Hi.

What is good with you today?

It can be big or small.

For me,

I am loving the sunshine,

And that is good.

Find your cozy place,

Somewhere you can relax completely with no distractions.

Whether it's sitting on your bed,

Laying on the floor,

Standing outside on the grass,

Whatever feels right is just fine.

We'll take three deep breaths together as we begin to relax our body and mind.

Today,

We are on the Greek island of Santorini.

The sun is shining so brightly and happily in the sky.

We are headed to a town called Ea,

Where we'll stay overnight.

As we arrive to the island,

We notice the tall cliffs of the mountains,

Full of whitewashed buildings,

All clustered together,

Lining the entire island.

The bright white buildings against the dark cliffs and the cobalt blue Aegean sea is a striking sight to behold.

It's so breathtaking and so magical.

We can smell the salt air,

And as we start to walk up the streets to where we're staying,

We notice the smoothness of everything around us,

The smooth stones paving the streets,

The soft,

Rounded edges of the whitewashed buildings,

The friendly softness of the people we pass,

Everyone so friendly,

In such a good mood today.

There are flowers everywhere lining the streets,

Covering the buildings,

Adding green,

Pink,

And every different color to the landscape.

As we walk,

We say hi to some neighborhood cats passing by.

They're happy and well fed,

One black and one white,

With blue eyes.

We stop to pet them,

Then head on our way.

The smells in the air,

Fresh bread cooking,

The tiki being made,

The perfume of women that pass us on the street,

Feel so relaxing,

Brings us right into the present.

We feel fully immersed in this experience.

We get to our overnight stay in Ia.

It's a gorgeous cave suite tucked into the cliffs of the mountain,

And looking out on the deep blue sea.

As we walk in,

We see it's all white,

Clean inside,

And bright,

And we head directly to the outdoor area with a private pool and hot tub overlooking the ocean.

We change and get right in,

Soaking our bodies in the warm,

Cozy water.

We look along the cliffs of the island.

They look a bit like coral reefs,

Which is not surprising,

Since there are myths that Santorini is the lost city of Atlantis.

We're feeling exquisitely relaxed,

Incredibly calm,

And absolutely in awe.

We'll take that sense of awe and we turn it in to deep blue drops of ocean water.

It pours gently down,

Down,

Over our heads,

Into our brains,

Cooling,

Calming.

This deep blue sense of awe moves down our spines,

Into our chest,

Stomach,

Hips,

And legs,

And our shoulders,

Arms,

And hands,

Until we are completely filled with this cooling,

Calming,

Deep blue awe.

We'll take three deep breaths together as we continue to fill our bodies with this magnificent feeling.

We'll take three deep breaths together as we continue to fill our bodies with this magnificent feeling.

Thank yourself for taking a little time out for you today.

I love you so very much.
