Visualize
yourself walking in an enchanted forest … filled with beautiful trees of all
different species and sizes, song birds of all kinds and forest creatures big
and small with the kindest intent.
You are
walking along a winding forest path of pine needles and forest leaves and other
natural elements trampled down by wear of other pilgrims that have walked the
same path. Sunlight filters through the
tallest trees in an enchanting and mystical display.
You walk
through a beautiful meadow filled with gorgeous and fragrant flowers, some of
which have never been seen before on this earthy plane … all your senses are
nourished from this mystical walk.
You can see
that on the other side of the meadow is a small mountain. As you come to the other side of the meadow,
you notice, as you look up this majestic mountain, that there is a charming
water well … you know, the kind that you’ve seen many times that folks used to
use to get their water from. But, you
sense that this is a very special well … a sacred well.
You are
intrigued and quickly walk up the mountain path to this well. You hear a mysterious voice tell you to
imagine your burdens, any of your problems and worries, and people in your
life, even though you love them dearly, and throw them down this sacred well. You remember that you are not throwing the
person down the well … but the worry and burdens that people often bring to our
lives, including ourselves.
As you
dispose of your problems and burdens one by one, you slowly feel a lightness of
your spirit and relief to you soul. Once
you are all done you feel so good and connected to the Divine within you, you
feel you must sit a while and absorb all that you have experienced. Surrender to this wonderful feeling and express
gratitude to the Divine Source who has given you this gift.
After a bit,
you walk back down the mountain path, through the beautiful meadow and once
again are on the forest path. Walking
through the forest back to “yourself” you feel a like a new person, like the
person who you really are and are refreshed and renewed.
I hope this guided meditation helps you feel
refreshed and renewed and helps you get
rid of those worries that plagues so many of us. This is my very own meditation, but feel free
to share this with anyone. After all, we
help ourselves when we help each other … and it also makes us feel good about
ourselves.
After opening my auto insurance bill and seeing that it more than doubled I knew that I had to try this guided meditation tonight. When I called the insurance company, although the gal was very nice, she had no clue why it more than doubled in price ... she said it could because they did a another credit check in June. What my credit has to do with auto insurance I'll never know. Sounds like another way to fleece poor people and people in general. Be that as it may, I don't have bad credit and wouldn't call the so-called credit check company because I know when you do, every time anybody checks, it goes down as a negative on your credit report. This is just crazy stuff and a way to rob and overcharge people.
Be that as it may, I don't see how it would double and, if so, it is just another nail in the coffin for our little household. I don't have a clue how I would pay for this, but will check on line for a better price. We need a car, nothing is nearby and even with than the most we use our 12 year old car is less than 3,000 miles per year ... no kidding, it's that little. This is when it is so hard for me to practice unconditional love towards everyone. And thinking positive is a stretch also when things are getting so dire .. but, I will try not to cry and to be angry with the behaviors not the people. Right now it's so very hard. My daughter is so very sick for the past six months, it's seems we are at the end of our rope.
