Find a comfortable position,
And if you're willing,
Gently close your eyes.
Take a deep breath in,
And slowly exhale.
Allow your body to relax with each breath you take.
Imagine yourself in a place where you feel completely safe and at peace.
This could be a real place you've been to before.
It could even be a place you've created in your mind.
Maybe it's a cozy room,
A quiet beach,
A sunlit forest.
Anywhere that creates a feeling of security and is calming for you.
Look around your safe place.
Notice the colors,
The textures,
The light.
Now we'll use all your senses to explore the space.
So what do you hear?
It's gentle lapping of waves,
Leaves rustling,
Or maybe it's just silence,
Comforting silence.
What do you smell?
Maybe it's a fresh scent of pine or the salty sea air.
Maybe it's the aroma of your favorite comfort food.
What can you feel?
The warmth of sunlight on your skin,
Or the cool grass beneath your feet.
As you explore this safe place,
Feel a warm comforting light surrounding you.
This light represents protection,
Peace.
It gently wraps around you,
Creating a barrier that keeps all worries and anxieties away.
Breathe in this sense of safety.
Allow it to release any remaining tension,
Fear,
Or worry.
Know that you can return to this safe place whenever you need to.
You simply close your eyes,
Take a few deep breaths.
This place is always here for you,
A sanctuary of peace and safety.
