Gently bring your hands to your heart and close your eyes.
Take a deep breath in,
Hold it for just a few moments and slowly let it out.
Allow yourself to relax,
Letting go,
Slowing down,
Releasing any tension or anxiety with each exhale.
Allow your body to soften and relax,
Letting go,
Becoming heavier,
Sinking deeper and deeper into relaxation.
Loosen your grip on any thoughts or feelings,
Letting go.
As you begin to drift now,
Relaxing more and more,
Any stressors melting away,
As you are filled with peace,
Calm,
And tranquility,
Resting in this space,
This envelope that surrounds you,
Imbuing you with calm,
With safety.
As you listen to the sound of my voice,
As you let go,
Deeper and deeper,
More and more,
As you enter a realm of stillness,
Stillness within,
Going deeper than before,
And as you drift,
You completely let go,
You are completely relaxed and at ease.
Imagine yourself on a hillside,
Whatever feels most peaceful to you,
A beautiful place in nature,
A safe place where you can just be,
A beautiful place that feels dear to you and close to your heart.
Allow this place to unfold before you.
Become aware of all that you see,
All that you hear,
All that you smell.
Engage all of your senses and allow them to come alive.
Feel the air about you and the ground beneath your feet.
Really be here now.
Allow yourself to fully experience this place,
This beautiful place where you can just be.
As you breathe in the fresh air of this place,
You feel it clearing and invigorating you,
Energizing and giving life to your system.
As you absorb the beauty of this place,
You see your higher power,
Your inner wisdom,
Walking towards you in a personified form.
This vast and transcendent being who lives in you is coming to meet you now.
Walking towards you,
They appear as if from nowhere,
Coming to meet you to share their love and insight.
However vividly or not you see them,
Know that they come to be with you.
As they approach,
You see that they hold a box.
It is a box of release.
Releasing that which is most appropriate for you to let go of at this time.
To be free from.
And they hand you this box of release and you do not know what is inside.
And you receive it gratefully,
Curious.
Perhaps sitting down on the earth,
You place it before you and you look at this box,
This box of release,
Knowing that you will experience more freedom when you open this box and let go.
Notice the detail of the box,
The shape,
The size,
The color,
The texture.
Whatever is in your box,
It is now time to lift the lid and look inside.
What is inside?
What is inside your box of release?
Perhaps you see an object,
Several things,
Many things,
Different things.
Perhaps what you see does not feel discernible in any clear way.
Perhaps it is more like a substance or a smell,
A feeling,
A thought,
An awareness.
A flash of insight or a memory is seen from the past.
Perhaps you hear words.
Allow whatever is in your box of release to be made apparent to you now.
To give you insight,
A message,
A clue,
A whisper.
That is released from the box when you open it.
Experience whatever happens.
Whatever is there when you open the box and you know that a process is occurring,
Whether or not you are fully aware of it at this time.
Now allow whatever is inside of your box to rise up out of your box or take it out with your very hands and lift it into the air.
And as it rises or as you allow it to float up into the air or as you hold it in your hand,
Whatever it is,
Thought,
Feeling,
Picture,
Object,
A gust of wind comes and blows it away out of your hands,
Out of the box,
Into the air,
Into the breeze to be gone.
Allow that which you are releasing to be blown away.
A strong gust of wind clearing away whatever was in your box until nothing remains.
Your box of release now empty and you feel lighter,
Freer,
Clearer,
And refreshed.
Allow yourself to take a deep breath,
Hold it for just a moment and exhale,
Releasing more and more.
And you turn again now to your higher power,
Your inner wisdom,
And you see that they hold a different box,
A new box,
A sparkling box,
A box that glows.
This is your box of integration,
That which is most serving for you to bring into your life at this time,
To receive,
To invite in.
Having relinquished that which encumbers you,
You are now open and ready to receive,
Excited and curious.
You receive this box from your higher power gratefully as they hand you this box with a look of joy and delight on their face.
And as you take this box,
You feel its energy.
You place this box before you on the ground,
Perhaps sitting next to it.
Curious,
You lift the lid of your box of integration.
You open the box to look inside.
What do you see?
What's inside your box of integration?
What comes to mind?
What thoughts or feelings,
Visions or images?
As you lift the lid,
As you look inside,
Just allow any thoughts or feelings or insights to come.
Just be open to any message that which is serving for you to integrate into your life at this time.
Perhaps it is a quality,
An attitude,
Perhaps a physical resource,
A symbol,
A number,
A light or an energy that rises from the box,
A project,
An action,
An activity,
Communication.
Perhaps it is love,
Trust,
Openness,
Giving,
Receiving,
Compassion,
Joy.
See if you can get a sense of what is being suggested at this time,
What is being offered to you,
The hints,
The clues,
The whisper,
The message for you at this time.
You can also ask your higher power what anything you have experienced means.
You can ask them directly what your box of integration holds for you.
Do this now if you wish.
And know that whether you experience anything vividly or not,
By opening this box of integration in and of itself,
By your participation and your willingness,
You are inviting in the essence of that which is most serving of you to receive at this time,
To allow into your life,
Brought to your awareness by your higher power.
You thank your higher power one last time.
And as you do so,
You experience their love and a warm glow in your heart.
This is the greatest gift of all.
You feel their love and their light surround and envelop you,
Unconditional and pure love,
The love they hold for you.
And it is now time for you to return to reality.
With deep gratitude in your heart,
Savoring this embrace.
You breathe in their light and love.
And I'll now count from one to five,
And at the count of five,
You will find yourself back in this room,
Returning to everyday waking consciousness,
Having released that which is encumbering you,
That which is unserving,
And having opened to receive and integrate that which is most beneficial for you at this time.
One,
Returning.
Two,
Becoming more and more aware.
Three,
Back in this room,
Feeling refreshed.
Four,
Coming back now.
And five,
Open your eyes,
Wide awake,
Wide awake.
