Hello sweet one.
How wonderful that you are here listening to this meditation.
Maybe you had a busy day today or maybe it was a quiet one.
But now it is time to let everything go.
My name is Charlotte and I'll take you on a very special journey today.
Are you already lying comfortably in your bed?
Feel your pillow soft beneath your head.
Feel the blanket warm around your body.
Right now you don't have to do anything at all.
Just listen and come along on this journey in your imagination.
We're going to make a special journey.
A journey to a magical land.
A land where everything is made of sweets and treats.
Can you imagine that?
It's a land called the land of sweets.
If you're ready,
Close your eyes softly and take a slow calm breath in.
One more time,
Breathe in deeply through your nose and gently out through your mouth.
Feel how you are already becoming calmer.
Very good.
We are almost ready to begin.
Now,
Are you ready?
Here we go.
Imagine that right in front of you stands a magnificent gate.
It is huge with golden swirls as if it were made of chocolate shining in the sunlight.
Slowly,
The gate begins to open and as you step through,
You enter a wondrous world.
At once,
You can feel it.
This is a land unlike anything you have ever seen in your entire life.
The sky is soft and bright blue.
The clouds are fluffy and pink.
They are entirely made of cotton candy.
When the wind blows,
They drift slowly by and sometimes a little tuft breaks off,
Just like taking a bite of a sweet sugary cloud.
The sun glows warmly like a giant golden caramel painting the sky in shades of honey yellow.
You are now in the land of sweets.
Everything around you is made from the most delicious things you could possibly ever imagine.
Take a good look around you.
The streets are made of long winding licorice ribbons,
Soft yet strong beneath your feet.
To your left and right,
You see houses.
Their walls are made of gingerbread and their roofs are made of waffles and pancakes.
Some glisten with syrup,
Others smell of cinnamon and sugar.
Along the road grow tall,
Thick trees.
Their trunks are made of chocolate and from their branches dangle the sweetest treats you can ever dream of.
Colourful lollipops glittering in the sunlight.
Red and green gummy bear candies swaying gently.
And here and there,
A branch full of chocolate eggs just waiting to be tasted.
As you walk further,
You see marshmallow clouds floating through the sky.
Some are as big as pillows,
Others as small as small candies.
They bob gently up and down as if inviting you to float along with them.
And what's that in the distance?
A giant chocolate fountain.
The air smells warm and sweet,
Wrapping you in coziness.
Dark chocolate,
Milk chocolate,
Even white chocolate flows side by side,
Tumbling down in silky streams.
How wonderful it would be to dip a marshmallow cloud right into it.
Maybe you'll even discover your own favourite candy here.
Or a surprise waiting just for you.
Take your time to look around.
Everything is possible here.
Nothing is required.
It is your journey in this magical land.
Further ahead,
You hear a gentle splashing sound.
You follow it and come to a river of lemonade.
Not just ordinary lemonade,
But lemonade in all the colours of the rainbow.
Red like strawberries,
Yellow like bananas and lemons,
Green like apples and blue like blueberries.
Playful candy dolphins leap out of the water,
Sparkling blue.
And on the riverbanks,
Green gummy frogs croak cheerfully.
On the river float tiny boats made of cookies and fudge.
You step into one of the boats and feel it gently rocking beneath you.
The water tastes just like your favourite lemonade and the air smells sweet and fresh.
As you drift along,
You see hills of ice cream rising along the shore,
Soft and creamy.
Candy cane flowers grow here too,
Their colours twirling gently in the breeze.
And if you look very closely,
You'll notice that some flowers carry little candy hearts with words written on them,
Like love,
Friend and dream.
A little further on,
You hear a soft tinkling sound.
It comes from a tree whose leaves are made of thin colourful candy sheets that rustle gently.
When the wind blows through its branches,
It sounds like a happy little song.
Everything in the land of sweets feels peaceful,
Joyful and safe.
You don't have to do anything.
You may simply look and enjoy and dream.
After all that exploring,
You begin to feel a little tired.
And that's just perfect,
Because the land of sweets also has a place made for resting.
You walk to a meadow filled with soft marshmallows,
And in the middle of the meadow lies a great cosy bed,
Made entirely of fluffy cotton candy clouds.
It is so light and soft that you sink right into it.
Feel your legs become heavy,
Your arms resting quietly by your side.
Your belly and chest moving slowly with each calm breath.
And your head feels light,
Completely free.
You are safe.
You are cared for.
You are perfect,
Just as you are.
And as your eyes grow heavier and heavier,
You are free to drift away into sweet dreams.
Dream of the cotton candy clouds,
The lemonade fountains and the candy trees in the land of sweets.
And know that you can always return here,
Just by closing your eyes and imagining this place again.
Now,
Drift off into sleep in your cotton candy marshmallow bed.
Sleep well,
Sweet one.
