Are you ready to receive deep healing in body,
In mind and in spirit?
This is your time to rest and reset,
To relax your body,
To cleanse your mind and to rejuvenate your spirit.
No matter what you are currently carrying,
You are welcome to receive renewal.
Give yourself full permission to be restored to balance,
Breath by breath,
Moment by moment.
Tonight,
As you bathe in a hidden hot spring surrounded by crystals and lush greenery,
Profound restoration will flow through you,
Through all layers of your being.
My name is Jason Stevenson and it's an honour to have you here.
Thank you for your commitment to well-being.
Welcome.
As we prepare for the transformative journey ahead,
Take a moment to settle in.
You're invited to drift off to sleep at any point along the way,
So make sure you're in a safe and comfortable place to rest deeply.
And as your body gently surrenders into your bed,
Take a slow,
Steady breath in,
And a gentle cleansing breath out,
Another slow,
Steady breath in,
And a smooth,
Gentle release.
Let your breath flow naturally now,
Noticing the way your body gently expands with each in-breath,
And how it naturally relaxes with each out-breath.
At any point along the way,
If your mind wanders into worry or rumination,
You can always re-anchor through your breath,
It is always there as a reminder to let go.
But I invite you now to turn your attention to your mind's eye,
To that place inside of you that holds infinite potential for ease and well-being.
And as you enter this place,
Imagine yourself stepping into a lush,
Tropical sanctuary.
The air is warm and heavy,
With the scent of blooming orchards,
Jasmine,
And damp earth.
The plants around you glisten with large droplets of steam,
Their wide,
Emerald surfaces catching the glow of nearby crystals.
Amethyst,
Sapphire,
And emerald are but a few of the radiant gemstones that emerge from the earth.
A faint chorus of crickets hums in harmony with the tranquil rhythm of the rainforest,
And fireflies dart through the evening sky.
Dusk has fallen,
The sky aglow with violet and amber ribbons of light.
Before you,
A gently murmuring hot spring awaits,
Its waters shimmering beneath the luminous aura of crystals and the setting sun.
This is the place where you will be renewed.
This is the healing force that will bring you back into balance.
In just a moment,
I will guide you to slowly and gradually enter the water.
Allow this to unfold with ease,
There is no rush to get anywhere.
For now,
Feel the warm stone at the water's edge beneath your feet,
Noticing the gentle call of the water,
A promise of release,
Ease,
And renewal.
As you gaze down at the water,
You notice a series of steps or a slope leading into the healing hot spring.
I invite you now to take a long,
Slow breath in,
And as you exhale,
Take your first two steps,
Feet arriving in the healing pool of water which just reaches your ankles.
Feel the warmth,
Renewal,
And relaxation that surrounds both of your feet.
Each and every toe relaxes,
And any physical tension melts away from each foot completely.
Give them permission to soften and surrender.
Continue to breathe slowly and naturally,
Nourished by the vibrant aroma of the hot spring.
And with your next out-breath,
Take another two steps in,
Allowing the nourishing water to bathe your lower legs completely.
Any tightness in your calves begins to unravel,
And your shins are softened and soothed as the water swirls around your skin.
Take a slow,
Steady breath in,
Drawing in the tranquility of your surroundings,
And a slow,
Steady breath out,
Releasing any tension or heaviness.
When you're ready,
You move further until the water surrounds your upper legs entirely,
Up to and including your hips.
Any tension,
Tightness,
Or discomfort in your quads or hamstrings dissolves by the touch of this healing water,
And your hips are bathed in renewal.
It is often said that our hips store our emotions,
So as you allow the water to cover these areas,
Notice if anything's coming up for you.
If any difficult emotions appear,
Just notice these with kindness and non-judgment,
Softening any urge to cling to them.
And imagine the water absorbing and transforming these feelings,
Carrying them gently out of the stagnation and into flow.
Let them be carried by a current of compassion.
There's no need to push away or fix anything,
Simply let your physical body surrender to the warmth and care that surrounds you.
Trust that as your physical body relaxes,
So too will your emotional body.
You take another step further,
Moving a little deeper into the water.
It covers your belly and your lower back,
Bringing ease,
Warmth,
And release to any tension in these areas.
Soften your belly as you breathe,
As your fingertips graze the surface of the glistening pool.
The soles of your feet have reached the bottom of the hot spring,
And you walk gently across it to the other side of this enchanted body of water.
There on the other side is a ledge you can comfortably sit on,
Carved into the spring's natural crystal surface.
So see yourself taking a seat now,
As you feel the water rising to cover your chest and upper back,
And reaching only up to your collarbones.
Your arms drop into the pool as well,
With every square inch of your hands,
Forearms,
And upper arms covered by this shimmering,
Healing water.
Take a few slow and steady breaths here,
As you exhale,
Invite any tension to melt away from your heart area,
From your chest,
And from your back.
Allow the warmth and compassion of the pool to help you breathe gently and effortlessly,
Your lungs filling with the nutrient-rich air and steam that surrounds you.
And as your chest and back relax,
Invite your arms and hands to surrender as well.
So you let go of anything you've been holding too tightly,
Embracing the natural invitation to rest,
Reset,
And restore.
Take a few mindful moments here to reconnect with the beauty of where you are,
The water surrounding you is iridescent blue,
Born of the sapphire crystal that lines the interior of the hot spring,
And all around the water itself is a lush,
Vibrant jungle,
With tropical plants in full bloom,
And clusters of crystals that glow softly in the evening light.
Your body is deeply,
Deeply relaxed here,
Any muscular tension eased by the warm,
Pristine water.
Now,
Take a few intentional breaths to deepen your attunement to the peaceful vibration of this landscape.
Let each breath sink with the slow ripple of water on the surface,
Filling with calm and serenity as you inhale.
Releasing any tightness or heaviness as you exhale.
Now,
As any hidden treasure within your body continues to dissolve in the warm water,
Draw your attention to what you've been holding in your headspace,
In your thinking,
Ruminating mind.
Are there any limiting stories,
Fears,
Or negative judgements that no longer serve you?
Is there anything in your mind that your higher self wants to be free from?
And as you notice the thoughts that are calling to be cleansed,
Also become aware of the glistening steam that rises from the surface of the water.
Allow this steam to swirl up and around your headspace,
Absorbing and carrying away any thoughts or mental heaviness that do not serve you.
Use your breath to support the process of release,
Softening with each breath out.
The steam dances upwards,
Absorbing all thoughts,
Worries,
And ruminations with complete ease and grace.
It's not forcing these things to leave you,
It's taking and transforming them effortlessly.
Now,
Continue to let this process unfold,
And as it does,
You might silently repeat,
Can I allow myself to fully receive this healing?
Can I allow myself to be free of all the things that do not serve me?
There is nothing you need to hold on to.
There is nothing you need to hold on to.
You might also imagine yourself cupping this healing water in your hands,
And gently pouring it over the crown of your head.
In the same way that the steam absorbs anything that holds you back,
The water too carries away anything you don't need to keep inside of you.
Watch the healing water,
Which sparkles as if made of liquid crystal,
As it flows down your head,
Neck,
And shoulders.
It frees your body and your mind of all tension,
All worry,
And all weight.
And as you did earlier,
Notice if any emotions are arising,
Because while this process can feel joyous and calming,
There might first be a wave of worry,
Resistance,
Or something else.
If that is the case for you in this moment,
Can you let that be completely okay?
Can you hold space for whatever is arising within you,
With care,
Compassion,
And non-judgment?
Can you surrender to the process,
Trusting it completely?
When we stop resisting whatever is moving through us,
And instead bless it with care,
Curiosity,
And kindness,
We create space for healing to naturally arise.
Without effort,
This loving acceptance brings us back into balance,
And back to recognition of our wholeness.
So,
As the steam continues to absorb and carry away any thoughts or feelings bubbling up to the surface,
You might silently repeat,
I am naturally coming back into balance.
I am whole and I am healing.
I am naturally coming back into balance.
I am whole and I am healing.
Take a slow,
Deep breath here,
Releasing with a gentle sigh.
Continue to surrender,
In body,
In mind,
And in heart.
As your thoughts become quieter,
And your mind grows increasingly spacious,
Your gaze rises to meet the darkening sky above.
It is a deep indigo with streaks of mystic teal.
Thousands and thousands of stars illuminate the night,
And a full moon bathes the world in peace and beauty.
Your mind,
Body,
And heart are attuning to the peace and wonder of the universe,
And as this happens,
Your spirit is renewed.
Feel how weightless you are becoming,
You are deeply relaxed and deeply at peace.
You are completely content with this present moment,
Aware of how innately whole you are.
Now,
Your attention returns to the tropical greenery around you.
Large leaves glisten beneath the moonlight,
Amidst the soft glow of crystals that emerge from the forest floor.
Beads of healing water run down them,
Nurturing the earth in a continual cycle of renewal.
Palms sway gently in the warm night breeze,
Brushing against each other with a whispering rustle.
The sound of greenery blends seamlessly with the subtle hum of nocturnal insects.
Your attention lands in your sense of smell now,
Noticing the floral perfume of jasmine and orchids.
Take a long,
Steady inhale,
Welcoming this fragrance and its healing properties deep into your body,
And exhale as you surrender ever more deeply.
Now,
The water itself is capturing your attention.
As the sky darkens,
You become aware of a vibrant pink light glowing up from the bottom of the hot spring.
It is warm and enchanting,
And you intuitively know that it's here to facilitate even deeper healing.
You feel into the soles of your feet and try to find the source of this light,
And it doesn't take long before your toes locate a large gemstone-like object at the bottom of the hot spring.
As soon as you make contact with it,
Something remarkable happens.
Even though it is heavy as a rock,
It begins to rise,
And as it breaches the surface of the water,
You gently grab it with your two hands,
And there,
Held between your palms,
Is a radiant,
Beaming bright pink sapphire,
A crystal that is glowing from within,
Casting vibrant magenta light across the water and your whole body.
Pink sapphire is a powerful crystal.
It carries properties of emotional healing,
Wisdom,
Harmony,
Unconditional compassion,
And the ability to overcome obstacles.
So,
As you hold it in your hands,
Consider what you'd like it to bless you with.
Again,
It could be emotional healing,
Wisdom,
Harmony,
Compassion,
Or the power to overcome obstacles.
Then feel the inherent light of this crystal,
Strengthening the renewal that the water has already facilitated,
While offering you whatever extra gift you might wish to receive.
From the crown of your head to the tips of your toes,
Your body fills with radiant pink light,
Nurturing your body on a very deep cellular level.
Take a few more breaths while holding this pink sapphire in your palms.
Let your body,
Mind,
Heart,
And spirit fill with its healing properties as you inhale,
Surrendering any recurrent tension as you exhale.
When you're ready,
Thank this healing crystal for its blessings,
Then let it sink back down to the bottom of the hot springs where it lives.
Reconnect with your breath,
Inhale the jasmine and orchid perfume that fills the air,
And exhale to soften.
Now,
You can feel yourself growing sleepy,
You are ready for a solid night of deep slumber.
So take a few final breaths to feel the presence of this warm water all around your body,
And sense the way it nourishes and replenishes your skin,
And how that nourishment travels deep into every muscle and cell.
Then,
When you're ready,
Slowly emerge from the hot spring the same way you entered it.
The tropical air is warm against your skin,
Yet still,
As you emerge from the water,
You find a folded robe and a soft pair of slippers awaiting you.
You tuck your toes into the slippers,
And you wrap the robe around your body.
Just beside this hot spring,
You see something you hadn't noticed before.
It's a small bamboo hut with large,
Open-aired windows.
Inside is a large bed with plush white pillows and a cozy duvet,
A place made just for you,
A place where you can fall asleep beneath the moonlight.
So take a moment to envision your renewed and refreshed self moving slowly towards the hut,
And crawling into bed in your own time.
The evening air is full of magic and relaxed radiance,
With moonlight,
Crystal luminosity,
The hum of crickets,
And the rich aroma of damp earth and flower blossoms.
The teal light has left the sky,
Which is now a canvas of dark indigo and countless stars.
Notice the way they twinkle,
Reminding you of the beauty,
Magic,
And infinite possibility of the universe.
Feel your body where it rests on the bed beneath you,
Head supported by a plush pillow,
Body comforted by a warm duvet.
As you rest on the bed in the middle of this tropical forest,
Next to the healing waters,
A subtle smile stretches across your face.
It is a smile of contentment,
A smile of inner peace.
It is a smile as you realize that just like nature,
You can heal without force or effort.
When you give your mind and body space to relax,
You naturally move back towards balance.
So take one last look around this enchanted environment,
Gazing out through the open air window of the hut.
Feel the vastness of space and the way the universe holds you without condition.
Whoever you are,
You are loved and you belong.
You are whole already,
Exactly as you are.
Now close your eyes gently to the imagery as your attention anchors back in your breath and body.
And one last time for tonight,
Give your whole body permission to relax,
Starting at the crown of your head.
And as you focus your attention on your crown,
Invite it to soften,
Give it permission to be at peace.
Then welcome this soft,
Peaceful quality of your awareness to travel into your forehead.
And any recurrent tension or tightness dissolves away from these muscles.
Trace your awareness into your cheeks and jaw,
Guiding them gently to relax.
And then feel into your neck and shoulders,
Offering these areas your care and kindness as they naturally and completely relax.
Inch by inch,
Relaxation flows down your arms to your fingertips.
Any residual grip they've been holding melts into the bed beneath you.
Take a slow,
Deep breath all the way down your arms,
Relaxing them even more as you breathe out.
And now become aware of your heart,
Sensing the way it naturally expands and softens with each breath cycle.
Then allow this energy of relaxation to expand throughout your entire chest and upper back.
And give these areas full permission to surrender to sleep.
Gradually,
Your attention traces the length of your spine,
Offering rest and relaxation to every rib and vertebrae.
And eventually,
Your awareness pools in your belly.
Let your belly be soft as you breathe,
Naturally rising as you inhale,
And softening as you exhale.
And inch by inch,
This relaxed,
Loving awareness enters into your hips and slowly travels down your legs,
Inviting every muscle to rest.
Your legs soften deeply into the mattress that holds them.
And take a slow,
Steady breath all the way down to your toes,
And release with a gentle sigh as you breathe out.
Your entire body is light,
Relaxed,
And renewed.
Your mind,
Heart,
And spirit are deeply at peace.
There is nothing left to do now but to sink into slumber,
Which will naturally unfold in its own time.
In the meantime,
Stay close to the rhythmic ebb and flow of your breath.
Remember that each fresh breath cycle is an invitation to soften,
To rest,
To let go.
And as you breathe,
Also remember that you are eternally whole,
And that the more you make space to relax,
The more your body,
Mind,
Heart,
And spirit will naturally restore themselves.
And may this energy of renewal continue to blossom in the days to come.
And until next time,
Goodnight my friend,
Goodnight.
