So let your eyes grow heavy, And your body sink into your bed, As you feel its weight upon your soft sheets. Relax, And feel calmness slowly cover you like a blanket, Slowing down your body, Slowing down your breathing, Slowing down your mind. PAUSE… Maybe you feel a heaviness on your chest, As you think about what’s weighing on your heart. You feel guilty, Perhaps ashamed or disappointed.  It’s my fault, You hear the voices say, As the shoulds begin penetrating your mind, Like raindrops on the roof,  Coming down drop by drop,  Burning your heart with their judgements.  PAUSE… Breathe in deeply, And let the air cleanse you, Lighten you, Forgive you. And breathe out the guilt, Releasing the heaviness and the pain. Breathe in forgiveness, And release the guilt.  PAUSE… You’re a beautiful being of love, And only this moment exists. You can’t change the past, But you can gather its lessons in your arms, And continue walking. So release the guilt, beautiful, And invite in forgiveness. PAUSE… Forgive yourself for the mistakes, Forgive yourself for the imperfections, Forgive yourself for the consequences of your actions. Feel the warmth of forgiveness release you from the chains of guilt. LONG PAUSE… Nothing you’ve done can take away who you are, You are love. And you are here to express love.  So release the pain and suffering of guilt, As you absorb the lessons to be learned, And continue onto the path before you, Lighter,  And wiser. PAUSE… Sleep, my love, As you rest in the arms of love, And let her guide you through the night, Free of guilt, Free of ego, And full of grace.

Just a few clicks makes it easy for you to listen on your favorite podcast player.  Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium With a deep, open breath, snuggle up in your bed, and untether the thoughts  looming tight in your head. LONG PAUSE Feel the soft sheets  as they kiss your skin. You sink into their coolness,  and pull your blanket up again. LONG PAUSE Breathe once more,  deep, long, and slow, and as you exhale, let any last thoughts go. PAUSE Now imagine a gondola  on a small waterway. It’s Venice, you see, bright and beautiful at midday. PAUSE You cast a quick smile to the gondolier in the back, wearing the traditional shirt of white and black. PAUSE The gondolier tips his hat as you continue to cruise. You marvel at the narrow waterways you are passing through. PAUSE There are houses and businesses right up to the water’s edge, all lovely, bright colors– their beauty’s unmatched. PAUSE And the gondola lets you off at St. Mark’s Square where a flurry of pigeons take to the air. PAUSE The sun’s warmth  holds your face in its hands, as you stand before a palace ornate and grand.  PAUSE And you marvel at the artistry, intricate designs and lattice, that adorn the outside  of this magnificent palace.  PAUSE You’re amazed by the wonders  the palace holds within. There’s art and a gold ceiling that makes your head spin. PAUSE The art and history take your breath away. You wonder what it would have been like to live back in the day. PAUSE And as you leave the palace and return to the square, you find a bench to rest and take in the sights while you’re there. PAUSE A little girl with gelato comes and offers it to you. You say, “Grazie,” which is “thanks” as she spills some on her shoe. PAUSE She doesn’t seem to mind, as she dances in the sun. The gelato may be melting but you both are having fun. PAUSE And her laugh is contagious, as you giggle at her dance. You feel the magic of Venice coming over you at last. PAUSE The little girl runs off  and grabs the hand of her mother. She smiles and waves at you, then dances off with her brother. PAUSE They pass the bell tower, standing proud and tall, before disappearing  behind a wall. PAUSE And you notice that the sun  is starting to droop. Night is falling soon, so it’s time to regroup. PAUSE So, you find another gondola and comfortably settle in, as it heads toward your home, you reminisce where you’ve been. PAUSE Then, you pause one more minute to take in all of Venice. You hear opera floating in the air and a magic voice wraps you in it. PAUSE And the opera fades to quiet, and the laughter drops off, too. It’s you and gondolier paddling through and through. PAUSE  And as you paddle toward the stars You’re grateful you had the chance to see Venice at its best, It’s your Italian romance. PAUSE And the gondola dissolves, as the night runs deep, and you find yourself in bed again, at peace, and ready for sleep.

Breathe deeply again, becoming aware of your surroundings, aware of the present. LONG PAUSE Breathe in again, and as you do, let your body release its tension and let the soft folds of the bed blend with you. LONG PAUSE As you breathe in again, imagine a house on the  edge of the woods, a house bathed in winter snow, with smoke dancing out of a chimney. PAUSE Now, imagine yourself  standing in front of the house at nighttime, dressed in a warm clothes that hug you and keep you comfortable. PAUSE And as you stand outside, in the beautiful winter air, you notice the full moon above, a brilliant, shining orb that  washes its silvery light over  the house, the snow, the woods, and you. PAUSE And in the distance, you hear a noise, softly at first, but then it grows stronger, Whooo, Whooo. Whooo, Whooo. An owl calls to you from the woods. PAUSE Now, imagine yourself  taking a step in the snow. It crunches beneath your foot, but gently gives way to you. So, you take another step and another.

Whooo. Whooo. PAUSE For a moment,  you look at the woods, deep into her heart, a heart teeming  with life and mystery.

Just a few clicks makes it easy for you to listen on your favorite podcast player.  Become a PREMIUM member today by going to --> https://WomensMeditationNetwork.com/premium Inhale a long, slow breath that opens you from the center, a breath that spreads through you like the branches of a tree.  LONG PAUSE Now, draw in another breath, and trace its path  as it opens and relaxes any tension in your body. LONG PAUSE Imagine yourself  walking on a city sidewalk  in the cool of the evening, in a city full of life. PAUSE And, as you walk along the sidewalk, you notice lights all around you, lights full of colors, pulsing in the night air. PAUSE And along your walk, you pass people sitting at an outdoor cafe, laughing, eating, and  sipping cappuccino. PAUSE You give the people a smile and a gesture of “hello.” And the people smile in return and nod to you as you pass by. PAUSE Now, imagine  something in the sky that catches your attention– lights and colors from fireworks burst across the sky. PAUSE You stop for a moment and take in the magic  of the beautiful flowery shapes that open then cascade from the sky. PAUSE You look around  at the people who “Oooh” and “Awww” in pure joy as each firework blossoms, one right after the other. PAUSE Then you continue along your walk, until you reach a bookstore, open and alive with  people of the night. PAUSE You enter the bookstore and listen as a young couple reads poetry to each other, eyes smiling with love. PAUSE Your eye catches an older man, with a beard and black glasses, cozied up in a big, fluffy chair, turning the pages of a philosophy book. PAUSE And as you walk deeper into the store, you notice the shelves and shelves of books– books of all colors, shapes, and sizes. PAUSE While looking at the books, you pass a row where one book stands out, where one book calls to you. PAUSE You go to the book and remove it from the shelf. The book feels comfortable, familiar, so you open it. PAUSE As you look at the page, words pop out. They twist and turn until they form  a message of encouragement just for you. What do those words say? PAUSE You pull the book to your heart and listen, as your mind whispers,  the message again and again, until the message is nestled into your heart and mind. PAUSE And then, after a moment, you close the book  and quietly thank it for the message, as you gently place it on the shelf. PAUSE Then you leave the bookstore and begin walking again.  The cool air kisses your cheeks and you draw a sweater in tight. PAUSE You walk to another cafe where people laugh, eat, and sip cappuccino. And you order something  to warm you inside, something you swirl, as the steam climbs from the cup. PAUSE While seated at the cafe, you pull out a pen and jot the encouraging words on a napkin. Then tuck the napkin  in a pocket. PAUSE You sip your warm drink and put your hand on the napkin. And as the warmth  from your drink spreads through you, so do the words on the napkin. They become part of you. PAUSE You draw in a deep breath, take one more sip of your drink, and then walk away in the night, knowing the words from the book are now your words of truth.
