Hello, hello, and welcome to the Borealis

experience. I'm your host Aurora, licensed life coach and

companion on this beautiful journey called life. I'm very

excited to kick start this new season. And every Monday, I will

record an episode for you. As an inventory check, where are you

at? How do you feel? What are your thoughts like, because

during this time a year, and it's gonna get even crazier with

Christmas, we can reflect about our last couple of weeks last

couple months. And by allowing some space, some silence, some

reflection, make better decisions for the future. So

now, it's not Monday, today, it's Sunday. I also want to give

you fair warning that I will probably be swearing at times I

have these episodes. These episodes sorry, marked as

explicit. So of course, I will adhere to that. And be totally

raw with you. I'm a big fan of realness. And of course, this

doesn't always mean that you have to be swearing, and blunt.

But I want to keep it most authentic and not hold back.

Also, podcasting is one of the only channels so to say to reach

people in the world that is not restricted, not controlled. And

that might be changing in the future. So until then, I will

make sure to be my most authentic self and hope that

it's never going to change. Alright, let's get into this

first session of season number eight. If you are driving

operating machinery, please do not close your eyes and maybe

even skip this episode. I'm not going to put you in a trance,

but I'm definitely going to put you in a very comfortable space,

let's call it space. So if you have a couch, if you have a

comfortable floor to lay on, if you have a bed close by, feel

free to just lay down. And if you'd rather be sitting up

straight, that's good to make sure that your pelvis is tipped

forward so that your spine as naturally straight without big

muscle tension. Maybe bring your shoulders up to the ears and

then back down a couple of times. Notice if there is any

tension in your neck that can be released. And if you're laying

down, that's usually way easier to be aware of tension because

you feel the ground you feel the support of Mother Earth. And you

can feel your body being tensed in certain areas and relaxed and

others and we want to make sure that your body is relaxed and

balanced because your body constantly communicate

communicates to your brain how add fields if every need is met

or not. Most of us choose to ignore our physical needs. But

some of us are pretty good at noticing imbalances and then

addressing them right away. So no matter where you're at right

now, relax and this might sound triggering because maybe you

cannot relax right now. Then I do not want you to beat yourself

up. But keep listening and allow some space. Take a deep breath

in through your nose and then exhale through your mouth. And

this doesn't have to become an extensive breathwork practice

but maybe notice how your exhale can be slightly longer than your

inhale so on So again, inhale through your nose, exhale

through your mouth whatever you're going through right now,

then chances are that you are going through something if

you're listening to this and most of us are indeed going

through something right now. Know that right now you are in a

safe space, you are connecting back to yourself. You're

allowing yourself to be you saw at the beginning how long the

episode is gonna be. So you can allow your mind especially your

monkey mind to tune out for a second no problem solving, no

brainstorming, no to do lists, just for a couple of minutes. Be

with yourself. Be with your body. And other big inhale

through the nose and exhale through the mouth. Relax the

muscles around your eyes. Relax the muscles around your ears,

the little muscles on your forehead. Yes, felt is relaxed

and wide open. Your shoulders are relaxed. Your upper arm,

your four arm on the right side is relaxed. Same goes for your

left upper arm, your left for arm. Your hands notice your

hands. You can have your palms facing up to the sky or down if

that feels more safe. Your belly is relaxed, your back is

relaxed. Your pelvis is relaxed, your legs, your knees, your

calves, your feet

take another deep inhale through your nose and exhale as if you

were able to let all your problems sorrow grief, anger

frustration go with that exhale make it intentional just for a

couple minutes let everything go know that everything will be

provided at the right time your problems will be resolved at

some point or another and that along your journey you can't

forget about yourself what is the self anyways? What do you

identify with? What do you identify with and could actually

let go off once and for all Are you your body? I you your job? I

you the position that you hold and your family or are you the

entity observing yourself right now? From above from birds

perspective and if you can go into birds perspective and just

hover your consciousness over your body. I want you to gaze

down and look at yourself with the most kindest loving eyes

You're wonderful, you are amazing. You are unique and very

special and your ways. You deserve to feel loved and

supported. You deserve to feel joy and lightness. And trust me

when I first guide people through relaxing moments like

this, my monkey mind was just kicking in and saying, oh my god

these affirmations are pathetic. She's probably reading it from a

book. She's just saying it because it's her job she doesn't

even know me. Let your ego aside put it in the back seat and have

your heart at the steering wheel opening up like a flower and

receiving the ceiling words and vibes you are needed in this

world. You are appreciated. You are understood allow a couple of

more moments of this to see silence of letting go. I'm gonna

leave you with this. Until next time
