Make yourself comfortable and close your eyes.
Take a slow,
Deep breath and release any tension that you're feeling as you feel yourself sinking into the surface you're resting on,
Becoming more comfortable and relaxed with each breath.
Take another slow,
Deep breath and release your thoughts,
Letting them drift far away.
And take another slow,
Deep breath and know that in this moment all is well.
Bring your awareness to your heart in the centre of your chest and notice a softness there,
A feeling of peace.
Take a moment to enjoy this feeling as you quietly focus in on your heart and follow your breath in and out.
Now bring your focus more deeply into your heart as if you were standing there right now inside a cosy little room.
And imagine that there are,
Deep in your heart room,
You find a beautiful cord woven of golden threads.
But as you look more carefully at the cord,
You see that it has become severed,
Broken in half.
One side of this cord leads up to your mind and the other connects into your heart.
This cord,
When whole and properly in place,
Allows you to know with certainty that you have the answers you need within you.
This cord allows you to tap into your inner wisdom and receive direction that's good and true for you.
And know that you can trust and use your own inner direction in your daily life.
In short,
It allows you to trust yourself.
In order to mend and restore this cord,
You'll envision yourself in three scenarios in your life.
Knowing,
Following and trusting your own inner guidance.
To begin,
Consider a situation in your life where you have uncertainty and need to know what to do.
You might normally ask someone else's advice,
But not this time.
Imagine yourself going within into your own heart.
Feel the presence and power of your own inner knowing,
Your own wisdom.
Your own wisdom is rich and powerful and comes from all the experiences that you've ever had.
Imagine you're plugging into all that accumulated wisdom and becoming filled with inner certainty.
Any stress you may have experience about what to do is dissolving as a feeling of calm,
Quiet assurance comes over you.
Take another look at that golden cord in your heart and you'll see that now it's partially mended.
Some of the threads are still unconnected,
But it's definitely better than it was before.
Consider another situation where you might be faced with a need for advice or direction.
Imagine again going within into your own heart.
Feel the presence and power of your own inner knowing,
Your own wisdom.
Again,
Your own wisdom is rich and powerful and very deep.
Imagine you're plugging into all your accumulated wisdom and becoming filled with inner certainty.
Any stress you may have experience about what to do is dissolving as a feeling of calm,
Quiet assurance comes over you.
Take another look at that cord in your heart and you'll see that now it's almost entirely mended.
There are still a few threads that need to be healed,
But it's well on its way and you definitely feel stronger inside.
Consider one more situation where you might be faced with a need for advice or direction.
Imagine yourself going within into your own heart.
Feel the presence and power of your own inner knowing,
Your own wisdom.
Imagine plugging into it and becoming filled with inner certainty.
Any stress you may have experience about what to do is dissolving as a feeling of calm,
Quiet assurance comes over you.
Now look at that beautiful golden cord in your heart.
It's completely mended with no sign that it was ever broken.
In fact,
It's radiating with light.
Your heart and mind are connected now and you have full confidence in your own inner wisdom.
Listen to the following affirmations and allow them to resonate deep within.
You might like to repeat them silently to yourself as you hear them.

It will soon be time to bring this inner journey to a close.
But first,
Take a moment to thank yourself for giving yourself this gift.
You have the ability,
Deep within,
To know whatever you need to know in any given situation.
And you can trust yourself.
Allow all the benefits of this experience to stay with you as you gently bring your awareness back to your physical body.
Take your time and when you're ready,
Open your eyes and feel awake,
Alert and refreshed.
Thank you.
