Welcome to this guided visualization meditation.
This meditation aims to take you on a journey into your sacred sanctuary where you will be guided by reiki energy to gently release and relax into your peaceful sleep.
Begin by finding a comfortable position.
Let your body rest deeply whether you are lying down in bed or reclining somewhere quiet.
Allow your arms and legs to soften,
Your jaw to loosen and your eyes to gently close.
Take a deep breath in and slowly exhale.
Let yourself arrive fully into this moment.
Now take another deep breath in,
Fill your lungs completely and as you exhale,
Feel the weight of the day begin to melt away.
With each breath,
Your body is becoming lighter,
Calmer and more relaxed.
Now I'd like to invite you to imagine you're standing at the edge of a serene forest path.
The air is cool,
Fresh and filled with the scent of pine,
Earth and wildflowers.
Overhead,
Soft golden light filters through,
Wrapping you in a gentle embrace.
Visualize and feel into each step that you are taking.
Feel the solid ground beneath your feet supporting you.
The forest welcomes you.
It honors your presence and knows you.
Allow yourself to feel into the safety and support.
Bird songs echo softly through the trees and a breeze brushes against your skin,
Carrying the stress away.
The tension and worries that you may be carrying leaves with a gentle bust.
As you walk slowly,
Mindfully,
Knowing you are being guided towards something sacred.
Ahead of you,
You can see a soft glow.
It beckons you.
This is your sanctuary.
A place complete peace,
Restoration and deep sleep.
As you approach slowly,
You see it more clearly.
In this moment,
You may perhaps visualize a cozy cabin,
A garden of light,
A sacred temple or a hidden glade.
There are no rights or wrongs.
The safe,
Sacred space is your peaceful place.
A place that feels like home within.
You step inside or into this space and instantly feel warm energy spread through your chest.
You may visualize this energy as a round light beam,
A force field that protects your being.
Nothing can harm you here.
You're free to let go.
Take a moment to settle into the sanctuary.
Notice its colors,
Its texture,
Its scent.
Let yourself be wrapped in its loving presence.
Now from above you,
A gentle stream of Reiki energy begins to pour down.
It's warm,
Light,
Like golden water mixed with sunlight and love.
This healing energy flows gently over the top of your head,
Down your neck,
Your shoulders,
Washing away anything that no longer serves you.
Any worries,
Fear,
Tension,
Self-doubt,
It all simply melts away.
This energy travels down your arms,
Through your chest and back.
Down through your abdomen,
Your hips,
Your legs,
And out through the soles of your feet.
The earth lovingly receives all that you have released,
Transmuting them into light.
If you were to look at your being from outside,
You will see yourself glowing in golden white Reiki light.
And as the light becomes brighter,
You feel lighter,
Calmer,
And more at ease.
As if your being is floating and gently hovering in the air.
Now I'd like to invite you to bring your awareness to your crown,
Just above your head.
Visualize the sky opening to a vast star-filled night.
A gentle shower of iridescent stardust begins to fall over you.
Each speck of stardust sparkles in violet,
Silver,
Blue,
And rose pink.
The stardust drifts down slowly,
Showering and covering you in a blanket of cosmic peace.
Feel its shimmering touch seal you in a cocoon of Reiki light.
The stardust creates a protective energy around you.
It does not allow any negative energy to reach you.
Only love,
Safety,
And rest can penetrate and remain.
We will stay here for a few quiet moments to breathe and soak into this loving protective light.
As you rest here,
Feel your body becoming ever more deeply relaxed.
Your mind quiet.
Your heart at ease.
In this sanctuary of peace,
You are free.
Free to rest.
Free to let go.
Free to heal.
Before we finish,
Whisper or say to yourself,
I am safe.
I am held.
I am loved.
Allow yourself to release the day and drift deeper and deeper into peaceful,
Healing sleep.
The stardust will continue to fall over you throughout the night.
The Reiki energy will continue to protect you.
And you are completely at peace.
Sleep well.
Sleep deeply.
And when you wait,
You will feel well rested.
Thank you and good night.
