Inhale slowly, enjoying this moment, while watching the bubbles form, then dissipate into the water. You feel completely relaxed, yet totally invigorated, filled with the energy of the Earth, Wind, and Water.įocus on your out-breath, as each molecule of air leaves your body and disappears into the mist, drawing out all the negative energy in your body. Inhale slowly, and feel the energy of the waterfall transferred into your body. When the bubbles pop, the air inside is released, charged with the energy of the water that has traveled great distances to the waterfall. The bubbles merge together to create a foam that floats, then dissipates, as it approaches the shore, carried by the current. You see bubbles form, some large, some small, some almost indistinct. Shift your gaze slowly to where the water falls into the pool at the base of the waterfall. The energy of the waterfall sends small waves toward shore and you watch the waves come forward, then recede, in an endless pattern that is symmetric, rhythmic, and calming. You sit down gracefully on a large rock directly facing the waterfall and gaze at the water’s edge. The mist from the waterfall settles on your skin, cooling your body, relaxing every muscle, invigorating all of your senses. You have emerged from the forest and are now facing a waterfall.īreathe in slowly, savoring the sparkling freshness of the air here in front of the waterfall. When you walk around a huge tree, the light suddenly becomes brighter. You can feel a deep connection with all the forms of life in the forest.Īs you walk, floating above the forest floor, you sense the quality of the air changing, an electrifying feeling as if the air were charged with energy. You walk gracefully toward the sound of the water, taking the time to truly see and feel your surroundings. When the last bit of air is released, inhale naturally, gently, and slowly.įeel your lungs fill with air, slightly scented with the aroma of incense, which purifies your mind and body, releasing your attachment to your ego-self, soothing your inner spirit, freeing you to wander freely during this meditation.įocus on the out-breath as you exhale slowly, and your worries simply slip away into the air, as if they never existed.Īs you breathe slowly with eyes closed, you hear the sound of rushing water. Now slowly exhale, focusing on the out-breath as the stress in your body is released into the air, floating away from you.
Inhale naturally, gently, slowly, until your lungs are completely filled with air. Keep exhaling softly until the last bit of air is released, taking away all the tension in your neck, back, and shoulders. Relax the muscles of your face to form a gentle smile, as if you were greeting a child for the first time.Ĭlose your eyes gently…and breathe in deeply.įocus on the out-breath as you exhale slowly. Form a circle with both thumbs with tips almost but not quite touching. Sit up with back naturally straight, not too tense, not too loose. Loosen your clothing and take off your shoes if you like.
