In this bonus minisode, you’re invited into a grounding ritual — one that rose up unplanned during a conversation with a guest, and insisted on being shared.

This is a moment to pause.
To feel the truth of where you are.
To reconnect with the pulse beneath your voice — that wild, steady rhythm that holds you long before any words arrive.

If you’re longing for a reset…
If your speaking feels scattered or over-efforting…
If your nervous system is whispering for spaciousness…

This minisode is a doorway back to the place your truest voice begins.

Hello and welcome back to Soulful Speaking. You're not going to hear this for a couple of weeks, but a guest of mine just encouraged me to go live with a meditation. So I'm doing it. If you're driving a car, do not close your eyes. Everyone else, go ahead and take a moment and close your eyes. Notice what's here for you mentally, physically, energetically, and emotionally, right here, right now, in this moment, without trying to change it or fix it or suppress it. Welcome it all. Notice it all. And then let's take three deep breaths together in through the nose, out through the mouth, making whatever sound comes to you. Two more. And as you make sound and you breathe, see, feel, imagine anything that you don't need exhaling out your mouth, draining through your tailbone and down and out your legs and out through the soles of your feet. And then notice what's here, right here, right now in this moment. Mind, body, breath, energy. And see, feel, imagine that you have root systems coming out your tailbone in all ten toes. And those root systems travel through that top layer deeper and wider, deeper and wider, deeper and wider, until eventually they plug into or wrap around the very core of the earth. And feel the pulse of the earth as you're feeling the pulse of you. And now as you breathe, see, feel, imagine energy and nutrients traveling along those root systems, bringing Mother Earth energy with it until eventually you feel those nutrients and that Mother Earth energy seeping in through the soles of your feet. And from the soles of your feet, that energy fills up every inch, every nook and cranny of your physical body, your legs, your core area, your pelvis, your spine, your heart, your arms, all the way down to your fingertips and beyond your head, your neck, your throat. And then go ahead and see-feel. Imagine opening up the top of your head and drawing in expansive, spacious energy from the sky, the sun, the moon, the stars, and maybe even your very own personal soul star in the sky. And that comes in through the top of your head and down into your area around your brain, your eyes, your tongue, your throat, your neck, your heart, your arms to your fingertips, all the way down to the tips of your toes. And enjoy the feeling of the sky energy and the earth energy dancing inside of you. And now imagine that you could call in an ally, someone real or imagined living, or passed on animal, vegetable, mineral, and invite this entity to hold space for you and send energy to your heart and through your heart. And then from your heart down along your arms all the way to your fingertips. And take a moment and set an intention for the vibe that you want to create wherever you are bringing your voice today. One-on-one conversations, group conversations, podcasts, public speaking, TikTok videos, wherever you are navigating your world, creating your world, set an intention for what you would like to create with your voice and your presence. And then see, feel, imagine hugging the space that you're currently in, your car, your home, a stadium. Hugging everyone and everything in that space, in the energy of the intention that you set. And notice your body, your mind, your breath, your energy right here, right now, in this moment. And if you've closed your eyes, go ahead and open your eyes. Take in the space around you. And then let's end with one ohm sound.
