To help bring clarity to your path and answer the soul searching question,
Where am I going?
I invite you to join me in this short meditation to find a comfortable place to rest,
Close your eyes and breathe deeply.
And just allow your breath to find its natural rhythm.
Visualize being completely enveloped by a soft healing light,
Relaxing you from head to toe,
Noticing any tension you might be holding in your face or your body.
Try not to judge those places,
Just take note and see if you can soften those areas with the next exhale.
Then invite the healing light in its place.
Imagine walking outside along a peaceful path lined with trees.
You hear the sounds of nature,
Feel the fresh air on your skin and up ahead you notice a shimmering light.
You walk closer,
It seems to be a glass door.
Curious you look through it and see a beautiful glowing being smiling back at you.
They're emanating a bright light.
This being is the same size as you and every movement you make they make too.
And you realize it's actually a reflection,
A special kind of reflection.
This is a mirror showing you your spiritual self.
This is your higher self,
The one who lives in alignment with truth and love.
The spiritual self who effortlessly knows exactly what to do and when.
To ask your spiritual self what being happy and fulfilled looks like.
There next to the mirror you catch a glimpse of a vision,
A peek into the future.
One where you're living in alignment with your truth,
Tapping into your unique set of strengths and just as quickly as this vision came to you it disappears.
Ask your spiritual self if you're heading in the right path to realize this vision you just saw.
What needs to change to be on the right path?
Japanese philosopher Daisaku Ikeda says,
People who are rooted in the here and now,
Who are not defeated by their limitations,
Who don't compare themselves to others,
Who confidently advance along their chosen path.
Such people are happy.
Such people are truly great.
Deep breath here as you contemplate this meditation and as you go about your day today and always may you find ways to tap into your spiritual self allowing it to guide you on your path.
Invite some gentle stretching to your physical body and when you're ready open your eyes.
