We are never alone! Also in times of social distancing, being separated from our loved ones or grief, we can create our own mental space - a space where we feel the warmth and love of the people who are not physically present at this moment. This meditation is designed to make you reconnect with the people who are dear to you. I invite you to let you of what's possible and create a safe space for love and kindness.

Welcome to this meditation that is designed to make you reconnect with the people you love.

For this meditation I invite you to think of your own imaginary special guest.

This imaginary special guest is a person you trust,

A person who is dear to you,

Perhaps a person you miss,

A person you love.

I invite you to have this special guest all the time in your mind at your side.

Once you've chosen your very special guest,

I invite you to close your eyes.

With your trusted companion at your side,

You go out for a walk.

You feel relaxed,

Light.

And on your walk a bit further up,

You can see a house.

And there is no doubt this is the house you're going to.

The house looks lovely and bright.

And together with your companion you walk towards the house.

Once you're close to the house,

You see three people standing in front of the house and they're all waving at you.

But you look closely,

You recognize those people,

And these are three people who are very dear to you.

Those people warmly greet you,

Perhaps with a hug,

Perhaps with a kiss,

A smile.

And you look at their faces,

And you just feel warm being close to them.

Those people invite you and your trusted companion to go inside the house.

And once inside you look around,

And you see the house is beautiful.

The house is cozy,

Nicely decorated.

You feel at home.

You look around and everywhere you look in the house are people you know,

People you love,

People you've missed,

People you haven't seen for quite some time.

And everybody who looks in your direction greets you with a beautiful smile.

Your trusted companion is always at your side,

And all of a sudden someone at your left hand side attracts your attention.

At the window on your left hand side there's two very cozy chairs,

And in those chairs are two people who seem to be in a happy conversation.

You walk towards them and once you're a bit closer of course you recognize straight away who those two people are.

And once they catch sight of you,

They stop chatting,

They smile.

They stand up from their chair and they're so pleased to see you.

They warmly greet you just as they've always greeted you.

Perhaps with a hug,

A smile,

A kiss,

And you feel close to them.

You look at their faces,

Their beautiful smile,

And all of a sudden someone taps you on the shoulder,

And you turn around and again there's somebody you've missed so much.

This person is standing right in front of you and greets you.

This closeness makes you feel warm inside,

Makes you feel loved,

And with your trusted companion at your side you walk around in the house.

Just look around.

Everywhere you go you meet people you recognize,

People you love dearly.

Some of them you only seldom see.

Some of them are your dearest friends.

Some people you do not know so well.

Perhaps the person who always greets you in the street with a smile,

Somebody from the neighborhood.

But everywhere you look people smile and people are happy to see you.

And you are happy to see them.

Together with your trusted companion you go inside the kitchen and there's a beautiful atmosphere in the kitchen.

A few people are laughing,

And once they see you they invite you in.

It's those people who always on each occasion like to stand in the kitchen,

Make the kitchen cozy,

They're all there.

They warmly greet you with a hug,

Perhaps a kiss,

And just being with them makes you feel warm.

It makes you feel welcome and loved,

And it makes you feel at home.

You leave the kitchen together with your trusted companion and right in front of you stands a person you love so dearly.

This is a person who is really important to you.

This person comes closer and greets you with a warm hug.

And it's in this closeness that you feel right,

That you feel how much you mean to this person and how much this person means to you.

No words are needed.

The entire truth of love is in this greeting.

The person takes your hand and places a small gift in your hand,

Something small.

You look at the gift and you are filled with love,

Filled with gratitude.

And it's this small gift that represents all the people who are dear to you,

All the people you love.

You close your hand around the gift.

You smile at the person in front of you.

You look at your trusted companion who has never left your side.

It's time to go.

And it feels fine to go because you know that you can always return to this house and meet the people who are important to you and the people you love.

You look around one more time in the house and those people who look at you,

They give you a smile.

There's somebody who blows you a kiss.

And then together with your companion you leave the house.

Into the light,

Your light.

And with the gift in your hand you know you can always go back to the people you love.

You're filled with gratitude.

You're filled with love and warmth.

And you feel light.

And may you be happy.

And may you be healthy.

And may you be at peace.

A lovely heartwarming meditation that brought me close again to my three grandchildren and daughter all of whom I haven’t seen for 6 years due to being alienated by my daughter 😞 My dad was also there who had a stroke 2 years ago which damaged his speech and lives in Florida 😞 my partner who passed away 2 years ago and my uncle who passed away in December were there also 🙂

I like this, but felt that for me it would have been better to meet one or two special people and spend time with them rather than have a houseful.
