The Element Meditation I want you to imagine now that you are standing in a beautiful garden.
You are surrounded by a variety of blossoming trees and flowers.
Just look at them and get immersed in their intense beauty.
Feel the refreshing summer wind caressing your skin.
Inhale sweet essence of wildflowers.
You can even touch their petals and feel the softness under your fingertips.
Just notice and experience all that surrounds you.
In front of you you can see a path that leads through the garden all the way down to a small stream.
You can already hear the gentle hum of its waters and you follow that sound until you reach the stream.
There is a small bridge connecting each side of the stream.
I want you to stand on it and look down on the water flowing gently beneath you.
You feel an urge to put your hands into your pockets.
There are many small rocks in there and as you take them out you realize that they represent all your worries and sorrows.
As you relax even deeper now you know that you don't need them anymore.
So just tip your hand now and let the rocks fall into the water.
See them float away taking your worries along with them.
Just notice how light and joyful you feel now.
So much lighter and happier.
Look up now.
There is an angel flying towards you from the heavens.
It's your guardian angel and he's beautiful.
You feel amazing peace and love flowing from him to your heart.
The angel wants to show you something.
Takes your hand and you feel so safe with him that you agree to take a short journey.
Holding hands you both raise up to the sky.
You fly high over the garden higher and higher.
You feel amazing lightness and peace.
You can see forests and lakes and mountains that you pass over and all these views are so wonderful that they calm all your senses.
Slowly you lower down onto a delightful mountain meadow.
The air up here is so crystal clear.
You just inhale it and feel the life force energy that fills you up.
As you breathe you feel more strength and inner power.
Each cell of your body is cleansing and filling up on healing oxygen.
At the same time your soul draws from universal energy.
As you breathe you feel connected with nature.
Thank the air for its existence.
Holding your angel's hand you fly away again.
You're passing the valleys,
Lakes,
Vast flatlands.
Somewhere down you notice a bonfire and that's where you land.
You feel pleasant warmth that it's giving out.
You hear the quiet melody of sizzling wood.
The fire destroys what is unneeded.
I want you to imagine now that you can take all your old patterns and negative beliefs,
All those things that were standing on your path to full happiness.
Just throw them into the fire now and watch them burn and dissolve into oblivion.
As you watch the fire you feel connected with nature.
Thank the fire for its existence.
You and your angel go on flying.
You pass the forests,
Hills and dunes until you reach a sea.
You land on the beach and just notice the feeling of sand underneath your feet.
You feel an urge to clean yourself in the salty water.
Slowly walk into the sea,
Safely and calmly and let the waves touch you,
Washing off all the tensions from your body and all the boundaries from your mind.
You realize that you can do anything that you want.
As the water gently caresses you,
You feel connected with nature.
Thank the water for its existence.
Again the angel takes your hand and again you fly high over the forests and the lakes.
You are over a huge empty field now.
You notice that the ground is freshly ploughed and it's ready to take in the seeds.
You land on the rich fertile ground.
Touch the earth,
Take it into your hands and feel the song of a new life that it sings.
As you touch the earth you feel connected with nature.
Your angel gives you a seed,
This is a seed of your dream.
Plant it now,
Knowing that it will grow easily and strongly,
Supported by the forces of the universe.
Thank the earth for its existence.
You raise up again and your angel leads you over breathtaking views and you feel completely connected with all that surrounds you.
You know that just like the earth,
Air,
Fire and water are part of the nature,
So are you.
Inside you have a spark of universe just like in a plant,
Animal,
Mountain and lake.
You feel unity with all that exists.
You feel love flowing from you to all the creation and the creation responds by sending even more love to you.
You feel happy.
Slowly you come back to the garden where you started your journey.
Standing again on a small bridge you bid farewell to your guardian angel and you thank him for this amazing experience.
The angel flies away but you know that he's always watching over you,
Ready to help whenever you ask.
Now just allow yourself a few minutes of quiet relaxation.
Listen to the beautiful music,
To your own breath.
Let the complete calmness cover you like a soft warm blanket.
If you're listening to this meditation before you go to sleep,
Just let yourself drift off into the land of dreams.
Or if you need to come back to here and now.
When I count from one up to five you will let your eyes open.
You are calm,
Rested,
Refreshed,
Relaxed and feeling good.
One,
Slowly,
Calmly,
Easily returning to your full awareness once again.
Two,
Each muscle and nerve in your body is loose,
Limp and relaxed.
You feel wonderfully good.
Three,
From head to toe you're feeling perfect in every way.
Four,
Your eyes begin to feel sparkling clean,
Just as though they were bathed in a cool spring water.
On the next number now you will let your eyes open.
You are calm,
Rested,
Refreshed,
Relaxed and feeling good.
Five,
Eyes open now,
Take a deep breath,
Fill up your lungs,
Stretch and smile.
