Connecting with loved ones who have passed away.
Welcome to this meditation.
Please make yourself comfortable.
Close your eyes,
Relax your body,
And come into the present moment.
Easily breathe in,
Breathe out.
Breathe in peace.
Breathe out calm.
Gently focus on your breathing.
Each breath brings your attention to presence in the here and now.
Relax.
Breathe in.
Let go.
Breathe.
Now imagine that you are in front of a portal.
This portal is made of light.
A beautiful white light.
The light of the portal beckons to you.
You come closer.
You enter the portal and step into the light.
Now you feel it merging with you.
The light shines through you.
The light is above,
Below,
And all around you.
You start to see yourself as light.
You are the light.
You slowly realize you have always been this light,
But sometimes forget when swept away by the dream of physical life.
Now that you have passed the portal,
Take a deep breath.
Acknowledge and remember that this beautiful place is your true home.
As you surrender to this moment,
Slowly walk on a path that is in front of you.
The path leads you to a beautiful garden with flowers and trees,
Birds and lush green grass under your bare feet.
You feel the morning dew.
There is a brook singing nearby.
You feel at home here surrounded by beauty.
It is so peaceful,
So calm and serene.
Take your time to breathe in the breeze,
In the sunlight,
The wonder of being here.
You look to the horizon and from a distance,
Another brilliant light appears.
An image starts to emerge.
It is your loved one approaching you.
Your loved one,
Whom you thought was lost,
Is found coming towards you with a smile and open arms.
As you come nearer and nearer,
Your heart expands full of joy and gratitude that you meet again.
You embrace your loved one with all your heart and feel the eternal love you have for each other.
You are surrounded and immersed in the warmth of divine love and light.
You gaze into each other's eyes and your heart speaks what you wish.
All your feelings overflow with the amazing joy of being together once again.
You listen carefully to what your loved one has to say.
The message your loved one brings is a balm for your spirit,
Music to your soul.
You are comforted,
Happy,
At peace.
You are both aware that everything that was unresolved between the two of you is now dissolving in the divine light of love.
Everything and anything is forgiven and all is well.
Only acceptance and loving surrender remains.
Love between you intensifies and you see a ray of light connecting your heart to the heart of your loved one.
This cord is unbreakable and exists eternally to remind you we are all one.
You look at one another,
Aware that this luminous cord connects you forever.
You will never be apart.
Your hearts are the permanent portals that join the physical body to the spiritual realm.
Your physical place to your spiritual home.
Your hearts will always meet whenever they wish in this special garden and you will always be together.
Now you walk slowly towards the portal of light and come back to your body.
Very gently you reconnect with your body and your emotions,
Bringing your being to the present moment.
Ready to live your day with peace and joy,
Aware that the connection to your loved one is with you always.
With our hand on our heart we say,
Thank you.
