Breath in and out breath in and out always begin and end with our breathing and our breath just breath in to any part of your body that might be holding any tension right now allowing any place to just soften just moving into this rhythm of inhaling and exhaling,
Filling and emptying really feeling the floor and the earth below you,
Sensing how the earth supports you and that you are safe here in this time and this place,
You are protected and rooted let your mind's eye open you will see yourself in the clearing there is no moon this is the liminal space between it is dark,
Inky dark it's so dark you don't see farther than a few feet in front of you your eyes are adjusting,
Or trying to you can hear the breeze,
But slight,
Just a little cold you can feel and hear the crunch of the snow under your feet it seems like there's only you and the stars it is vast,
So vast opening up the heavens above you with no moon,
All you see is starlight it catches your breath,
It's so beautiful your eyes are starting to pierce this darkness you start to see that there is tree line against the sky huge trees they've been here forever,
Before forever ancient ancestors these trees know all things you walk forward toward them carefully in the crunching of the snow as you are still trying to see eventually you realize you're on a path in the snow one that's been walked before you get to the tree line and you see the path leading into the forest you see these massive trees,
Evergreen,
Old still showing their life you smell the pine,
The spruce smell of their beautiful oils you go in,
You greet these trees with reverence and humble love for they know so much,
They have been standing so long you feel so welcome amidst their roots and branches it's warmer here even though there's no light you start to sense all the different life forms that live here in the forest all these families of spirit that coexist and that are welcoming you you find yourself a hollow amongst the big,
Gorgeous root systems you wrap your cloak around you and you huddle down and you just sit feeling safe and welcome spend time here amongst the trees,
Amongst the forest in the darkness in the liminal space between find your connection,
Feel into how you are a part of this space and not separate from it you feel the warmth of the forest in the light of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun you feel the warmth of the sun start slow,
Wiggling your toes,
Wiggling your fingers slowly waking up the body when you're ready,
Open your eyes slowly and as you sit up,
Be gentle with yourself move into writing,
Capturing what you remember capturing the essence,
The feelings,
The imagery and perhaps even moving into art to express this space,
To respond to this experience blessings to you
