Welcome,
My dear friend.
Take a deep breath in and gently exhale.
Arrive at this moment that is just for you.
This is your sacred space,
A space to rest,
A space to listen,
To soften into the deeper reasons behind your stillness,
A space where procrastination becomes a portal,
Not a problem.
Imagine now that you are stepping through a soft veil,
The outer world begins to quiet and the inner sanctuary opens before you.
You are safe here.
You are held here.
You are protected here.
There is no expectations,
Nothing needs to be fixed.
This is a space of acceptance where you can be exactly who you are.
Let us open the sacred circle.
From the east,
I call in Eagle,
Clear-sighted,
Visionary,
Lifting you beyond confusing and self-judgment.
From the south,
I call in Jaguar,
Protector of boundaries,
Master of hidden fears,
Helping you walk bravely into the unknown.
From the west,
I invite the whale,
Keeper of ancient memory,
Diving into emotional currents with compassion.
From the north,
I welcome Wolf,
Wise teacher,
Guide of the soul's wilderness,
Whispering,
You are already on your way.
From above,
The dragon of light,
Circles in golden flames,
Illuminating truth,
Sovereignty and soul's fire.
From below,
The serpent of the earth,
Coils beneath you gently,
Rooting,
Stabilizing and anchoring you into safety and presence.
Imagine a column of golden light surrounding you,
From above your crown to beneath your feet,
Creating a protective,
High-frequency cocoon.
Only truth,
Love and clarity may enter.
Bring your attention to your body.
Notice the breath,
The gentle rise and fall.
Notice where your body touches the earth or the seat beneath you.
Let yourself feel the love.
Feel being held by gravity,
The earth and this moment.
Imagine roots extending from your body,
Down through your feet,
Hips or spine,
Weaving into the soil,
The stone,
The deep bedrock.
With every breath,
Feel yourself descending deeper into steadiness.
You are safe.
You are supported.
You are not alone.
Gently scan your energy field.
Feel into your root,
The base of your spine.
Is it tight?
Uncertain,
Heavy?
Breathe into it.
Imagine a warm,
Red glow pulsing there.
Move up to your sacral center.
Is there guilt,
Longing or a shut-down desire?
Let it soften with your breath.
Continue up to your solar plexus,
Your heart,
Throat,
Third eye and crown.
Let each energy center open gently,
Without force.
You are not trying to push through.
You are simply listening.
Your whole being begins to hum in harmony.
A gentle,
Honest harmony that holds all parts of you.
Even the stuck,
Silent,
Scared parts.
Feel them opening,
Realigning to the truth of you.
Settling into your authentic voice,
Your love,
Kindness and compassion.
Sitting in this space,
This beautiful container of safety,
Of freedom,
Of connecting with your authentic self,
You are invited to seek guidance by inviting a guide,
A spirit,
Ancestor or animal ally who wishes to walk with you through this exploration.
Perhaps it is your own future self,
Already living in her fullness and ease.
Maybe a deer,
Whispering of gentleness,
Or a turtle,
Reminding you that slowness is sacred too.
Feel their presence near you,
No judgment,
Only love.
Let them place a hand,
A paw or a wing on your shoulder.
You are not alone in this journey.
You are surrounded by guides,
Spirits,
Ancestors,
Animal allies,
All here to support you.
Feel their presence near you,
Full of love,
Kindness,
And they're seeing you,
Connected with this beautiful ally.
Let's take a moment to whisper your intention softly,
Truthfully to your guide.
It may sound like,
I want to understand why I freeze.
I am ready to meet the fear beneath my stillness.
I no longer want to abandon my dreams.
Let your body speak through sensations,
Feelings,
Or images.
There is no wrong way to show up here.
Take one more breath and feel the sacred space alive around you,
Held by guide,
Supported by light,
Rooted in truth.
You are ready.
Let us begin to deeper your journey into the soul of procrastination.
To discover the unmet need,
The old protector,
The tender wisdom that has been waiting beneath the silence.
Let yourself be guided inward now.
Imagine yourself standing before a quiet doorway.
It glows faintly,
Familiar,
Though you may have avoided it before.
This is the threshold of understanding.
The place where procrastination is no longer the enemy,
But a messenger.
With breath as your companion,
Step through the doorway.
Find yourself in a soft,
Dream-like forest.
Mists drift through the ancient trees.
You are safe here.
This is your inner world,
Your inner sanctuary.
A path formed beneath your feet,
Winding towards a place where part of you has been waiting.
The part that delays,
Avoid,
Resists.
Not because it's lazy or flawed,
But because it's scared,
Tired,
Or unheard.
As you walk,
Notice what the forest reveals.
Are there stones on your path?
Tangled root?
Each one might be a story,
A memory,
A belief.
Perhaps you hear a whisper.
I am afraid to fall.
If I finish this,
What if it's not good enough?
I don't know what or who I'll be if I move forward.
I'm so tired of trying.
Pause here.
Place a hand over your heart and whisper this.
I hear you now.
I will not shame you for pausing.
I am here to understand,
Not to punish.
Imagine a small flame ahead.
A firelight flickering in a forest clearing.
Move towards it.
There,
Sitting by the fire,
Is a version of you.
The one who procrastinates.
Notice how they sit.
What do they carry?
What do their eyes say?
Sit beside them.
You don't need to fix them.
Just listen.
Ask gently with curiosity.
What are you protecting me from?
What do you need from me to feel safe?
To move forward?
What am I truly afraid of?
And wait.
There may be words or images or peace in the silence.
Whatever arrives is perfect.
Take a breath and receive the wisdom.
If it feels right,
Reach out and offer this version of you a hand.
Invite them to walk with you.
Not behind.
Not hidden.
They are no longer exiled.
They are a part of your whole.
Integrated self.
Together,
Turn back towards the path.
Feel the forest shift.
More open.
Less tangled.
And walk together.
Enjoy the conversation.
And learn,
Embrace the wisdom that is being shared.
Begin to return now.
Slowly.
Gently.
Gratefully.
The doorway appears once more.
As you cross the thresholds.
Bring back with you only what feels accurate.
Helpful.
And kind.
Leave behind the old stories that no longer serve.
Back in the here and now.
Take a deep breath in.
And release.
Feel your body.
Feel the earth.
Feel the energy of the sacred circle still around you.
With deep gratitude,
We now close this sacred circle.
To the eagle in the east.
Thank you for your clarity.
To jaguar in the south.
Thank you for your fierce protection.
To the whale in the west.
Thank you for your depth and compassion.
To wolf in the north.
Thank you for your guidance.
Above we thank the dragon of light.
Below we thank the serpent of earth.
We are held.
We are grounded.
We are whole.
Place your hands once more over your heart.
And say to yourself softly.
I no longer need to run from the part of me that waits.
I understand her now.
I choose to move with kindness.
Not force.
My timing is sacred.
And I trust the unfolding.
When you are ready,
Gently return to the space around you.
Bring with you clarity.
Compassion.
And the courage to begin.
One loving step at a time.
Welcome back.
And welcome home.
