Begin
the relaxation process, give
yourself permission to relax, affirming to yourself that this is your time, your
space; in this moment it is the right thing to do, to release, to let go, to re-lax!
You
can feel a beautiful flow of peace, starting at the top of your head, letting
the muscles of your scalp relax, then the forehead, the cheeks, the muscles around
the jaw and the neck,
all relaxing,
feeling the wonderful warm feeling
of relaxation spreading down through your body, from your shoulders down through
the arms and hands, down through the trunk, the thighs, the legs, and finally
the feet...
You
can feel the restful warmth of physical relaxation all through your body now,
from the top of your head, to the very tips of your toes.
Sense
the flow of spiritual peace entering into your mind, giving you a sense of serenity,
a sense of trust, and a beautiful sense of oneness with all that is, within and
without.

Healers are available at the back of the room –

(Re-start
guided meditation)
Come
along now to the edge of the forest, pause and ask permission to enter, and then
take your first steps along the path.
Take
a moment to breathe in the aroma of the earth's richness beneath your feet.
Slowly,
take in long deep breaths of the refreshing tranquillity you have longed for.
As
you listen to the music, take a few moments now to fill your lungs with the vitality
of the moist scents of pine and cedar and visualize the beauty all around you.
As
you begin to relax even more, acknowledge the inner peace you experience as you
nourish your body with the fresh, clean air.
Now
look around you. Enjoy the canopy of protection above you formed by the towering
trees ... shielding you and offering strength as you begin to settle into this
temple of beauty built by nature for all its creatures to enjoy.
Feel
the security of being alone yet knowing that there is a warmth of love all around
you.
Observe
the scurrying of birds in dry leaves searching for food, hear the rustle of small
animals and insects, accepting your presence. Be thankful for this moment in time
and enjoy the happiness of birds fluttering above as though they were angels of
protection hovering over you.
Observe
the growth in plants and vines and shrubs; see that growing process as it happens.
Know that your inner growth develops as surely and steadily, each depending on
nourishment from the earth's energy. Notice the strength that seeps into your
veins as you marvel at the power in this forest and you begin to sense that this
is where you belong.
As
you continue to look about, take time to absorb the spirit of the forest and begin
to listen.
Hear
the sounds of nature's woodland, and let your body acknowledge the rhythm of movement
that surrounds you ... allow it to become a part of your heartbeat. As you feel
the blood pumping through your body, you sense the energy that rushes through
you, giving force to your very being. Know that the higher vibration which you
feel is your connection to spirit.
Lift
your face to the dew drops falling from lush greenness and accept this healing
power. Feel peace in the bird's songs and happiness in your heart as their music
resounds magically through the woods.
With
your hand touch the dampness of the leaves, and feel the textures of the rough
barks.
Rest
for a moment on the cool rock that appears just before you and take in its energy
as you observe the happiness of clean water winding its way in the little creek
near your feet.
Sit
here for a moment and absorb the beauty of this place and this time in your life.

sense of commitment to your path of spiritual enlightenment, and a feeling of
being refreshed physically, mentally and emotionally, ready to face the coming

Opening your eyes now, feeling fine and in perfect health, much better than before.
