You We begin by taking three deep breaths together.

Breathe in through the nose.

Hold.

Breathe out.

Two more.

Inhale.

Exhale.

Last one.

Place your hands on your belly.

Breathe in,

Filling it up.

Exhale,

Let it go.

I know that you've been afraid.

I know that you've been scared.

I know that you've been confused.

And today,

We're going to find your inner courage,

Your inner strength.

Take a few breaths and think about things that have been weighing on you.

You find yourself in a beautiful place surrounded by mountains.

You stand at the base of a great staircase leading up the mountain.

You begin to walk up the stairs,

Gently,

Simply.

You notice the beautiful greenery around you,

The trees,

The sky.

And above you hear an eagle soar.

Without effort,

You continue up the stairs.

And although the steps are long and the hillside is steep,

You are capable,

Able,

Courageous.

As you continue your walk up these stairs,

You realize that you are beginning to get tired.

But you find the strength inside to continue up the staircase.

Taking in all that is beautiful around you,

You are starting to rise above the treetops.

And you continue up the stairs.

Soon you find yourself at the top.

Once again,

The eagle soars,

Greeting your arrival.

You notice that there is a well at the top of this mountain and a pier for you to walk around and a bench for you to rest.

You walk up to the well and you scoop up some of the crystal clear water and you drink it and it quenches your thirst.

You walk over to the bench and you sit.

And as you sit and take in all that is around you,

You begin to feel an incredible sense of strength from deep within.

As the light,

It radiates to your muscles and you realize you are powerful in the most harmonious way.

You take another deep breath and begin to realize how truly courageous you are,

That all of the strength you need is within you.

That all of the positive thoughts that can propel you forward in life are right there waiting for you to listen to them.

And sitting at the top of this mountain,

You feel protected,

Safe.

You begin to understand the transformative power of your thoughts.

And as you reflect on things that made you afraid in the past,

You realize that you will be okay.

The eagle continues to soar and you are as high up as the clouds.

You stand and notice the beauty around you from this great height.

The trees below,

A river running through a canyon,

Everything is lush and green.

You wave goodbye to the eagle as you begin your journey down the steps.

It is as if you are floating down them.

You are able to continue to take in all the glorious nature that surrounds you.

And as you arrive at the place you began,

You realize the wisdom you received remains.

You are strong.

You are courageous.

And it all lives within you.

Thank you for watching!
