Go ahead and find a comfortable position.
Letting your hands rest open in your lap.
Closing down your eyes.
And then taking a big deep breath in through the nose.
And a long,
Slow exhale out of your mouth.
Again,
Inhaling.
Filling it up all the way.
And then letting it go.
One more time,
A big deep breath in… and then sign it all out.
Just let the external world begin to quiet down.
And in your mind's eye,
I want you to imagine that you're standing outside.
It's early morning.
That particular kind of quiet of a summer morning before the heat of the day has arrived.
And the air is still soft and cool and fresh.
The light is golden and just beginning to find its way up over the horizon and across the sky.
And you're standing in a garden.
A beautiful but slightly wild and untouched garden.
This rich,
Dark soil is all around you.
And it's alive and full of potential.
You can smell it.
That deep earthy,
Nourishing smell of fresh soil ready to receive.
And you feel the ground beneath your feet.
And you know standing here.
That this is your garden.
This is the second half of your year.
Now I want you to bring to mind the word,
The feeling,
The intention or the theme that you want to carry into the next six months.
If you don't have anything in particular in mind yet.
Take a moment to reflect on what seed you want to plant.
You don't need to force it,
But just let it come.
And when it arrives.
And it will.
Hold it gently in your hands.
And see it there,
The intention.
And now looking down at your hands,
You can see that resting in your palm is a small seed.
A seed holds everything.
Your word,
Your feeling.
Your intention for the months ahead.
Everything that you want to grow.
Everything that you are ready to become.
It is all right here.
And now crouch down to the earth in front of you.
And feel the cool soil under your fingers as you press your hand gently into the ground and make a small hole in the earth for what you're about to plant.
And hold your seed over that space for a moment.
Before you place it in the ground,
Speak your intention clearly into it.
Tell it what you want to grow.
And then gently,
With intention,
Place your seed into the earth.
Cover it softly with the soil around it.
And be pressing it down a bit,
Grounding your intention.
And now place both hands flat on the earth for a moment.
Feel the warmth of it under your palms.
And know that this seed you've just planted is already being received.
The Earth knows how to do this.
And now take a few big,
Deep,
Easy breaths.
As you let the image of the garden stay with you.
For a few more moments.
As you rest in gratitude for all that is coming your way.
And for the way your seed will be nourished and supported as it grows.
And begin to bring a little movement back.
Wiggling the fingers and toes.
Rolling the shoulders.
And taking one more big breath in.
And then letting it go.
Than when you're ready.
Gently open your eyes.
And return to the here and now.
Thank you so much for being here,
For joining me for this audio workshop,
And I hope everything that you are manifesting comes to you with ease in the next six months.
