We are about to go on a magical journey together,
So get as comfortable as you possibly can.
Maybe grab a pillow,
A blanket,
Or a stuffed animal and just let your body sink into the surface that you are on.
Take in a nice slow breath in through your nose like you are smelling a flower and then let it out a nice long exhale like you are blowing out a birthday candle.
Let's try that one more time.
Taking in a nice slow inhale through your nose like you're smelling a flower and then letting out a nice long exhale from your mouth like you are blowing out birthday candles.
Resting your body and your mind now,
See if you can relax all of the muscles in your face.
Go ahead,
Relax those eyes,
Close them now if that feels good for you.
Relax your forehead,
Your cheeks,
Your jaw,
And even your chin.
Let this relaxation spread like a soft river all the way down your body.
Imagine now that you are walking down a long dirt road.
You feel the pebbles under your toes.
You walk slowly and up ahead you see that this dirt road is leading you into a forest.
The trees are tall and you watch as they sway in the wind.
There is a sign outside of this forest that says,
Welcome to the magic forest.
You smile with excitement as you walk closer and closer.
When you get inside you see magic all around you.
There are kind witches and wizards and fairies flying around everywhere.
What else do you see in this forest?
Take a look around.
You take a big breath in through your nose like you are breathing in the magic all around you and you let out a nice big exhale like you are getting rid of anything negative inside of your body.
You feel lit up by the magic everywhere around you.
One fairy with a blue dress begins to flutter around your head,
Flying around you quickly.
She is small but super fast.
She is holding a long magic wand in her hands.
She whispers in your ear that she can grant you one magic wish today.
What will you wish for?
What is something that you really,
Really want?
Do you want to help somebody that you love?
Do you want to be brave to try something new?
Whatever it is,
Whisper your wish in her ear.
All of a sudden,
With a wave of her long wand,
Your wish comes true.
Wow,
Magic really does exist.
She flutters away,
Giggling,
Leaving you feeling amazed and grateful.
You feel so much love and gratitude in your heart for this special day at the magic forest.
You keep those eyes closed and you start to imagine what you will do next time you come back here.
You imagine what you might see,
What wish you will make next time,
And how incredible this magic place is.
Let yourself drift off to sleep now,
Dreaming of the magic that awaits you next time you come to the magic forest.
