Hello my friend,
This is Juliana.
And I hope that no matter where you are in the world today,
That this guided meditation finds you well.
I invite you to settle into a comfortable position.
Either lying down or seated.
Please let your eyes close or soften your gaze downward.
And let's begin.
I invite you to breathe in slowly.
And let it go.
Picture the very first light of morning.
Pale gold spreading across the horizon,
Quiet and unhurried.
That same quiet is here,
In this room,
In this moment.
Now I invite you to breathe in again.
And imagine you're drawing that soft morning light into your chest,
Filling you from the inside.
Now imagine yourself standing in a garden at sunrise.
You notice the dew resting on the leaves.
The air is cool and fresh against your skin.
In this garden,
Each flower represents something you're grateful for.
I invite you to walk slowly.
Amongst them.
Now here's one flower.
It represents your body,
This vessel that carried you through the night and into today.
Notice its color,
Its shape.
Let a quiet thank you rise up as you look at it.
Now here's another flower.
It represents someone you love.
Picture their face as clearly as you can.
Feel the warmth of that flower as sunlight touches its petals.
Now one more flower.
This one represents a simple comfort in your life.
A roof over your head,
A nice warm drink,
A quiet morning like this one.
Watch it open slowly,
Like it's greeting the day alongside you.
Now take a moment to imagine the whole garden all together,
Full,
Alive,
Entirely yours.
Now as we transition to the sunrise,
Imagine it fully breaking over the horizon,
Light spilling across everything it touches.
Imagine that same light entering you with each breath in,
Warming your chest,
Your shoulders,
And settling into your hands.
With each exhale,
Imagine any tension or worry drifting away like mist burning off in the morning sun.
And now remember.
You are exactly where you need to be at this moment.
This day has not yet been written.
It is wide open,
Like the sky above your garden.
Before you leave the garden,
I invite you to choose one flower to carry with you.
One thing you're especially grateful for today.
Hold its image in your mind.
Now imagining tucking this flower gently into your pocket.
Something that you can return to.
Anytime today just by remembering this moment.
Now I invite you to take one final deep breath and picture the light of the sunrise settling softly into your heart,
Staying with you as you go.
So they bring your awareness back to the room.
Of the surface beneath you.
Wiggle your fingers,
Your toes.
And when you're ready.
Open your eyes and carry the garden's light with you.
Into the day.
Thank you for being here with me.
I invite you to return again tomorrow for another meditation and remember to be kind and gentle to yourself.
Thank you and take good care.
