Hello and welcome to Change Your Life in a Day meditations.

My name is Francesca Proudman and I'm a life and business coach here to help you live your best life.

I've helped thousands of people all over the world change their life for the better.

Today that person could well be you.

This meditation is all about connecting to your truth and receiving the wisdom and direction you need to live your best life.

You may wish to grab pen and paper before we begin in case you have any insights during or right after the meditation and please do not do this meditation if driving or operating machinery.

Making sure that your body is now well supported and comfortable,

I invite you to gently close your eyes and just allow your hands to rest by your side or on your lap or even on your stomach.

And let's begin by taking now a few slow deep breaths in through your nose all the way into your diaphragm,

Holding for a couple of seconds when you can't breathe in anymore and then exhaling gently through your mouth,

Releasing any tension at all in your body.

Take another deep breath in through the nose into your diaphragm,

Hold and exhale again through your mouth,

Letting any tension go completely,

Feeling the calmness beginning to wash over you.

And if any thoughts come into your mind,

That's fine,

Just let them move on out again.

Like clouds in the sky on a summer's day,

Just let them keep moving.

Breathing in again through your nose deep into the diaphragm,

Hold and breathe out through your mouth,

Feeling more and more relaxed and more present.

Now I will guide you through a countdown from 10 to 1 and with each number you will again feel ever more relaxed and ever more present.

10.

You are in a safe wonderful place and you are letting go of the world around you.

9.

Your body is becoming more and more relaxed with every breath.

8.

You're feeling safe and supported both physically and emotionally,

All is well.

7.

On every in-breath,

You breathe in peace and love.

6.

On every out-breath,

You release any worries you may have and let them go.

5.

Deeper and deeper,

Letting any thoughts just move on,

Allowing any distractions to just fade into the background.

4.

With each breath,

Your mind grows clearer and more peaceful.

3.

You are feeling more and more relaxed.

2.

Your mind is becoming still and you're feeling very present to the moment.

1.

You are now deeply relaxed and at one with yourself.

I'd like you now to imagine yourself standing at the edge of a beautiful,

Tranquil lake.

The water is calm and clear,

Reflecting the sky above.

The sun is shining gently on your face.

The air is fresh and you can feel a breeze flickering across your skin.

As you look out over the lake,

You notice a small boat gently bobbing along the shore,

Heading towards you.

As it comes closer,

You see a little flag at the back and your name's written on it.

It slows down just in front of you.

The boat has nobody in it.

You feel magnetically drawn to get in.

You are ready for a little adventure.

2.

You step into the boat,

Feeling the smooth wood beneath your feet,

And you make yourself comfortable,

Sitting amongst the beautiful cushions and blankets scattered around.

As you get comfortable,

The boat slowly starts drifting out into the lake,

And you feel incredible trust.

The water looks warm and inviting,

And as the boat floats and bobs gently away from the shore,

You begin to feel yourself relax even more deeply.

3.

Soon,

You notice the beauty surrounding you,

The peaceful ripples of the water,

The sound of birds singing in the distance,

And the expansive sky above.

You feel calm and at peace,

Knowing that this moment is a reflection of the calm and clarity that seeps deep within you at all times,

And it will guide you toward your dream life.

4.

As you continue floating along in the boat,

You begin to feel that sense of guidance,

As if you're being led toward something very important.

You look out at the scenery left and right,

A feeling of excitement arising within you.

You see how you are gently approaching a very small island with lush forest.

A light is shining beautifully from the shore,

As if welcoming you home.

5.

As you reach the island,

You step off the boat and walk towards the light that guides you to the most beautiful garden.

There is no doubt at all as to which way you should go.

You feel filled with clarity and courage and oneness.

Your future self is wise and empowered,

And you know exactly what steps to take.

6.

As you walk through this magical garden,

Full of colorful flowers and the scent of sweet blossoms,

There is a soft hum of energy in the air.

7.

You feel an overwhelming sense of calm and knowing.

You know that everything you need to create your dream life is already here within you.

Standing in this garden,

You take a breath and close your eyes to take in this very special place.

As you do so,

Pictures of your dream life start drifting into your mind.

What you're doing,

Where you're living,

The people you wish to be surrounded by,

The difference you wish to make,

People you love,

People you are loved by.

All your senses are activated.

It's as if you are there already,

Right here.

And then you ask yourself,

Whose wisdom could help you right now?

Who could make sure that you have clarity to get you to that real life that you wish to have?

Who could it be?

Somebody from the past or present?

Ancestors,

Perhaps?

Or a mentor?

Or perhaps one of the great masters?

As a smile starts to form on your face as you imagine these people and feel more and more immersed in this vision,

You become aware of soft noises in the garden.

Giggling,

Excited whispering,

Leaves rustling.

You feel completely safe and do not immediately open your eyes.

Eventually,

Things quiet again,

But you know you are no longer alone in the garden.

Slowly,

You open your eyes and there in front of you is each and every one of the people you just thought of.

Sitting calmly in a semicircle facing you.

You cannot believe your eyes.

Your heart is brimming with love.

They have all come here for me.

As you look across the group in wonderment,

You see a small child hiding in the background,

Giggling.

Your eyes stop gently and tears well up in your eyes as you notice and recognize it's your past self.

Take a moment now to see that beautiful soul,

So perfect and worthy.

And then ask them to come forward and sit with you.

In a moment,

You will have time to go around the group,

Welcoming advice on what you need to do to create your dream life.

You may receive words of wisdom,

A specific instruction,

A caution,

A three-point to-do list or even a symbol to take with you.

Take a moment now and decide what you may wish to ask.

And perhaps you will simply wish to sit in the energy of that person and receive a message that way.

Give each individual time to share their message with you and when you have understood the message,

Thank them and move on to the next person.

You have time now to have that conversation.

And when you have spoken to each person in the group,

Notice how you're surrounded by support and guidance.

Thank everyone for coming and sharing their wisdom with you.

Thank them from the bottom of your heart.

You can feel something has shifted.

You know exactly how to move forward in your life.

You feel lighter and excited again about being alive,

About this journey ahead.

You thank the group one more time and you say your goodbyes and start heading back to the boat.

As you get back to the shore where the sun is beaming brightly,

You see an elderly figure standing by the boat,

Ready to untie it and set you on your way.

You can't see their face but as you get to the boat and are ready to get in,

They turn to you and look deep into your eyes.

Thank you.

They say and embrace you with all their heart.

Thank you.

You're overwhelmed with love and as you look now back at this face and into those deep eyes,

You realize it is in fact your future self.

Your legs feel weak but they hold you tight.

Go and live this life well.

Live this life well and know you are always guided and supported.

You must just listen to the whispers of your soul.

I love you.

And with that,

You get into the boat and head back.

The boat drifts out to sea far over the lake and you wave until the island is just a speck in the distance and then you turn to face the direction you're moving in,

Facing forwards.

You feel rich.

You feel strong with a new sense of knowing,

A new sense of identity,

Authenticity.

You have found yourself and you know now you are not alone.

You never were and never will be.

As you return to the shore,

You take a deep breath in.

Wow.

The magnificence of this journey.

You exhale slowly,

Feeling more aligned than ever and empowered to create that dream life of yours.

Taking another deep breath in,

You now begin to bring your awareness back into the room where you started.

You may wish to move your fingers and your toes.

Take a few more deep breaths in and out.

As you come back into this room and you open your eyes,

Feeling refreshed,

Feeling clarity and feeling deeply connected all this lifetime.

Welcome back.
