So Let’s Begin…
THE SACRED BEACH SLEEP MEDITATION SCRIPT
Find that space,
that perfect space
where you can just be.
And settle in.
LONG PAUSE
And now breathe.
Breathe so you body fills that space,
and you feel
safe, comfortable and happy
LONG PAUSE
Pause, and take a few minutes
to really bask in
and enjoy
the wonderful serenity
all around you.
PAUSE
So turn your attention
to that sacredness,
and imagine comfortably
sitting on the beach.
PAUSE
The temperature is perfect,
not too hot or too cold.
And a light breeze
gently strokes your face.
PAUSE
And, as you sit on the beach,
you are aware of yourself
and your connection
to this all that is around you.
PAUSE
You close your eyes,
and mindfully attend
to the sounds of
your sacred space on the beach.
PAUSE
As your focus grows,
the sounds of life
in the water
and on the sandy shore
come into your awareness.
PAUSE
While breathing slowly, deeply,
you hear the call of a lone seagull,
and you imagine the seagull
climbing the sky,
free, limitless.
PAUSE
Your thoughts follow the seagull,
soaring without boundaries
into the billowy clouds,
and then diving back down
to the water.
PAUSE
And as your mind traces
the bird’s flight,
feelings of freedom
and openness
flow through you.
PAUSE
After a moment,
a splash in the water
slides into your awareness.
And you envision
a beautiful manta ray
lifting its wings above the water,
high into the sky,
before falling back into
the waves’ embrace.
PAUSE
You continue listening
with the sun kissing your cheeks,
and relaxation swimming
in you.
PAUSE
After a moment,
the sound of
dozens of tiny splashes
catch your attention.
You know
that silver bait fish
are being chased
by something else.
PAUSE
Moments later,
a child’s voice rings out,
“Look at the dolphins.”
In your mind’s eye,
you see a school of
dray bottlenose dolphins
looping through the water
in search of bait fish.
PAUSE
The quiet settles in again,
and you listen as the seabreeze
whistles and sings
through the air.
PAUSE
Moments later,
your attention moves
to the waves,
gently dropping
before you,
and the tide
tickling your toes.
PAUSE
Your awareness illuminates
the rhythm of the tide.
A wave gently laps onto the shore,
followed by the bubbling
of the foam as the tide
sinks back into the water.
PAUSE
Another breeze rolls by.
This time,
it kicks up sand,
followed by a long rumbling.
A summer storm approaches.
PAUSE
You take a deep breath,
and bring your awareness
back to you.
Then you fold your hands in gratitude
for the sacred sounds,
and the sacred time
in this sacred place.
NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
