Transcript

So ensure you're not going to be disturbed for about 20 minutes,

Get yourself nice and comfortable and start taking some big,

Deep belly breaths.

As you deeply exhale,

Imagine that everything you've been up to today,

Thinking about,

Worrying about,

Working on and planning,

Is falling away from your shoulders and you're breathing in deeply of this present moment,

Letting go of anything you've got planned for later,

Releasing all plans,

Returning to this moment right now with your breath.

Big,

Deep breaths into your belly,

Big,

Deep exhales that let go of tension from your mind,

From your muscles,

Falling effortlessly away,

Two more big,

Deep belly breaths and now in your imagination picture yourself taking a walk somewhere exquisitely beautiful in nature,

A gorgeous beach at sunrise,

A tranquil lake,

A mountaintop with an amazing view,

A beautiful lush garden or forest,

Wherever you want to be,

Imagine yourself walking there now and you're breathing in the fresh air,

Feeling the earth under your feet and allowing yourself a sense of relaxation,

Feeling that there's nobody waiting for you,

There's no appointments in your diary right now,

Nothing you need to be doing and no rushing necessary,

You can totally relax as though you were on holiday and just enjoy this beautiful scenery in your imagination.

As you picture yourself walking here in this beautiful environment,

Start breathing into your heart center,

At the center of your chest and imagine there is a big,

Beautiful,

Empty bowl at your heart center.

Look around you in your imagination and appreciate the beauty of the surroundings you're visualizing.

Appreciate our beautiful earth for a moment and as you do so,

The bowl at the center of your chest starts to gently fill with golden light.

Keep walking here and as you're walking,

Start to recall some times in your life when you felt a lot of love,

Joy,

Connection,

Fun or fulfillment,

Even if it was just for a few minutes.

Let the mind wander through beautiful memory after beautiful memory where you felt love,

Joy,

Connection,

Fun or fulfillment.

Breathe into your heart and notice that each wonderful memory fills the bowl at your heart center a little bit more and a little bit more with golden light.

And thinking about your life right now and having gratitude for all of the little everyday miracles and blessings in your life that you often overlook.

Your warm bed,

A good friend,

An animal in your life,

The little things that are going well for you,

The little everyday blessings.

Count them now.

Breathe into your heart and feel how this gratitude is filling that bowl more and more and more with golden beautiful light.

You truly are blessed.

And now thinking about who and what you have deep compassion for in this world.

Breathe into this compassion in your heart and fill that bowl now all the way to the top.

It is now so full of this golden light that it is starting to overflow and it's overflowing from your heart to fill your entire body.

Imagine this golden light flowing down through your whole body all the way down to your toes and your fingertips.

Imagine it flowing up to the top of your head,

Golden light circulating through all of your veins,

Through all of your organs and cells,

Fortifying,

Healing and nourishing every part of your physical body.

Feel this beautiful fullness of love animating your whole being and contemplate that when you feel this full,

This happy,

This loving on the inside,

How does that love want to overflow through you into your life?

What would it want to give or share or create with you?

If you were totally filled with love,

Overflowing with love,

What would be the most fun,

Most expensive,

Most inspiring thing that you would do right now?

Where is love leading you?

And now,

In your imagination,

Visualize that two pathways are opening up in front of you.

One pathway follows the inspiration pouring from your overflowing heart.

The other pathway doesn't.

It stays safe.

It stays fearful.

It stays in the familiar.

As you look at the two pathways ahead of you,

Which one feels better for you?

And what could be a long-term outcome of following that loving pathway versus following the pathway of the familiar?

Imagine now that you're making the 100% decision to follow that pathway of overflowing higher love and purpose in the world.

You're saying yes to this love that wants to move into your life and guide and direct you.

You are 100% choosing that pathway.

100%.

And as you make that choice,

The other pathway falls away and you start to walk down this loving powerful and purposeful pathway.

All of the opportunities,

Resources,

Synchronicities start to flow in as you walk.

You feel guided.

You feel that you're partnering with a higher energy in your life and it feels really good.

Imagine now the outcomes and the lifestyle that love is leading you to live.

Okay,

Well done.

You're doing really well.

It's time to come back.

Take a couple of big deep breaths and just remember where you are,

What day it is today.

Wiggle your toes and your fingers,

Feeling your physical form and slowly coming right back and opening your eyes.

If it's helpful,

You might want to grab a pen and paper and write down any visions,

Ideas or inspirations that you received in that process.

Sometimes more clarity and details can come as you flow your ideas onto paper.

If you have any questions or would like to share your experience,

Please feel free to write a comment.

I'd love to hear from you.
