PAUSE Breathe in some more, letting any distracting thoughts gently drifting away, leaving you relaxed and peaceful. PAUSE Now, imagine seeing a beautiful sea turtle with a shell of brown, olive green, and black. PAUSE And, as you observe the turtle, you notice its gentle, dark eyes that scan the water. PAUSE You notice the effortless motion of the turtle’s flippers that glide it through the water. PAUSE You notice its rough, wizened face that suggests decades of life and wisdom. PAUSE As you move along with the turtle, you see that it rises to the surface for a few moments. It pokes its head out and then floats, letting the warm sun gently bathe its body. PAUSE After a while, the turtle dives back into the water. But the descent is slow and graceful. There is no rush. Just a peaceful progression to what is next. PAUSE As the turtle reaches the bottom, it nibbles on some sea grass, savoring every bite. Again, there is no rush. PAUSE Now, bring yourself back to the present moment. And, as you do, ask yourself what have you learned from the sea turtle. Can you find areas in your life where you can slow down? PAUSE Breathe. and create an intention to slow down the pace of your life, to give yourself less stress, and to let every moment matter. “I will slow down and savor the moment.” Just like the sea turtle. Practice, and it will be yours. now and always.

PAUSE The first thing you observe is how they glide and flow in the water. Their bodies effortlessly cut through the sea and under waves. Sometimes, they even jump over the waves. PAUSE As they dance in the waves, you feel a sense of joy rising in you– a sense of playfulness that you may not always allow to come to the surface. In this moment, that sense of playfulness is alive. PAUSE The next thing you notice about these whimsical spirits is their connectedness to each other. They click and chirp, sending coded messages to each other. PAUSE As you move close to each dolphin, their eyes twinkle with intelligence. They may twirl and spin and splash, but they are also smart and aware. PAUSE After a while, the dolphins swim to a school of fish. the playing and splashing stop, they become focused on their food, all working together. PAUSE Once the dolphins are fed, they return to their joyful spirits, dancing in the waves. PAUSE Now, breathe, and return to the here and now. Does your life need more play? More time to be joyful like the dolphins? PAUSE Breathe. and create an intention to add more playfulness to your life. “I will take time to play and find the joy in life.” Hold this intention close, and whenever life gets too serious, say it aloud, and tap into your inner dolphin.

PAUSE And, as you breathe, allow your mind to clear and open, as you prepare for meditation. PAUSE Now, breathe again, and imagine, if you can, opening the door to a room with a round table.

You quietly slide into the chair. PAUSE As you sit down, you realize that the three men are in a discussion about freedom. When they see you’re seated, they smile, nod, and turn their attention to you. PAUSE Martin Luther King speaks first, “I had a dream of peace and love for all,” he says. Now, it is your turn to smile and nod at Dr. King. PAUSE Then, Mahatma Gandhi speaks, “Violence is never the answer. Violence just begets violence.” Again, you nod and smile. PAUSE Then Nelson Mandela clears his throat and says, “Hatred has no place in this world.” You nod in agreement. PAUSE Pause for a moment, and think about why you’ve been brought before these three men. “You all fought bravely for freedom.” PAUSE The three men nod, And then say, “But freedom is not free. There is a price to pay, whether it’s freedom for the whole world, or in your everyday life. There is a cost.” PAUSE You pause for a moment, sondering if what you heard was true. “Would you all have stopped your fights if you knew the price.” The men all shake their heads no. “And neither should you,” they say. PAUSE Now, slowly come back to the present. and, as you do, think about your life. Are there areas where you want more freedom, but have been afraid to fight for it because of the cost? Really sit with this thought. Reflect on it. PAUSE Now, breathe again, and let the words of Gandhi, King, and Mandela sink into you. Acknowledge that you are being called to create more freedom in your life. To be who you really are. And that men like Gandhi, King, and Mandela wouldn’t have changed their minds just because there was a cost to freedom. The cost only makes your freedom more valuable.

And you’re walking through a neighborhood Known as the Haight. PAUSE There are calls for love, As you reach Golden Gate Park. And in that moment, you realize This scene was the spark. For a moment began That advocated love and peace, They wanted to stop a war, And they wanted to be free. PAUSE So, you watch them as they Protest, blow bubbles, and dance. Some do yoga, Others do TM Like they’re in a trance. PAUSE And you realize you’re at the sight, Of a cultural revolution With thousands of young people Demanding solutions. PAUSE You know it doesn’t matter, If you don’t believe in all they want. You recognize it’s more important To have free thought.

Letting go of the day behind you, And embracing the calm of the night ahead. So relax your body and close your eyes, And let’s begin with setting an intention for deep, nourishing sleep tonight, Releasing any resistance your body or your mind might have. Allow your body to sink a little further into your bed, Adjusting yourself if needed to release any discomfort, And take a deep breath in, filling your body with fresh air all the way down to your toes, And as you exhale, feel yourself releasing the day, and relaxing even deeper. Another deep breath in, And release it all on your exhale, melting further into your bed. Let your breathing settle into a natural, easy rhythm as you follow the slow cadence of your body. Breathe in and expand, Breathe out and release, Expand, Release. Breathe in. Breathe out. PAUSE… Become aware of the softness underneath you, The way your body curves into comfort, The way your bed meets the heaviest parts of you with love, Welcoming your legs, Your hips, Your arms, And your head into deeper relaxation. Breathe… PAUSE… Slowly you feel the soft clouds of your bed curling lightly over your limbs, Embracing you with a soothing coolness. You are safe here, You are whole here, At home with yourself, Ready to surrender to where the clouds of sleep will take you. Feel your face relax, Your shoulders drop, Your back melt, Your legs and arms soften. And allow yourself to relax into the clouds of sleep awaiting you. PAUSE… The dark blue sky surrounds you, Covering you in the deep silence of the night, Quieting any of those thoughts that may be moving around in your mind. Release them into the nighttime sky, Watching them disappear amongst the stars. And float slowly on your sleepy cloud, Feeling your body hum with the warmth of sleep. Sleep, Deep sleep. PAUSE… Let yourself fall further into the mist of the clouds, Inviting the softness to take you to dreamland. Floating, Relaxing, Melting. Deep sleep.

PAUSE Keep breathing. And just bask in the openness, the peaceful, serene openness. PAUSE Now, take a moment, and visualize your home. Gently float in and through each room, looking at all the furniture, knickknacks and other objects. PAUSE And, as you see all that is in your house, Ask yourself, “What is really important here?” There are probably some objects that hold joy for you, or sentimental value. That’s okay. No judgment. But, are there things you could detach from? PAUSE Now, imagine your home fills With all the people you know, And you take a moment To silently scan the room. PAUSE There are people you love. People you like. People you work with. People you just know. Are there people who are toxic to you? Ask yourself, “Can I detach from some of these people?” PAUSE Now, breathe, and bring yourself back to your center. And, as you do, give yourself permission to feel how it would be without those unnecessary objects or people in your life. If you detach from them, would you feel more free? Take a minute to reflect on this. PAUSE Now, breathe. And let yourself form an intention: “When I’m ready, I will detach from what or who is unnecessary in my life.” PAUSE Breathe again.

PAUSE And, as you feel comfortable with your new magical skill, allow yourself to fly out the window and soar with birds in the clouds. PAUSE Now, after a moment, you realize that you have flown halfway around the world to the beautiful country of Japan.

As you walk through the garden, you marvel at the beauty and at the feeling of freedom you have from traveling to somewhere new. PAUSE Raise your arms, and feel the air lifting you above the garden and carrying you somewhere else. As you fly, you see rolling farmlands, Indigo oceans, and rose-colored sunsets.

And you can see cars beginning to line streets, and shop owners opening. And, as you watch, you notice feeling free and new, just like the dawn. Hold onto this feeling.

This time you understand her when she tells you of the sacred nature of the foxglove. “It bows when a spiritual creature passes by it.” Then, the fairy flies away. PAUSE You take a moment and watch the fairy flit from flower to flower, and then look once more at the bowing foxglove. But this time, you bow to the fairy flower, because you will take with you the confirmation of your deep spiritual self. And let it bloom in you always.

Close your eyes, and let your body unwind and your mind let go. PAUSE Breathe. Breathe. Breathe and relax. PAUSE Now, visualize walking in a lovely garden during springtime. And in this garden is a striking purple lilac bush. PAUSE Next to the lilac bush is a gardener who sees you coming. Instinctively, he gets up and cuts some lilac for you. PAUSE After a while, you find a bench, and sit down to admire your lilac. You draw in a breath, breathing in the ethereal smell of the lilac. PAUSE Now, imagine closing your eyes while holding the lilac, and as you do, you feel a sense of protection surrounding you. Lilac is a source of spiritual protection against negative energy. PAUSE You breathe in more of the lilac’s fragrance. And this time, a creative energy surges in you. You feel inspired to act, to create. So, you close your eyes and imagine what to create. Really take a moment and allow yourself to feel creative and inspired. That is another gift of the lilac. PAUSE Your time is the garden is coming to a close. So, you get off the bench and begin walking. And, as you walk, you hear a tiny voice whisper more about the lilac. It is a symbol of innocence and purity. PAUSE Now, with your eyes still closed, bring your consciousness back to the present. And, along with your awareness, bring back the gifts of the lilac. Now is the time to embrace them: Protection from negative energy. Creativity and inspiration. Innocence and purity.

PAUSE The daffodils are aligned in rows, with their yellow trumpets surrounded by a halo of petals and reaching for the sun. PAUSE The sun shines on your face, and a breeze, with just a hint of coolness gently blows by. PAUSE And, while the breeze blows, the daffodils come alive. Like a roomful of line dancers, they sway and bop. They shimmy and bow. They twist and turn. And then still themselves when the musical breeze stops. PAUSE Moments later, the breeze kicks up again, and the daffodils bend to one side, and then the other, as if they’re waving to you, smiling at you, and inviting you to dance. PAUSE You breathe in more of the flower’s fragrance. The breeze blows again. And, this time, you find yourself bending and swaying like the daffodils. You are dancing with the daffodils with a beautiful smile on your face. PAUSE Now, take a moment, and hold onto the happy feeling you get while dancing with the daffodils.

PAUSE… Sometimes we forget, To express what’s swirling inside, And soon we can find ourselves, Needing a cathartic cry. LONG PAUSE… We don’t always know why, We don’t always know when, It feels like out of the blue, Tears release from their pen. PAUSE… Let them fall, Let them flow, Open your heart, And let them go.
