Hi my love,

Welcome to this holy meditation,

A journey through color,

Now repeat this breathing pattern twice,

So inhaling through your nose for 4,

Holding it for 2 and exhaling for 6,

Do it at your own pace,

There is no rush,

Let's do it one more time,

Inhaling,

Hold it and as you exhale make an audible sound,

Let it all go,

Relax,

Allow your shoulders to soften,

Let your jaw relax,

Feel the ground beneath you supporting your body completely,

Now imagine it is early morning in spring,

The air is fresh,

A soft golden sunrise spreads across the sky,

The light is warm but so gentle,

You are standing in an open courtyard,

Around you are bowls filled with vibrant colors,

Crimson red,

Sunset orange,

Yellow,

Leafy green,

Sky blue,

Violet,

Each color glows softly in this beautiful morning light,

Feel a sense of anticipation and joyful possibility,

Take one slow breath in and exhale and feel the newness of this day,

Now pick a pinch of red powder,

Red color,

As you release it into the air,

It forms a soft cloud around you,

Warm and radiant,

The color red surrounds you like a gentle aura,

It fills you with strength,

Courage and vital prana,

Life force energy,

Feel this red light entering your body through your breath,

With each inhale say,

I welcome energy and with each exhale repeat,

I release fatigue and tiredness,

Now stay here in this red light for a few breaths,

Next imagine bright yellow rising around you,

Like sunlight is made visible,

Yellow is a color of happiness,

Of laughter,

Of self-belief,

See the yellow powder lightly touching your forehead,

Awakening clarity and confidence,

Silently repeat to yourself,

I am enough,

I shine without fear,

Let the yellow glow expand from your heart outward,

Be in this yellow energy for a couple of breaths,

Next is the color blue,

Blue is all about peace and depth,

A cool blue mist now gently settles around you,

It feels calming,

Like standing near still water,

This blue light washes away your overthinking,

Your stress,

Any restlessness that you might be feeling in your body,

Your breathing becomes slower,

With each breath repeat,

I am calm,

I am steady,

I am here,

I am calm,

I am steady,

I am here,

Your mind becomes clear like an open sky,

Stay with this blue energy for a couple of breaths,

Now green rises softly from the earth beneath your feet,

The color green represents healing,

Growth,

New beginnings and renewal,

See green light filling your chest and heart space,

Any heaviness in your body simply dissolves with this green light,

Now whisper to yourself,

I am growing,

I am open to new possibilities and beginnings,

Now stay in this green light for a couple of breaths,

Next imagine all colors swirling gently together around you,

It is looking so colorful and so harmonious,

The red strength,

The yellow joy,

The blue peace,

The green renewal,

They blend into a radiant white golden light and this white golden light represents balance,

You are not just one emotion,

You are a whole complete spectrum,

Now rest in this light for a few quiet breaths now,

As you are resting imagine a small safe ceremonial fire before you,

You can hear the crackling of the fire,

Gently place into this fire any fears,

Any regrets,

Any worries,

Any limiting beliefs that you might be having and watch it all dissolve into the light,

Now say it out loud,

I release what no longer serves me,

I release what no longer serves me,

I release what no longer serves me,

The colors slowly settle into your skin like blessings,

Your body is feeling so warm,

Your mind is feeling so open and your heart it is feeling so light,

Let's take three deep breaths in,

Now gently bring awareness back to the room,

Wiggle your fingers and toes and when you are ready open your eyes,

Carry this spectrum of colors and light within you,

Life is very colorful,

You just have to open our eyes to see those colors,

Bye my love.
