Welcome to this guided meditation.
Finding harmony can be beneficial when healing from trauma.
Because it can help to create a sense of balance and stability in the mind and body.
Trauma can cause a person to feel disordered and out of control.
Which can make it difficult to move forward and heal.
By practicing harmony.
One can focus on creating balance and inner peace.
Close your eyes.
Take a deep breath in,
Feeling your belly expand.
And fill with air and release the breath out slowly and gently.
Inhale deeply and as you exhale imagine that you are releasing any tension or stress that you may be holding in your body.
Allow your body to become relaxed and at ease.
Bring your attention to the top of your head.
And scan down through your body.
Noticing any areas of tension or discomfort.
As you scan through your body,
Imagine that you are releasing any tension or stress that you may be holding in each area.
Start with your forehead.
Imagine a warm and soothing light flowing through your forehead,
Relaxing and releasing any tension that you may have.
Move to your eyes and imagine the warmth and soothing light flowing through your eyes,
Relaxing and releasing all tension.
Move to your cheeks,
Jaw,
And mouth and imagine the warmth and soothing light flowing through those areas,
Relaxing and releasing all tension.
Move to your neck and shoulders.
Imagine the warmth and soothing light flowing through those areas,
Relaxing and releasing all tension.
Move to your arms and hands.
Imagine the warmth and soothing light flowing through those areas,
Relaxing and releasing all tension.
Move to your chest and stomach,
Imagine the warmth and soothing light flowing through those areas,
Relaxing and releasing all tension.
Move to your hips,
Legs and feet and imagine the warmth and soothing light flowing through those areas,
Relaxing and releasing any tension that you may have.
Now imagine the soothing light flowing throughout your entire body.
You feel peaceful and calm.
On your next breath in.
Imagine that you are breathing in harmony.
Filling your body and mind with a sense of balance and peace.
As you exhale,
Imagine that you are exhaling any feelings of disharmony or conflict,
Releasing them and letting them go.
Bring your attention to your heart.
And remind yourself of the importance of finding harmony in your life.
Imagine that your heart is a peaceful and serene place where all things are in balance.
As you continue to focus on your breath.
Imagine that with each breath in,
You are inhaling harmony and balance.
And with each breath out,
You are exhaling any feelings of disharmony or conflict.
Take a moment to imagine that you are surrounded by a harmonious energy.
And that this energy is permeating every aspect of your being,
Soothing and calming your mind,
Body and spirit.
I invite you to imagine a beautiful garden.
The garden is peaceful.
And you can hear the sound of a gentle stream flowing nearby.
In the garden,
You see a large tree.
This tree symbolizes you and your life.
As you approach the tree,
You notice that the leaves are rustling in the breeze.
The tree is alive and strong.
And you can see that it is in perfect balance.
The roots are deep.
And strong and the branches reach up to the sky.
Focus on the tree in front of you.
Notice the way that it stands tall and strong,
Rooted firmly in the earth.
As you look at the tree.
Imagine that you are becoming more and more like it.
Imagine that your roots are growing deep into the earth.
Connecting you to the Earth.
And its natural energy.
Feel yourself becoming more and more grounded and stable.
As your roots grow deeper,
Imagine that your branches are reaching up towards the sky.
Feel yourself becoming more and more connected to the energy of the sky and the universe.
Now,
Imagine that your entire body is in perfect balance,
Just like the tree.
Your roots are deep and strong.
And your branches are reaching up towards the sky.
You are connected to the Earth and the Universe.
And you are in harmony with all that surrounds you.
Take a deep breath in and as you exhale,
Imagine that you are radiating harmony out into the world.
Imagine that your energy is spreading out in all directions,
Filling the world with peace and balance.
As you continue to breathe deeply and slowly.
Imagine that you are becoming more and more in harmony with yourself.
And the world around you.
When you are ready,
Slowly begin to come back to your surroundings.
Wiggle your toes and your fingers.
Sway your head from side to side.
And when you are ready,
Open your eyes.
