This meditation combines the research of the American psychologist Abraham Maslow with the ancient practice of visualizing chakra centers to help manifest your dream career.
Begin in a comfortable seated position in a space that is free from distractions,
Either on a chair or sitting on a meditation pillow with your arms gently resting on your knees,
Palms resting up to feel lifted or palms down to feel grounding.
Softly close your eyes or gaze gently down the tip of your nose to focus on a pebble or a spot on the floor or the wall that will not move.
We'll begin by slowing down the breath to a smooth four count counting on an inhale up to four then exhaling back down to one.
Let's begin.
Inhale one,
Two,
Three,
Four.
Exhale four,
Three,
Two,
One.
One more time.
Inhale one,
Two,
Three,
Four.
Exhale four,
Three,
Two,
One.

Imagine a bright violet light above the crown of the head glowing brighter with each breath.

Continue to breathe steady with a smooth four count inhale and four count exhale and imagine experiencing the following thoughts,
Feelings,
And emotions.
Allow whatever comes to your attention and embrace these visualizations with the playfulness of a dream.
Imagine sitting down at a table with a cup of coffee or tea and across from you sits someone whom you deeply admire for their work.
What would you ask them?
What do you think they would say?
Experience this conversation for a few breaths on your own asking whatever questions come to your mind.
Imagine sitting in a room with a large open box in the middle.
You have the ability to place in this box all that you need to create the legacy and impact you wish to have in your career.
What would you place in this box?
These could be real items as well as symbols or metaphors such as an ocean or a bird.
Experience this for a few breaths on your own placing as little or as much as you wish in the box.
Imagine walking up a magnificent stage with the roar of the audience's applause.
In your hand you hold an award for your work.
Experience this moment.
Perhaps you may think who is in the audience,
What you would say,
Or what your award may be for.
Experience this moment for a few breaths on your own.
Continue to breathe steady throughout the next several minutes as we shift to find grounding and focus in the present.
You may consider opening your eyes to softly gaze on the spot in front of you that will not move.
Count each breath while maintaining a steady inhale and exhale.
And when you make it up to 10,
Simply begin again with the number 1.
I will be silent for a few minutes while you count your breath on your own.
Whenever a thought distracts your counting,
Simply come back to counting your breath.
Much variants of other sensations are contained in our body and mind.
The brain is able to animate intensive learning in our bodies.
