Let's unwind in this intentional moment you've chosen to de-stress,

And cultivate some calm in your day.

By settling in to a comfortable position of your choice,

And if you would like to,

Gently closing your eyes or keeping a soft gaze past your nose to begin this meditation.

Feel the supportive energy of the bed,

Couch,

Whatever surface you have landed on to do this meditation.

How it holds and cradles your body.

Give yourself to this energy.

Let it support you to be your strong foundation on which to build this peaceful moment of calm upon.

However you see fit,

Take a few deep breaths,

Slowly and steadily,

As you surrender yourself to this time you have gifted yourself.

Feeling your muscles,

Your body relax with your exhales,

Letting go of the tension in your brow,

Unclenching your jaw,

Allowing your hands and shoulders to relax.

Let this mindful intention of relaxation drift down your body,

Releasing tension wherever you may find it,

Knowing there is nothing else you need to do right now but honour and savour this time for yourself.

Breathing in love with each of your inhales and surrendering deeper into relaxation with your exhales.

Coming to a restful relaxed repose.

Your body,

Your mind,

Your soul in a harmonious alliance of savouring this quiet moment you are creating for yourself.

From your heart,

Imagine or feel the warmth of a beautiful white light slowly and steadily expanding out from it,

Shining out of your body to illuminate the space around you.

Watch and notice how this light grows brighter with each of your inhales and expands further out across and around your body with each of your exhales,

Until it comes to completely envelop you in its warm,

Protective,

Healing light.

Feel this light wrap itself around you like a soft snuggly duvet,

How it lovingly embraces every part of you,

Keeping you safe,

Secure.

This beautiful bubble of pure energy,

A divine light shining through every pore of your skin,

Illuminating every inch of you from the crown of your head to the tips of your toes.

Radiating peace,

Tranquility,

Healing you from the inside out.

Soothing,

Cleansing,

Restoring,

Renewing.

Guide this beautiful white light's epicentre from your heart to any areas you still may feel or hold tension or are simply just asking for a little more of your loving attention.

Watching,

Feeling this light move down or up your body to this place,

Holding it there,

Enhancing its restorative power with every loving life nourishing inhale and allowing this tension to be soothed,

To be led out from your body with the breath of your slow,

Relaxing exhales.

Then,

Moving on,

Guiding this light again to another place you would like to give a little extra attention to.

If any distracting thoughts or external influences try to remove you from this intentional time for yourself.

Simply set them aside for later.

They can wait until you're finished.

This time is for you.

Guiding that light around your body,

Offering it loving attention with every nourishing inhale and the opportunity to relax more deeply with every soothing exhale.

Now,

Gently guide this light back to your heart.

As it comes to rest peacefully there once again,

Stay with it for a moment.

Let its love and calming light with every beat of your heart be carried through your veins,

Carrying peace and tranquility to every inch of your beautiful body.

Relaxation and calm seeping into every cell.

Your body,

Brain and soul basking in its restorative energy.

Grateful to you for gifting them this intentional moment of loving attention.

Now,

Begin to imagine this radiant light that shines out around you.

With each gentle,

Steady,

Life nourishing breath you take,

Being called back inside the epicentre of your heart.

See the light around you retreating into this sacred space,

Returning home.

The sensations of tranquility,

Of inner peace only growing stronger as it nestles back inside of your heart.

Feel this light glow from within,

Like the flames of a gentle fire,

Warming you,

Comforting you,

Reminding you that there is always a light in the darkness and peace to be found when you open your heart.

Take one final,

Gratified deep breath in through your nose and with your exhale let out a contented sigh as you gently open your eyes.

Thank you for joining me in this meditation.

From my heart to yours,

As always,

Namaste.

Sigh. Thank you for offering this calming meditation. I found the teacher’s voice soothing and background music pleasant. I appreciated the suggestion that there can be light if we open our hearts.
