Hello and welcome.

Welcome to this audio healing journey.

Finding peace in the struggle.

One unfortunate part of life is the struggle.

I'm very sorry to tell you but the truth is the struggle will never go away.

It will always come and go like the tides of the sea because struggle is part of life.

We get tested so that we may learn and grow.

The struggle is important to our evolution.

It is painful.

It does hurt.

But it's part of being human.

You are the universe that has come into the specific body you're in to learn and experience the whole of life.

And the struggle is part of life.

So instead of trying to avoid,

Run away or heal yourself until you have no struggle,

You can learn to find peace within the difficult times.

Imagine those difficult times are like a cyclone.

A cyclone is a tropical storm with winds that blow powerfully in a large spiral around a calm centre known as the eye.

The spiral of wind causes chaos while all the while in the eye of the storm there is absolute calm and peace.

When you're in the eye of the storm,

You don't even know the storm is there.

So in this audio healing journey,

I'm going to help you find your way to the eye of the storm.

To find peace even with all the struggle swirling around you.

If your eyes aren't closed,

Then I invite you to close them now.

And just follow your breath.

Blow it in and follow it out.

Inhale through the nose.

Exhale through the nose.

Inhale through the nose.

Exhale out your mouth.

Inhale through your nose.

Exhale through your nose.

Inhale through your nose.

And exhale out your mouth.

And let everything go.

Let the day disappear.

Let life around you fade away.

So there's just you here with me.

I'd like you to imagine yourself sitting at the top of a mountain.

You are alone.

Sitting on a patch of grass at the very top of a mountain.

The sky is an ominous grey.

Everything is quiet.

But you can feel a breeze on your skin that tells you something is coming.

That a storm is on its way.

I don't want you to get up and seek refuge.

I'd like you to stay where you are.

I'd like you to stay seated there at the top of the mountain.

Please trust me.

I'm not going to let any harm come to you.

Watch as the storm approaches.

Feel as the wind gets stronger and stronger.

It begins to rain.

You hear thunder and it makes your body shudder.

You see lightning.

The chaos begins.

You sit there at the top of the mountain feeling like you're in the worst place in the world.

But now I'd like you to breathe with me.

A very powerful and life-changing breath.

As you're sitting there at the top of the mountain,

I'd like you to breathe in and imagine roots coming out of the base of your spine,

Sinking into the mountain where you're sitting and just exhale through those roots into the earth below you.

There's no wrong or right way of doing this.

If you're not great at visualizing,

Just listen to the sound of my voice and trust that what needs to happen will happen.

Just open your mind and imagine roots at the base of your spine,

Sinking deep into the earth below you,

Rooting you,

Grounding you.

Feel those roots start to entwine with the roots of Mother Earth that lives within that mountain.

And now I'd like you to take a deep breath from here,

Pulling up all the strength and power of Mother Earth through your roots,

Up your spine,

All the way to the top of your head and exhale out the top of your head into the universe.

And now breathe deeply in the protection and power of the universe into the top of your head,

Down your spine and exhale into the earth.

And again,

Inhale the power of Mother Earth up through your spine to the top of your head and exhale into the universe.

And one more time,

Inhale deeply,

Gathering up all the power and strength of the universe through the top of your head,

Down your spine,

Into the roots,

Exhale back into Mother Earth.

And just return to your normal breath,

Feeling the power of Mother Earth and the power of the universe surrounding you,

Enveloping you,

Holding you.

You are protected by the energy force of the universe.

You are grounded and safe with the power of Mother Earth.

You are safe.

You are grounded.

You are protected.

It feels like you're sitting in a bubble that nothing can penetrate,

A bubble of powerful and invincible light.

You can see the storm raging around you,

But you can't feel the gale force wind.

You can't feel the wetness of the torrential rain.

You can't hear the thunder.

No part of the storm can reach you.

The sound of the storm has completely disappeared.

All you can hear is the music and the sound of my voice.

You are dry,

Warm and safe,

Watching the storm whilst peacefully sitting in the heart of it.

Allow the storm to be there,

Because the storm will always come.

The struggle will always come,

But you don't have to get sucked up by it.

You can find stillness,

Safety and peace no matter what,

Simply by connecting to Mother Earth and to the universe,

Because there is nothing more powerful than the universe and Mother Earth.

They are the infinite,

Ultimate and most powerful.

And no struggle can beat you when you remember to connect to those two things,

Because you create a force field that can bring you peace no matter the struggle.

And remember,

The storm always passes.

It can take time.

Cyclones can rage in the open seas for over two weeks,

But a cyclone never stays spinning forever.

And the struggle you experience will not keep spinning forever.

The storm will pass eventually.

Remember the magic way to breathe.

Remember to find the stillness in the eye of the storm whenever the struggle gets too much.

You have the power to find peace whenever you need it.

Just connect to Mother Earth and to the universe.

To end this audio healing journey,

I'm going to give you a little space and time to bathe in the peace,

Even surrounded by the storm and the struggle.

Thank you for taking this journey into the eye of the storm with me.

Remember you can always find peace within the struggle.

And now,

Return to your day,

Return to this present moment,

And keep the peace with you.

I did not know. I did not know that I could find peace and calm in the eye of the storm. Your meditation opened my eyes that I do not need to live in the chaos. I know there is peace in the quiet while the storm/craziness rages. I am left with the choice of being part of the insanity or choosing the calm. I chose the calm. You have, again, given me much to consider. Thank you!
