blessed, Light Being, our Soul or Inner Being. Through witnessing the truth of Who We Truly Are, we find our personality level selves able to more clearly perceive truth in our everyday reality. We then can calibrate our reactions to the truth of the situation in which we find ourselves. Then our offering of the highest, clearest frequencies of our own True Self uplifts our world and those around us.

“All your past except its beauty is gone and nothing is left but a blessing.” A Course in Miracles

Fall brings new perspectives. Here on Maui, the light changes to create a deep turquoise blue in our ocean. In this journey we use this color to cool and soothe while we embark up Part Two of the Grief sound of the Sounds that Heal. With this sound, we are calling to our present anything that is ready to be brought to awareness: loss, old thoughts or patterns, outmoded beliefs, relationships or projects that we are ready to release. We create specific vibrations in our field that allow grief to rise up and leave us with gentleness and ease. The other breaths create a surround that supports and nourishes, allowing us to reach deeply without being overwhelmed or injured in any way. Only what is ready to be released surfaces. We are cleansed, cleared, made whole.

This is the first official episode of Season Two of Miriam’s Meditations. It also represents a deepening of our practice as we learn the Sounds that Heal. The first sound we learn to practice is the sound for grief. This sound corresponds to the lungs, the element of metal and an intention to release grief and breathe in joy.

Our bodies remember a great deal of what has happened to us. Some of this we can process and move through, some we hold onto in various ways. Much of this holding is not known to our conscious mind and resides in our energy field. It can cause congestion, illness, confusion. With these sounds, we access these residues and cleanse them, with support of the other breaths of the practice.

Holding patterns in the lungs correspond to illnesses like asthma, flu, depression, colds. It’s almost like a sticky substance that interferes with the highest functioning of our lungs, reducing our capacity to be in life. For if our lung capacity is diminished, we cannot do all the things we might otherwise do.

Join us in deepening our connection to ourselves and our ability to meet the changes of the moment.

“Things falling apart is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing. We think hat the point is to pass the test of to overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don’t really get solved. They come together and they fall apart. Then they come together again and fall apart again. It’s just like that. The healing comes from letting there be room for all this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy.” Pema Chodron, When Things Fall Apart.

A special ‘on the road’ recording from the Pacific Northwest. A world-class Japanese garden is just a stone’t throw from our recording location, so we take a walk through these living paintings of natural wonder. Visit the pavilion, the koi pond and the venerable Japanese maple that is the star of this garden. https://japanesegarden.org

We are reminded that the new update we are all installing is based in Beauty, kindness, peace and well-being. As we notice Beauty, more beauty is there to be noticed. We use our vibratory complement to share these resonant energies with others.

We begin in this journey with a walk in a palm forest, courtesy of former poet laureate of the US, William Merwin. https://merwinconservancy.org/2021/07/palm-by-w-s-merwin/ The palms remind us to go slowly, and be who and what we truly are. And know that this is enough. 

Coming Home to our breath, resting in the complete breath and rhythmic breathing, we calibrate to our own inner knowing. With our breath and meditation practice we come into a knowing of our inner stability, peace and the divine love that pours out for us at all times.

What is a Light Tool? A Light Tool is an inner technology, where we use the power of our inner field of Light. The Light Tool in this episode is used to assist, cleanse or reveal the Divine Pattern of a situation or relationship. We are not focusing Light in order to create a certain outcome. Rather, we connect deeply to share the light we cultivate through our breath and meditation practice, as an offering of Love and Blessing. One of the more challenging aspects of this practice is complete surrender of the outcome. We are simply radiating Light from a pure stance in the energies, knowing our offering will assist the outworking of highest and best for all.

This is the way of the Inner Map. We are mapping these inner realms with our conscious focus and being in the higher flows.

Thich Nhat Hanh, the Buddhist Monk, says: “Breathing in I calm body and Mind. Breathing out I smile. Dwelling in the present moment, I know this is the only moment.” May you walk with an Inner Smile all through your day.

“The Perfect man/woman breathes through their heels, while the ordinary man/woman breathes through their throat.” Chauang-tzu (updated with modern pronouns)

In this episode we are breathing through our heels and practicing a gentle walking meditation. Through our connection to the Earth with our heels, we bless our earth and heal her, while also healing ourselves. We recognize our inner work of aligning with and amplifying frequencies of Harmony, Beauty, Joy, Peace, Abundance and Perfection. We breathe these frequencies into our entire being, that we may be a blessing to all as we walk our sacred ordinary lives.

If you are new to this podcast or to breath practice this is a good episode to begin your explorations. We begin with aloha, that Hawaiian value of unconditional love and the outpouring and receiving of Spirit. An additional value of Aloha, Ka La Hiki Ola, “the dawning of a new day” informs our meditation and carries our intentions to our world.

From time to time it is useful to take a fresh look at how the breath is moving in your body. When you have been practicing a while your breath begins to change, hopefully creating more ease and softness, more flow. This episode looks at those how we are breathing today, noting the various structures of the breathing body, as well as the link between breath and thoughts. We explore how the use of breath practice allows us to soften the mental body and cool the thought patterns that can cause stress or distress. We move from there to the circulation of prana throughout the body, recognizing the nourishing energy that enlivens all the cells of the body and beyond to our Body of Light, our energy field. We open the doorway of higher consciousness letting ourselves bear witness to our deepest Inner Truth.

A special guest invites us to receive the blessing of the Violet Flame. St Germaine requested to appear in our midst, offering a blessing of the Violet Flame. This high frequency spiritual energy has the appearance of a multi-layered flame. It sets up an oscillation with the atoms of the body, releasing lower order patterns and restoring the atomic structure to a pristine tone. The atoms then vibrate more freely, allowing energy to flow more fluidly within the body. The blessing extends to emotional flow and mental fluidity as well. 

Ascended spiritual masters have long assisted humanity in our efforts to align with higher purpose, right outworking and awareness of the divine pattern for all creation. We are grateful to have received this direct connection to a spiritual master to uplift our efforts. We hope you will join us.

Climate changes are on our minds and hearts in this time. Addressing “climate anxiety” that we may feel when noticing changes or hearing difficult news, we offer our practice and meditation as a form of inner activism, contributing to the mass reality harmony, beauty, higher frequencies and support. Working in the background as a yin complement to yang outward activity, we create flows of energy that support the wellness of our planetary home.

A quote from Seth, channeled by Jane Roberts reminds us of how we all contribute to mass events: “There is no event upon the face of the earth in which each of you has not played some part, however minute, because of the nature of your thoughts, beliefs, and expectations. There is no public act in which you are not in that same manner involved. You are intimately connected with all of the historic events of your time.

“You can become involved now in a new exploration, one in which man's civilizations and organizations change their course, reflecting his good intents AND his ideals. You can do this by seeing to it that each step you personally take is ‘ideally suited’ to the ends you hope to achieve.

“If you do this, your life will automatically be provided with excitement, natural zest and creativity, and those characteristics will be reflected outward into the social, political, economic, and scientific worlds. This is a challenge more than worth the effort. It is a challenge that I hope each reader will accept. The practical idealist (pause) . . . When all is said and done, there is no other kind. I bid each of you success in that endeavor.”

Cool your mind with gentle blue light in this journey of mental fluidity. We are building a “room of meditation” on the inner planes with our focus and consistent gatherings. You can visit this energy space by following  your guide or your deeper knowing to this space of presence, wellness, and nourishing light. The quality of Serenity comes through, expanding us and enfolding us as we flow this sacred quality to all our relations. We also learn about all the layers that are included in Healing with the Breath: mental, emotional, physical, spiritual.
