Hello and welcome.
Take a moment and make yourself comfortable.
See that we're lying down whatever feels right for you.
When you're ready gently close your eyes.
Let's take a deep breath and exhale.
Let's try one more time.
Take a deep breath.
A little out.
In case you're struggling with anxiety or worry a lot,
You can use this time for a little self-care.
Anxiety is a common experience.
When the anxious part of you shows up you can witness it with compassion.
It is not who you are.
It is a part of you that might be feeling scared or overwhelmed.
Do your best not to blend with it.
You can work on changing anxiety to a better experience.
Like changing it to a feeling of safety.
Feeling safe is the opposite of anxiety.
I now invite you to take a moment and imagine feeling safe as a paint color.
Choose any color you wish.
Let the color you're imagining represent feeling of safety for you.
Take your time and imagine your color of safety.
Now imagine you are in a safe creative space with your chosen paint color.
In this space you have a blank canvas along with a paintbrush.
Now let's use your brush and paint the canvas with your color of safety.
It is okay to have fun with this practice.
Imagine painting every inch of your canvas.
When you are done painting step back and look at your masterpiece of safety.
Take a deep breath and gently exhale as you're looking at your creative work.
Feel free to appreciate your work.
Anytime you need a feeling of safety return to your inner art studio.
There's always a paint,
A brush and a canvas ready for you to create more art.
The art of creating a feeling of safety is now one of your talents.
Let this talent help you feel relaxed,
Creative and supported.
And now one more time bring your awareness back to your breathing.
As this practice is ending may you always be happy,
Healthy and prosper.
When you're ready gently open your eyes.
Thank you for doing this practice.
Be well.
