Are you ready?
Then settle back and let your attention drift to that space behind your eyes.
See yourself standing at the water's edge on a beach.
Feel the coolness of the wet sand,
The water ebbing over your feet.
Watch the play of sunlight on the water.
Turn now and look along the beach to where the sand meets a cliff.
Halfway up the cliff is an entrance to a cave.
Walk along the water's edge now towards the cliff.
Listen to the sounds you make as you move through the shallows.
Feel the water flowing over your feet and around your ankles.
Listen to any sounds of birds or the breeze or the waves.
The cave calls to you.
Focus on the cave entrance and you can see a bridge,
A bridge between you and the cave.
Step now onto the bridge and walk towards the cave.
When you get there,
Step off the bridge and onto the plateau at the cave's entrance.
As you turn and look back out over the beach,
The bridge dissolves.
Turn back to the cave.
There is a light within its depths,
But it feels safe and it's welcoming.
Move into the cave.
Feel the soft sand under your feet.
Become aware of the softer light on the walls,
On the walls of crystal,
How the light catches the facets.
Touch the walls.
Feel the smoothness as you walk towards the light.
The cave opens into a wider cavern.
The light is shining down from an opening in the roof.
It shines onto a seat of crystal.
Draped on the seat is a cape,
A cape made of feathers of crystal.
It glitters and shine.
Pick it up.
You are surprised when you feel its lightness,
Its softness,
Its warmth.
Drape it over your shoulders and around you.
And sit on the crystal seat in the path of light.
Feel the energy of the crystal rise through you.
Feel the light of the universe upon your head.
And relax as it flows into you and mixes with the energy of the crystal into every cell of your body,
Relaxing you.
Float in the stream it creates.
A stream of peace,
Silence and relaxation.
Gentle,
Soft,
Warm.
Hold yourself in the space.
Now ask yourself,
What is it that brings me joy?
Just listen and watch.
You may get pictures,
You may get words,
You may just get a feeling.
Let the answers flow unattached.
Just notice.
Be aware.
Then feel that faint spark.
Feel the joy as it grows and grows within you.
Let each cell be filled with the emotion,
The lightness,
The happiness,
The uplifting spirit of joy,
Like a bubble bursting within you.
Immerse yourself in it.
Immerse yourself into the feeling until you are filled.
Now like a pebble dropped into the water,
Watch each moment of joy spread out like a ripple from you.
Watch it flow out into the cave,
Out beyond the cave,
Out into the world,
Into the universe.
Feel the joy grow.
Feel it and see it join the ripples of joy from others and grow until there is nothing but joy.
You are floating in joy.
Hold the feeling within you.
Immerse yourself in it.
Hold the feeling as you remove the cape and replace it on the crystal seat.
As you retrace your steps to the cave entrance,
Hold it within you.
Notice the brilliance of the cave walls,
The softness of the sand under your feet.
And at the entrance,
The brilliance of the sky,
The brightness of the sand,
The sparkle of the sea.
See it with joy.
The bridge between the cave and sand is now a path of light.
Step onto the path.
As you return to the beach,
The path of light folds and dissolves behind you.
Notice your heightened awareness of your feet on the wet sand,
The movement of the water,
The light on the waves,
The sounds,
The smells,
The feel you make your way back along the beach to where you began.
Bring back with you the feeling of joy and keep it with you in all aspects of your life.
Namaste.
