The Magical Garden Of your Mind, Clear Out Unhelpful Beliefs

Now the beautiful thing about listening to this right now is that it means that it's time to relax.

It's time for you to give yourself that shift,

That change in energy that you need to experience right now inside of yourself.

And you can begin by taking a beautiful deep breath and imagining that feeling of letting go with every exhale,

Releasing all of those things that you no longer need.

That's right.

And with every inhale,

You can begin to feel a sense of ease and calm,

Almost as if you're breathing in clean energy as you continue letting go.

And with each breath,

You can begin to notice other things around.

Perhaps you're following my voice and hearing the shapes of my words or noticing the space between the words and following my sentences,

Knowing that nothing really makes sense until you arrive at the end.

And that's okay,

Because there's a part of you that's following my voice and allowing my voice to go with you now in whatever way is just right for you.

Perhaps it's like a whisper in your ear,

Or maybe it's that breeze blowing through the trees,

Or perhaps it's reassuring as you imagine being led safely by the hand in that comforting way,

Or maybe it's something else entirely.

And in a moment,

You're going to begin to drift even further inside and you'll know it's happening because you can begin to experience those pleasant sensations of comfort and calm.

And I don't know how you'll experience these in your body right now.

Maybe it's a gentle wave of relaxation,

Or maybe it's a pleasant feeling of completely letting go now and realizing that you have nowhere to be right now.

Nothing you need to think and nobody you need to be.

And you can enjoy this space that's opening in front of you,

Knowing that you can go even deeper inside of yourself and find everything that you're looking for right there.

And you can even imagine it as if it was a journey,

Like sitting in the back of a car,

Just looking out of the window,

Noticing the gentle motion and the feeling of being transported somewhere important,

Somewhere that you've been longing to visit.

And you can watch the world go by,

Passing the window.

And in a moment,

You're going to arrive in a place that seems to be the middle of nowhere,

But nowhere is always somewhere.

And this is a very special somewhere,

A beautiful spot surrounded by trees and grass and blue skies.

And you can step out of the car and stand for a moment and close those eyes to feel the warmth of the sun on your face,

Tingling on your skin and breathe that fresh air,

Taking in all that you need to be recharged because there's a very special power in nature,

Something that speaks to us deep inside.

And as you begin to walk now down the winding path into those trees,

You can notice the sounds of the birds singing their morning songs.

And it's as if inside of those songs,

There's a message,

Especially for you,

Something that nature wants you to know.

And I'm going to be quiet for a moment while you imagine what that message could be.

What do you hear inside of that song?

Perhaps it's words,

Or perhaps it's just a feeling that begins to grow inside.

And then as you begin to walk through those trees,

You can look up and notice the wind gently moving the leaves,

Feeling the breeze on your face,

Noticing the colors,

The shades of green,

Noticing the colors around.

And you can keep on moving through this place,

Knowing that your mind has a natural gift for making all kinds of connections.

So in a moment,

When you arrive at the garden of your mind,

You will be able to find the parts of you that need care and love.

And I'm going to count those steps as you approach that garden now.

Perhaps you can look down at your feet as I'm counting and notice the ground moving beneath with each step.

One,

Two,

Three,

Four,

Arriving now at the garden of your mind.

And I don't know what it is that you notice the most in this place.

And I know you want to be able to change some of the things in your life.

I don't know what they are,

Perhaps the thoughts that you have that get in the way of achieving all of those brilliant goals that you want to achieve.

Or maybe it's feelings that come up from time to time.

But inside of this special garden now,

Your mind can find a way,

A way for you to change those things that you need to change.

And perhaps as you walk through this space now,

And look around,

You can find the plants that don't really belong here.

Maybe they're weeds of some kind.

And I'm going to be quiet for a moment while you find those weeds that need to be pulled.

And I know that you know how to do that right now.

And you can enjoy pulling up those weeds one by one and putting them in a pile in the middle of the garden.

And it doesn't matter if you're aware of what each of those weeds represents in your life right now.

Or perhaps it's happening outside of your conscious awareness.

And that's okay,

Because your mind knows the importance of the work that you're about to do right now.

So I'm going to be quiet while you enjoy making that pile of weeds in the center of this place.

All of those beliefs that don't serve you,

All of those thoughts that drive you away from your goals.

And it's okay to allow those in for a moment now and to give them a form and a shape.

And when they're there,

Piled up in the middle of the lawn,

I want you to imagine bringing a flame,

A beautiful,

Bright,

Burning flame.

Perhaps you can feel the heat on your face and notice the orange and the red dancing.

And you can light those weeds and watch them burn,

Watching the smoke rise up into the sky and hearing the crackle of the flames and the light reflecting in your eyes as your mind is removing all of those things that no longer serve you.

And when it's all burned away,

And only when it's all burned away,

You'll look down and you'll notice the soot on the floor,

The black charred dust.

And this is a special dust because you can take this dust now and you can use it to fertilize and strengthen the thoughts and ideas and beliefs that take you towards your dreams.

So as you look around the garden now,

You can find a plant somewhere that represents the thing that you want most in life.

And as you're looking at that plant,

Your mind is making that connection between the dream that you have and the things you need to do to make that dream a reality.

And perhaps those things that you need to do are like a movie now playing somewhere.

And you can imagine yourself doing all of those things one by one with a smile on your face and a lightness in your heart.

And you can begin to scoop up handfuls of that black dust and notice the texture in your hands because you know that this is all that's left now of those old beliefs,

The things that were getting in your way.

And as you begin to spread that dust around,

Transforming inside,

You can be aware that it contains the energy,

The energy that you are putting into those old and helpful beliefs and actions,

The things that you wanted to change that are no longer a part of you.

And gathering that energy now in your hands,

Feeling that dust,

The particles,

Each one potential.

And you can begin to spread that dust around your garden using that energy now to help you instead of holding you back.

And you can find those plants that need the most love and the most care,

The vulnerable parts of you.

Maybe they're looking a bit wilted or a bit uncared for.

And you can use this magical dust to place your energy into those parts of you now,

Tending them with love,

Trimming away the leaves,

Whispering words of comfort.

You can.

You are love.

You can thrive and grow.

You can reach up to the stars and breathe.

And as you go around this garden now,

Giving energy to the plants that need it the most,

Watering the flowers and taking care of yourself as only you can,

Because the only person that matters in this world is you and what you think and feel about yourself.

And you can appreciate all of the goodness that's here in this garden,

All of the great things about you and what you can do when you are your very best.

And I'm going to be quiet now while you enjoy sitting in your magical space,

Perhaps noticing the birds around and the trees and the wind blowing through the trees and just enjoying being who you are and knowing that when you leave this place and drift off into a deep and peaceful sleep,

You'll wake up feeling chained.

And just as you once learned how to speak and how to walk and that it's okay to fall sometimes because we can always get back up,

You've learned something special here today,

That you can take care of yourself in a way that nobody else can,

That you can love yourself in a way that nobody else can.

And I know you can get a sense of exactly what that's like right now,

Feeling that love for yourself in your heart as you appreciate all the areas of your mind and your life and recognize that you have the power to shape your life.

And as you stretch out now on the ground and look up at the sky above and imagine closing your eyes and seeing yourself achieving all of your dreams and taking action in such a way that your mind understands exactly what you need to do when you open your eyes in the morning.

And all you have to do is want something enough.

And I know that you know what you want.

And as you enjoy imagining those things right now,

You can sleep,

Sleep,

Sleep.
