Great Mother Love Meditation – When life is too much, do this.
Watch this Great Mother Love video and meditation & surrender what’s weighing on your heart
I don’t know why we think when we grow up that we are supposed to be all strong, and have it all together. That when we become parents or responsible adults that we won’t get scared or confused. That when life is hard we should just buck up and push through, instead of doing what a little kid would do – have a little cry, wrap up in a blankie, and ask it’s mom to make it all better with a kiss, a hug and her magic wand.
Now that’s what I am talking about – Great Mother Love.
We all need it, yet most of us have no idea how to get it.
You need Great Mother Love in the times when life feels like it’s too much… like it’s is too hard… like there’s not enough… like the burden is just too heavy… like you might even want to give up and quit.
From a self-love perspective, these intense times are all good. It just means the shadow is coming up to be healed and transmuted into light. But from a human perspective, while you are wading through the shadow, no matter how much light is promised at the end of the tunnel, what you really want to do is crawl into bed, wrap the covers over you and come out when it’s all over?
But you can’t. People need things from you, you have to go to work, all that stuff that’s contributing to the stress in the first place!
So what can you crawl into and wrap yourself up with? Great Mother Love! Great Mother Love, when you tune into it and open to receive it is like receiving a big huge hug and kiss from the divine, or the best mother that you could ever imagine who has the power to take it all away and make it better… a place where you can just lay your head on her shoulder and let it all go… and SURRENDER all that you don’t want to carry any longer.
So how do you get to this Great Mother Love? Well that’s what this video, meditation and surrender stuff is all about.
Let’s alleviate some of this fear, doubt, stress, anxiety shall we and get you connected to Great Mother Love, shall we?
Follow these steps.
1. Watch the divine spark video I taped for you, which includes the Great Mother Love meditation
2. Give over to her what you want to surrender right now. The burden, responsibility, fear, anxiety, and be specific. Really give it to her and let her heart take the weight off your heart.
3. Post your SURRENDER PRAYER up here on the self-love blog “I SURRENDER… And I will post back and witness and super charge your prayer.
4. Open up to receive Great Mother Love from all the places and people it shows up through, including yourself. Great Mother Love feels like caring, nurturing, embracing, sweetness, nourishing, warm, unconditional, empty of all fear. Include it in your post by saying “I AM OPEN TO RECEIVING GREAT MOTHER LOVE!)
Here’s my surrender prayer to the Great Mother
I SURRENDER THE RESPONSIBILITY OF BEING THE ONE IN MY FAMILY THAT HAS TO FIGURE IT ALL OUT, TO BE THE ONE WHO MAKES SURE ITS ALL TAKEN CARE OF AND WE HAVE EVERYTHING WE NEED. I AM TIRED OF TAKING IT ALL ON AND I SURRENDER THIS BURDEN! TAKE IT GREAT MOTHER. I AM OPEN TO RECEIVING YOUR GREAT MOTHER LOVE.
Okay now your turn! Post on the self-love blog
Really let the energy flow and FEEL IT as you write it – remember it’s your surrender prayer, let it go and open up that heart to great mother love, let her divinity take on what your humanity could never hold.

Was just tearing, then weeping, then crying
loud out in the rain here…
Then came back, and noticed your email, opened,
listened, and MAGIC happened!
Suddenly all my inner tragedy fully disappeared,
i feel light, bright, happy, and in love again…
Am old enough to greatly understand, what and why’s
going something on within my both minds after i lost my
nearest and dearest 46 years long deeply in love with being…
It’s like my Angel-Guardian Gabriel sent that
outrageously devastating news, and two hours later
YOU, dear Christine, as a balsam for the soul…
There’s no right words to express my gratitude
to You, oh-wonderful-Magician-of-Love as You are!
Huge THANKS!
May Love Angels embrace You and Yours all the time.
Big warm Hug
Thank you love for the love – and so honored and touched that the Great Mother Love could come through me to you at just the right time. That is how She works. Seeing you in her embrace. in love. xo
I surrender my wanting of my longtime boyfriend who walked out 7 months ago because he was hurt by my insecurities. To surrender my fears and doubts about him. I surrender my doubts about the voice that comes from deep within to trust him, and that he is the one for me, and that he is changing too. Even though I know that there are many men out there, and we had our differences. I surrender my need for love from a man, even though I know that I am getting on well by myself. I surrender my fear that I will mess up again when I next bump into him, and my longing to be back in his arms. I am tired of struggling against my heart, tired of all these thoughts about him, tired of wondering if I am deluding myself thinking my thoughts are disguising as my intuition. I surrender this burden to you, Great Mother. Please take it, take it all. Let your wisdom reveal what my path in romance will be. I am open to receiving your love, Great Mother! =) Thank you very much. I love you.
Rosanna – I can FEEL your desire to surrender this addiction to this man’s love to the great mother — and i witness you willingness to do so. Let yourself fall into her arms and let HER LOVE soothe you, in a way that no man’s love ever could. This is when you will stop giving your love power away and start feeling loved no matter what. Then partnership is possible. In love, xoxo
I SURRENDER MY ANGER AND RAGE TOWARDS MEN BECAUSE THEY CANNOT MAKE ME HAPPY. I REALIZE NOW THAT I AM THE ONLY PERSON WHO CAN MAKE ME HAPPY AND WHOLE AND I TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY HAPPINESS! I LONG TO CONNECT WITH OTHERS FROM A DEEP LEVEL AND I’M TIRED OF KEEPING PEOPLE AWAY AND IN DISTANCE. GREAT MOTHER I NEED HELP! I AM OPEN TO RECEIVING GREAT MOTHER LOVE!

I surrender fears and anxiety about the future, and of “falling short” professionally and personally.

I am so tired of feeling hopeless & discouraged re: the deepest desires of my heart – that I am always behind everyone else/the curve -no matter how hard i try. i feel i must be less deserving & have very bad karma.
Of trying to please everyone & constant pressure & obstacles in the way.i have been struggling for years. I am tired of trying to get help & being willing to get the right support in place only to be told i don’t qualify . I am tired & ashamed of my financial dependence too . I wish I could get a break and had other more reliable trustworthy & caring support systems in place . I am tired of family & friends making fun of me and comparing me to others. I am tired of feeling isolated & lonely .
Thank you.
Serena love, witnessing all that you are sick and tired of feeling and experiencing and I invite you to surrender all the self judgement and anger behind these to the Great Mother – for it’s the energy behind all the realities that keep you trapped in them. Surrender these to her, forgive yourself, ask her help and forgiveness and let her embrace heal your heart so you may truly love yourself. with love, xoxo

Maria – witnessing your wise choice to surrender the responsibilties over to the Great Mother so that She may be there for you and your son. She really does take care of us when we let her in to our hearts and lives — seeing you receive the love and wisdom you need. Keep surrendering! in love xo
I prayed your prayer of surrender as I have been carrying a huge burden of responsibility for my families welfare. I started carrying this burden when I was a child and I lost my mother to narcissism & child abuse. I never had that caring, loving experience of a mother and so surrendering to the love of a Great Mother opened my heart to a deep longing I had forgotten. I want to make this a practise in my life to heal my broken heart.
Cynthia – love, surrounding you in this moment with the biggest embrace of love, for being willing to return your heart to the Great Mother – even if your earth mother wasn’t there for you, She is… and always was. And your choice to open your heart to this great love can heal so many things. Sending YOU MUCH LOVE> xo
I surrender the fear of not being able to invite clients to me and my practice.
I surrender the self-criticism for still needing people to appraise me, see me, compliment me.
I surrender the lack of self-trust that makes me doubt even when I’m right.
I surrender the burden of all the limitating beliefs I have about myself, that gets me to think I’m not able to create the life I want for myself.
I surrender the pain of not receiving the love and appreciation that I desire from some people around me.
Please, dear Great Mother, take all this burden away. I am open to receive your great love and support and wisdom !
Thank you, I love you.
Elisa – this is a beautiful prayer of surrender and I witness you love, in your self-love, to allow the Great Mother love to guide and embrace you. And take away the burden and replace it with all the support and love you need. xoxo

I am knowing that in your willingness to be vulnerable and surrender the need to be super woman strong that you are allowing the Great Mother Love to soothe, guide and comfort you on your journey. and that is beautiful. xoox
I SURRENDER my need to be in control. Things have happened recently that have made me realise that control is an illusion. The reality is that I am not even control of whether my next breath will come. I surrender my views of the way it is “supposed” to be and I lean into what is. I allow myself to fall into the arms of God, the Great Mother Love.
Susanna – witnesssing you love surrendering the need to control and in that choice, receiving such love from the divine who embraces you with Great Mother Love! xoxo

Dear Divine Mother, I surrender this great need to be loved by my children itis my fault that they don’t love me. I gave my love & attention to one child, who is now dead and now send love to them, but they don’t respond. It is too late to make up for what I didn’t do when they needed it. Please send me Divine Love. I am ready to receive Divine Love. Thank you! Lyn
Lyn dear heart, so witnessing the self judgement towards yourself and in that opening to receive love. we are all doing the best we can at the time. the Great Mother knows that. and i send your heart prayers that you know that too. with love. xo
I surrender my fear of being abandoned, of being rejected. I surrender the guilt I feel when I reject people first, before they reject me, thinking that I am protecting myself when actually I’m hurting myself. I am tired of the feeling of being shut up on a pattern of fear that doesn’t allow me to receive and to love unconditionally. I am tired of my fears control me and that they boycott the love that I deserve. I am open to receiving your Great Mother love.
Doly – witnessing you love surrendering the fear that keeps your heart from receiving love to the Great Mother, knowing that she is ALWAYS here to love you, so really there is nothing to risk. May love flow to you. xox
I also surrender my control. I accept I cannot control the situations in life, and I let them go. I surrender the need I feel to change situations I provoked with my fear. What is done is done and I surrender my overthinking in trying to get another opportunity. Take it Great Mother, and I am open to receive your unconditional love and your/my forgiveness for my mistakes.
Doly – witnessed, feeling the great mother just take this all from you, and with that you are free!!!! xoxo
Bless you Christine! I’m weeping at the moment and feel such ease as I surrender! Thank you for this meditation, I’m taking it all in.
I surrender the burden of uncertainty. I surrender my control to know it all, to take care of everything, pushing myself to always be one step ahead. I surrender the pain of seeing, feeling all of my potentials and capacities and not being able to live up to them yet. I surrender the need to always give more, do more, love more. I surrender feeling guilty that I’ve outgrown certain relationships, I surrender feeling guilty that I have need to let go of them. I surrender myself to Great Mother’s embrace. I’m allowing Her to take on this burden. I’m allowing to be Mohtered.
I’m open to receive Mother’s love, compassion, kindness and care!
Much Love
Sonja <3

I surrender my deep loneliness and lack of connection to others.
I surrender my grief and constant regrets at not making a good life for myself.
I surrender my self-loathing for doing work no one ever admits to doing.
I surrender my feelings of stupidity at not knowing how to get out of this loop.
I surrender my need for a “protector” to come rescue me…I’m an adult and should be able to figure out how to climb out of the hole I’ve dug (right)?
I surrender all this to the Great Mother (I see her as my sweet Amma)…please help me take on more light, less dark, and to see the world as amazing and unlimited.

I surrender to you, Great Mother, Divine Comforter, my worry and sadness about our broken world so sadly embittered by war and greed and unkindness…I surrender my regrets about opportunities I was too timid, too uncertain of myself to embrace. I surrender my damaged childhood, my many mistakes, my various heartbreaks, my desire to please even at great personal risk to my health & heart & creativity…I surrender, I surrender, I surrender…and open my heart to healing and joy and being enough, just as I stand, flaws and all, enough!

I will keep learning to love myself until I wean myself of this craving, until all the love I need comes from within =) Bless you, you're an angel.
Aww blessings receceived dear heart… and witnessing your YES to receiving the love of the Great Mother – xoxo
I surrender my fear that the love I feel for my soulmate (and his for me) will destroy our lives. I surrender my need to know and to control things. I surrender my worries for my children’s futures. I surrender my fear of financial problems, health issue, and a lack of direction. Let love be my direction and focus instead.
Cherie – seeing the Great Mothers arms wrap around you – let this all go — keep letting this all go — and allow yourself to move in the flow. xo
I do not trust nor love the God of my youth. (Catholic upbringing responsible for this). However, Christine, your timely and deeply heartfelt message here moved me to tears. It feels safe to surrender anything and everything to the Great Mother. Here goes: I surrender all the lies about myself that I believe to be true. Let me no longer gag and suffocate from self-hatred. Instead, I turn to the comforting arms and love of the Great Mother. I TOTALLY surrender all my sh—- thinking.
Maggie – from one recovered Catholic to another, I witness you falling into the arms of the great mother and having that GREAT MAMA LOVE reflect to you the truth that YOU ARE LOVED, you are magnificent and that all that negative self talk and self hatred can begin to end here. in love xo
Thank you for sharing this experience of Great Mother Love. I Have been so blocked up, literally unable to cry due to medication I take, and this meditation enabled me to have a much-needed cry. My actual mother has Alzheimers and I miss her support so much.
I surrender my self-hatred and loneliness, and open myself to receiving love and support form others and from the Great Mother.
Dot – SO witness you surrendering into the embrace of the Great Mother – may you give her all that pain and loneliness so she can soothe your beautiful heart back to its true state of pure love. xoxo
