LOST YOUNG PEOPLE MEDITATION

Would you hold all lost children close to your heart, and extend the energy of loving kindness to all of them wherever they may be? Please do this with me. Sit quietly and breathe in to the heart center in the middle of your chest, and up to the crown. Pause for a moment. On the out-breath take the light of the universe, and of your heart, throughout your body from your crown to your toes. Continue to breathe in and out like this for several minutes until you settle into a steady calm. Once you feel calm:

On the in-breath say to yourself:
I am aware of the suffering of lost children;
On the out-breath say to yourself:
I am calm enough to deal with this suffering.
Continue to breathe in and out like this for ten breaths until you feel stable and solid.

IN-BREATH:
OUT-BREATH: 
AWARE
CALM

Once you feel stable and solid:

On the in-breath say to yourself:
There is love and healing energy within me;
On the out-breath say to yourself:

I extend this energy to all lost children.
Continue to breathe in and out like this for ten breaths until you feel an expansiveness and sense of interconnectedness within your being.


IN-BREATH:

OUT-BREATH:

ENERGY OF LOVE AND HEALING  

EXTEND TO LOST CHILDREN



A Lotus

 

Breathe in and out with this awareness and direction of healing energy for approximately 10 minutes. Then slowly open your eyes and consider if there are ways and means for you to help lost children in your home community.
