Welcome. It's great to have you here. Stretch out and get comfortable. We have a lovely healing adventure planned for you. Let's start with some basic exercises to quiet your mind and body. Close your eyes. Letting your belly rise on the inhale and fall on the exhale. Take a few deep cleansing breaths. Now breathe in on a three count and out for six. Nothing too forceful and you can rest for a beat or two at the bottom of your exhale without pushing the breath out. Let's do that for a few cycles. Can you feel yourself unwinding? Let's let go of the counting now and just continue a gentle rhythm of breathing. Inhale, Exhale. Nice and smooth. Now bring your attention to your jaw and notice if you're holding any tension there. On your exhale, Release any tightness and feel your jaw soften. Bring that same focus to your neck and shoulders and again, Release any tension, Letting those areas go soft. Your body should be feeling a bit heavier right now. That's good. Feel the cushions or mat underneath you supporting your weight as you let gravity pull your body toward the earth. With each exhale, Release any tension you're holding in any other part of your body. Breathe in comfort, Breathe out stress. Now that you're feeling more peaceful, You're ready to begin traveling inward and upward. I'll be guiding you into a new experience, But you'll hold on to this deep level of relaxation, Which is the perfect state for healing to take hold. This journey is an adventure for your spirit, But you'll remain safe, Always tethered to your body through your breath. It's late afternoon on a warm summer day, The sun low in the sky, And you're slowly making your way downriver in a light and nimble kayak. All along the green bank, Weeping willows and swamp maples drape themselves over the water, Waving you through lengthening patches of shade. Look over the side of the boat and watch the muted colors of the riverbed float past. The gray, Blue, And maroon hues of the rocks, Random stalks of lime green vegetation, And the flashing silver of fish darting in the slow moving current. Songbirds and cicadas serenade as you lazily make your way downstream. Take some time to soak up the beauty of this day, Coming to a close on the river. The kayak has drifted into a deep channel where the riverbed is no longer discernible. The sun is a huge orange ball, Shooting streaks of pink and gold into a lavender sky, Illuminating the river's dark, Placid surface. As the sun slowly sinks into the horizon, You spot your destination just a short distance ahead, A small island in the middle of the river. Go ahead and paddle towards the shoreline. As you climb out of the kayak and pull it onto a strip of sandy beach, You notice a thin plume of gray smoke rising in the dusky sky. The light is fading, So have a quick look around since you'll be making camp here tonight. Do you see the spot just ahead, Where the beach meets that low line of pines? There's a path. Grab your backpack out of the kayak and follow that trail for a bit. Darkness has descended quickly, But just a short distance ahead you see the bright glow of a large campfire. There's a sweet, Smoky scent in the air, And as you move a little closer, You hear the pop and crack of burning wood, And watch sporadic explosions of sparks fly into the night sky. Seated on the ground next to this lively fire is a person, And you're suddenly filled with the joyful knowledge that this is one of your guardian spirits. You had no idea this is who you'd be encountering on this trip, But here you are, Standing just a few yards from a soul who has been divinely entrusted to protect and guide as you make your way through this life. The fire has illuminated their profile. Take a look at the person who has been patiently waiting for you. Is it someone who was once in your life? If you don't recognize them, What are their most distinguishing features? As you approach the campfire, Your guardian spirit lifts their head and turns their smiling gaze upon you. As surely as if you had sunk into a hot tub on a bitter cold day, Your whole being is bathed in the warmth and joy of unconditional love. Your guardian's eyes speak volumes about how deeply you are loved, And there are no words for the immense peace and happiness this brings. Go ahead and bask in this heavenly connection for a bit. Your guardian pads the ground, Signaling you to drop your pack and have a seat. Gently, They stir the embers to revive the fire and quietly ask about your emotional distress. Although you sense they may already know the answer, It feels good to have your unhappiness acknowledged. Take some time to share the story of your heartache and ask your most pressing questions. The warmth of the fire and proximity to so much love radiate through your whole being. The tight knot of misery you've been carrying begins to loosen. Now, Listen as your guardian spirit imparts their wisdom about your situation. Thoughts and ideas have been shared, But true healing, Like true love, Can't always be rationally explained. Sometimes, A bit of divine intervention is a necessary ingredient. Your guardian spirit places their open palm on your back, Directly next to your left shoulder blade. An intense energy surges toward your heart, Then swirls through your entire body. Feel it travel to each limb and organ, Its healing magic sweeping through every cell. Although you can't describe exactly what's different, You feel a noticeable shift both physically and emotionally. As this perception unfolds, Your guardian spirit faces you with cupped hands and tells you that they too hold your grief, So that it will never be yours alone to carry. You hadn't completely embodied this understanding before this experience. Now you know that when dark feelings arise, Instead of running away from them, You can acknowledge their existence and let them move through you. Love is a potent healing agent and will help you mend if you stay open to receiving it in whatever form it takes. This encounter has left you deeply drowsy. Your guardian spirit has found a light blanket to drape over you. Your body is relaxed and heavy. Under the careful watch of twinkling stars and a shining moon, Protected by a soul with a divine assignment of ensuring your happiness, Release any remaining vestiges of sadness and rest. Your body is relaxed and heavy. Your body is relaxed and heavy. Your body is relaxed and heavy. Your body is relaxed and heavy. It's almost time to return. You're waking to a new day, Alone by the barely glowing embers. There's no outward indication that something magical has happened, But inside, You feel lighter and ready to paddle onward. When you're ready, Begin moving your arms and legs. You may want to cover your eyes with your hands and slowly let your vision adjust to the present time. We hope you benefit from this healing adventure and find yourself with a renewed sense of strength and the ability to more easily move forward in your life.

As I met my guide I realized I have so many forms of him around me and it made sense why I had a passion for them. He provided comfort as I felt heaviness being lifted. He has always been there but he is more concrete now. I will keep an open heart and mind as I continue my journey. 🙏🏻
