Welcome.
This meditation will guide you on a vivid sensory journey to meet your spirit guides.
Let yourself fully relax and trust this experience.
Open up your senses and allow every sound,
Every scent and every texture to bring this journey to life.
Your guides may appear in forms you recognise or in ways that may surprise you.
However they come,
Know they are here for you with love and purpose.
Let's begin.
Settle into a comfortable position.
Let your hands rest gently by your sides or in your lap.
Close your eyes and take a deep slow breath in.
Hold it for a moment.
And slowly exhale,
Releasing any tension.
Again,
Breathe in deeply,
Filling your lungs.
Hold for a moment.
And as you exhale,
Feel your body becoming heavier,
Sinking deeper and deeper into relaxation.
With every breath,
Feel yourself softening now,
Unwinding.
Now,
Imagine yourself standing at the edge of an ancient forest.
The air is cool and fresh,
Carrying the rich earthy scent of damp moss and fallen leaves.
Towering trees rise high above you.
Their canopies thick with deep green leaves that rustle softly in the breeze.
Sunlight filters through the branches,
Casting golden patterns that dance along the forest floor.
You hear the gentle chirping of distant birds,
The soft rustle of small creatures moving through the undergrowth and the whisper of wind weaving through the trees.
Under your feet,
The ground is soft and springy,
Like a carpet of pine needles,
Leaves and moss.
Take a deep breath in,
Letting the pure clean air fill your lungs.
Ahead of you stands an old wooden gate.
Its wood is dark and weathered.
You notice it's etched with ancient symbols,
Worn smooth by time.
You reach out and touch the wood.
It feels rough beneath your fingertips and cool from the shade of the forest.
As you gently push the gate open,
It creaks softly on its hinges.
The sound echoes through the stillness.
Step through the gate.
Notice how the air seems to shift,
Cooler,
Quieter,
Deeper.
You are safe here.
Begin walking slowly along the forest path.
The trail winds gently ahead,
Dappled sunlight guiding your way.
Each step is soft and steady.
The ground is cool beneath your feet.
Listen to the rhythmic crunch of leaves and twigs with every step you take.
Breathe in the scent of pine and the damp earth.
As you walk,
You come upon a set of ancient stone steps,
Spiralling downwards.
The stones are cool and smooth,
Covered in patches of soft green moss.
The gentle mist clings to the air here,
Cool against your skin.
Begin now to slowly descend the spiral staircase,
Step by step.
With each step,
You feel yourself sinking deeper and deeper into a calm stillness.
The light above grows softer,
The air cooler still.
At the bottom of the steps,
The path opens into a beautiful secret garden.
This garden feels untouched by time.
The air is thick with the scent of blooming flowers,
Jasmine,
Lavender,
Roses.
Vibrant petals in every colour imaginable sway gently in the breeze.
You hear the soft trickle of a nearby stream,
Water gliding over smooth stones.
The air hums now with a faint buzz of bees moving lazily from flower to flower.
Beneath your feet,
The grass is soft and cool,
Dotted with beautiful wildflowers.
At the far end of the garden,
Half hidden by thick flowering vines,
Stands a small stone cottage.
Its walls are warm and weathered,
The roof blanketed in soft green moss.
You notice smoke curling gently from the chimney,
Carrying the faint scent of burning cedar wood.
Warm light glows softly through the windows,
Flickering with the movement of fire inside.
You walk slowly toward the cottage,
The cool breeze brushing against your skin.
As you approach,
The wooden door opens slowly with a gentle creak,
As if it's inviting you in.
Step inside.
The air is warm here,
Wrapping around you like a soft blanket.
The scent of burning wood,
Dried herbs and aged books fills the space.
The fire crackles softly in the hearth,
Casting a warm glow that flickers with shadows across the stone walls.
The floor is covered with soft woven rugs,
And the shelves are lined with ancient books,
Glowing crystals and small curiosity objects.
There is a chair near the fire,
Its cushions soft and inviting.
You are safe here.
In this quiet space,
Your spirit guides are waiting.
Perhaps you sense a shift in the air,
A subtle presence forming.
Maybe they appear as a figure sitting quietly by the fire.
Perhaps even as an animal,
A being of light,
Or a gentle voice that seems to rise from within.
Whoever or whatever appears,
Trust that this is your guide.
Allow them to come forward now,
Slowly and naturally.
Take in every detail,
Their form,
Their energy,
Their expression.
They are here for you with love and understanding.
If you wish,
Take a moment to speak to them.
Ask for guidance,
Any questions you may have.
Listen closely to what they offer you.
I will leave you here to speak with them for a few minutes.
As you finish your conversation,
Your guide offers you a gift.
It might be a symbol,
A word or an object.
Hold it in your hands or your heart.
Feel its weight,
Its texture,
Its energy.
Trust that its meaning will become clear when the time is right.
Take a moment now to thank your guide for their presence and their wisdom.
And know that you can always return to this place whenever you need support.
But for now,
It's time to return.
So step gently out of the cottage,
Back into the garden.
Feel the cool grass beneath your feet again,
The warm sunlight on your skin.
Walk slowly back to the stone steps.
Begin to climb,
Feeling your body becoming lighter,
Your mind clearer and clearer with each step.
At the top,
Find the familiar forest path and walk slowly back toward the wooden gate.
Push it open and hear the gentle creak once more.
Step.
Feel the forest around you fading softly as you begin to return to this present moment.
Notice the weight of your body,
The rhythm of your breath.
Begin now to wiggle your fingers and toes.
Take a deep full breath in.
And slowly exhale.
When you're ready,
Gently open your eyes.
Your guides are always with you,
Quietly guiding and supporting you.
Trust the wisdom you receive today and carry it with you.
You are never alone on this path.
Thank you so much for taking this journey.
May you move forward with clarity,
Love,
Compassion and peace.
Namaste.
