Hello,
Welcome to your very own meditation.
Find a comfortable place to sit or lie.
Pausing this recording if you need to go and find a blanket or a pillow or something cozy to make you comfortable.
Get cozy and lay in a comfortable position as you gently close your eyes and listen to the music of my voice.
Taking a deep breath in and a deep breath out,
Letting your body relax and together we're going to go on a magic carpet ride.
And now that you're walking into a garden,
And this garden is filled with the greenest grass you've ever seen.
The trees are full of autumn leaves,
Golds and oranges,
Browns and reds.
And the trees are blowing gently in the wind,
Making that soft,
Swishing rustling sound.
You can hear some birds singing and some squirrels are running across the grass looking for nuts to feed themselves.
And in the corner of your eye you can see something that is full of all of your favourite colours.
It's laying on the grass and you walk over to it.
When you get to it you notice that it is a carpet.
The carpet is just a little bit bigger than you are and it's full of your favourite colours and patterns that you really,
Really love.
So take a minute to imagine this magic carpet,
The colours and the patterns.
And you gently decide to sit on this magic carpet,
Feeling how it feels under your hand.
And as you enjoy this beautiful colour and texture and pattern,
It gently starts to lift off the ground.
And you feel excited and happy as this magic carpet gently lifts into the sky.
It starts moving through the sky and through the fall trees.
And beneath you,
You can see waterfalls,
Rivers,
Flowers,
Houses.
And soon you can not only see the things that you know,
You start to see some new things.
You start to see different lands.
Perhaps you see unicorns,
Or you see dinosaurs,
Or you see castles,
Or you see a magic land that is full of balloons and bouncy castles and bubbles blowing around.
For you to imagine a favourite place to be,
A place full of magic,
What would it look like to you?
What things would be in this place?
What colours?
What smells?
What sounds?
Imagine for a moment that you're in this magical place made just for you.
Imagining what would be there.
And you gently start to land on your magic carpet in this magical place you've created.
And as you land,
You step off.
And step by step,
You wander around this magical place,
Noticing all the details.
And out of the corner of the eye,
Comes an animal.
And this animal is soft and friendly and smiling and is so happy to see you.
And you walk up to this animal.
The animal says welcome,
I'm so happy you've come to your magical place.
And take a moment to notice what the animal is.
The colour of its fur or skin.
The colour of its eyes.
And you and this animal start to walk this magical place together.
You decide to sit up against a tree,
Relaxing for a moment together.
Listening to the sounds,
Smelling the smells,
Watching as things go by.
Imagining if even here in your magical place,
If the colour of the sky is different.
Perhaps the sky here is purple or pink or green.
Perhaps the grass is a different colour too.
Perhaps there are unusual animals that you've never seen before.
Take some time with your animal friend,
Just being in this magical place,
Leaning up against this tree.
And in this place,
You feel happy.
You feel safe.
Leaning against your animal friend in your magical land.
And soon your friend tells you that it's time to go back onto your magical carpet,
Back to your own time,
Your own home.
He also says that he'll be here any time that you want to visit again.
But you can remember your magical land and come back and visit.
Especially in times when you feel that you want to let some of your worries away.
Or you are tired and you want to rest.
You wave goodbye to your animal friend and you hop back onto your magic carpet.
It gently lifts off into the sky and you become higher and higher until your magical land is beneath you.
And you start to ride back through the sky,
Passing the houses,
The rivers,
The waterfalls,
The flowers and the gardens,
Until you arrive back to the garden that you started,
With the four magical leaves that are red,
Orange,
Golden brown,
With the dark green grass.
You slowly land gently.
You step off your magical carpet,
Feeling the grass under your feet.
And slowly walking back through your garden,
Noticing the trees.
And breathing your soft breaths.
And knowing that now you can drift into a deep and peaceful sleep.
And that you can visit this place,
This time,
Your animal friend,
Anytime you wish.
Or you can return to your day knowing that you can let your worries away through your breathing,
Coming back to your magical place,
Your magical meditation.
You are strong.
You are exactly as you are meant to be.
You are loved.
You are loved.
