So now I'm going to take you through a meditation that is going to be a visualization of a tour through your own home. So if you can, Sit or lie in a comfortable position, Eyes gently closed if that feels right for you, And breathe. Begin to focus inward, Allowing the outside noises, Stresses to gently fade away and focus on your breath. Feel your weight drop down and feel your feet on the ground, Reaching down into the center of the earth. Think of that earth energy rising up through your body, Into your torso, Up along your back into the top of your head. Be aware of your breath coming in and going out, Filling you up with a sense of peace and stillness. And your breath again, Sit tall, Reaching up to the heavens and sky and feel that beautiful sky energy coming into your body. You feel calm, Centered, Grounded. If you feel any discomfort whatsoever, Adjust yourself now, But try and stay as still as possible as we go through this exercise. Take a deep breath in and let it go. Imagine your ideal living space. What does it look like? What is the vision for your home, Your family, Your life? How do you feel when you come home at the end of the day as you open the door and walk into your space? Do you feel a sense of calm and serenity as you walk through the door? Do you feel stress and anxiety when you think about what needs to be done? Are you overwhelmed by the clutter? Let's just take a tour now through your home. Imagine yourself walking in your front door. What do you see? Are there any smells there? And if you smell something, Is it pleasant, Unpleasant? What does the space tell you about your home, About yourself? Does it feel welcoming, Comforting? How does it make you feel? Is this the space where you want to spend time alone with family or perhaps with friends? Is this a positive and pleasant space? Let's keep moving on into the living room. Imagine yourself standing in the space. What do you see? Do you have piles of stuff in corners and you don't even know what's underneath them? What else do you see? How does it make you feel? Right now, What activities do you like to do in this room? Maybe you like to watch movies with your family or maybe you like to read, Write, Maybe do crafts. How do you make this space for yourself and those activities? How would you like this space to feel? How would you like it to look? If we continue on into the kitchen, What do you see here? How does it feel to be in this room? What kind of smells are here? Are there great food smells wafting from the room? What's inside of your cupboards, Your fridge? Do you have expired or rotting food? Are your counters so full that there is no space to prepare food so that you have to eat out most evenings? What does this say about you and your family? What kind of food do you put into your body and how well do you care for yourself? Do you like to cook? Do you like to eat healthy food? Do you eat at your counter, In front of the TV, Or while you're on the computer? Do you take time to eat at a table? How would you like your kitchen to look? What activities do you see yourself doing in your kitchen? Would you like to entertain more, Maybe eat healthier foods? How well do you nourish yourself? Let's keep going and move on into the bedroom. What is your bedroom like? Do you walk in and feel instant comfort? Is it an inviting space? Are there some great smells here? Is this a place for rest and relaxation after a long day? Do you climb in your bed and say, Oh, Sweet bed? Do you have great sleeps here and wake up feeling refreshed, Ready to take on the day? Is this a sacred space for you? Is there beauty and love here? What are the activities you would like to be doing in here that you are not doing? What do you want to make space for in your life? Take another deep breath in and let it out. Through the gathering of this visualization, You've experienced different spaces in your home, What they feel like, And what you want them to feel like. You know the smells that come from them, The ones that you like, And the ones that you don't like. You can see now the spaces and how you want them to be and the activities that you want to do in them. And with this positive visualization of how you want to see, Feel, And be in your home, I want to encourage you to come back now into your body, Feeling the weight of your feet on the floor, Connected down into the earth, Still sitting up tall along your torso and back and feeling the energy coming down into your head. Relax your breathing here, Just normal. If you can, Bow your head slowly and open your eyes. Raise your head up. You have completed your meditation.
