Are you ready to meditate with Kari?

To lay down and be still and quiet?

Try not to move so if you need to adjust your body pull your shoulders away from your neck lay in a position that's comfortable for you get all ready and then try and be still really really still take a nice big deep breath breathe in through your nose and breathe all the way down to your tummy and then take a big breath out take a big breath out this time when you breathe in see if you can breathe in even more air so breathe in and really really fill your tummy out as if it's a big balloon getting fuller and fuller and when you breathe out make a sound a sigh whatever kind of sound you want feels really good try it take a nice big deep breath in and then when you breathe out a nice big sigh do that two more times breathing in and breathing out breathing in and breathing out now just breathe your normal breathing close your eyes if you haven't done so already and start to use your imagination imagine that you're laying outside and you're looking up at the sky the sky is a beautiful blue it's bright bright blue and it has big white fluffy clouds in it imagine that in your mind but you have to have your eyes closed so close your eyes okay you have to use your mind and your imagination when your eyes are closed when you close your eyes you have this big black wide open space that you can use your imagination and imagine pictures there in your mind so imagine the sky is blue with big white clouds you can imagine you're laying down on the grass and you're staring up at the sky it's a nice day it's not too cold and not too warm it's just right the grass smells nice underneath your body it's all fresh and clean and it feels soft and warm and you're relaxing just staring up at the sky now in your mind imagine that there's a big giant balloon in the sky a really really big balloon and it happens to be your favorite color imagine that it's really really big and it starts to float down and as it gets closer to you you can see how big it is it's so big like as big as an helicopter or as big as a big giant aeroplane imagine it as big as that in your mind it's coming closer and closer and it's bright and shiny and it has a long string on it big long white string as if someone's let go of this giant balloon and for some reason it's just floating in the sky it's coming closer until it finally gets so it's right there and you can grab a hold of the string it's so close imagine that you have an idea and you tie the string around your waist nice and tight and the knot is very secure and it would never ever come undone it's the perfect knot and once you've tied it around your waist you're still laying down relaxing and all of a sudden the balloon starts to move towards the sky again at first you think oooh do I want to float up to the sky but then you think to yourself maybe this will be fun maybe this will be like being a bird in the sky flying an eagle or a raven you like the idea of that so you relax and as you relax your body softens and very very slowly starts to move away from the grass just a little inch at first a tiny little bit your legs lift off the ground your arms your body your head you start to feel weightless completely relaxed still staring up at the balloon and staring up at the sky and the clouds you start to float up just a little bit higher off the ground you like this feeling it feels as if you don't weight anything you're as light as a feather floating up towards the sky this feeling makes you relax even more you let your body just drop and melt you feel very very safe as the knot that you tied was super super tight and it will never ever open and let you go so you know you're safe and secure you relax deeper and deeper as you float higher and higher up towards the sky up past the trees occasionally you look down below and everything seems to be getting smaller and smaller and you float higher and higher you're so so relaxed feels like you're just floating through the air like a feather blowing in the wind the wind takes you just a little bit to the left and then sways you over to the right and as the balloon goes higher and higher you sway backwards forwards back and forth going higher and higher sometimes you sway side to side and you look just like one of those pendulums on a giant grandfather clock tick tock going back and forwards and side to side feeling lighter and lighter the higher you go up into the clouds so you're surrounded by the big white fluffy clouds you float even higher up over the clouds and when you look down it looks like you're floating over snowy mountains floating higher and higher feeling lighter and lighter so relaxed,

So sleepy and comfortable you feel very very safe it's quiet and peaceful this high up going higher even higher still your body is so so light so relaxed you start to just keep your eyes completely closed so the clouds go away the balloon goes away and everything goes away you allow yourself to start to just drift off into sweet dreams your body is so relaxed and comfortable this is easy so easy to just let yourself fall to sleep just let go let go let go and relax music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music music
