Hello and welcome to this short guided meditation.
I am Kate from Home To You Healing and Home To You Meditations.
You can use this meditation any time that you would like to relax,
Reset,
Recharge your batteries or simply give yourself a little energy boost in the middle of a very busy day.
Enjoy.
Gently close down your eyes.
Mentally scan your body for any areas of tension,
Tightness or discomfort and without judgment or attachment allow these areas to soften and relax.
Drop your shoulders.
We're going to focus on the breath now.
As you breathe in,
Breathe in,
Breathe deep into your belly.
You can place your hand here and feel it rise as it fills with your precious breath.
Feel it fall as you breathe out.
So let's do a few of these beautiful breaths now.
Breathe in,
Hold,
Breathe out.
Breathe in,
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
Breathe in,
Hold,
Breathe out.
Imagine that you are standing on a cliff path overlooking the ocean.
It's a beautiful summer's day.
The sky is blue for as far as you can see.
You can feel the sun warm on your body like a soft gentle hug.
As you breathe in,
You can taste and smell the salty sea air.
As you breathe out,
You feel peaceful,
Content,
Happy to be here in this special place.
Feel the grass soft beneath your bare feet.
As you begin to walk closer to the edge of your pathway,
You notice a stairway to your right that will take you down to the white sandy beach below.
As you step onto the stairway,
You feel and smell the warm wood,
Sturdy and welcoming.
And as you walk down slowly,
Step by step,
You feel yourself becoming more and more relaxed.
Feeling relaxed and peaceful,
So content and relaxed.
As you step onto the warm soft white sand,
Looking around you can see that you have this beach entirely to yourself.
The only sound,
The lapping of the waves as they break on the shore.
Gently rolling in,
The sun glistening on the ocean,
Almost hypnotizing as you watch it dance and sparkle on the waves.
Breathe in,
Breathe out a contented sigh.
You sense that this is a healing place.
The water is so inviting that you begin to walk towards the sea's edge,
Slowly dipping your toes first and finding the water to deliciously warm.
Walking further into the sea,
The sand is soft but firm beneath your feet.
You are perfectly safe here.
I'm walking just to where you feel comfortable,
In this crystal clear soothing water.
Feel it lapping around your body,
Gently caressing you,
Washing you clean.
If you wish to swim or float here,
Allow yourself to do so.
Enjoy the feeling of the healing water on your body and how good it feels to be floating,
Light and weightless.
It's time to rest on the beach for a while now.
And as you leave the water,
You feel the heat of the sun begin to dry your body.
You lie down on the soft warm sand,
Feeling every muscle in your body softening and relaxing.
Grateful to have this time just for you in this heavenly place.
You are always welcome here,
Always safe and accepted and you can return whenever you like for some peace and soothing rest.
It's time now to make your way back to the beach.
Take a last look around you before you leave your haven,
Taking in the beautiful vista of sparkling crystal clear water,
Blue sky and white sandy beach.
Inhaling the fresh sea air,
Hearing the gulls as they circle overhead and now making your way back up the wooden staircase,
Step by step becoming aware of the surface beneath you,
Of the sounds in the room.
You are back on your cliff path,
Freshed,
Relaxed.
You can gently wriggle your toes,
Your fingers,
Stretch if you wish and return to your day.
But if you wish to rest further or slip into sleep,
Continue to focus on your breath for a few moments.
And breathe in,
Rest and breathe,
Breathe and rest.
All is well.
Thank you for taking this time to take care of you this day.
