Hello and welcome.
My name is Andrea Henkels.
I am a holistic healer,
Licensed acupuncturist,
And mind body coach.
Thank you so much for joining me here today for this creative visualization around the garden that is our mind.
So when you're ready,
I will have you sit or lie down,
Whatever is most comfortable for you.
And begin to focus on your breath.
And gently let your eyes close.
Breathing in and out.
Releasing any tension from your body.
Moving your shoulders away from your ears.
Letting your chest and abdomen expand and contract with each breath.
Becoming fully relaxed.
Feeling completely supported.
Knowing you are very safe right here,
Right now,
In this moment.
Feeling present.
And with each breath,
You feel yourself becoming more and more relaxed.
And now I want you to imagine that you can see inside your mind.
And as you look at your mind,
The place where all of your thoughts and memories live,
You see this little,
Cute,
Adorable gnome tending the garden that is your mind.
When you see him,
It makes you smile.
He has so much joy as he bops around.
And sees all the beautiful memories you have.
He waters them.
And before your very eyes,
You see these precious memories bloom and grow and become even more vibrant and colorful.
As he does this,
You feel the warmth,
Love,
And joy emanating from your heart.
And then you see this little,
Adorable gnome get out his rake.
And that's when you notice this little,
Adorable,
And that's when you notice there are some things in this garden of your mind that might be a little darker.
Some memories that are no longer worth holding on to.
Some thoughts are limiting beliefs that are no longer serving you.
And easily and swiftly,
And whistling while he works,
Your lovely garden gnome begins to pull these out by the root,
And collecting them in this wheelbarrow he has.
So he's skipping around,
Gathering anything that might not be serving you or is currently causing you pain.
And he is giddy as he puts these into his wheelbarrow.
And you notice there must be something special about this wheelbarrow,
Because as these things hit the wheelbarrow,
These memories and thoughts that aren't serving you,
They completely transform.
The second they hit the wheelbarrow,
They begin to swirl and dissolve,
And turn into this vibrant liquid gold.
And as he continues to garden,
You notice your spirit feels lighter and lighter.
Your heart feels more expansive.
And as he's finishing up with this weeding process,
You notice that your heart is more open.
Finishing up with this weeding process,
He turns and smiles at you.
And your eyes connect.
And you feel so much gratitude that this lovely little gnome is available to you to garden your mind whenever you want,
Whenever you need.
And you thank him,
And watch as his now full wheelbarrow,
Completely full of this beautiful liquid gold,
He pours it into a vat connected to a hose.
Connected to a hose.
And then uses this,
These transformed memories and thoughts,
To water new seeds that have been planted in your garden and are ready to grow.
And these new thoughts begin to sprout so easily and quickly.
These thoughts that serve you,
Empower you,
And remind you how worthy of everything you desire.
How worthy of everything you desire you are.
And now this garden of your mind is full of only the most beautiful things,
The most loving thoughts for yourself and for others.
And you just feel so good,
You feel so free,
You feel so light.
You have so much love for this garden of your mind and those who tend it.
So much love for yourself and for others.
And it's such a beautiful place to think and to live from.
You place a hand over your forehead,
Taking a deep breath in and out,
Sealing in all these new thoughts.
And then you place a hand over your heart,
Sealing in all these beautiful emotions that have been created from these thoughts.
And then you let both of your hands fall to your sides,
Palm up,
Ready to receive even more goodness from your mind and from life and from your heart.
You take a deep breath in gratitude that you gave yourself this space today.
And when you are ready,
You can open your eyes and go have an incredible,
Magical,
Joy-filled day.
I love you so much.
