Welcome,
I'm Truly Eleanor,
A writer and healer with almost two decades of experience and a Reiki teacher since 2010.
Today we're going through a guided visualization to help you release dating anxiety and predate jitters.
So you can feel calm,
Joyful,
And fully yourself as you go out to meet someone.
I want you to close your eyes and tune into your body.
Whether you are sitting comfortably with your feet on the ground.
Or lying down and wearing a comfortable blanket,
Feeling warm and cozy.
And relaxed.
As you feel into the presence of your body,
I want you to feel the earth supporting you.
Whether it is holding you up as you lay down,
Whether it is holding you in a chair and supporting your feet on the ground,
There is the presence beneath you of the unconditional love and support from the Mother Earth who is here to guide you and connect you and plug you in to the state of eternal calm.
So you may go forward and go on your date,
Or meet someone at a networking or mingling event,
Or just to be out into the world,
Expressing your true authentic self in a way that feels good,
And without the anxiety that makes it feel impossible to be yourself.
As we dive into the root cause of our anxiety,
You may visualize yourself diving into a calm,
Clear lake.
You are diving into this water and it feels cool.
Refreshing and smooth.
Somehow comforting.
It is warm.
It is inviting,
And you enjoy.
Splashing around.
And diving deeper each and every time into this beautiful lake.
It is perfectly safe here.
There is a presence of unconditional love.
Of warm,
Supportive,
Essence and energy that surrounds you and envelopes you.
In this beautiful energy,
This water.
That is cleansing you.
Of any fears from the past,
Cleansing you of any past memories that are keeping you feeling anxious,
That take you back to situations where you were rejected,
Or situations where someone didn't like you.
Or you felt foolish for being yourself.
Somehow you felt shameful for expressing yourself and now you have a fear.
Before you go on a date and you have a fear before you meet a potential partner.
And this calm,
Clear lake that has healing powers is cleansing you on every level.
Cleansing your body,
Your mind,
Your heart,
And your spirit.
As you dive down into the depths and come back to the surface,
Feeling a breath of relief each time you come to the surface.
And then feeling this playful.
Joyful feeling of diving and splashing.
And jumping in the water.
In the distance you see a pod of dolphins coming towards you.
These beautiful dolphins are here to soothe you,
To help activate this playful and joyful part of you that you may have forgotten even existed.
You feel so happy and you start to play with these dolphins as they surround you.
You may even climb on top of one and get a ride across the lake as they take you on this adventure.
You can feel the joy coming from these beautiful dolphins,
And it is contagious,
And you activate this feeling of joy within you.
Your whole body lights up,
And you release the burdens of this anxiety.
You release the feelings from the past.
You release the memories that have kept you feeling insecure,
That have kept you feeling anxious and becoming fearful and contracted.
Before a date or before meeting someone.
You release an immense amount of tension and feel relaxed and fully in your body.
As you continue to splash around with the dolphins.
And now you realize that your body is shimmering.
As you look at your hands and your arms,
You are sparkling with light.
You are sparkling with this joyful essence.
Of who you truly are,
And you feel very calm.
You feel very centered and yet spontaneous and flexible and you can move around in the water as a dolphin.
Feeling very agile.
And playful.
And filled with possibility.
And you realize that you are filled with this light,
This sparkling essence that is you,
Fills your entire body,
It fills your heart,
Overflowing.
It is coming out of your hands and feet and extending out all the way around you,
Filling your entire energy field,
Filling the entire lake,
Which becomes a beautiful,
Sparkling diamond.
You are surrounded by this beautiful light.
You are this beautiful light.
And you feel calm.
And you feel joyful.
And you feel excited.
The kind of excited that is very confident.
The kind of excited that is very grounded.
The kind of excited where you're really looking forward to going on this date,
And you're really looking forward to meeting this person,
No matter what comes of it.
It is the pure joy of going on this date that matters.
You feel excited just to get out there and to be on this date.
To be with this person who you have chosen to spend some time with and get to know.
It is very exciting and you feel this sense of joyful anticipation.
And now I want you to take all of this energy in and feel the presence of it filling your whole body.
And as you come back into the room.
Feeling this grounded anticipation of joy.
Running through your veins.
And coming back into the room,
If fully in your body,
Fully awake,
Fully aware,
You open your eyes and look around.
And you see,
You can almost see that sparkling light that started to activate in the lake and is still there.
That shimmering essence of your joyful personality,
Of your enthusiastic presence.
Of your magnetic and joyful essence.
And to help you stay connected and calm and able to be your true,
Authentic self.
Thank you so much for joining me,
And I can't wait for you to have a joyful,
Calm experience on your date.
