Welcome to this guided meditation on your journey toward relaxation and tranquility.
Today we're going on a magical elevator ride.
A special celestial elevator which will first ground and center you on the bottom floor and then take you slowly floor by floor to the highest reaches of relaxation and peace.
As we begin,
Find a comfortable position either lying or sitting.
Slowly close your eyes and take a deep breath in through your nose and release it out through your mouth.
Feel the weight of your body against the support and feel it fall deeper and deeper against that surface.
Now picture yourself standing in the safest,
Most peaceful setting you can imagine.
Perhaps it's in a field with breezes gently blowing through the grass,
Or beside a babbling stream or on a beach at the edge of the sea,
Or maybe in a room that you remember as a child.
It can be anywhere you wish.
As you look around in this setting of your choosing,
This sanctuary,
This safe space,
You notice a bright sphere of the purest white light appear in front of you,
Just feet away,
Unlike anything you have ever seen before.
You are not startled or afraid because you know,
Somehow,
That this is divine energy.
Magical energy.
As you watch in calm amazement,
The sphere slowly gets larger and larger,
Expanding in every direction.
You can feel its warmth and calming energy as it pulsates.
Then in an instant it vanishes,
Leaving in its place a door to a celestial,
Otherworldly elevator.
As you marvel at how this can be,
The elevator calls to you and you slowly approach it.
The doors smoothly slide open,
Inviting you in.
As you step into this elevator,
Feel the cool,
Smooth,
Solid surface beneath your feet.
Observe the walls,
Which appear to be forged from some ancient metal,
Adorned with symbols and characters from antiquity that you do not understand,
But which you know were crafted by a divine hand.
The ceiling appears to be made of the clearest,
Purest quartz crystal,
Known as the Master Healer,
Which harmonizes the spiritual energy centers of all who are near it.
As this quartz energy helps center you from above,
You ground yourself,
Connecting with the Earth beneath you,
Feeling the continuity from Mother Earth up to the Divine.
Now let's prepare to take a two-stage breath,
Where you will take a deep breath in through your nose,
And just when you think your lungs are full,
Try to take in just a little bit more air with a second,
Short inhalation.
And as you do,
You will be filling your lungs with calm and peace and life-giving oxygen in the air that you inhale.
Let's give it a try.
Begin,
Inhale slowly through the nose,
Deeply,
Fill your lungs,
And when they're full,
Take one more short inhalation to take in just a bit more and further expand your lungs.
And now exhale slowly and fully,
Letting go of any tension or stress.
Let's try that once more.
Inhale through the nose,
Deeply,
Fully,
And now a quick second inhalation to further expand your lungs.
Good,
Good.
And now exhale slowly and completely.
And as you return to breathing naturally and comfortably,
You notice the elevator doors close,
And you feel a sense of security and safety.
This is your starting point,
A solid foundation for your journey.
With each floor we ascend,
You'll become more and more relaxed.
You gently press the button for the 10th floor,
And you hear the mechanism whir as the elevator slowly begins its ascent,
So smoothly as though it is floating on air.
As we pass the first floor,
You notice that your breathing becomes slower and more relaxed.
Gently roll your shoulders and let your arms fall naturally to their sides.
And now past the second floor,
Notice how your body feels.
Are there any areas of tension?
If so,
Imagine a warm,
Soothing golden light washing over those areas,
Melting away that tension.
Breathe deeply and let it go.
Now passing the third floor,
As we ascend,
Imagine your worries and anxieties floating away like balloons in the breeze.
Let them drift higher and higher until they're out of sight and out of mind.
On to the fourth floor,
Feel the weight of the day beginning to lift from your shoulders.
With each breath,
Let go of any lingering stress or negativity.
And now moving past the fifth floor,
Halfway to our destination.
Imagine yourself surrounded by a soft,
Comforting blanket of peace and tranquility.
Feel the warmth and security it provides.
And now the sixth floor.
Let your mind wander to a happy memory.
Picture the scene in detail,
Focusing on the sights,
The sounds,
The smells,
And the sensations.
You continue to breathe calmly and naturally as we approach the seventh floor.
Feel your body becoming heavier,
Pressing more firmly against the elevator floor.
Let go of any resistance and allow yourself to relax completely.
Now the eighth floor.
Imagine that your consciousness is a clear,
Still lake.
Any thoughts or disturbances are like ripples on the surface.
Watch them pass and return your focus to the stillness.
And now we're on the ninth floor.
You're almost there.
Feel a sense of healthy anticipation as we approach our destination.
We peacefully and gently reach the tenth floor.
The elevator doors slide open,
Revealing a breathtaking vista.
You step onto a white walkway that leads to a circular platform overlooking a celestial landscape.
You walk toward the platform as stars twinkle above you,
Planets orbit in the distance,
And a majestic full moon illuminates the entire scene.
In the center of the platform sits a beautiful crystal bench equipped with fluffy,
Billowy white pillows.
As you approach,
Run your hand along the edge and feel the cool,
Smooth surface of the crystal beneath your hands.
As you sit,
Notice how incredibly comfortable the bench is and how the pillows somehow embrace you.
It supports you perfectly,
Being custom made just for you,
And it allows you to relax even more deeply.
Take a deep breath in through your nose,
Hold for a few seconds,
And exhale slowly and fully,
Letting any remaining tension or stress float away into the starry night.
Now that you are utterly relaxed,
Look around at the breathtaking scenery.
Stars twinkle above,
Galaxies swirl in the distance,
Meteorites dance across the scene,
And the full moon shines brightly.
This magnificent celestial canvas surrounds you in every direction,
Above,
Below,
To your left and to your right.
You are at the center of this celestial point in time.
As you marvel at the beauty,
Breathe comfortably and let yourself be carried away by the beauty and tranquility of this magical place,
This gift.
As you sit in wonder,
You realize that you are completely and fully relaxed.
Every bit of tension is gone from your body.
Any stress,
Strife,
Or anxiety has dissolved from your mind and your consciousness.
Your one and only focus now is to enjoy your surroundings while you drift safely and protected off to a deep,
Peaceful,
Rejuvenating sleep.
As you remain comfortably positioned on the pillows of the crystal bench,
The energy of that crystal further centers you and aligns your energy for rest.
Continue to breathe,
Inhaling through the nose and exhaling through the mouth,
Comfortably and slowly.
With each breath,
Your body feels heavier and heavier as your muscles surrender to the sleep that beckons,
A sleep that will bring you peace,
Comfort,
And tranquility.
Your breaths become ever more shallow,
And your heart rate slows as it prepares for sleep,
And you are ready,
Ready to let go,
Ready to float off gently and completely into the restful realm of deep,
Relaxing sleep.
One more breath,
One more exhalation,
One more relaxation of your entire body,
And one more clearing of your mind and thoughts,
And now,
Sleep.
Know that you are safe,
You are protected,
And you are loved.
Sleep calmly,
Sleep peacefully,
And sweet dreams.
Good night.
