The Rainbow Of Rest

Hi it's me again with another meditation. This meditation was adapted from the book entitled. Hypnobirthing by Marie This meditation can be done alont or with a partner which I sometimes refer to as your "healing assistant". The more you do this meditation, the easier t will become for you to respond to your healing assistant's voice. This will strengthen the bond between the both of you. (Especially if you're preparing to have an operation or other medical procedure).

Intstructions:

A. Find a quiet place where the both of you won't be distracted or disturbed. Make sure that bth of you are comfortable and the lighting is dim. (You might also find it helpful to have soft music playing in the background). Also the person who's having the operation/procedure should be either sitting in a chair, with his/her head resting on the back of it. Alternately the person can be lying on a bed couch, or on the floor supported by pillows, cushions, or even a beanbag chair.

B. Next, bring yourself into a deeply relaxed state. The kind that you've been practicing. Inhale relaxation and allow it to flow into your body using the relaxation breathing technique.

C. Once you're deeply relaxed, picture yourself lying on a bed of cherry red mist. This mist is 11/2 feet high. Visualize the mist grounding you to earth and connecting you with nature. Picture it entering your feet and legs. Stay with this image until you feel totally relaxed and limp, calm and centered.

D. Next, visualize yourself lying on bed of orange colored mist. Feel it entering your pelvic area and lower belly. Feel how this charges your 2nd energy center which has to do with creativity, finances, and relationships. Do the same thing that you did with the cherry colored mist. In addition, as you do so, you'll find yourself becoming more and more relaxed.

E. Now you see yourself resting on a light yellow mist. Notice how it enters your solor plexus and upper belly.This energy center has to do with your will and emotions. Do the same thing that you did with the other 3 colors and as you do, notice how much more relaxed you're becoming.

F. Now you see yourself resting on a light green mist. This mist enters your heart giving you feelings of love and compassion. As you lie on this mist, sense yourself drifting into a deeper state of relaxation. Again, continue with this until you feel complete with i.

G. After that, picture yourself resting on a light blue mist. The mist enters your throat center giving you clarity of expression and allowing you to communicate. Continue with this until you feel that you're done with it. Notice how much more relaxed you're becoming.

H. Now picture yourself resting on a bed of indigo mist. This is the color of night and allows us to rest. As you do so notice how much more relaxed you're becoming. Stay with this as long as you'd like.

I. Now picture yourself resting on a violet colored mist. Notice how it enters your 3rd eye point just between your eyebrows. Which helps us with discernment, instincts, intuition, knowledge, and wisdom. Continue to stay with this as long as you'd like. And as you do, notice how much more relaxed you're becoming.

J. Lastly, picture yourself lying on a bed of silver, gold, and white mists. These connect us with God's presence and are the colors of spiritualty. Notice how deeply relaxed you feel at this stage.

K. When you feel ready take 1-2 more deep cleansing breaths, count slowly to 5, stretch yourself out a bit and slowly open your eyes. Continue to take the feelings of calm and relaxation with you as you go on with the rest of your day or evening.

I hope that you've enjoyed the meditation as much as I've enjoyed brining it to you. I'll be back in a couple of days with the introduction to the next set of meditations. Until then ~Nameste~
