Begin by finding a comfortable position.
Settle into your seat.
Sink into the floor.
Feel the weight of your body against the floor,
Your bum,
Your legs,
Or your back.
Just drop in and feel yourself against the earth,
Hugging the earth.
Feel your legs rooting into the planet like a tree,
Letting go of any tension or stress that you may be holding in your face,
In your shoulders,
Your back.
Just relax and be aware of what is.
What does it feel like?
Take a few deep breaths to get started.
With your nose or with your mouth,
It's okay.
Just breathe deeply.
Now visualize a small ball of light in the center of your chest,
Just behind your breastbone.
This light can be any color that resonates with you,
Such as white,
Gold,
Or pink.
As you inhale,
Imagine this ball of light growing brighter and expanding to slowly fill your entire body,
Starting at your chest,
Slowly radiating outwards towards your arms,
Your hands,
Your bum,
Legs,
Feet,
And head.
Feel this light filling every cell of your body,
Bringing warmth and healing to any areas of tension or discomfort.
As you exhale,
Imagine this light filling the room that you are in and then spreading out into the surrounding neighborhood or city.
Imagine this light bringing peace and healing to all those who are nearby.
Picture this light flooding your body with love,
Compassion,
And wisdom.
Feel the light within your body nourishing you with peace,
Wonder,
And awe.
Now visualize someone you love and care for deeply and imagine them experiencing a moment of pure happiness and joy.
You can imagine the details of this moment,
The surroundings,
The sounds,
And the emotions that they are feeling.
Maybe this person is smiling,
Utterly blissful in bed.
Maybe they are dancing wildly at a party.
Maybe they are about to eat their favorite meal with friends.
Or maybe they are swimming in the ocean or walking by themselves in the forest.
Just imagine them smiling in absolute,
Utter joy and contentment,
Doing whatever you think they would enjoy most fully.
Once you have a clear image of this moment in your mind,
Begin to send out that light inside of you,
That positive energy,
Loving kindness to that person.
Imagine this light leaving your body and traveling through the distance to reach your loved one.
See this light enveloping them,
Enhancing their joy and ensuring their happiness.
Visualize this love and positivity flowing freely from you to them.
Consider them receiving this energy and smiling,
Deepening their joy even more.
Now visualize someone who has deeply hurt you,
Someone who has caused you pain,
Someone you want to forgive.
Notice the feelings that arise,
Allowing them to be present without judgment.
Now visualize this person also in a moment of profound and sincere joy and happiness.
They too are capable of experiencing joy,
Laughter,
And peace.
Really take a moment to see them in this light.
Maybe they are dancing,
Laughing,
Sleeping,
Or cuddling,
Or eating.
Whatever it is,
Imagine them at their happiest.
Imagine them feeling profound gratitude and joy and presence.
When you're ready,
Send out that same bright light of loving energy towards them.
Visualize it as a wave of forgiveness washing over both of you,
Cleansing the heart and cleansing the hurt,
And leaving only understanding and compassion.
See this light enveloping them,
Bringing them peace and your forgiveness.
Know that offering them the light of your forgiveness is magnifying your own light,
Filling you with a deeper light.
Your gift to them is as much a gift to yourself.
Remember that darkness cannot drive out darkness.
Only light can do that.
Now expand the energy even further.
Imagine you're a light reaching out beyond the boundaries of your body,
Beyond the city,
Beyond the country.
Feel the unity of that light of love,
Forgiveness,
And acceptance.
See your light enveloping the whole world,
Touching every living creature,
Every blade of grass,
Every mountain peak,
Every wave of the ocean.
Let your light envelop all of it.
Now extend your light beyond the earth,
Out into the solar system,
Bathing the moon,
The sun,
The planets,
And the asteroids in your warm globe.
Identify it all.
Feel it all.
Keep expanding this light out even further into the cosmos.
See it touching distant stars,
Galaxies,
And every corner of our known universe.
Now imagine this light,
Your light,
Stretching further,
Reaching out into the unknowable and the ineffable,
Into the something that is everything.
Extend your light to places that don't even exist,
To all the places that don't even exist,
Into the unfathomable limits of infinity that extend beyond space,
Beyond time,
And beyond causality.
This is your light.
This is what you are capable of.
Remember you cannot be the light if you hold others in darkness.
Now slowly begin to draw your expansive light back,
Back through the cosmos,
Through the solar system,
Through the earth,
And finally back into your body.
Feel the accumulated energy and peace within you,
And carry this feeling with you as you slowly return to your physical surroundings.
Remember that this light is always within you,
And you can radiate it any time you wish.
When you are ready,
Gently open your eyes and take a deep breath.
