Lie down and relax.
Let your body be still and close your eyes.
Take a deep breath in and a slow breath out.
Take a deep breath in and a slow breath out.
Imagine you are resting in your bed on a rainy spring morning.
You hear the pitter-patter of raindrops against your window and you see rain clouds hanging low in the sky outside.
After a little while,
The raindrops begin to slow down and a beam of sunshine makes its way into your room.
You rise out of bed and step closer to the window to see a beautiful rainbow appearing before you.
Look outside and see the world shining after the rain with little droplets of water resting on the flowers and the blades of grass.
Look up,
Up,
Up and see the rainbow stretching into the clouds.
Look down near the ground where the rainbow begins and notice each sparkling color.
Red,
Orange,
Yellow,
Green,
Blue and purple.
Imagine now that you could walk right through this beautiful rainbow enjoying the colors one by one.
Each color will help you to feel something different and special.
Step first into the bright beam of red.
Feel how strong and steady you are with your feet connected to the ground like a tree connects to the earth with its roots.
You feel balanced and safe as you begin your journey through the rainbow.
Take your next step into the sparkling orange color.
Feel all of the things that you know deep inside,
Not only what you have learned in school,
But also pieces of wisdom that you have just by being you.
Walk a little further now into the bright yellow color in the rainbow.
Just like little droplets of sunshine all around you.
You feel full of joy and excitement here.
It feels wonderful to be living your own special life.
Next,
Step into the color green.
As the green light swirls gently around you,
You get a warm feeling in your heart.
You imagine being with the people you love most in the world and it gives you a comforting peaceful feeling.
You have come now to the blue beam in the rainbow.
It's a light blue,
Like the color of the sky on a sunny day.
Here you get a nice cool feeling in your throat.
You imagine singing your favorite song or even making one up.
You feel thankful for your own special voice.
Take a step now into the last color of the rainbow,
Purple.
As soon as you step into the sparkling purple light,
You feel comfortable and cozy,
As relaxed as can be.
You know that everything you need is right inside of you and always with you.
Step out of the rainbow and feel the sun shining brighter now that the rain has passed.
Here the birds begin to sing and watch the squirrels scurry out from their hiding spots.
A beautiful day has begun.
Take a deep breath in and a slow breath out.
Wiggle your fingers and wiggle your toes.
Gently open your eyes,
Sit back up,
And have a wonderful day.
