This captivating journey takes you into an enchanted forest to the river of Serenity, where you experience the pure magic and miracles of nature, and become more aware of your connection with it and its ability to assist you in opening your heart to deeper levels of the love you already are and have always been. As it weaves its magic it promotes deep relaxation, and joy, alleviating fear, and anxiety, and assisting with the integration of the powerful energies that are now flowing during this time of great awakening. It also shows you how everything is always communicating with us and that we just need to take time to slow down, be still, and pay attention. Everything in this beautiful guided meditation comes from my heart as I have experienced it all and know firsthand the magic and beauty of nature. The soothing, soulful exquisite music that accompanies the journey was created by Leah Hidalgo, a very gifted musician. May it delight you and infuse you with its love. Namaste.

Welcome to the River of Serenity,

A journey where nature weaves its magic,

Assisting you to reconnect with it,

Opening you up to higher levels of yourself,

Along with helping you to integrate and align with incredible and powerful energetic shifts happening at this evolutionary time,

As well as create a beautiful environment that promotes deep relaxation,

Inner peace and joy,

Your natural way.

It is so important to take time to be with yourself and nature as you are a part of it,

Interdependent and now awakening to this realization.

So get yourself comfortable and then close your eyes.

Now bring your attention to your breathing,

Without changing anything,

Just observe.

Notice how you are feeling,

How your body is feeling.

Now shift your attention to sounds you hear around you,

Outside of you,

Beginning with the ones that stand out,

And now to the more subtle ones.

Now bring your attention back to your body,

Feeling the surface you are sitting or lying on,

Feeling your clothes against your skin.

Come back to your breath,

Noticing that as you breathe in,

The air is cool as it flows in through your nose,

And then how it is warmer as you breathe out.

Now together,

Let's take three long,

Slow deep breaths,

As deep as you can,

From your belly or abdomen,

And as you breathe out,

Allow yourself to let go,

To begin to fully relax,

Releasing all tension,

And being fully present here now to enjoy the journey.

Ready?

Deep breath in,

And out,

Again in,

And out,

Once more,

Deep breath in,

And out.

Now go back to your regular breathing,

And notice how you feel.

Gently scan through your body,

And if any areas of tension appear,

Breathe into them,

Telling them to relax.

Now I'm going to count down from 10 to 1,

And as I do so,

Allow my voice to guide you deeper.

Give yourself permission to completely let go,

Knowing all is well.

If you like,

You can imagine you are a feather or a leaf that is very gently floating to the ground.

In this relaxed space,

Find yourself in the countryside,

On a beautiful sunny day.

You are barefoot and can feel the soft grass beneath you.

You are standing at the edge of a small wooden bridge,

And at the other side is a magnificent forest.

As you begin to walk over the bridge,

You can feel its magic,

And a sense of excitement starts to bubble up.

You reach the other side,

And the moment you step off the bridge and stand at the entrance to the forest,

It's like you've been transported into another world.

Feeling a sense of great joy and anticipation,

You enter,

And instantly feel the magic flow through your body.

You immediately feel lighter,

More expanded and joyful.

As you look around,

It's as though everything has like a radiance about it.

Everything here is so healthy and vibrant,

And you notice that you too feel more alive and energized already,

And you've only just entered.

With a big smile on your face and your heart lit up,

You begin to walk along the path,

Feeling a childlike sense of adventure bubbling inside.

I wonder what magical adventure I'm going to experience today,

You think to yourself.

As you continue walking,

You listen to the birds singing their songs to you,

Feeling the sounds flow right through you.

You notice the golden rays of the sun filtering through the trees,

The leaves shining in the sunlight,

And feel the magic of this enchanting place.

Every cell in your body is vibrating.

You suddenly come across a huge tree,

And it stops you in your tracks.

As you stand there,

You can feel its energy,

And feel drawn to go and connect with it.

So you go over and place your hands on it,

And then quietly stand there.

Your attention then moves to your hands,

And as you focus on your palms and fingertips,

You feel the energy flowing,

And the tree connecting with you.

You listen,

And it telepathically then says,

Welcome.

You can feel the magic being here,

Which makes us all so happy.

In the other world you live,

Many humans are not in tune with nature,

Or believe in magic,

And so do not notice what is around them all the time.

Here though you do.

Doesn't it feel great to feel this connection to everything?

Nature is magical,

Beautiful,

And can bring such joy,

Inspiration,

Inner peace,

And contentment,

If people would only slow down,

And go and be outside more often,

Away from the technology that tends to isolate them,

Not only from nature and other people,

But also themselves.

Everything is there,

Just waiting for them.

You are part of nature,

Which is why you feel so good in it.

And there is a great change happening on this earth,

At this time.

Powerful new energies are flowing in,

And it is so important to ground and integrate them by being outside,

Connecting with the kingdoms.

Great wisdom is shared by nature,

As it knows how to live in accordance to the natural rhythms of life,

Which most humans have forgotten.

By you coming and spending time here,

You are able to become more aware of this,

And your life will change accordingly.

And so you will leave feeling like a new you.

Come now,

Let me guide you to your destination.

Keep following the path,

And you will come to the beautiful river of serenity,

Where great beauty and magic await you.

It was a pleasure to meet you,

And I look forward to seeing you again soon.

In your mind,

You say thank you,

Giving the tree a big hug,

And with your heart buzzing with love,

You continue along the path,

Almost skipping with joy.

The path continues for a while,

And you continue to notice all the beauty that surrounds you,

And listening to the birds sing to you.

The path then leads around a corner,

And as you turn,

You find yourself at the riverbank,

And you instantly understand why it is called the river of serenity.

It is a stunning sight,

And you sit upon the soft grass and observe.

The river is quite narrow and shallow.

You can see the stones on the riverbed,

As the water is so clear.

There are huge willow trees either side as far as you can see,

With branches draping across the water surface.

Wildflowers of all colors,

Shapes and sizes covers the banks,

And the fragrances that fill the air are just exquisite.

The birds are buzzing,

As they gather the pollen from the flowers,

And the sun shines gently,

Sending out golden rays,

And there is a soft warm breeze.

It is so beautiful and tranquil,

And again,

You know why it is called the river of serenity.

The sun sparkles on the water surface like diamonds,

And a gentle breeze creates ripples across it.

As you sit and watch this,

Suddenly the golden sparkles begin to amplify,

And move as if they are dancing.

These are the elementals,

And they are dancing,

Welcoming you.

As you continue to watch in awe,

They suddenly change,

And to become green pyramids.

You close your eyes thinking you are imagining this,

And when you open them,

There they still are.

You know they are playing with you,

And feel such joy with this realization.

Oh the magic of this place.

They feel your joy,

And multiply,

Suddenly changing again,

This time into pink hearts.

There in front of you are hundreds of pink,

Sparkling lights,

Dancing on the water,

Just like a symphony playing.

Your heart just overflows with love,

As you witness this beautiful and magical sight.

You get so clearly how everything truly is interconnected,

And communicating all the time.

And as the tree shared,

Why it is so important to spend time in nature,

And just observe.

This makes your love and reverence for nature instantly deepen,

And as you watch,

You can feel something magical happening within you.

Your attention is then drawn to the wind,

Blowing gently through the willow trees.

They too are speaking to you,

And you realize once more that everything is constantly communicating with you,

And that it's not about language.

Everything is energy,

Vibration,

Consciousness,

And it's about being fully present,

Feeling the energy,

And the sense of knowing.

It is to do with love as everything is born of love,

From all that is,

From God,

Source,

Creator,

The Universe,

Whatever term you are comfortable with.

The more our hearts open to the love we already are,

And have always been,

And the more we appreciate these beautiful kingdoms,

The more enriched our lives become,

The more magical life becomes.

And we see things from a different perspective.

You realize this is how life is meant to be experienced,

And that this is your natural way,

And your heart opens to another level.

All of a sudden,

You see a tiny boat coming up the river,

And it stops right beside you.

You notice in amazement that it has your name on it,

And it is filled with big fluffy cushions.

You know it is here to take you on a journey,

And so you step into it and snuggle into the cushions.

Then the little boat gently begins to move and flows down the river of serenity.

As you sit snuggled into the cushions,

You look around you.

Above you,

The blue sky is dotted with white puffy clouds,

And you watch as an eagle soars through the currents,

Noticing how effortlessly it flies.

You understand the message it is sharing,

That it is about flowing with life in each moment.

Your attention then goes to other birds flying,

As well as sitting in the trees singing their melodies,

Each one having its own unique song to share with the world.

As you listen,

You can feel their sounds flow through you,

And understand that they are sharing information with you in this way,

And you receive that you too have a uniqueness to share with the world,

And by tuning within,

You will know what that is if you don't already.

Your attention is then drawn to the riverbank,

Where you see a family of rabbits playing,

The little ones chasing each other,

Leaping in the air.

And a deer on the other side with her fawns,

Resting beside her in the soft grass,

Basking in the sunshine,

Reminding you of the importance of playing and relaxing.

A pair of majestic swans swim by you,

And you notice the cygnets resting in between their wings.

Then a family of ducks,

Proud parents,

Showing off their young to you too,

As the little ones follow along behind them in a line.

All of these beautiful beings come to share their love with you,

And remind you that life is about being together,

And playing not taking life so seriously.

Your attention is now drawn to the water,

And you see water lilies floating on the surface,

In full bloom,

Dotted all along the river.

Along with the flowers covering the riverbanks,

Their fragrances permeating the air,

It is truly a sight to behold.

You watch as dragonflies dart back and forth across the water,

Their wings shimmering in the sunlight,

And butterflies dancing lightly from one flower to another,

Feeding off the nectar.

One of them comes and lands on you.

Look closely at this magnificent being.

Its delicate and beautiful structure,

And its colors,

And contemplate how it came into its form,

Starting as a caterpillar,

Then a chrysalis,

Where it completely dissolves into liquid nothingness,

And transforms into a butterfly,

All naturally,

With no questioning,

No resistance,

No fear,

Just flowing.

Oh the magic and beauty of nature.

You notice how in love with life you feel at this moment,

How peaceful and joyful you feel.

This is your natural way.

For the next few minutes,

Just relax and absorb this magnificence.

Allow yourself to totally open up and receive as it weaves its magic.

Feel the gentle warmth of the sun,

The soft breeze as they caress you,

The fragrances and the sounds of nature that infuse your being,

All of which transmit information that you receive subconsciously.

Feel the oneness with them all,

For they are a part of you,

And helping you to remember who you truly are,

And that there is no separation.

You become aware that the little boat is back at the riverbank where you were sitting.

Filled with such deep gratitude,

You stand up and gently step out,

Climbing back up the bank,

Where you then look around you,

Your heart wide open,

Love flowing freely,

So in awe at how you feel,

And the knowing that you are connected with,

One with,

This incredible beauty and magic that surrounds you.

You can feel the love that nature has for you,

Enveloping you in that love,

And you know you have opened up to more of who you truly are,

And that your life will reflect that change in beautiful and magical ways.

You are reminded of the saying,

Be the change you want to see in the world,

And the power you have to radiate your love out into the world,

Just being you,

So more people can awaken to this beauty,

This magic and joy within themselves,

And the interconnection with this amazing planet and her kingdoms.

You begin to make your way back along the path in the forest,

Senses heightened,

Feeling,

Hearing and seeing in a new way,

Eliciting such joy,

You feel lighter,

Freer,

And you suddenly notice you are radiating a golden glow.

You then notice that everything in this enchanted forest is glowing too,

Each radiating its own energy field,

Communicating with you,

And as you become aware of this,

You feel yourself expanding more,

And merging with them,

And it's though your body disappears,

And you are just light,

Even though you are still aware that you are walking or gliding along the path.

This is who you truly are,

A being of pure love,

Light,

That is one with all of creation,

And bit by bit,

Step by step,

You are awakening to this realization,

And one day you will live this way naturally again,

Just like the butterfly emerging out of its cocoon.

You come to the edge of the forest and stop,

You turn around,

And allow yourself to just receive the love that is there for you,

So strong and powerful,

Yet so gentle and soft,

And you realize this is how we change the world,

One by one,

Radiating out our love into the world,

Sharing our uniqueness,

And allowing it to weave its magic,

Co-creating a new world,

One of unity,

Love,

Joy,

And harmony.

You then give thanks,

And promise to return soon.

You walk out of the forest,

And over the wooden bridge,

Stopping for a moment to reflect.

What a magical journey,

How magical life really is,

And it's there all the time,

Just waiting for us to wake up.

You then close your eyes,

And allow yourself to absorb it all,

To contemplate everything you have just experienced.

It is time for you to leave this place for now,

Knowing you can return any time you choose to do so.

As I count from 1 to 10,

Allow my voice to bring you gently back to this reality,

This present moment,

Bringing those natural feelings of joy,

Love,

And peace with you.

Start to become aware of your body,

Become aware of your breathing,

Just observe how soft and relaxed it is.

Notice your body sitting or lying on the surface,

Feeling it against it,

Listen to the sounds around you.

Now bring your attention back to your body,

And take a few long,

Slow,

Deep breaths in and out,

Grounding yourself fully back here.

Begin to wiggle your toes and your fingers,

And now gently stretch your body,

Arms and your legs.

And only when you feel ready,

Open your eyes and continue on your journey,

Knowing that you have awakened to more of who you truly are and your connection to all of creation.

Until next time,

Namaste.
