Beautiful,
You are so welcome to today's meditation.
And today we're going to be taking a journey inwards and we're going to be going on a visualization journey,
Deep,
Deep,
Deep into our heart center,
First of all,
But then we're also going to be going into our sacred forest.
So I'm going to invite you to get comfortable for your practice today.
This practice can be done sitting up or lying down,
Whichever you feel more comfortable with.
But as I invite you into your comfort,
Just relaxing,
Consciously just relaxing your body.
And I'm going to invite you to close your eyes.
And as you close your eyes,
Turning your attention inwards,
I'm going to invite you to take a long,
Slow,
Deep breath in through your nose and follow it all the way deep into your heart center.
And bringing your full awareness to your heart space,
Let's begin to practice heart focused breathing together,
Where we breathe in through our heart space,
Expanding our heart's energy.
And as we breathe out,
Releasing,
Letting go of any tension,
Worry,
Stress.
So we're breathing in the new,
Letting go of the old.
And as we do this,
We're continuing to consciously relax,
Arrive into our physical body.
So doing a check-in,
Relaxing your jaw,
Relaxing your shoulders,
Your arms,
Your hands,
Your abdomen,
Around your stomach area.
We can hold a lot of tension and stress here.
Relaxing your hips,
Your legs,
And your feet.
Visualizing a small,
Beautiful version of yourself sitting in the center of your heart.
When there's a crystalline staircase in the center of your heart,
I'm going to invite you to stand up and begin to walk down this crystal staircase.
And with each sacred step that you take,
You fall deeper and deeper into relaxation.
You're going deeper and deeper into your inner world,
And as you reach the end of the staircase,
In front of you is the most beautiful door you've ever seen.
It has this gorgeous gold handle,
It's so inviting,
And as you walk over,
You open the gold handle,
And you push the door open into the most magical,
Mystical,
Beautiful forest you've ever seen.
Taking off your shoes,
Stepping into the forest,
Onto the softest grass you've ever experienced,
Everything in this world seems brighter,
More alive,
More vivid.
And with each step that you take,
You feel more grounded,
More connected.
Each step brings you deeper and deeper into your own inner world.
And this is a place of safety.
This beautiful world we can visit at any time.
And we're going to work with the energy of Mother Oak today.
And if you look towards your left,
You will see a beautiful forest of ancient oak trees.
And there's a gorgeous path that goes right through the center of these oak trees,
And I'm going to invite you to make your way over to that path.
And as you get closer to the path,
You start noticing all the different sounds,
The birds that are singing,
The foxes peeking out,
The owl.
The forest seems so alive with all these different energies,
And you can hear them speaking to you in so many different ways.
And as you begin to walk through this forest,
I'm going to invite you to take a look around.
And there's one of these great oak trees that's beckoning you.
Take a look around and listen.
Listen for her call.
And as you hear her call,
Make your way over to her.
And initially just put your hand on the tree trunk as you begin to sync your energy with hers,
Your heartbeat aligning with her heartbeat,
And this beautiful energetic exchange.
There are no words needed for this exchange.
We can feel her incredible wisdom and her power.
She invites you to take a seat and invites you to place your back against her.
And as you look down on the ground,
There's the most perfect space where you just fit so perfectly and comfortably,
And you relax your body,
Place your back against hers,
And just relaxing your full body,
You begin to listen.
And I'm going to invite you to intuitively connect with her and just ask her,
Does she have a message for you today?
What would she love you to know?
What wisdom would she love to share with you?
And invite in your intuition in this space.
And I'm going to invite you into the listening space of silence,
Of stillness.
And be open to her messages coming in a variety of different ways,
Impulses,
Feelings,
Maybe it's even words,
Trusting yourself to sit,
Connect,
And listen in this space.
Mother Oak would love to tell you that there is an animal guide waiting for you here on this journey in the forest,
And she would like you to see what animal approaches you in the forest today.
And these animals can be anything from bears,
To birds,
To foxes,
To hawks,
To owls.
What animal comes forth for you today?
Trust your intuition.
Trust your intuition as the animal comes forth to you.
Connect with this animal's beautiful energy.
Thank the animal,
First of all,
For working with you.
And then ask,
What message do you have for me today?
And how can I serve?
How can I serve for the highest good of all?
And then listen.
We're going to allow our animal guide to walk us back towards the door,
But before we do,
I want you to just thank Mother Oak for her energy,
For her wisdom.
And she says to you,
Come back any time you need,
My dear,
My child.
You are always welcome here.
This is your home.
And as you begin to make your way through the path,
Notice how you feel.
Notice the difference from when you were walking into this path and how you're feeling walking out from this path.
As you feel the soft grass beneath your feet again and the warm glow of the sun in your face,
You notice the beautiful spring flowers,
So bright,
Full of color,
The birds singing.
You make your way over to the door and open that beautiful gold handle again.
You thank your animal guide.
You tell them you'll be back soon.
As you step inside the door,
Put on your shoes and begin to ascend the crystal staircase.
As you make your way back up the crystal staircase,
You'll be coming back fully present in your physical body.
I'm going to count from five to one.
And when I reach one,
We will gently open our eyes,
Giving ourselves a moment to transition from our practice.
Five,
Four,
Three,
Two,
And one.
Very gently opening your eyes,
Bringing small,
Slow movements into your fingers and your toes,
Stretching if you feel called,
And just giving yourself a moment to transition from your practice.
Thank you.
