To begin.
Find a quiet and comfortable space where you can sit or lie down.
Take a moment to feel the surface beneath your body supporting you.
Allow your body to soften and melt into it.
Allow the muscles in your face to relax.
Feel your forehead and eyebrows soften.
Your cheeks and jaw release.
Feel the tension in your face start to drop away.
Drifting downwards with gravity.
Take a couple of slow,
Deep,
Relaxing breaths.
Thank you to this breath of yours,
A loyal and constant companion along the way.
As you inhale deeply,
Feel the warm,
Calm energy from your breath sweep through your body.
Softening any areas that are tight or tense.
As you exhale.
Let it all go.
Allow your inhalation to loosen.
And your exhalation release.
Any thoughts are slipping away.
You're breathing slow and steady.
Each inhalation relaxing you.
Each exhalation allowing you to sink deeper and deeper into a state of calm.
Now picture a special place that is either real or imaginary where you feel calm and comfortable,
Safe and relaxed.
A peaceful sanctuary where you want to be.
My special place is a serene forest.
Green,
Gentle,
And filled with the smell of pine needles.
Yours could be a tranquil beach,
A sunny meadow,
A house of worship,
Any place that brings you peace and calm.
Allow your peaceful sanctuary to become more and more vivid.
Pausing to sense the details around you.
What season is it?
What sounds do you hear?
How does the air feel on your skin?
As you rest in your peaceful sanctuary.
You see that there is a beam of healing light coming from above.
The beam of healing light starts to shimmer and you see that above it is a radiation machine.
You lie back to relax.
Pausing for a moment of stillness and take in the healing rays.
The healing light gently warms you and illuminates your powerful immune cells,
Making them brighten and shine.
The beam of healing light is activating your immune cells.
Helping them to recognize and eliminate.
Any chaotic cells that do not belong.
Your activated immune cells are wise and discerning,
Strong and capable.
And you sense them effectively doing their job.
The healing light is also softening sore,
Tense,
Or tight places and dissolving any discomfort.
You are receiving effective treatment that successfully goes exactly where it needs to go,
Doing exactly what it is meant to do.
Your body calm and comfortable,
Safe and relaxed.
The beam of healing light slowly fades away in your peaceful sanctuary Now you travel forward in time.
Picturing yourself after radiation,
Recovering quickly and efficiently.
Your immune system remains active as it regularly cleans your inner space.
You are safe and serene,
Relaxed and peaceful.
There is expansive room to feel delight,
Joy,
And wonder.
It is cancer's time to leave and be gone for good.
Before you take leave from your peaceful sanctuary.
You thank this special place for the healing it has brought you,
The wellness it supports.
You gently return to the room you were in,
Becoming aware again of the surface underneath your body.
And the breath that is rising and falling peacefully in your chest.
Know that you can return to your peaceful sanctuary at any time.
This healing light is always available to you.
Ready to help you feel calm and comfortable.
Safe and relaxed.
Gently open your eyes,
Carrying with you a sense of peace,
Confidence,
And trust in the healing journey ahead.
You
