This is a guided meditation for forgiveness.
It would be delightful to allow yourself the relaxation that's needed in order for you to change things in your life that you desire.
And complete relaxation is impossible when you hold grudges.
Sometimes it's hard to even imagine forgiving those who have wronged you.
But this is a necessary step in the progression of personal achievement.
So let's begin by saying I am ready to take the steps necessary toward becoming the best version of myself.
It may seem daunting to forgive people and instances of your past that hurt you,
But it's actually very easy.
So let's do some relaxation techniques that will open us into a state of forgiveness.
Notice how your body feels right now.
Notice any places that feel pleasant.
It could be as small as the tip of your nose or a much larger area.
Just feel these sensations of goodness and allow for them to expand.
Perhaps these areas of nice sensations can communicate with those places in your body that feel stuck.
Just observe how your body reacts when you allow pleasant feelings to communicate with the ones that feel stuck.
Do the nice sensations hold the grudge against the areas of not so nice sensations?
No.
They simply hold space and communicate with openness how to let go.
Allow for more pleasant feelings to enter into your body now through the power of your breath.
Breathe in easily and consciously knowing that with each inhale you oxygenate your system and send goodness through your entirety.
And again inhale goodness and exhale into an even more relaxed state.
Inhale supportive sensations and exhale into relaxation.
Inhale deeply the force of good and exhale into relaxation.
Continue this method with me for five more good breaths.
See how easy this is coming to you?
You are a natural at communicating with areas of tension thus changing their very structure and frequency and converting them into a relaxed state.
Ok,
You are doing so very well.
Let's continue with our new found relaxed state to a place of forgiveness.
This is a very important opportunity.
It will aid you in progressing towards personal achievement in all aspects of your life.
So visualize you are in a beautiful garden on a mild day with fluffy clouds rolling by in the sky and the sun periodically warming your skin and nourishing the plants in this garden.
As you admire the beauty here the way the leaves of the vegetation are caressed by the wind.
There are many colors of flowers throughout the garden and their fragrance is sweet and welcoming.
You look down to see a small footpath through some flowering shrubs and it's an inviting and mysterious path.
So go down this way.
As you curve around the beauty of this garden you inhale the fresh oxygen that these plants produce.
You feel very pleasant and relaxed.
As you round the corner a small bench made of wood comes into view and you see the person you most need to forgive is sitting there.
They have been waiting for you because this is a very important encounter.
You sit down beside them because this place is very safe and there are some things that need to be said to this person.
With bravery and courage look them directly into their eyes and say you hurt me and I have suffered for too long because of this burden I carry in the form of a grudge towards you.
I forgive you.
I forgive you not to help you but to better myself.
I forgive you and you will not enter my thoughts any longer.
I forgive you because forgiveness leads to openness in all aspects of my life.
You notice the darkness that was once in their eyes begins to lighten and for a while they do not say a word.
Then the silence is broken.
They say simply to you I will leave you alone now and you will not be tormented by the thought of me any more.
Take it up from the beautiful wooden bench and walk into the depths of a nearby wooded forest.
You watch as their figure grows smaller into the distance until you no longer see them.
Never once did they turn and look back your way.
Good.
Very good.
This was a very important meeting today in this beautiful garden.
And as you breathe in new fresh air you feel twice as light as you did before.
That's because a huge weight has been lifted now that the person you needed to forgive is no longer sitting within your secret garden.
They have moved on and so have you.
When you rise from your meditation at your own pace you will notice you are eager and ready to take the steps needed towards personal achievement.
