Close your eyes and begin to relax.

Taking a deep breath in now.

And exhale.

Giving yourself permission to take this time for yourself.

Time to nourish your body and mind.

Imagine filling your body with warmth as you take another deep breath in.

And exhaling anything you no longer need.

Letting go of any tension and worries.

This is a time for you to release,

To relax,

To simply let go.

And one last deep breath in,

Filling your body and lungs with that warmth.

And slowly exhale,

Just letting go.

And you can let this deep breathing go for now.

And allow your breath to find its natural rhythm.

Imagine now a blanket of warmth flowing over your body from the top of your head,

Down your face and neck,

Down into your shoulders.

This warm blanket of relaxation,

Taking away any remaining tension or stress.

Down your arms.

Down your chest and stomach.

Down,

Down through your hips and thighs.

Releasing,

Relaxing.

Down your legs.

Down into your ankles and feet.

Simply letting go.

And you are ready now,

Ready to take a journey.

I would like you to imagine standing in front of a beautiful,

Ornate steel gate.

You reach out and slowly open the gate.

You can hear the hinges as it begins to open.

And on the other side,

A beautiful winter scene is revealed to you.

Snow-covered pine trees,

Rolling hills of snow.

And a snow-covered path,

Leading from the gate.

You step onto this path,

Feeling the cool,

Refreshing air brush your face.

The sound of your shoes as you take those first few steps.

The snow crunching and squeaking beneath your feet.

As you walk along this path,

You feel at ease,

Completely at ease.

As you take in all the sights and sounds.

And the further that you travel from the gate,

The more peaceful you become.

Ahead of you,

You see a fallen tree,

Its trunk lying upon the ground.

You decide to take a short rest,

And you brush the snow from the trunk of the tree.

And you sit down.

As you look around you,

You see the snow sparkling in the trees as the late afternoon sun shines through.

It's as though the trees are adorned with thousands of diamonds,

Placed there just for you.

The snow has caused the forest to become very quiet,

Very peaceful.

You look up and see that it has begun to snow.

The snowflakes dance and shimmer as they gently float to the ground,

Feeling them melt as they touch your face.

It's as if in this moment,

You are reminded of being a child,

Filled with wonder and joy,

As this beautiful scene just unfolds in front of you.

Allow yourself to simply imagine all the sights,

Sounds,

And feelings of this experience.

The Snowflakes The Snowflakes The Snowflakes The Snowflakes The Snowflakes Feeling so calm now,

And your peacefulness has drawn to you an animal,

An animal that is specific to you.

It could be a bird,

A squirrel,

A rabbit,

A deer,

Whatever it might be.

This animal will be unique to you and drawn by your energy.

You look ahead and you see your animal coming towards you now.

It's as if you recognize each other,

Happy to be reacquainted.

And your animal sits down in front of you,

And you feel a sense of connection as you look into its kind and loving eyes.

Mesmerized by the love that you feel.

Your animal turns now and begins to move down the path.

You stand up and follow it down this magical winter path,

Twisting and turning through the trees.

Feeling a sense of curiosity and wonder as to where your animal is leading you.

The sun is beginning to set and the snow taking on a bluish tint as it normally does in the evening.

And you notice up ahead,

Your animal has stopped,

Stopped at the opening of a clearing.

Through the trees you can see a warm,

Yellow glow flickering through the branches.

You walk up beside your animal now,

And from here you can see a small cabin.

That warm golden light shining out through its windows,

Reflecting off the snow.

White wispy smoke rising from its chimney on top of its snow-covered roof.

You look down at your animal now,

As if to say thank you.

It looks back to you with such loving kindness.

And you know in this moment,

You will never be alone.

This special animal will always be within your heart.

And it bows its head now and then goes back down the trail from where you came.

You turn and walk towards the cabin in front of you now.

So warm,

So comforting.

The closer you get,

The more peaceful you become.

This cabin that you know is there just for you.

You reach the front door and open it,

The warm air from within washing over you as you step inside.

You see and hear the crackling fire in the fireplace.

And there's a place to hang your winter clothes,

A table and chairs in the center of the room,

A bed on one side,

And a comfortable chair in front of the fireplace.

You hang your clothes and sit in the chair in front of the fire,

Warming your hands and feet.

The flames growing stronger and stronger,

The more relaxed you become.

And this is all just for you.

This place is yours and yours alone.

And you can stay here as long as you want,

Able to do whatever you want to do.

Feeling safe,

Feeling love,

Feeling at peace.

Very emotional. I met our little corgi who passed on last year due to a paralysis. She led me to the safety and warmth of the cottage and then scampered away with full agility.

What a wonderful journey, Edward! My spirit animal is a red tailed fox whom I had an encounter with many years ago! I would walk my neighborhood in the early morning and I noticed this fox walking in a fenced community several times! Then one day as I was walking on the road, I looked up and this fox was sitting in my path! I stopped with a few feet of him and we looked at each other for quite some time! It was quite an experience, one I will always remember! Thank you for your terrific meditation!
