Hello and welcome to a very special Halloween meditation.
Tonight we're going on a magical adventure where we'll meet friendly ghosts,
Giggling pumpkins,
And twinkling stars.
This journey will help us feel calm,
Safe,
And relaxed,
Even if things seem a bit spooky.
So find a cozy spot.
You can sit or lie down.
Take a few deep breaths,
And let's begin.
First,
Let's get comfortable.
Close your eyes gently,
Like you're tucking yourself into a warm,
Fluffy blanket.
Take a deep breath in through your nose,
And then slowly breathe out through your mouth.
Feel your body getting softer and softer,
Just like a marshmallow melting in hot cocoa.
Let's start at the top of our head.
Imagine a warm,
Glowing light,
Like a tiny pumpkin lantern,
Gently shining down.
It's traveling down,
Relaxing your forehead,
Your eyes,
Your cheeks,
And all the way to your chin.
Feel your face become soft and smooth,
Like the inside of a cozy pumpkin.
Now let that warm light move down to your neck,
Your shoulders,
And arms,
Letting them feel heavy and relaxed.
Feel it traveling down to your chest,
Your tummy,
And your back,
And imagine this light filling you up with calmness,
Just like the inside of a jack-o'-lantern.
Finally,
The light moves all the way down to your legs,
Your knees,
Ankles,
And toes.
Your whole body is now glowing with this warm,
Pumpkin-orange-filled light,
Helping you feel safe,
Calm,
And relaxed.
Now that you're feeling calm and relaxed,
Let's go on our Halloween adventure,
And imagine that you're walking down a path covered with crunchy autumn leaves.
The moon is shining brightly in the sky,
And the little stars are twinkling like lanterns,
Lighting up our way.
As you walk,
You notice a soft,
Glowing light ahead.
It's a friendly ghost,
But don't worry,
This ghost isn't scary at all.
In fact,
It's smiling and waving at you.
As you get closer,
The ghost whispers,
Welcome friend,
Would you like to float with me for a while?
You nod,
And suddenly you feel as light as a feather.
The ghost takes your hand,
And you both start to float up,
Up,
And up into the sky.
You're floating above the treetops,
Where you can see all the little houses glowing with their jack-o'-lanterns.
Feel the wind gently blowing past you,
Just like a soft,
Spooky breeze.
As you float along,
You see a field filled with pumpkins of all shapes and sizes,
But these aren't ordinary pumpkins.
They're giggling and wiggling all around.
One of the pumpkins looks up at you and says,
We love to laugh because it helps us to feel happy and calm,
Even on spooky nights like this.
You and the ghost float down and sit with the pumpkins for a moment,
And you join them in taking three deep breaths.
Let's begin.
Take a big breath in,
And a big breath out.
A little giggle,
Just like the pumpkins.
Let's do it again.
Breathe in,
And out with a giggle.
One more time.
Big breath in,
And out with a big,
Happy giggle.
Feel the calmness and happiness filling you up,
Just like the little pumpkins glow from the inside.
After spending some time with the giggling pumpkins,
The friendly ghost guides you to a quiet hill.
Here you lie down on a soft grass,
And you look up at the starry sky.
The stars are twinkling and sparkling,
And you realize that each one is a little wish just waiting to be made.
Think of something that makes you feel happy,
Or something you want to feel more of,
Like kindness,
Courage,
Or peace.
Now pick a star,
And look up at it.
Or peace.
Now pick a star,
And whisper your wish to it.
Imagine that the star hears it,
And begins to twinkle even brighter,
Sending your wish out into the world.
Feel how calm and safe it feels to have your wish floating around in the sky with all the other stars.
It's time to say goodbye to your new ghost friend,
And all the giggling pumpkins.
The ghost gives you a gentle hug,
And you feel a warm,
Tingling feeling throughout your whole body,
From the top of your head to the tip of your nose.
Slowly,
You begin to float back down,
Feeling yourself returning to your cozy spot where we began this journey.
As you gently land,
Feel your body become heavier,
And more relaxed,
Knowing you are safe,
Warm,
And completely at peace.
Take a deep breath in,
And a deep breath out,
Wiggling your fingers and wiggling your toes.
And when you're ready,
Gently let go.
Gently open your eyes.
Welcome back.
You did an amazing job on our Halloween spooky calm adventure.
Remember,
Whenever you feel a little bit nervous,
Or scared,
You can always come back to this place of calm,
Where even the spookiest things can be friendly and fun.
Thank you for joining me.
Sweet dreams,
And happy Halloween.
