.

Finding your inner child.

.

.

Evoking memory.

.

.

And initiating play.

.

.

Tuition and creativity.

.

.

I want you to imagine that you're standing on soft,

Silky sand.

.

.

Staring out into the ocean.

.

.

The waves crashing along the shore.

.

.

Just breathe.

.

.

Connecting in with the rhythm of your heartbeat.

.

.

Just smile to your heart.

.

.

Cultivating a loving,

Healing energy in your body.

.

.

Just breathe.

.

.

When you're ready,

Begin to walk along the shore.

.

.

Feeling the sun setting behind you.

.

.

The warm glow of the rain that kisses your skin.

.

.

And the air holds you.

.

.

It's a warm summer night.

.

.

And you feel as if you're radiating golden light from the inside out.

.

.

Walk and feel that soft,

Silky sand soothe your feet.

.

.

And as you walk along the shore,

You start to notice in the distance.

.

.

That there is an opening in the trees.

.

.

Above you is a forest.

.

.

You start to walk towards this gateway.

.

.

As you come closer to the entrance,

You look up towards the leaves bustling.

.

.

In the wind,

And you greet the forest.

.

.

Holding your palms out in front of you.

.

.

Sending out a clear image to all the animals in the forest that you are about to enter.

.

.

Make it known that you would like your pathway to be clear.

.

.

Now announce your name into the forest and hear her invite you in.

.

.

Breathe.

.

.

Connect in with the rhythm of your heartbeat.

.

.

And smile.

.

.

Radiating out the loving healing energy through your body.

.

.

As you walk barefoot along the branches and the soil.

.

.

The rotting leaves,

The bone,

The bugs.

.

.

Just take in your surroundings.

.

.

Notice any sensations arising within you as you walk deeper.

.

.

And deeper into the forest.

.

.

You can begin to hear the sound of a bird's melody.

.

.

And listen to the quality of this bird's song.

.

.

The feeling that arises within you.

.

.

And follow it.

.

.

Allowing this bird to reveal itself to you.

.

.

And let it guide you into the forest.

.

.

Take a moment to acknowledge its feathers.

.

.

Its facial features.

.

.

And its language towards you.

.

.

And smile to this bird.

.

.

Trusting the process.

.

.

Knowing that it's leading you to where you need to be.

.

.

In this moment now.

.

.

Start to see your path clearing.

.

.

And you begin to approach an ancient grandmother tree.

.

.

As you approach her you tread gently.

.

.

Standing before her and looking all the way up.

.

.

High into the sky where her branches blossom.

.

.

Where her leaves rustle in the wind.

.

.

And you smile up at her.

.

.

Moving your head once again all the way down.

.

.

From her leaves to her branches.

.

.

To her trunk deeply down towards the ground.

.

.

Where her body reaches the soil.

.

.

And she digs deep into the earth with her roots.

.

.

Approach her and embrace her.

.

.

Hug her.

.

.

Feel her comforting you.

.

.

Smile.

.

.

Allow her like an ancient mother to receive you.

.

.

Soften into her.

.

.

Allow her to draw out.

.

.

Or that's no longer serving you.

.

.

To fill you.

.

.

With deep compassionate love.

.

.

Breathe.

.

.

Feeling your entire body melt into the earth.

.

.

When you're ready.

.

.

Notice that there is a young child.

.

.

Around you.

.

.

This is your inner child.

.

.

Take a moment to greet him or her.

.

.

And notice any sensations arising.

.

.

Here.

.

.

And greet you back.

.

.

Now reach your hand out to your inner child.

.

.

Let them take you and lead you deeper into the forest.

.

.

Take a moment to acknowledge the path that you are walking.

.

.

Just like your inner child.

.

.

Breathe everything before your eyes with wonderment.

.

.

As if it was the first time.

.

.

To see such glory.

.

.

And now your child has brought you.

.

.

To its magical space in the forest.

.

.

This will look different for everyone.

.

.

So just take a moment to soak it in.

.

.

Your inner child will be asking you to witness him or her.

.

.

Completely comfortable in their element.

.

.

Playing,

Creating,

Being joyful and light.

.

.

Allow this feeling to wash over you.

.

.

Just witness them.

.

.

You might want to even partake.

.

.

And just notice any sensations arising within you.

.

.

What are you being led to do.

.

.

To embody,

To feel?

When you've had sufficient time now.

.

.

Take your inner child by the hand.

.

.

And ask them to show you.

.

.

What brings them pain.

.

.

Take a moment here.

.

.

And feel into where they guide you.

.

.

Acknowledging the pathway.

.

.

And the sensations arising within you.

.

.

This aspect may feel uncomfortable.

.

.

But give yourself a moment.

.

.

For your inner child to reveal to you.

.

.

Or his deepest pain.

.

.

Taking your surroundings.

.

.

Allow the experience to wash over you.

.

.

Now when you're ready.

.

.

I invite you to take your inner child by the hand.

.

.

And you lead your inner child along a path in the forest.

.

.

To a space that feels peaceful.

.

.

Loving,

Gentle,

Filled with flowers.

.

.

Plants,

Animals.

.

.

That remind you of home.

.

.

That offer a deep sense of comfort.

.

.

You may come to a clearing in the forest.

.

.

Where there's a lot of golden light streaming through from the trees.

.

.

There may be butterflies spiralling around you.

.

.

There may be even presents of fairies and angels.

.

.

Please be allow yourself to surrender in this moment.

.

.

Sit your inner child down.

.

.

Stare them in the eye.

.

.

With a smile.

.

.

Completely acknowledging and witnessing them.

.

.

All that they are.

.

.

Thank them.

.

.

For showing up.

.

.

And tell them that you're always present and available to hear their messages and insight.

.

.

Offer them a little gift before you go.

.

.

And acknowledge what comes from your palm and into theirs.

.

.

This will be a reminder for you when you choose to journey again with your inner child.

.

.

That you can ask them to return the gift.

.

.

To ensure that it's truly them you are engaging with.

.

.

Breathe.

.

.

Notice the rhythm of your heartbeat.

.

.

And call upon your bird to guide you out of the forest.

.

.

Hear the melody arrive and follow it.

.

.

Once again being guided by the feathers,

The facial features and the body language of the bird.

.

.

Noticing any sensations arising within you as you walk away from your inner child.

.

.

Fully embodied and moving back towards the ocean.

.

.

Feel your feet pressed up against the earth.

.

.

Touching the leaves,

The rocks,

The soil,

The roots,

The bones.

.

.

Smell the moss and the rocks.

.

.

The water running through the forest.

.

.

The clear crystal smells of the ocean now become more fragrant.

.

.

That salty air wiffling through.

.

.

Just now walk towards the waves as you hear the sound of them crashing against the shore.

.

.

Leading you closer towards the entrance.

.

.

And as you exit the forest.

.

.

Thank her.

.

.

And return back onto the sand.

.

.

Feeling the soft silky texture beneath your feet.

.

.

And just slowly walk towards the ocean.

.

.

You may want to sit down now.

.

.

Just give yourself time to acknowledge your experience.

.

.

Letting it sink into your memory.

.

.

Just place your hand of your heart.

.

.

And smile.

.

.

Cultivating a loving,

Healing energy in the body.

.

.

When you're ready,

You can slowly come back to the rhythm of your heartbeat.

.

.

Allow this to gently bring you back into the present moment.

.

.

Gently when you're ready,

You may open your eyes.

.
