Transcript

For our meditation today,

We are going to explore the wilderness within.

So often we look outside ourselves for conditions to change.

Today we are going to explore the idea that the love and peace you are seeking is within you right now.

Begin by finding a comfortable way to be.

You can be sitting or lying down.

When and if it feels good to you,

Gently close your eyes.

Be heavy.

See if you can feel your body become a part of the surface that is holding you.

You are standing at the start of a trail,

Early in the morning.

It is dark outside and the only light is from the moon and your headlamp.

The air is cool and crisp.

See yourself here now.

Begin the air and notice how it feels.

You slow down to watch a creek flow by.

Notice everything you can about this creek.

Begin to sense the flowing current of this water and the current of your life.

You begin to walk again and can feel the ground under your feet.

Your heart beats more quickly.

You are surrounded by trees,

Too many to count.

How many leaves can you see?

Can you imagine first rays of dawn gently shining through the forest?

What does it feel like as you begin moving your body outside in this way?

Feel the air flow in and out of your lungs as you climb higher above the trees.

The light in the sky is turning pink and orange.

You arrive on a high ridge just before sunrise.

A gust of wind bursts over the ridge.

See yourself here.

What do you see?

How do you feel?

Can you sense the energy of this place in every one of your cells?

Just as the sun begins to rise,

You hear music.

The energy of the music combined with the wilderness around you seem to whisper a song in your heart that says,

You belong.

Can you sense the energy of this place in every one of your cells?

Feel this moment in every cell of your body.

Feel the sun on your face and the ground beneath you.

Sense the air in the wind.

See the view that is here for you,

A reflection of the infinite in your heart.

As the sun begins to rise,

So too must you come back into the room.

May you move through each moment of this day,

Knowing that the feeling of the wilderness is always within you.

As you are ready,

Gently open your eyes and be here now.
