Transcript

Authentically you,

Shedding your false self.

Close your eyes,

Inhale deeply,

And exhale out all thoughts,

Worries,

And concerns for the day.

Become completely present in the moment,

Open to receive and willing to release.

Open sacred space inviting in the life force that connects us all to impart wisdom,

Light your path,

And fill you with love.

Allow for the establishment of a pure connection between yourself and source,

Free from ego,

And willingly release anything that could interfere with the clear interpretation of the wisdom coming forth.

Come into your sacred heart,

That part of you where soul self meets physical self,

Knowing,

Understanding,

And having full faith that all you seek lies within.

Set the intention of this meditation to consciously withdraw conscious or subconscious attachments to your false self so that you may move forward as your authentic self.

Ask your ego to open to the possibility that change can be easy.

Look at your motivations for attention and ask your heart to show you how to have your needs met in the most beneficial of ways.

Excuse yourself from the need to make excuses.

Accept what is so that you may create what will be without the need for distraction.

Allow this to be done with ease and grace and for your highest good in a way that allows you to thrive.

Radiate pure energy and love out from your heart as they are poured down into you from source and channeled up into you from the center of the earth.

Grow that energy and love outwards in all directions,

Filling your entire physical being,

Your auric field,

And perfusing your intention.

Open to receive divine guidance and connect with your assistance for this meditation.

Begin to visualize or imagine radiant white light flowing throughout your arteries and veins,

Filling your heart and lungs the very air you breathe.

Allow this light to cleanse and purify your thoughts and your blood and to fill your entire being with a sense of peace.

As this peace washes over you,

Begin consciously connecting with your authentic self.

Connect with him or her through your third eye and through your heart,

Awakening his or her spirit more fully within your DNA so that you may merge deeper and deeper into oneness with him or her,

Initiating millions of new connections within your nervous system now.

Prepare to embark on a magical treasure hunt where you will collect all of the things you need to remember who you are and who you were meant to be.

These things that you collect may have a different meaning for you than they will have for anyone else.

They are special.

They are just for you.

Imagine that you are in an enchanted forest.

Orient yourself to your surroundings and breathe in peacefully,

Knowing that you are safe.

There is nothing to fear and everyone you will meet along the way is there to help you.

Close by,

You hear the crackling and smell the smoke of a welcoming campfire and you begin walking towards it.

Once you arrive at the campfire,

You find your ego waiting for you.

Your ego is filled with fears,

Worries,

And reasons why you shouldn't change.

Fill your ego with love and let it know that it is safe.

Let it know that you are ready to move beyond your current situation and into the life that is waiting for you.

As you fill your ego with love,

All of its fears,

Worries,

And reasons are thrown into the fire.

Your ego is transformed by love and it becomes willing to help you change.

It surrenders to your desires and gifts you with a blue topaz heart.

Fill your ego with gratitude and place the blue topaz heart into your pocket.

Continue along in the enchanted forest until you come to a fork in your path.

The passage to the left is barely visible and you may have trouble seeing where it goes.

The passage to the right is well worn and very familiar to you.

You are tempted to follow the road to the right but then you hear a voice calling out to you from the left.

The sound of this voice is so pure and it touches your heart in such a way that you know you must follow it.

It is the sound of your true self.

It is the part of you who remembers your divine plan and knows exactly what to do and what to let go of so that you may reach your true potential.

You begin to cautiously follow the sound of the voice.

Your steps are unsure at first because the path hasn't been very well kept.

The more you move forward,

The more confidence you gain and the more sure-footed you become.

Even though the path is narrow and sometimes difficult to discern,

You become very comfortable on it.

The sound of your true self waits for you to catch up.

You are filled with love and an amethyst rose is placed into your right hand.

Place the rose in your pocket and continue moving forward.

As your comfort level increases,

Your path begins to widen.

You hear a river gently flowing in the distance and eventually your trail comes alongside of it.

There is a boulder along the river's edge that looks like the perfect place to rest,

Catch your breath,

And reflect upon your journey thus far.

As you focus on the flowing water,

You begin to become aware of how some of the decisions you have made have affected your life.

You begin to see that in many of these instances,

You made things more difficult than they needed to be.

You begin to see that you were often avoiding the exact thing you desired.

In fact,

You may even have made some excuses as to why you couldn't have the object of your desires.

There were times when you thought you were taking a shortcut,

But you were really taking the long way around.

As you project this new awareness into the water,

The water begins to wash away the effects of all of these thoughts and decisions.

As they are washed away,

You are left with an emerald rhinoceros.

Place it in your pocket and prepare to move forward once more.

You return to your path feeling more peaceful,

More aware,

And more willing to do things differently.

This feeling is fleeting though as you continue along your path and come to a steep rise.

You want to move forward,

But you're not sure you have what it takes to make it up such a steep incline.

You are tempted into distraction by the beautiful river you left behind.

You are distracted by the idea that there may be an easier way and you consider looking for it.

Without even testing your abilities,

You begin to convince yourself that you don't have what it takes to continue on and to finish your journey.

You are flooded with a sense of failure and you are not sure what to do.

You wonder how you could have been brought along all this way only to have to quit.

And then you hear a faint but audible cry from deep within your heart.

This cry commands your attention and it begins to change your thought processes.

You begin to question what you see.

You begin to wonder what if going up the steep incline is the easier way.

You begin to trust that all you have experienced along this journey so far has prepared you to rise to every challenge.

As this cry grows louder and louder and rises to the surface,

It is made manifest into a crystal clear diamond.

You place the diamond in your hand along with all of the other treasures you have collected.

The topaz heart,

The amethyst rose,

And the emerald rhinoceros.

They begin to shimmer and shake.

They are joined together and they are transformed.

What you are left with is a crown of light filled with infinite beauty.

As it is placed upon your head,

It awakens a profound sense of knowingness within you.

In this moment,

You know that you have all you need to make it to the top.

In fact,

As you claim this knowingness,

You direct your attention to the top.

You place one foot in front of the other and you climb easily and effortlessly towards the summit.

You arrive before you can think of a reason why what you've just experienced shouldn't have been possible.

As you reach the peak,

All that held you back is transformed.

You are awakened to the true purpose of all you have experienced and you see very clearly how to use it so that you may live your purpose.

You are filled with love,

Joy,

And gratitude.

Your entire perspective on life is shifted and you truly know that anything is possible.

As this meditation comes to an end,

Begin turning your attention inward toward any void or space left behind from all that you have released today.

Fill the void with unconditional love for yourself,

Your choices,

And your path and gratitude for your teachers,

Your lessons,

And your opportunities to learn and grow.

Allow the vibration of those spaces to rise so high that nothing less than love could ever thrive there again.

Allow for full and complete integration of this new level of healing into your being on a cellular level in the now moment with ease and grace and in accordance with your highest good.

Offer up this new level of awareness to anyone in the world who would like to claim it for themselves.

With love and gratitude in your heart,

Close this sacred space.

Allow your awareness to come back into your body,

Back into the room.

Slowly and gently wiggle your fingers and your toes,

And when you are ready,

Open your eyes.

Beautiful visualization and exactly what I needed in this moment

Very beautiful and nicely done. Iโ€™m glad I read some reviews and Kateโ€™s responses before listening as it prepared me to go with the flow without worrying that every word and image may not be fully sinking in. Iโ€™m holding on to images and feelings I received, and am curious to see what the day will bring. Thank you Kate, for this impressive journey and Iโ€™m highly looking forward to repeating this one and the others in the series. Sending you love, gratitude and well wishes ๐Ÿ™โ™ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜Š

Wow! This meditation had some pretty strong physical effects on me. I appreciate the fast pace โ€œwarningโ€ and the instructions to just go with it.

Thank you ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ Kate for confirming what I received about 10 days ago: โ€œI canโ€™t BE myself until I see๐Ÿ‘ myself!โ€ My mindโ€™s eye๐Ÿ‘ has been seeing ever since, that a change is impending. I love ๐Ÿ’• the reference to the Ego being filled with fear, worry, and reasons why you shouldnโ€™t change, because Iโ€™ve been fighting off these reasons for quite some time now. I AM definitely ready to step into change. My current state of BEing is no longer working for me ... my True self is breaking through the barriers, as I AM now filling the Ego with love!๐Ÿฅฐ

I am glad I read other reviews saying this moves at a fast pace. The creator of this meditation says that it is so you learn to accept things as they come. Cool idea. She also suggests listening to it several times to really absorb everything.

Melissa

This a really powerful. My only wish is that the pace was a little slower so that my mind coukd catch up with each stop I made and each token I received. But it is worth repeating and I'm sure I will be able to absorb those things as o do repeat it. Looking forward to parts 2 and 3!!
