Culitvate a life you love by first stimulating your relaxation response into a meditation practice. Then visualise either your short, long or lifetime goal in order to manifest it into your life by opening up your mind's filters. This is a great meditation to use to develop your Sankalpa (a life long goal which is aligned with your truth and in the name of the highest good) for any Yoga Nidra Practice. Have a pen or pencil ready at the end to write down what you see and your Sankalpa if it makes itself known to you.

Transcript

The purpose of these guided words is to give you the space and time you need to visualize your life the way you would love it to be.

It starts with a relaxation to calm you.

Next there will be a visualization where you will be given some time to see what success looks like for you.

It ends with a call to action,

For a dream without action is just a dream.

A dream with actions becomes a goal.

It will be handy to have a pen and paper nearby.

Pause the meditation if you need to.

Soul gardening is about exploring life purpose goals,

Planting the right seeds of thought in our minds to create the most magnificent blooms that we want to display in our garden of life.

It's time to get comfortable in either a seated or lying down position.

Close your eyes.

Open your mind and your heart.

I invite you when you take your next breath to just become more aware of breathing.

Allow your breath to bring you into the present moment.

Breathing in and out through your nose.

As you inhale,

Nurture yourself.

And as you exhale,

Release any negative tension,

Stress,

And emotion.

Feel your connection to the earth.

Feel the earth supporting your body.

Tuck your chin in slightly.

Your neck is long and relaxed.

Imagine the crown of your head being drawn up as if it's attached to a helium balloon.

Relax your eyes.

Relax your ears.

Relax your jaw.

Relax your shoulders down like butter melting on a hot summer's day.

Quiet your mind.

Let your thoughts go by like leaves drifting down a steady stream.

Bring your attention to your breath.

Allow it to bring you into the present moment where you are safe and relaxed.

Today I am offering you the gift of time and space to visualize your life the way that you would love it to be.

What you want to do.

Who you want to be.

How you would like to show up in this world.

A quality or characteristic that you'd like to have.

Your unique version of success and happiness for you.

Imagine as though you have it right now.

Really allow yourself to believe in this moment where you have already achieved what you're calling for.

Notice what's around you.

Colors,

Textures,

Objects,

Other people,

Your environment.

Savor and be aware of this moment when you have achieved what you are calling for right now.

Peaks and Now step outside of your body as if you are watching yourself.

Place your posture,

Any expression on your face,

Your interactions with your physical surroundings and also the objects and people within them.

Use the following time to fully observe yourself interacting with the surroundings around you as if you were looking at yourself.

Now step outside of your body as if you were looking at yourself.

Returning to your body now,

Allow yourself to go deep inside of you to where your emotions and feelings are.

How does it feel to have achieved your version of success?

Tune into the feelings and emotions that you are experiencing when you have achieved your most loved life.

Stop it for a full minute starting now.

Now step outside of your body as if you were looking at yourself.

Returning to your body now,

Allow yourself to go deep inside of you to where your emotions and feelings are.

Stop it for a full minute starting now.

Stop it for a full minute starting now.

The key to achieving life purpose goals is to keep your mind on what you want and off the things you don't want.

Your brain filters stimuli from your environment so that you don't become overwhelmed by the data that surrounds you in each and every moment.

Your subconscious mind doesn't know the difference between what is real and what is not.

It does not judge you.

I suggest creating a one sentence goal that you can repeat at least twice daily.

Writing your goals in the present tense as if you have already achieved them,

Tricks your mind into adapting your brain's filters.

You will notice things around you which will support you and move you towards your life purpose goal.

Begin writing goal sentences with the words I am or I have.

By repeating soul gardening daily,

You will be giving your subconscious mind visuals the most primitive and easiest way to communicate to your brain.

This will benefit you to become aware of the things in life you did not notice before.

It's the way the human brain is programmed.

I encourage you when this recording ends to write down as much information that you can remember.

Pictures are worth a thousand words.

Pictures speak more directly to our brains.

I encourage you to create or find an image which depicts your life purpose goal.

Put it somewhere prominent where you can see it often.

Some people create vision boards.

Pay attention to your environment.

Be open to what comes your way.

Be prepared to say yes and to take actions which move you towards success.

Remember that at any time the busyness of life takes over and you feel you have lost sight of your life purpose goal,

You can return to soul garden whenever you need.

Now slowly open your eyes.

Turning to the world around you.

Grab a pen and start writing.

You are creating a life you love.

It seems to be a brilliant and gentle and well guided meditation, and the soundtrack is perfectly suited as well- I was interrupted halfway through so I will have to return to it.

This is great. It's the perfect length and the visualization works wonders for me. I'd found something similar a while back that really helped me to manifest but I haven't been able to find a comparable one since, until I saw this. I'm really glad I found it!
