So finding yourself a restful,
Safe and calm space,
Close your eyes.
Take a deep breath and hold it for a few moments.
And now breathe out,
Letting go of all worries and concerns from the day.
Take another deep breath,
Hold it and breathe out.
Take one more deep breath and breathe out all your worries.
Now I want you to engage and tense your whole body just for a moment and then let it all go.
Feel your body totally relax and let go,
Relaxing the whole body.
Notice your toes and feel them relax.
Notice your feet and feel them relax.
Feel the muscles of your legs softening and calming.
Feel your thighs relax.
Notice your hips soften.
Your spine soften.
Allow your shoulders to release and relax.
The muscles in your arms soften and calm.
And right down to the tips of your fingers,
Relaxing even more now.
Letting go of all concerns of the day,
Feel the muscles in your neck relaxing.
As you notice your face,
Feel all the tiny muscles of your jaw relax.
The little muscles around your eyes and forehead relax.
Feel your whole body totally and utterly calm,
Totally and utterly relaxed.
Now just below you,
I want you to imagine yourself looking at a beautiful,
Lush green rainforest.
It's just stopped raining and the air feels warm and steamy.
You notice a staircase that takes you all the way down to the bottom of the rainforest.
As you look down at the stairs,
You notice they are made of hardwood.
In some places you see lush moss growing upon the side.
You take in the scents and sounds of the rainforest and feel instantly transported,
Feeling a sense of peace.
And somewhere in the distance you hear the sounds of a waterfall.
And in anticipation you decide to descend the twenty stairs below.
Counting backwards,
You take the twentieth step,
Placing your hand on the cool handrail.
Then taking the nineteenth and eighteenth step,
Feeling relaxed now.
Taking the seventeenth,
Sixteenth,
Fifteenth step,
Feeling more and more relaxed.
Take the fourteenth,
Thirteenth and twelfth step,
Feeling even more deeply relaxed.
Stepping onto eleventh,
Tenth,
Ninth,
Eighth and seventh step,
Feeling more and more relaxed.
Take the sixth,
Fifth and fourth step,
Almost at the bottom of the rainforest and feeling deeply relaxed.
And taking the third and second step,
Almost at the bottom,
You feel so relaxed as you take the first step,
Feeling deeply,
Deeply relaxed at the bottom of the rainforest.
And you look around at the beauty that surrounds you.
What do you see?
How do you feel?
What do you hear?
Do you still hear that sound of the waterfall?
You now notice a short path that leads to a cave.
You are intrigued by this cave and walk towards it with enthusiasm.
When you reach the entrance,
You realise from the way you feel that this is a very special cave.
You feel a wonderful sense of love and peace and know that you are safe to walk inside.
And as you do,
You are in awe of the sight that beholds you.
The entire cave is lined with beautiful purple amethyst crystals.
The walls,
The ceiling,
It's so beautiful as the crystals sparkle at every turn.
You stop for a moment and close your eyes,
Taking in the extraordinary and loving energy from the crystals.
Get a sense of feeling like you can achieve anything.
You feel confident,
Energised and empowered.
These crystals bring you a great joy and feeling of peace.
When you feel that you have finished absorbing the beautiful energy of the amethyst crystals,
You turn around and for the first time you notice one giant crystal that stands out from the rest.
The crystal is larger than you.
It is transparent and you recognise it as clear quartz crystal.
You notice a small hole in the roof of the cave.
And from this hole,
A beam of light shines down on top of this clear quartz crystal,
Making it shine and sparkle.
You feel drawn to this crystal and walk right up to it.
You touch it and it feels cool to the touch.
There is an electrifying energy that emanates from it and you know this crystal contains the wisdom of the universe.
When looking closer inside the crystal,
You see beautiful patterns and notice an image emerging.
It is the image of a beautiful woman.
Take a moment to imagine what she looks like.
Sensing her qualities.
Is she confident or loving,
Courageous,
Compassionate,
Fun loving or is she all of these things?
The image of the woman in the crystal now speaks to you and she says,
I am your inner goddess.
I am the feminine divine.
I am the beautiful,
Loving,
Compassionate person that is your true and authentic self.
You now ask the question that has been on your mind.
Perhaps one that has been on your mind for some time.
Can you await her answer?
Yes.
You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You Before you say goodbye to your inner goddess,
She has one more thing to say before she disappears.
She asks you to look down,
And as you do,
At the base of the beautiful quartz crystal you notice a scroll.
You pick the scroll up and open it,
And inside the scroll there is a special message just for you.
What does the message say?
Once you have read your message,
You become aware once more of the beautiful purple amethyst crystals that line the walls and ceiling of the cave.
You turn around and notice the light from the entrance,
And as you walk towards the entrance with scroll in hand,
You see once more the rainforest,
And at the end of the path,
Twenty steps which lead you back to the top of the forest.
You walk towards the staircase,
And once there you place your hand once more on the cool handrail,
And you climb the first,
Second and third step,
Feeling a little refreshed now.
You take the fifth,
Sixth and seventh steps feeling even more refreshed.
Eight,
Nine and ten,
Feeling more and more refreshed.
Eleven,
Twelve,
Thirteen,
Fourteen and fifteen,
More and more refreshed.
Sixteen,
Seventeen and eighteen,
Nineteen,
And finally the twentieth step,
Feeling refreshed,
Energized and aware of the room,
Noticing the noises that surround you,
And when you are ready,
You can gently open your eyes.
