We welcome ourselves to this moment.
We call ourselves from the past and future and connect with ourselves here in this moment,
In this space and time.
Beginning with the breath,
Breathe in slowly and deeply,
Filling your body with life,
Peace and relaxation.
And breathe out slowly and intentionally,
Releasing any tension,
Stress or obstacles that might interfere with your work today.
Again breathe in slowly and deeply,
Filling your body with peace and wisdom,
Just feeling that relaxation moving through you.
And breathe out slowly and gently with a deeper level of relaxation as you simply allow your breath to just continue naturally and feel the effectiveness of my words.
Notice the top of your head and feel a peaceful,
Calm,
Wonderfully warm light beginning to fill your body.
As it continues it becomes a deep wave of relaxation in whatever color or feeling that you experience it.
You feel it move down behind your eyelids,
Your eyes,
Your cheeks,
Face and jaw.
You feel it move towards the back of your head and down over your throat.
It increases and warms.
It goes down to the base of your spine allowing you to relax and release and just let go as it goes deeper and deeper still.
It feels so wonderful and good.
The light moves across your chest and shoulders,
Down the arms and through your fingertips.
You might feel a light tingle or warmth and that is a good sign that the tension is leaving your body and you're becoming more and more relaxed.
Light travels slowly down your hips,
Legs and out your toes,
Leaving you feeling completely relaxed and calm.
You become aware of the points where your body touches the surface you're resting on.
You feel the sensation of your feet and the connection with the support.
You allow your feet to gently sink into the surface and allow it to support your feet and you feel so good and supported.
Now you pay attention to your backside where you make contact with the support you're resting on.
You just relax into it,
Allow yourself to gently sink into it.
Allow it to support you.
It is safe and you are supported here and you feel so wonderfully relaxed and comfortable.
You begin at the top of a spiral staircase with ten steps.
It is dark and quiet.
You are completely safe as you begin your descent down to a peaceful place.
I'll count down from ten on each step and as you go you feel more deeply relaxed on every step.
Ten.
Nine.
Relaxing deeper and deeper.
Eight.
Seven.
Feeling an even deeper change.
Six.
Five.
Trusting yourself and the process.
Four.
Going even deeper now.
Three.
Two.
And one.
You are now in a safe,
Comfortable,
Peaceful place.
This place is where your heart,
Mind and soul connect fully with one another.
Think of how wonderful and comfortable this place is.
Be aware of the things you see.
The sounds that you hear.
Any lovely smells or sensations that you have here in this wonderful,
Peaceful place.
You feel opened up to love and to learning about yourself here.
And comfortable with the process of growing stronger and healthier.
You feel safe and relaxed here.
Take a seat comfortably in the middle of your peaceful place and you simply listen.
As you listen,
You can hear a still,
Small voice speaking with you.
This voice is a familiar one and it comforts you and you feel completely safe and relaxed.
A warm,
Gold light surrounds your body and it grows stronger with every breath.
And only positive thoughts and feelings fill you.
And as you sit here,
You can connect easily with your spirit.
What does your spirit look like?
It might be a favorite color or just a feeling that you're certain is there.
Ask your spirit whatever you feel you need to ask.
Ask it of your spirit knowing that the answer may not come right away,
But it will come.
Take some time connecting with your loving,
Eternal,
Higher power.
As you now take a deep,
Refreshing breath,
You know that you can connect with your spirit as easily as you can take this breath.
You express gratitude for your spirit and for it connecting with you in this wonderful way.
You find another spiral staircase,
At the top of which is this present world.
I'm going to count to ten on each step and at ten you will feel yourself become more present and join with me completely.
One.
Two.
Three,
Letting any scenes or emotions fade to the background.
Four.
Five.
Six,
Feeling yourself returning and making a small movement.
Seven.
Eight.
Nine.
And ten.
Feeling totally safe and comfortable,
You allow yourself to become fully aware of this place,
Slowly opening your eyes.
And now we are ready to begin today's work.
