I want to invite you to take a journey with me out into nature.
Take a few deep breaths as you prepare for your adventure.
Inhale deeply.
Inhale completely.
Allow yourself to be here fully.
Allow yourself to go on a journey into the most serene and peaceful space you can imagine.
Breathe deep.
Let everything else from your day go.
It's time to go out into the forest and connect with all that is.
Take another deep breath in becoming more and more relaxed.
Dropping in deeper and deeper.
More and more relaxed.
Awaken your imagination and let yourself go fully.
Drop deeper into your heart space as you follow the rhythm of your breath.
The sound of my voice and the melodies of the music.
See yourself now walking along a forest path with lush green trees and a perfectly cool moist soil below.
The rays of the sun are sprinkling in through the trees creating shadows along your path.
Take a few deep breaths and breathe in the fresh forest air.
You already feel a sense of peace just taking these few steps out into nature.
And continue walking along this path until you come to a clearing off in the distance.
A beautiful field full of wild flowers and grass.
It's just so peaceful.
The warmth of the sun is the perfect temperature for you.
The bouquet of wild flowers smells sweet and the beauty of nature begins to envelop you.
Walking across the field with your heart opened in deep gratitude for the beauty and the healing of nature.
The closer you get to the other side of this field the more you can hear the sounds of a babbling river.
You even begin to feel the coolness of the glacier water against your cheek.
You find a big rock,
The perfect spot for you to take a moment and sit along the river's edge.
Allow yourself to settle in and be here fully.
Let the beauty of this moment capture your heart.
Slowing down,
Sinking in deeper,
Letting everything else go.
Letting the beauty of this moment awaken you to its magic.
Slow down even more.
Deeper.
Deeper still.
Tune in and listen.
Notice your breath.
Feel the subtle beating of your heart in your chest.
Open your heart even more.
Hear the sounds of nature that surround you.
Be in this moment fully.
Can you soften even more?
Can you allow the most subtle sounds to come into your awareness?
If you really listen,
Can you hear the faint beating of your heart pulsing inside of you?
Can you hear the backdrop of the hushing wind,
The river and the bird songs?
Let the beauty of this moment enliven your senses,
Becoming fully awake and fully aware.
Be here now.
Be in nature.
Come one with her.
Feel the soft rays of the sun gently warming your skin,
The sacred grounding of the cool earth below you and the gentle breeze on your face.
Slow down even more.
Drop in even deeper.
Deeper still.
Let your whole self go.
How quiet can you become?
In the stillness.
In the oneness.
In the beauty of this moment,
Right here,
Right now.
Allow yourself to feel it all,
Merging with your surroundings,
Letting go of any preconceived boundaries between your physical body and all that is.
Dissolving any sense of separation you may have.
Allow yourself to merge with your surroundings and become one.
There is no more separation.
You are nature and nature is you.
You are one with the wind blowing gently.
Merge with the sun.
Become one with the luminescent rays providing life to all of earth's inhabitants.
You are the sun.
Feel yourself as the cool glacier water rushing over the riverbed.
Slowly,
Patiently etching itself in the rocks below.
Feel yourself flowing to the sea.
One with the body of water that connects us all and wraps its arms around the entire planet.
You are the earth.
The earth is you.
Merge with her.
Ground yourself in her belly.
Feel her nurturing,
Sustaining,
Ever-present energy.
Feel the earth supporting and holding you.
Becoming one with you.
You are the cool soil providing nutrients to sustain life.
There is no separation.
You are the beating heart of the earth.
The cooling waters,
The life-giving rays of the sun,
And the sweet song of the birds.
Allow the song of the birds to carry you.
Take flight.
Be free.
Free yourself and let your soul soar.
Journey and weave in and out.
Take flight.
Soar free.
Rise up and fly high like the eagle.
Feel the wind under your wings.
You are free.
Fly high like the eagle,
High above the trees.
Ride the winds and soar free.
Travel where you need to.
Feel the freedom to fly free.
Open your heart.
Let it fill with love.
The purest and most sacred kind of love.
Keep soaring.
Feel the love in your heart.
Let it expand you even more.
Keep soaring.
And as you do,
Pour that love in your heart back down to the earth from your eagle's perspective.
Like the rays of the sun shining her beautiful light.
Pour down the rays of your heart down onto the earth.
Feeling the earth and all that lives here with your love.
Soar free.
Feel your connection with all that is.
One big interconnected human family.
One big interconnected family with all living things.
Keep filling your heart and giving your love away as you soar free.
Keep filling your connection with all that is.
And now slowly finding your way back home.
Back to the spot you started.
Sitting on that rock on the river's edge.
Find your way back into your body.
Ever so slowly and gently.
As you integrate back into your body and into this moment in time.
Hold on to this memory.
To the sensations and feelings of oneness and love.
Keep your heart open.
Let love guide your way.
Breathe deep and once again begin to feel your body in this time and space.
Feel your body renewed and rested.
Your spirit enlivened,
Your soul awakened and your heart so happy.
And as you come back to this moment,
As you come back to the here and now,
To the space you are in.
Remember you are one with all that is.
Remember to live and soar free.
