Thank you,

Thank you,

Thank you.

I am grateful and deeply honored that you have chosen to do this journey with me.

I am Maria and from my heart I thank you for trusting me.

Now I recommend that you find a comfortable position.

You can do this practice lying down or sitting up.

Relax every muscle in your body and let all tension just melt away.

Breathe in and breathe out.

Listen to my words as they were your own.

Let them flow through you like a forest river gently caressing the rocks on the bottom of the stream.

Now imagine a familiar lake or a waterfront that you love.

In your mind you can include details from your own life to this practice.

Breathe in and out.

Now feel the full essence and energy of your body.

Thank you,

Thank you,

Thank you.

Thank you for this opportunity to always see the bigger picture.

I can now choose to see myself as an essential part of the whole universe.

I was born here to experience the richness of life and to feel all emotions.

I was born to learn and to develop.

I was born from love and as a fruit of a great creation.

I existed here long before I was born as a thought and energy.

I have been given a great gift.

The ability to see,

Imagine and create my own reality.

I will now go to the future 500 years from this moment ahead.

I am the lake I once loved.

I am the lake's water,

Depth and its waves.

It is summer and I can feel the warmth of my surface.

It is calm,

The day is beautiful.

The air is standing still.

My water is completely black.

But my surface is reflecting the blue of the sky.

I am calm.

I can feel the depth of my water.

I can feel the soil.

I can feel the soil under my back.

I can feel the beautiful mother earth that is carrying me and holding me in her arms.

I hold life and life holds me.

I am full of trust resting on this lap that the shore rocks and the muddy dark bottom have created.

I can feel the earth.

It is love and warmth that is beating underneath.

I can feel the sun warming me so bright.

The sun's rays go through my surface pointing copper colored sparkles towards the depths of me.

It feels like the sun is painting magical northern lights in me.

My water's surface is rising and falling easily and effortlessly.

I am full of life,

Fish and plants,

All kinds of small creatures.

Every drop of my water is full of life.

My molecules can remember everything since the beginning of time.

Now on my shore I can feel a yellow white water lily that is just opening its petals.

I am full of love towards that little flower,

That delicate shining yellow and white water lily.

I am overwhelmed from its beauty.

Every water drop in me feels joy of this moment and is going higher and higher in love.

A turquoise metallic shining dragonfly is now joining me and sitting on the water lily.

I can feel and hear its wings buzzing.

This is the joy of creation.

Now a gentle breeze is creating waves on my surface.

I enjoy the movement,

All the sensations and the vibration.

I observe with love all those little dancing joyous waves on my surface.

I see my surface rising and falling like the breath of life.

But underneath I am completely calm and in silence.

The darkness of the depths calms me and reminds me of my connection to the earth.

I can hear the soft sound of the wind in all trees and bushes around me.

I am deeply grateful to experience these sensations in me and all around me.

Thank you,

Thank you,

Thank you.

Autumn has arrived.

The trees on my shores are shining in bright colors and they are all reflecting from me.

I am those colors.

The surface of my water and the air above me are vibrating yellow,

Orange,

Red,

Green.

I sense the fire-burning orange of the maple leaves in my toes and fingertips.

And I feel the birches yellow in my arms and legs and spruces green inside my chest.

With deep gratitude I join the dance of the autumn colors and let them paint my whole body.

Now I can see two kids riding their bikes arriving to the beach.

The kids are thrilled.

The kids are picking up small stones from my shore and throwing them into my water.

Oh,

The excitement in their eyes and hearts.

I am focusing all my willpower so that the sparkling sprouts that the stones lift above my surface could transmit them the secret of life in all its beauty.

The sunlight is shining through my drops,

Creating small,

Beautiful rainbows.

Every single drop of me is so grateful.

Now I am saying goodbye to the last leaves and colors of autumn.

I can feel the trees letting go of all that doesn't serve them anymore.

I can feel some of the fallen leaves sinking down to the dark bottom slowly and in silence.

The air is getting colder.

I can feel my surface lifting up and down and cooling.

A storm is rising.

My surface is connected to the depths in me.

Even though my surface is rising and falling,

The biggest part of me is in complete serenity and silence.

The night is getting dark.

My surface is calming and cooling.

Thousands of stars are sparkling on the night sky.

I am reflecting them.

I can sense and feel every star.

They are my friends.

They have been shining on me for thousands of years.

I know their roots.

But every night I can see a new show on the sky.

I can also feel the moon's essence.

It makes my water move again every month.

Every month in a new way.

I am following the moon's power,

Its beauty.

It is also my own power.

The moon is making my waters move like a calm breath that easily makes the chest rise and fall.

First snow is falling.

I welcome every single snowflake with devotion.

Like a holy blessing given to me from heaven.

Snowflakes are landing on me and slowly melting into my dark water.

My surface is absorbing all the snowflakes.

Every snowflake is bringing me information from distant lands and forests.

A white coat is already covering some of the trees on my shores.

I feel the silence in my every cell.

Now my surface is starting to freeze.

A thin layer of ice is growing.

The whole forest is quieting down to respect this delicate white snow.

I feel calm and safe under the strong ice.

I am completely safe.

Even though it looks like I am resting,

Underneath I am full of life.

I am cleansing,

Renewing and growing.

Underneath the ice,

Thousands of fishes,

Perches,

Pikes and roaches are living their lives in harmony.

They trust that the spring is coming.

The surface is frozen but deep down I can feel the warm heartbeat of Mother Earth.

I can feel the sun's energy that is restored in the flora and fauna,

The plankton in me that is full of life.

It is spring.

I happily invite this increasing light and warmth.

I feel the ice melting.

I can sense the burden falling from my arms and shoulders.

I am free to move.

The birds sing a song of freedom and happiness with me.

I feel like I am born again.

A gentle spring breeze is caressing me all over.

I love and enjoy the soft movement that it creates.

Now I can see a wild duck couple that is nesting and hatching their eggs in the safety of the shore's plants and grasses.

I can sense crystal clear streams filling me up with their life force.

A family that reminds me of my own family from a long time ago is coming to my shore.

They are holding picnic baskets and towels.

I can see the love in their eyes.

They are sitting down now.

The children are happy.

The parents are looking at me and each other.

The power of life is beating in their every cell.

I am sending them all the love that I have ever experienced.

I am reflecting them the blue skies and the sun's rays.

I can see sparkles of the sun shining on their faces.

I can see the family smiling and laughing.

They are feeling the connection and love.

They can feel that it's me,

Their ancestors,

That is protecting them now and always.

The children are laughing and rolling their pants up.

They are running and splashing on my shore.

They are having so much fun.

I am this lake.

I am that family.

I am the trees.

Thank you,

Life.

Thank you for practicing with me.

I did this exercise for myself and for the whole world.

Thank you,

Thank you,

Thank you.

Thank you.
