Hello and welcome.
For this meditation,
We are going to be doing some visualization,
Guiding you through a landscape in your mind.
So to start,
Just begin by making yourself comfortable.
For this meditation,
You can be in a comfortable seated position,
Over-climbed,
Supported in any way that works for you.
When you first bring yourself to this place of relaxation,
Start to notice that there's any tension you're still holding onto in your body,
And see if you can relax and let go so that we can shift the mind to be more internal.
You can start by just being aware of what parts of your body are resting against any cushions,
Chair,
Pillows,
Bed,
Wherever you find yourself.
Just notice as you rest against them that you feel supported.
See if you can sink a little bit deeper into that feeling of support.
In a moment,
I'm going to count down from 10 to 1,
And as I do,
Just allow yourself to sink deeper into a state of calm and relaxation.
10,
9,
8,
Relaxing,
7,
6,
5,
4,
3,
2,
And 1.
I'd like to invite you to visualize yourself in your happy place,
Whatever landscape that is,
Whatever setting.
You can be any part of the world.
You can be in a forest,
In a field,
A desert,
By a beach.
Whatever works for you,
Just notice where you are.
Take a moment to look around and just notice things like whether or not it's daytime or night.
If you can see the sky,
Does it have clouds in it?
Then start to notice if perhaps you can pick up any smells in the air.
Noticing what sounds are around you.
Are you within any proximity to any nature,
Birds,
Or any other animals?
Just knowing that in your setting,
You are always safe.
You can begin to walk around a little bit if you haven't already done so.
Maybe it even feels good to just touch some of the elements in your surrounding.
Just notice how it feels to be in your happy place,
This place of peace and calm for you.
As you're walking through this setting,
I want you to imagine that in the distance you see a structure,
A house or a cabin,
And you start to walk towards it.
As you do,
You start to realize that this is your dream home or your ideal getaway.
It's that perfect place for you.
You continue to walk towards it,
Taking in more of its features.
Noticing what you built your dream home from,
What it looks like,
The colors.
And then you walk all the way up to the front door.
I'd like to invite you to knock on that door.
As you knock on the door,
Something feels familiar about the whole setting.
And then you hear someone coming to answer the door.
And as the door begins to swing open,
You recognize the person who opened it.
And it's the future version of you.
I'd like you to just take in that future version of you.
Notice how they're dressed,
Notice how they stand,
How they look,
How they radiate confidence and happiness being in their perfect setting in their dream home.
And then the future version of you invites you into the house.
Once you take a step inside and just begin to look around at the things that you've accumulated over the years.
Does the decor or setting inside the house give you any indication of the life that you've lived?
Does any one thing in this house stand out to you as being more important or having more weight to it than other items?
If so,
Maybe you walk up to it and just take it in,
Whatever that item is.
And get a sense for the feel inside that house,
The energy,
The atmosphere.
Once you've had a good look around,
Turn to that future version of you and thank them for the insight into that future world.
Slowly making your way towards the door,
Stepping over the threshold and then hearing the door gently closing behind you.
As you start to step away from that dream house,
Back into your perfect setting,
What is the biggest takeaway from that encounter with that future you?
And while you're bringing that to mind,
Still aware of the environment that you find yourself in,
I'm going to begin to count from 1 to 10.
As I get closer to 10,
Finding yourself more alert,
More aware of the room that you're in.
1,
2,
3,
4,
5,
6,
Beginning to bring your awareness back into your room,
7,
8,
9,
And 10.
Maybe taking in a deep breath,
Feeling your ribs expand,
Maybe feeling your belly rise,
Feeling back in your body.
When you're ready,
You can gently begin to open your eyes,
Take in your surrounding and know that within you lives that future you.
You are the seed of potential for anything that you want to accomplish in life,
For anywhere that you want to find yourself.
You have all the tools you need to right now.
Thank you for joining me on this journey.
Namaste.
