Hello and welcome.
I'm so glad you choose to spend a few quiet moments here with me.
And tonight I invite you into a peaceful little Halloween escape.
A place where the night is mysterious and the forest is gently haunted.
And you are surrounded by a magical bubble of calm.
Now before we begin.

And now,
Make yourself comfortable as we begin this journey.
You may sit back.
Lie down or settle into whatever position feels better for you.
When you are ready,
Gently close your eyes.
Take a slow deep breath in through your nose.
Hold it softly for a moment.
And breathe out.
Again?
Breathe in.
And slowly let it go.
Allow your shoulders to soften.
Relax your jaw.
Let your hands become heavy.
There is nowhere else you need to be right now.
And for the next few moments,
Simply allow yourself to rest.
Imagine that it is midnight on a cold October evening.
You are standing at the beginning of a quiet woodland path.
And above you,
A beautiful silver moon glows against a deep blue sky.
The trees move gently in the autumn breeze.
The leaves slowly drift towards the ground.
Somewhere far away.
You hear the soft call of an owl.
The air smells of autumn leaves,
Pine,
And distant wood smoke.
You feel calm,
Safe.
Peaceful.
And then you notice something glowing beside you.
A tiny light rises into the air.
Then another appears.
And another.
Soon.
A dozen of little lights begin floating gently around you.
Then slowly join together,
Creating a soft glowing bubble.
This bubble completely surrounds you.
Its surface shimmer with a pale violet and silver light.
Tiny stars move across it.
You immediately understand.
This is your hunted bubble,
But there's nothing frightening about it.
It is warm,
Comfortable,
Protective.
Nothing stressful can enter.
Nothing uncomfortable can reach you.
Inside this bubble,
There's only calm.
Let's take another slow breath.
And as you breathe out,
Feel your entire body relax a little deeper.
Your bubble slowly rises from the ground.
It begins floating peacefully down the woodland path.
You do not need to walk.
You simply rest as the force slowly passes around you.
Tall tree rises on either side.
Small lantern hang from their branches.
Their flames flicker gently in the darkness.
As your bubble passes beneath them,
Each lantern glows slightly brighter,
Almost as though the force is welcoming you.
A little further ahead,
You notice three glowing pumpkins sitting beside the path.
Their faces are friendly and sleepy.
One slowly closed its eyes.
Another gives a little quiet yawn.
You smile.
Even this haunted forest seems ready for bed.
Your bubble continues forward,
Slowly.
Gently,
Effortlessly.
With every breath,
Feel yourself becoming more relaxed.
Your forehead softens.
Your shoulders drop.
Your arms become heavy.
Your legs relax.
Your breathing becomes easy and natural.
Soon,
The trees open into a quiet clearing.
In the center stands an enormous old tree.
Hundreds of tiny lights sparkled between its branches.
Small glowing ghosts float peacefully through the air.
They drift like little lanterns.
Slowly moving up and down and around the tree.
Your bubble gently lowers into the soft grass.
You notice a little wooden sign hanging from a branch.
It reads,
Rest here a while.
And as you do so,
You listen to the soft movement of the leaves.
The gentle wind.
The distant crackle of lanterns.
Take a slow breath in.
And breathe out.
Imagine that anything you have been carrying today can now be released.
A worry.
A task.
A conversation.
Something you need to remind tomorrow.
You do not have to solve it right now.
Simply imagine placing that thought inside your bubble.
It transforms into a small autumn leaf.
The leaf begins floating upward.
Turning slowly in the moonlight.
And then the forest carries it away.
Another thought appears.
Let that one become a leaf too,
And let it drift away.
Breathe in calm.
Breathe out tension.
Breathe in peace.
Breathe out the day.
Your bubble begins glowing a little brighter.
Tiny stars slowly appear inside it.
Each one seems to carry a feeling.
Peace.
Comfort.
Safety.
Rest.
And stillness.
The stars gently settle around you like a warm blanket.
You feel completely supported.
Nothing is expected of you here.
You are allowed to rest.
The old tree releases a few golden leaves into the air.
They slowly drift around your bubble.
The little ghosts move more quietly now.
The pumpkins beside the path have fallen asleep.
The entire forest seems to be settling down for the night.
Your bubble gently rises again.
It begins floating back through the trees.
Past the glowing lanterns.
Past the sleepy pumpkins.
Past the quiet shadows.
And as you travel,
You realize something.
Not everything haunted needs to be frightening.
Some places are haunted by beautiful memories.
By old stories.
By dreams.
By quiet moments under the moon.
Tonight,
This forest is haunted only by peaceful things.
Falling leaves.
Friendly ghosts.
Gentle lanterns.
And sleepy dreams.
Your bubble slowly brings you back toward the edge of the forest.
It gently lowers to the ground.
The violet light surrounding you begins to fade.
But your bubble does not disappear completely.
It's dead.
It becomes visible.
It stays with you.
A peaceful little space you can return to whenever the world feels too busy.
Whenever your thoughts become loud.
Whenever you need a few quiet moments.
All you need to do is close your eyes.
Take a slow breath.
And imagine yourself once again inside your hunted bubble.
For now.
Take one final deep breath in.
And slowly breathe out.
Feel the surface beneath you.
Notice your hands.
Your feet.
You're breathing.
If you are listening before sleep.
You may simply remain here and allow yourself to drift gently into rest.
If you are continuing with your evening.
Slowly begin moving your fingers and toes.
And whenever you feel ready.
Just gently open your eyes.
