Lovely to have you with me.
Now let's get ourselves comfortable shall we?
Find yourself somewhere really cosy.
You might want to lie down or curl up or snuggle under a blanket.
Just take a moment to get yourself really truly comfortable.
And when you're ready let your eyes just gently close.
Take a big slow breath in through your little nose and breathe all the way out through your mouth like you're blowing out a candle very slowly almost like your birthday.
And let's do one more of those breaths big breath in and all the way out.
You're safe here there's nothing to do just to be here.
Now let's help your body go all soft and sleepy.
Imagine the most beautiful warm golden light sitting just above the top of your head.
It's the colour of sunshine and it's the warmest cosiest thing you've ever felt.
It makes you so happy.
Slowly it begins to move down over your head over your forehead and your eyes and your cheeks and your mouth.
Everything it touches goes soft and warm and wonderfully heavy and sleepy.
Down through your neck now your shoulders just let them relax a little more.
Down through your arms all the way to your fingertips maybe you feel a little tingle as the warmth arrives there.
Down through your chest and your tummy and your tummy is gently rising and falling as you breathe.
Your body is doing that all by itself just to take care of you.
All the way down now through your legs down to your feet and the tips of your toes.
Your whole body is glowing and warm and soft like a little light inside a lantern.
Now in your imagination just like a little dream I'd like you to picture the most beautiful path.
Maybe it goes through a meadow where the grass is long and soft and full of flowers in every colour.
Maybe it winds through an enchanted forest where the sunlight comes down through the leaves in long golden strips and everything smells like earth and green and magic.
Or maybe it runs along a beach where the sand is warm and soft and you hear the sound of the sea and other children giggling in the distance.
This is your path wherever you are and it's perfect.
Begin to walk along the path now and just feel the ground beneath your feet.
Hear the sounds all around you,
Birdsong or a breeze through the trees or the gentle lap of water or giggling in the distance.
Everything here is peaceful and happy.
Everything here is safe.
And as you walk you begin to see something just a little way ahead.
It's a bench,
A beautiful bench in the most perfect spot and the perfect size for you just beneath a big beautiful tree whose branches spread out wide like arms.
And as you get closer you notice something on the bench.
It looks like a wonderful gift.
It's wrapped so beautifully in paper that seems to shimmer a little tied with the softest ribbon.
It's absolutely beautiful and hanging from that ribbon is a label.
You turn the label over and you see in the most wonderful handwriting your name on it.
Now you sit down and get yourself really comfortable.
This is important business.
You pick the present up.
It feels warm in your hands and just that little bit magical.
What's inside?
It feels like it's been waiting here just for you for a long time and that's because it has.
Very slowly you begin to unwrap this gift.
You pull on the ribbons and they gently fall away and the paper opens softly almost by itself.
And inside,
Nestled in something as soft as cloud,
Is a small folded note.
You pick up the note so carefully and unfold it.
And there,
Written just for you in that same beautiful handwriting,
Is a message.
The words are just for you,
For nobody else.
As you look at the piece of paper,
You hear the words being read out to you.
And here's what they say.
You are the most incredible and special being.
Your life is going to be an incredibly beautiful journey.
You are safe and loved always.
And you can always find peace within your heart.
You are always being watched over and supported when you feel sad.
Always know that I am here for you.
I love you.
And you have every permission to be happy and joyful and live a wonderful,
Wonderful life.
Love from the divine universe.
Perhaps you haven't heard these words very often in your life,
And yet here they are.
You take a moment to think about what this means.
You are loved.
You are supported.
You're allowed to be happy and joyful.
You're allowed to have a wonderful,
Wonderful life.
How exciting.
And this message is yours to keep.
You can come back to it whenever you like.
It will always be here,
On this bench,
In this beautiful place,
Waiting for you.
All you have to do to be here is close your eyes and dream your way here.
And then when it feels right to do so,
You fold the note and just hold it to your heart for a moment.
And you look around.
The place looks even more beautiful than it did when you arrived.
The beautiful path,
The trees,
The light.
This perfect,
Safe,
Magical place.
And remember,
You can always come back here,
Whenever you like.
Whenever you wish to feel safe or loved or just very,
Very peaceful.
This place is for you.
It will always be here.
Now,
Very slowly,
Begin to make your way back along the path.
You may be skipping now.
You feel light and happy.
The golden warmth is still with you.
The message still held close to your heart.
And slowly you take a nice,
Big,
Deep breath.
And you notice your body again.
The weight of you,
All cosy and still.
The rise and fall of your tummy as you breathe.
You notice the sound of your breath.
The sounds around you in the room.
The feeling of wherever you're lying or sitting right now.
And you begin to wriggle your fingers and toes very gently.
And when you're ready,
In your own time,
And there's absolutely no rush.
You let your eyes slowly open.
You are loved.
You have always been loved.
And you always will be loved.
Well done,
Little one.
I hope you enjoyed that.
