So Let’s Begin…
SIMPLICITY IN THE COUNTRY MEDITATION SCRIPT
Take a deep breath,
and let the cool air of morning
fill you.
PAUSE
Breathe in and out,
until your breath
forms a peaceful rhythm
and you feel that peace, too.
PAUSE
Now, imagine if you can,
walking along a country road,
a simple dirt road,
banked by plush, green grass.
PAUSE
As you breathe,
you notice the freshness
of the air
and hints of flowers,
trees and earth,
in each breath.
PAUSE
On one side of you
are brown and white and black cows,
grazing nonchalantly
on the river of grass,
each in its own world.
PAUSE
On the other side,
you notice
several young goats,
prancing about and bleating
like children on a playground.
PAUSE
As you walk,
a red barn
and bright silver silo
catch your eye.
Not far from the barn
is a white house
with a long porch
that wraps around
the house.
A rocking chair
moves ever-so-slightly
in the breeze.
PAUSE
A farmer in overalls
pushes open the door
from the house
and emerges.
She waves to you,
and you return
the wave with a smile.
PAUSE
As you continue
on your walk,
imagine coming to a point
where the dirt road ends.
A beautiful meadow
teeming with colorful wildflowers
unfolds before you.
PAUSE
You draw in another
long, deep breath
and gaze at
the beauty before you.
A feeling of immense gratitude
rises within you,
and you realize
how easy it is
to miss the simple beauty of life.
You carry the gratitude
and beauty with you
through your day.
NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
