Snow meeting sunlight.
Welcome to this guided journey.
You can sit or lie down for this process.
You may prefer to lie down.
Somewhere you can truly let go and relax.
Taking a few moments to make yourself as comfortable as you can possibly be right now.
Allowing yourself this time,
This gift of nourishment.
Allow your breath to be natural.
Going in and out of your nose.
Inviting in a softness with your breath.
And feel that softness begin to echo throughout your whole body.
And feel that softness begin to settle through your thinking.
Allowing each exhale to extend slightly.
Welcoming in a sense of subtlety.
Where you cease the efforting and trying,
You do less.
Until you just allow this loving soft quality to move itself through you.
Until you realize you don't have to do anything.
Feeling now as though you could feel that there is a sense of an energy surrounding your body.
An energy body beyond this body.
And you begin to feel that body soften.
You begin to feel that body relax.
Like a warm breeze sweeping through with your soft exhale.
Feeling the outer layers of you softening.
Melting effortlessly into the surface beneath you.
Like snow melting.
With the first true sunlight of spring.
Nothing you have to do.
In a sense,
You are letting nature take its course.
Gradually returning to your natural state of peace.
Let this peace become you as it will.
And now we will gently sweep this essence of softness throughout our bodies with our awareness.
You feel everything in your body settling down now.
As though your body is a woodland.
All of the nature has stilled for a time.
There may be some flickers and gentle movements.
And that's okay.
Notice where your attention immediately wants to go.
Within yourself or even around yourself.
And just allow an abundance of tenderness to arrive wherever that place may be.
Continue with a soft breath in and out of your nose.
As we move,
Sweeping your awareness over the crown of your head.
Snow melting.
Gentle sunlight warming your entire scalp.
And the area around your head.
Sunlight shining down upon your forehead.
Your eyebrows.
Your eyelids.
Your eyes.
Your cheeks.
Each ear.
Jaw.
Softening.
Nose.
Softening.
Relaxing.
Feeling the back of your head melting.
Expanding.
Like snow in the sunlight.
Melting into a puddle here.
Your neck muscles softening.
Snow melting.
As sunlight shines upon your neck.
And your throat.
Illuminating your sacred self.
Enlivening your communication.
Collarbone melting.
Shoulders gently dropping.
Like liquid.
Your entire ribcage receiving this warmth.
Centre of your chest.
Holding its own golden sun.
Shining gently for soft sunlight.
Reaching the elbows.
Softness in the wrists.
Soft sunlight singing through your hands.
And from each fingertip.
Echo of these rays of light.
Sunlight melting the snow and ice of your entire spine.
Dripping down.
Flowing down to bottom.
Melting down your entire back.
Thawing out all of your muscles.
Inviting healing of any emotional tension.
Winter slowly leaving your spine.
Stomach melting.
Expanding with gentle breath.
Sunlight cascading.
Snow melting down to your hips.
Your lower back warming in these golden rays.
Pelvis melting and warming as sunlight pours.
Increasing this liquid sensation of light now.
Eyes relax.
All of your muscles here receiving a tender effortless warmth.
It is safe for you to sink.
It is safe for you to soften.
You are held here.
Let yourself be held here.
Feeling your knees melting warmed by this sun.
As old stories soften.
As ancient fears melt.
And the sunlight flows down to your ankles.
Warming.
Softening.
Expanding.
Sending signals of safety and surrender throughout the entire landscape of your body.
Like sunlight rising over the mountains.
This warm light now reaches your feet.
Feel your feet warmed by this friendly light.
And you feel this sunlight at the soles of your feet.
Beating this warmth down into the earth.
Down into the blankets of energy beneath you.
Let yourself be carried here for a few moments.
Feeling this sunlight melting more and more within you.
Softening and clearing the edges of your field of self.
Allowing an opening for more freedom.
More truth.
More peace.
To arise through you.
To shine through you.
Very gently now.
You feel all of the snow finally melting.
Allow a fresh breath to move through you lovingly.
And take a moment to experience some love.
Feeling grateful for this ability you have within yourself to warm and soften.
Peacefully and gradually bringing your awareness back into the physical present moment.
Allowing flickers of awareness to move through your fingers and toes.
And you can move and stretch your body if you'd like to.
When you feel ready,
You can open your eyes or drift off into a nourishing sleep.
