My name is Jillian Buckley.

In this meditation we will take a journey through the body.

Begin by lying down on a mat.

Make sure you are comfortable.

Take blankets or pillows under you.

Make sure you're nice and warm.

Take a deep breath in through the nose.

Let it go through the mouth.

Repeat that breath.

Think of a flower.

Imagine the color of the petals.

Picture the flower's shape.

What does the flower smell like?

Now bring to mind a bowl of these flowers.

You will gently be placing these flowers onto your body.

Begin by placing a flower on the palm of your right hand,

The right elbow,

On top of the right shoulder,

Under the arm,

Onto your right side ribs,

The right hip,

The right thigh,

The right knee,

The top of the shin,

The right ankle,

The top of the right foot.

Place a flower on the palm of your left hand,

The left elbow crease,

On top of the left shoulder,

Under the arm,

Onto your left side ribs,

The left hip,

The left thigh,

The left knee,

The top of the left shin,

The ankle,

The top of the left foot.

Lay a flower on the crown of your head.

Place another on the back of your head,

The spot where your skull and your neck meet.

Place flowers all the way down the spine.

Place a flower on your right shoulder blade,

Your left shoulder blade,

On the back of the right arm,

On the back of the left.

Place a flower on the back of the lower right arm,

The lower left arm,

Back of the right hand,

Back of the left.

Place a flower on either side of the lower back ribs,

On the back of the hips,

Back of thighs,

Back of calves,

Soles of the feet.

Take two flowers and place them on the sides of your low belly.

Place a flower in your navel and another right over your heart.

Gently lay a flower on your throat.

Place a petal on each of your lips.

Lay petals over your closed eyes.

Carefully place a closed bud on the space between your eyebrows,

The space we call the third eye.

Imagine the whole body covered in flowers.

Their smell is familiar and calming.

Feel connected to the floor beneath you.

Become aware of your body.

Now start to make small movements.

When you are ready,

Open your eyes.

Very interesting and very different. I had a little bit of trouble picturing some of it, because, since I am lying down, and so many of the flowers went on the backside, I kept picturing them all being crushed. And I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to be picturing a sitting up self, despite being lying down, but anyway, I really enjoyed it
