Hello,
I am Tyrion.
The intention of this visual meditation is to bring about a feeling of lightness,
Peace,
And calm.
Tending to ourselves,
Our physical and emotional well-being is essential for growth.
Clarity and balance in our lives.
I have found that nature inspires its own healing.
So let's begin.
By finding a quiet place away from loud noise and distractions.
One which offers you a comfortable place in a chair or sitting on the floor.
Relax and place your hands gently on your legs and close your eyes.
Take a deep,
Calming breath in… filling your chest with air and slowly let it out.
Taking another deep breath,
Letting it flow in and then be released.
Take another moment and sink into your body.
Imagine standing before a large wooden garden gate that is slightly open.
Just enough to draw one in.
Reaching out,
You open it and step through.
The first thing you notice is the evening light filtering through deep red flowers.
Flowing over a nearby stone wall covered in deep green moss.
The flowers dance and move as a light warm breeze crosses your face.
A fountain in the center of the garden makes a comforting sound.
Soft green grass spreads out in front of you.
The fountain calls you to it.
As you approach,
A ray of light shines through the leaves.
Of a nearby tree.
The light hits the water.
Flowing in the fountain,
Which accentuates thousands of small,
Brightly colored stones in all shades of colors.
Emerald green.
Deep ocean blues,
Lavender purples,
Fire red,
And sun yellow.
You pick up two stones,
One for each hand.
Take a moment.
How do they feel?
Smooth and cool?
Warm and textured?
Does one feel lighter than the other?
You open your hands and look down,
Each stone holding a small universe of color.
Now,
With intention,
Take all the chaos.
Anxiety,
Worries,
And weight of the day in your body and feel it flowing out.
Leaving and entering the stones.
Your attention is now drawn to the sound of a nearby river flowing at the far end of the garden.
As you walk toward the river,
Your body feels relaxed and strong,
In balance with the world and nature all around.
A small,
Strong wooden dock is built into the river.
You walk to the end of the wooden dock,
Feeling the sturdy wood beneath your feet.
At the end,
You stop and look out over the calm water flowing by.
On the bottom of the river,
You observe small colored stones scattered under the smooth surface of the water.
It feels as if the river is calling to the stones in your hands.
Holding your hands above the water,
You watch each hand open,
The stones fall.
You wait to hear the sounds of them hitting the water.
And watch as they descend to the bottom.
Taking a last look at the river,
You turn with a lightness in your steps.
Coming back to the grassy bank of the river,
The sunlight just fading behind the far off mountains.
You can see their silhouette in the evening light.
Walking back past the fountain and through the gate surrounded by cascading flowers.
Knowing that this garden is always open to you.
A place to come and rest,
To take the colored stones from the fountain and release your physical and emotional stress and return them to the river.
Taking a last deep breath,
You now focus on the sounds that slowly bring you back.
To the moment Carrying a feeling of relaxation with you,
Of lightness.
Peace and calm.
Thank you.
