Imagine yourself standing at the top of a waterfall.
The sound of rushing water surrounds you.
Mist rises into the air,
Cooling your skin,
Catching the light.
Take a slow breath in,
And let it out.
You're here now,
At the edge.
Steady,
Present,
Ready to see what the water has to show you.
The stone beneath your feet is firm and grounding.
Beside you,
The river gathers speed,
Full of movement,
Full of life.
You feel its energy in your body,
As if the water's rhythm is moving inside of you too.
Place your hand on your chest.
Feel your own river,
Your heartbeat,
Your breath,
The current of life flowing through you.
Notice what's here right now.
The sensations in your body,
The emotions just beneath the surface.
Let them be.
Now lift your gaze to the horizon.
The forest stretches wide,
The river winds below,
The sky opens endlessly above you.
Standing here,
You can sense something calling you forward.
A longing,
A possibility,
A dream.
It might be a vision,
Or simply a feeling in your body.
Allow yourself to wander into it,
To see it,
To let yourself imagine.
Here,
I'll leave you for a while.
This is your time to explore your vision.
Notice what arises,
Notice how it feels in your body.
Stay with it,
Breathe with it,
Let the water carry you deeper.
When you're ready,
I'll guide you back.
Feel your feet pressing into the stone again.
Feel your breath,
Steady,
Flowing in and out like the river itself.
And now,
When the moment feels right,
Step forward.
You leap with the water.
The rush of air,
The cool silk of the falls wrapping you in their embrace.
Time stretches.
There's nothing to do but surrender here.
You are carried,
Held,
Free.
The river catches you below.
Wide,
Open,
Embracing.
You float,
Safe,
Supported,
Rock gently forward.
Here you are,
Both exactly as you are in this moment,
And everything that you are becoming.
