Thank you for being here,

You are so welcome here,

Close your eyes and notice your breathing,

Feel your breath moving in your belly,

Feel your chest and your back ribs expanding,

Slow down your exhale,

Relax your shoulders and soften your jaw,

Feel your mind,

Your energy retreat to your back body,

Feel your energy moving down and back towards the earth,

I'm going to guide you around your body,

Notice and feel into each part of your body as I name it,

Breathe into it and touch it with sacred light,

Starting with the soles of your feet,

Both feet together,

Notice the bottoms of your feet,

Place your awareness effortlessly at your feet,

Imagine you can breathe through your feet,

Bring breath and golden light into your body through the soles of your feet,

Breathe in and out of the soles of your feet,

Can you feel any sensations there,

Any warmth or tingling or energy,

Touch your awareness on all 10 toes,

The tops of your feet,

Your ankles,

Your shins,

Sacred golden light follows your awareness as you travel around your body,

To your knees,

Your thighs,

Your pelvis,

Your hips,

Your waist,

Your belly softening and relaxing,

Light radiating and expanding along the front of your body from your toes to your belly centre,

Imagine you can breathe in and out of your navel,

Breathe into your belly,

Bring breath and golden light into your body through your belly,

Your navel and out of your navel,

Golden light follows your awareness up from your belly to your heart space,

Touch it with healing light,

Fill your heart space with warmth and love and wholeness,

Breathe into your heart,

Bring breath and golden light into your body through your heart and out of your heart,

Make each breath smooth,

Quiet and effortless,

Move your awareness up to your collar bones,

Your throat,

Warm healing energy to open your voice,

Your expression,

Your story,

Your chin,

Your jaw,

Your mouth,

Your lips,

Your tongue floating lightly in your mouth,

Your cheeks,

Nose,

Both ears,

Both eyes,

Your eyelashes,

Your eyebrows,

Up to your third eye connecting to your wisdom,

The top of your head,

Light radiating and expanding along the front of your body from your toes to your belly to the top of your head,

Imagine you're wearing a sacred crown of dancing light,

The front of your body is glowing in soft,

Warm,

Golden light,

Continuing your journey around your body,

Golden light follows your awareness to the back of your head,

Back of your neck,

Backs of your shoulders softening and spreading,

Down your arms,

Elbows,

Forearms,

Wrists,

Light spreading to your hands and fingertips,

Open your palms towards the sky,

Imagine you can breathe through your palms,

Bring breath and golden light into your body,

Through the palms of your hands,

In and out of the palms of your hands,

Travelling back up your arms and to the back of your heart,

Your awareness on the back of your heart,

Fill your heart space with warmth and love and wholeness,

Breathe into your heart,

Bring breath and golden light into your body through the back of your heart,

Breathe in and out of your heart,

Make each breath smooth,

Quiet and effortless,

Notice your back body releasing,

The muscles along your spine and between your ribs softening and spreading,

Middle back,

Lower back,

Sacred golden light follows your awareness,

Back of your hips and pelvis,

Back of your thighs,

Back of your knees,

Your calves,

Your heels,

Coming home to the soles of your feet and all ten toes,

The back of your body is glowing in sparkling light,

Your whole body is glowing,

Bathed in a circle of golden light,

Your whole body is radiating light in all directions,

Inside and out,

Your whole body is light,

Soft,

Warm,

Golden,

Sparkling light,

You're floating on light,

Feeling deeply relaxed,

Warm,

Safe and held,

Your awareness is no longer anchored to the landmarks of your physical body,

You have become a field of light,

Expanding in all directions,

All planes,

All dimensions,

You are taking up infinite space,

You are powerful,

Expanding infinitely with infinite possibility,

There is nothing that is not you,

You exist in everything and everything exists in you,

You are the whole sky,

You are the sun,

The moon,

Every single star,

Every single beating heart,

Every tree,

All of the oceans,

The deepest earth,

You are formless and free,

It's time to return home,

Our meditation is coming to an end,

Slowly move your hands to rest them on your body,

On your belly or heart,

Feel the warmth,

Weight and connection of your hands resting gently there,

Feel your breath moving beneath your hands,

Listen for any sounds in the room,

Any sounds in the distance,

Blink open your eyes to welcome the light,

Take in the colours and the objects nearby,

Take note of the room that you're in and where you're lying in the space,

Welcome home,

Namaste.
