Welcome.

Today we will journey into an ancient forest.

A place of deep grounding,

Healing,

And energetic support.

Find a comfortable position.

Then close your eyes and take a deep breath in and exhale fully.

Allow your body to soften,

Your mind to settle,

And your heart to open.

This meditation is about walking into the forest,

Connecting with the tree's energy,

And allowing their wisdom to cleanse,

Support,

And energize your entire being.

Take a moment to set an intention.

Perhaps for calm,

Clarity,

Healing,

Or simply for connection.

Imagine standing at the edge of an ancient forest.

The path beneath your feet is soft,

Lined with moss and leaves.

Sunlight filters through the high canopy,

Casting gentle,

Shifting patterns on the ground.

Begin walking slowly.

Feel the earth beneath you,

Solid,

Nourishing,

And supportive.

With each step,

Sense the forest becoming aware of you.

The trees acknowledge your presence.

You are safe.

You are welcomed.

As you walk,

Notice subtle energies moving through the forest.

A soft hum.

A shimmering light.

A gentle warmth.

The trees are communicating,

Forming a network of support,

Letting you know that you are held,

Seen,

And protected.

Notice the trees around you.

Some are ancient,

With wide trunks and deep roots.

Some are young,

Flexible,

And vibrant.

Feel the energy radiating from them.

Calm,

Strong,

And steady.

Imagine this energy reaching out to you,

Brushing against your aura,

Filling your energetic field with grounding,

Warmth,

And protection.

With each inhale,

Draw this energy into your body.

And with each exhale,

Release tension,

Stagnant energy,

And fear into the earth beneath the trees.

Visualize the trees' roots intertwining with the earth beneath you,

Creating a network of support that holds you securely.

The energy flows from the trees,

Through the earth,

And into your being.

Find a tree that calls to you.

Approach it and feel its energy enveloping you,

Like a gentle,

Protective light.

Visualize energy flowing from its roots into the earth,

Moving in waves of cleansing and release.

See the energy rise up through the tree,

Through its trunk and branches,

Into the canopy,

And then flowing toward you.

This light touches your energy field.

It's clearing blockages,

Dissolving old patterns,

And gently realigning your body,

Mind,

And spirit.

You feel lighter,

Calmer,

And more present.

Allow the energy to surround you completely,

Forming a cocoon of warmth,

Protection,

And vitality.

Breathe deeply.

With each inhale,

Absorb the forest's healing energy.

And with each exhale,

Release anything that no longer serves you.

Feel the ancient wisdom of the forest.

Sense the trees' resilience,

How they have weathered storms,

Shifted with the seasons,

And remain rooted and strong.

Draw this energy into yourself.

Let it fill your body,

Your mind,

And your heart.

Feel your nervous system calm,

Your energy field balanced,

And your spirit uplifted.

Notice the subtle spark of vitality flowing through your body,

Like sunlight filtering through leaves,

Filling every cell with strength and clarity.

Take a few final moments to bask in the forest's energy.

Feel gratitude for the trees,

Their energy,

And the support you have received.

Begin to bring awareness back to your physical body.

Feel the floor or chair beneath you.

Wiggle your fingers and toes.

Take a deep inhale and exhale fully.

Carry this grounded,

Supportive,

Energized presence with you as you move through your day.

Know that this forest's energy is always available to you.

For cleansing,

Healing,

And support.

Take one last deep breath,

And when you're ready,

Gently open your eyes.

You are safe.

You are supported.

You are energetically aligned.
