So Let’s Begin…
THE WATERFALL: A GUIDED VISUALIZATION SLEEP MEDITATION SCRIPT
Take a deep, cleansing breath,
one that fills your lungs
and releases all the tension
from your body as you exhale.
LONG PAUSE
Now clear your mind of all thoughts
that take you away from
the present moment.
If they appear,
just watch them dissolve.
LONG PAUSE
And draw in one more deep breath
and let it go,
centering on
your third eye,
the space between your eyes.
LONG PAUSE
As you breathe,
let your third eye open
and transport you
to a new realm,
a realm of dreams and imagination.
PAUSE
And as you travel to this realm
you are surrounded by
a cool, calming mist
on either side of you.
PAUSE
After a few moments,
the mist begins to move away,
and streaks of sunlight
pierce the air,
making their presence known.
PAUSE
The sunlight illuminates your surroundings,
and you find
you’re standing on a rock,
safe and secure,
near a cascading masterpiece–
a waterfall.
PAUSE
A symphony of water tumbles
from high above
into a blue-green pool below,
PAUSE
Mist and foam dance together
amid the tiny rainbows
that blink in and out
with the sun’s light,
all while turquoise bubbles pop.
PAUSE
As you look around, you notice
an eagle perched on a branch nearby,
and as the eagle spreads his wings,
two beautiful, fluffy wings
genty form on you.
PAUSE
You take a moment
and just think about
your silky plumages
flapping in the breeze,
and, like magic, they do.
PAUSE
You decide to test the wings,
jumping up just a little
off the rock,
and feeling the
air catch in your flapping wings.
PAUSE
And with each little jump,
you feel a
swell of confidence,
of inner power
gather within you.
PAUSE
You rise easily above the rocks,
again and again,
high enough
to grab a branch
from a tree.
.
PAUSE
As you alight
on the rock again,
you draw in a deep breath,
lift your head to the sky
and leap off the rock.
PAUSE
The wings carry you
effortlessly,
suspending you before
the majestic waterfall.
PAUSE
Splashes of water
kiss the bottoms
of your feet,
as you glide from
one side of the falls
to the other.
PAUSE
Then you close your eyes
and ask your wings
to carry you behind the waterfall
so you can know its secrets.
PAUSE
Your magic wings
obey your wishes
and lift you
past the pool of water
and in between
the fall and a rock formation.
PAUSE
From behind the waterfall,
you run your hands
over the gray-black rocks
that are cool and smooth
to the touch.
PAUSE
You listen to
the rush of the water,
a curtain of strength
cascading before you.
PAUSE
The wings draw you closer
to the waterfall’s embrace,
close enough
that you prepare to
feel its magic wrap around you.
PAUSE
As you move into the water,
you feel completely comfortable
as you absorb
the strength embedded in every droplet of water
strength that both relaxes
and rebirths you.
PAUSE
And as you emerge
from the other side,
you turn to face
the waterfall once more.
PAUSE
You hover above
the turquoise pool,
catching a glimpse of your face
reflecting in the water.
PAUSE
At that moment,
you feel the waterfall’s strength within,
and know
that, like the waterfall,
you, too, are
a masterpiece.
PAUSE
After a few moments,
your wings
deliver you back
to your bed,
and fold up like fans
before magically disappearing.
PAUSE
You breathe
and then melt into
your bed,
basking in
tranquility and strength
that you are a vessel for–
now and forever.
