Welcome.
In today's healing session,
We will go on a walk in the mountains of Mallorca,
Spain.
The Sierra de Tramuntana is a stunning picturesque mountain range that goes along the northwest coast of Mallorca.
This spectacular Mediterranean mountain range is an agricultural landscape scattered with a multitude of olive and almond trees,
Oranges,
Tomatoes,
And vines.
Throughout the mountain range are vertical landscapes where you can find unexpected cliffs and tall,
Narrow stone houses with traditional wooden shutters,
All painted in green.
Fall in love,
As I did,
With the enchantment of these mountains.
So go ahead and make yourself comfortable for today's practice.
Make sure your surroundings are peaceful and quiet and that you are in a place where you won't be disturbed.
So once you have settled in,
Gently close your eyes.
Now let's take a couple of deep,
Soothing breaths.
Breathing in through the nose and breathing out through the mouth.
So taking a long,
Deep breath in,
Inhaling calming and soothing feelings into your mind and your body.
And with your out breath,
Expelling all that you wish to release.
Just letting go of all that has been weighing you down with every breath.
Allowing your mind to become quiet.
Simply focusing on your body as it continues to relax deep into your space.
Allowing your muscles to soften and become loose.
You are becoming unbound from any tension.
Breathing in deeply and breathing out slowly.
Simply allowing your mind to explore the relaxation flowing through your body.
All you need to think about right now is the peacefulness of this moment.
And as you continue to breathe,
Notice how the breath makes your body feel.
Observe the gentle rise and fall of your belly and your chest.
Notice how your chest moves in synchronization.
Your body and breath working in perfect harmony together.
And each breath you take brings you closer to feelings of peace,
Feelings of calm.
Imagine all the tension from within you is being gradually carried away from you,
Bringing you closer,
A completely comfortable sense of inner peace.
Now allow your breath to become natural.
Just allow it to be soft and easy,
Flowing in and out of your body with no effort.
And as you bring your breath back to its soothing natural rhythm,
Imagine you are standing in the middle of a mountain range.
There are flowers and trees growing from the cracks in the large gray rock.
The surroundings of this place are just breathtaking.
And far in the distance,
You hear the gentle murmur of ocean waves gently crashing against the shore.
And as you inhale,
You get a subtle hint of this sea air passing through your nostrils.
It makes you feel very peaceful and relaxed.
The view before you looks like the most perfect picture.
All the mountains,
The ocean in the distance,
The luscious green treetop that are gently swaying in the mountain breeze,
The birds,
The birds and all the wildlife,
The earthy and soothing colors that surround you.
Nothing can compare to this incredible view.
Enjoy this moment and simply admire the scenery.
And as you continue to breathe in the fresh mountain air,
You reach into your pocket and take out a rock.
Feeling confused,
You hold it out in the light and realize what this rock is.
This rock is something that you have been worrying about today.
Something that has been weighing you down.
So bring to mind anything that has been troubling you all day and see it existing in the presence of this rock.
As you look down at the ground before you,
You notice a small gap between the rocks.
The gap is the exact same size and shape of the rock that you are holding.
You kneel down and place the rock into the gap.
It fits perfectly,
Just like a key.
As you stand back and observe the rock,
It seems like you have returned it back to where it belonged.
You feel a sense of relief wash over your mind and your body as if these worries had never existed.
You smile,
Feeling so much lighter as you enjoy this moment of relief.
With the faint sound of waves in the distance.
And you begin to descend the mountain,
Following a small path leading you to the beach below.
And as you continue your journey down the mountain,
You listen to the chorus of birds filling the air with their peaceful melodies,
As if they were cheering you on.
And suddenly,
There is a sound that really draws you in.
And it is the sound of a drumming woodpecker.
You follow the sound as you continue to make your way down the path,
Looking for the woodpecker up in the trees.
And you finally spot the beautiful bird,
Hammering its beak against a hollow tree.
You stop for a moment and observe.
The woodpecker has a small black feathered body with white patches all over and a red crest on their head,
As if they are wearing a small red hat.
And it continues to drum against the tree,
And it continues to drum against the tree,
Rapidly and rhythmically,
Until it finds another tree to drum on,
Flying away.
You smile and admire the wildlife on this path.
Now walking along the path,
You have finally reached an opening,
Revealing the beach.
The waves are still very gentle,
But the sound is so much more vibrant now.
You continue to walk until you approach the water's edge.
The energy of the waves feels soothing and comforting.
You kneel down and dip your hand into the water,
Allowing yourself to experience a cool and refreshing sensation on such a warm day.
As you bring your hand back to your body,
Yet again you notice something in your pocket.
You reach inside your pocket and find another stone.
You hold it up and recognize it is another heavy stone,
Carrying all your worries and concerns.
As you hold it in your hand,
It feels heavy and tiresome.
Why have you been holding this heaviness in your mind for so long?
You imagine this large rock in front of you,
Feeling more and more peaceful,
Knowing that now that you have found this rock,
You have the option to let it go.
You know that this rock will no longer trouble you.
Now as you feel a gentle breeze roll by,
You see the stone begin to decrease in size.
It is becoming smaller and smaller until it shrinks down to a small pebble before eroding into only a few grains of sand that remain in your palm.
You tilt your hand and allow these grains to fall into the water,
Never ever to be seen again.
You feel another sense of relief take over your mind and your body.
As you listen to the gentle crashing of the waves,
And feeling so much more lighter and free,
You decide to lie back on the sand,
And closing your eyes,
Allowing the sea air to fill your lungs,
You listen to the waves and the breeze.
You give yourself full permission to embrace the calm feeling of this place and the inner tranquility it has allowed you to experience.
Rest here,
Knowing that this place is always here for you,
Waiting for you to return whenever you wish.
So enjoy these next few minutes of total serenity,
Knowing that this calming place has been created from the power of your mind,
And this power can be used to release any thoughts of stress or worry that you have been carrying.
Gently now starting to deepen your breath,
Coming back,
Embracing and thanking and thanking the beauty of your surroundings as they continue to make you feel more peaceful throughout your day.
And as this practice,
This healing session come to an end,
You may stay here for as long as you wish,
Or you can slowly begin to come back to your body,
Wiggling your toes and your fingers,
Taking in a nice big stretch,
Moving your head from side to side,
Side to side.
And when you are ready,
Open your eyes.
