Living Your Dream

Set an intention and then try this meditation each morning or night or both. Be curious about any changes you observe. Our brain has difficulty knowing the difference between thought and reality. By visualising we are training our brains and forming neural networks as if our mental image is reality. We visualise and the brain responds accordingly. Visualisation can allow us to feel motivated, confident and ready for success. Also, keep bringing your visualisation to mind throughout the day.

Finding a comfortable position for meditation.

Having your spine as straight as possible.

You might like to tuck your chin to get a little extra length in your spine.

Relaxing your hands beside your body or in your lap.

If you feel comfortable closing your eyes and connecting with your inner world.

Just being with whatever is there today.

Become aware of your breath.

Noticing your inhale and your exhale.

Allowing your breath to be an anchor in this moment in time.

Letting go of the future and the past and being as present as you can.

It's now time to bring your intention to mind and visualize it as if it's happening right now in as much detail as possible.

What's happening?

How do you look?

What expression is on your face?

What's changed in your life?

How does it feel within your body for your intention to be real?

What are you doing?

What can you see?

What's happening?

Use as many of your senses as possible and really feel exactly how you would feel if your intention were true right now in this moment.

See it unfolding in your mind's eye like a movie and you're the star.

Again,

Noting how this feels and then allow those feelings to wash through your body.

Allow your brain to form the neural pathways it needs.

Allow the neurochemistry to release the hormones that match your intention.

Stay with your visualization and keep coming back to it.

Keep picturing and imagining what is happening and feeling it within your body.

Allow the feelings and sensations related to your intention to flow throughout every cell in your being.

And just sit with this visualization for a moment.

And now letting your visualization go,

Knowing you can bring it back to mind whenever you'd like to throughout your day.

Perhaps set times aside to practice in the morning when you first wake up in the evening just before you go to bed,

Whatever works for you.

And throughout the day,

Just whenever you feel you need to visualize your intention,

Feel how it feels as if it were now and allow those feelings to spread throughout your being.

You can do this whenever you need to,

Whenever it feels right for you.

And the more you practice,

The more the changes will happen.

Bring your awareness to your breath again,

Moving in and out of your body.

Become aware of your body as a whole.

And if it feels right for you,

Gently wriggle your fingers and toes and start to bring movement back into your body,

Stretching or twisting or turning,

Whatever it is your body needs.

Gently opening your eyes and taking a look around the space you're in,

In as much detail as you can.

Allowing yourself to feel grounded and present in this moment.
