Close your eyes now.
Allow your body to settle.
Become comfortable wherever you are.
And begin by focusing on your breath,
Slowing it down,
Taking a couple of gentle deep breaths.
And then as you're breathing gently and slowly,
Focus on the centre of your being.
Focus upon your heart.
And see the light there.
This light is you,
Your soul,
Your connection to the source of divine energy and all healing.
Focus on that light,
Allowing it to grow.
Focus on a sense of being connected to yourself and to that which you call divine.
And as it grows,
Allow it to spread through your body.
Feel the energy as it moves through you.
That glowing light spreading through your whole physical body.
And it's growing stronger,
And it's growing brighter.
And it's going to keep growing until it's beyond your physical body and out into your energy field.
Just keep breathing gently.
Keep your awareness on the light.
See that glow extending out into your energy field until you are aware of your whole self as a glowing being of light.
And now bring to mind a place in nature,
Real or imagined.
This is a place that holds great power for you.
So wherever you are now,
Visualise it strongly.
Feel the ground beneath your feet.
Feel the movement of air around you.
Breathe it in.
Feel your connection to the land and all its creatures.
Know that you are rooted and held here in your power place.
Now's the time to call your true self to come forward and meet you.
See them coming towards you.
They may look the same as you do in the real world.
They may look a little different.
Just allow your true self to present themselves to you.
Look into their eyes.
Spend some time in their company.
For this is who you truly are.
They hold the blueprint of everything that you love.
Everything that you can be.
All of your possibilities.
So look deeply into the eyes of your true self.
And then take your true self into you,
Into your body.
Feel yourself merge.
Feel your true self nestled strongly and comfortably within you.
This is who you truly are.
And they were always present.
See yourself glowing,
Filled with divine light in your place of power and in full connection with your true self.
And now you call forward your body protector energy.
It might be an animal or a bird.
It might be an elemental or other magical being.
Your body protector is the one who takes care of you and protects you.
Every time you journey,
Every time you dream,
Every time you do healing work.
And even when you're walking around in the physical world,
Allow your body protector to be shown to you.
For this is an energy you can get to know well and connect with regularly.
Spend some time with them now.
For this relationship is unique to you and should be kept private.
And in a moment,
As you watch,
You'll see your body protector transform into a cloak,
A cloak of protection.
And you're going to put on this cloak,
Wrap it around your whole body,
Pull the hood up over your head.
Feel yourself strong and protected.
And finally,
We're going to call forth one more ally,
Your gatekeeper.
The gatekeeper is the guardian of how much energy and how much information you are exposed to.
Doesn't matter if you can't see them clearly,
You may just feel their presence.
The gatekeeper is the one who helps us to manage our energy boundaries.
There will be times when we wish to be open to more energy flow,
To be more sensitive and to have more access to information for the work that we do.
In those times,
We can ask the gatekeeper to open up the gate and allow more energy and more information to flow.
Equally,
If there are times when it feels like there is too much energy coming through,
Ask them to close the gate.
Spend a couple of moments now asking them to open the gate a little and then to close it again so you can see how that feels.
Know that you can call upon your gatekeeper at any time when you need help with this.
And as we start to bring this meditation to a close,
Ask your gatekeeper to close the gateway now to whatever would be appropriate for you to go about your day.
Remember that you are a being of pure light,
Glowing from within with your light of the divine.
Remember that you are always connected to the power in the land.
Remember that your true self,
Your true nature is present within you.
Remember that your body protector is with you and you wear its cloak of protection around your body and around your energy body.
And remember that your gatekeeper is always present.
And if at any time today,
Any time ever,
You feel overwhelmed by the energies of others,
Or if the energy is just flowing through you a bit too strongly,
You can ask your gatekeeper to adjust the connection and help you to feel grounded and safe.
You can connect with this visualisation again any time if you feel the need.
For now,
Know that you have stacked your power and you're ready for what awaits you next.
So now take a couple of deep,
Slow breaths and slowly bring yourself back to normal awareness.
Strong,
Protected and true and ready to go out into the world.
