Welcome to this meditation.
I would like to invite you to find a comfortable position where your body can fully relax.
Allow yourself to settle.
Adjust your blanket,
Pillow or clothing if needed.
And when you're ready.
Please gently close your eyes.
Take a slow,
Easy breath in.
And a gentle breath out.
And again.
Breathing in.
And breathing out Allow your body to soften.
Allow your mind to begin to slow down.
For these next few moments,
There's nowhere you need to be.
There's nothing you need to achieve.
And there's nothing you need to fix.
Simply allow yourself to rest.
Bring to mind.
A gentle intention.
Perhaps it could be,
I welcome calm and ease.
My body knows balance.
Or maybe.
.
.
I move through this season with peace and grace.
Repeat your intention silently three times.
Bring awareness to your right hand thumb.
Your index finger.
Your middle finger.
Your ring finger.
And your little finger.
The palm of your hand.
The back of your hand.
Your wrist.
Your forearm.
Your elbow.
Your upper arm.
Your shoulder.
The right side of your body.
You're hit.
You're fine.
Your knee.
You cough.
Your ankle.
Your foot.
Your big toe.
Your second toe.
Your third toe.
Your fourth toe.
Your little toe.
And then we move to the left side of your body your thumb.
Your index finger Your middle finger.
Your ring finger.
And your little finger.
The palm of your hand.
The back of your hand.
Your wrists.
Your forearm.
Your elbow.
Your upper arm.
Your shoulder.
You're left with the waste.
You're hip.
Your thigh.
Your knees.
Your cough.
Your ankle Your foot.
Your big toe.
Your second toe.
Your third toe.
Your fourth toe.
And your little toe.
And now I would like you to bring your awareness to the back of your body.
Into the front of your body.
And then all of your body.
Together And now move your attention to your whole body resting.
You're dead!
And now I'd like you to bring your awareness to your breath.
Imagine each breath in as cool,
Refreshing air.
Gentle.
Comfortable.
And calming.
And as you breathe out Imagine releasing heat.
Releasing tension.
Releasing irritation.
Releasing restlessness.
Breathing in coolness.
And breathing out anything that no longer serves you.
Breathing in peace.
And breathing out effort Imagine yourself standing beside a beautiful shoreline at dusk.
The sun has already set.
The sky is painted in soft shades of blue,
Silver and lavender.
The air feels fresh and comfortable.
A gentle breeze brushes against your skin.
Cool.
Refreshing.
And comforting.
You begin to walk slowly along the shoreline.
The sand beneath your feet feels soft.
The rhythm of the waves is steady.
Calm.
Peaceful.
Predictable.
Each wave arrives.
And then gently returns to the sea.
Over.
And over.
Again.
Allow your breathing to follow the rhythm of the water.
Easy.
Natural.
And effortlessly.
Now notice a beautiful full moon rising above the water.
Its silver light stretches across the surface of the sea.
The moonlight touches the top of your head.
Your forehead.
Your eyes.
You Jewel.
Your throat.
And your shoulders.
Every area it touches begins to soften.
To relax.
And cool.
The moonlight flows through your chest.
Your heart.
Your abdomen.
Your pelvis.
Your hips.
Your legs.
And your feet.
A soothing silver light.
Is surrounding your entire body.
Cooling.
Call me.
And balancing.
Imagine that this moonlight carries exactly what your body needs.
Ease.
Comfort.
Restoration.
And harmony.
Your body receives it effortlessly.
Now imagine sitting beside a clear mountain stream.
The water is crystal clear.
Fresh and pure.
It flows gently over smooth stones.
Creating a soft and peaceful sound.
You dip your hands into the cool water.
Feeling refreshed.
You splash the water onto your face.
And your shoulders.
And your chest.
Every drop bringing comfort.
Every drop,
Washing away tension.
Every drop carrying away stress and irritation.
The stream continues flowing.
Effortlessly.
And steady.
You realize that life too continues to flow.
You do not need to force it.
You do not need to control every moment.
You can trust the flow.
Now imagine that your entire body is surrounded by a gentle cocoon of cool silver light.
You are completely comfortable.
Completely safe.
Completely supported.
Any feelings of heat.
Agitation.
Frustration.
Or restlessness.
Simply dissolve into this light.
Like mist disappearing into the morning air.
Your body becomes lighter.
Your mind becomes quieter.
Your heart becomes calmer.
Feel yourself resting in stillness.
Resting in balance.
Resting in peace.
Return now to your intention.
Repeat it silently three times.
Allow it to settle deeply within your mind and body.
Bring awareness back to your breath.
Notice the surface beneath you.
Notice the room around you.
Begin to gently move your fingers and your toes.
Perhaps stretch if it feels comfortable.
Take your time.
Carry this sense of coolness,
Calm and balance with you.
And when you're ready Gently open your eyes.
Your practice is complete.
Until next time.
