Claude Monet said,
My wish is to stay always like this,
Living quietly in a corner of nature.
In tonight's dreamy adventure,
You can take a stroll in Monet's ethereal worlds,
His corners of nature,
And lose yourself in the beauty of his paintings.
My name is Luna and I will be your guide.
This guided visualization is meant to relax you deeply.
So if at any time you'll feel like sleeping,
Feel free to let go of my voice and drift off to sleep.
Now,
Imagine being in a lush garden.
In the middle of the garden there is a little alley where you can stroll for a little while.
The earth beneath your feet is reddish.
On either side of the alley you can see so many colorful dots.
White dots,
Red dots,
Pink dots.
These are countless beds of flowers where multiple varieties grow.
You can see and smell roses,
Poppies,
And daisies.
You can see rows of pink and purple irises under large trees that drape over them.
The trees protect you from the heat of the sun.
The temperature is perfect.
This garden is your retreat.
You feel quiet and happy here.
Flowers grow freely in the garden.
Flowers are your companions.
You're able to caress them as you walk along the alley.
You can feel their petals under your fingertips.
You can feel their softness.
You can feel them close to you.
They're like silent friends,
Friendly and beneficial parts of your life.
Now imagine yourself standing on a wooden bridge.
All around you is a lush scenery.
But it's different from the garden.
Under the bridge you're standing on you can see a pond.
The water reflects the colors of nature,
Especially blues and greens.
The light hitting the surface of the water causes these shades to change continuously.
Anyway,
What you see are all pastel colors,
Very delicate and dreamy.
Plenty of pretty water lilies float on the water.
All of a sudden you realize how enchanting is this pond.
You can hear the calming sound of the water.
You can feel the warm sun rays on your skin.
You can smell watery and green notes.
The gentle breeze blows floral scents softly around.
Around you there are some majestic weeping willows with their gently swaying foliage.
The vegetation and the leaves have no clear outlines.
You can see green hues that layer on top of each other and play to form shades as your gaze moves around the scenery.
From up here you feel totally immersed in this fairy tale landscape.
The scenery changes once again.
This time imagine yourself standing on a pier.
In front of you is the wonderful view of a harbor.
The morning mist makes all colors muted.
The sky takes on pastel gray hues.
The rippling water reflects the colors of the sky.
The silhouettes of two small boats slowly glide over the water and get closer to you.
You can recognize tiny silhouettes of fishermen returning to the harbor.
Far away a number of other more blurred elements.
What's mesmerizing about this morning view is the sun,
Whose reflection stretches across the water in thick strokes of intense orange.
The sun is orange and its warmth is perceived in the pink color taken on by some clouds.
Some shy sun rays are warming your skin.
You can smell the salt water of the sea and the ethereal smell of mist.
You can smell hay,
Wheat and chamomile.
You realize that the image has changed and now you are in a field.
You can see some hills and trees in the distance.
Near you are two haystacks.
The light of this world is constantly changing.
Imagine this landscape in bright sunlight.
Now it's sunset and the colors get warmer.
Now everything is surrounded with mist and the landscape becomes more ethereal.
Now the haystacks and the field are covered in white frost.
This rural landscape is replaced by another one.
You find yourself standing in a huge field.
It's a warm summer day and white clouds are floating in a clear blue sky.
Under your feet is a muted green grass.
This green color contrasts with hundreds of red dots.
Some of them are light red,
But others are very bright.
These are poppies.
There are hundreds of poppies here.
Imagine lying down in this meadow among the flowers.
Feel the softness of the grass,
The smell of the earth.
Here you feel peaceful and serene.
You are centered,
Calm and quiet.
The grass is tall.
It makes you feel protected.
It's moved by a light breeze.
You can hear its rustle.
Everything is okay.
Take a deep breath and feel the calmness in your body.
You could easily fall asleep in this poppy field.
You can dream about living quietly in a beautiful corner of nature.
