So begin to relax your mind and begin to relax your body.
As this place is a safe place where you can gently go to sleep and you can enjoy this.
Take a long, deep breath in and then a long breath out.
Make sure you take a slow,
deep breath in and let it breathe out as you move your stomach muscles in to breathe in
and relax them to breathe out by taking long breaths out you trigger your nervous system to relax
and in turn it will help you relax continue to take a few more breaths at your own pace
and as you relax into your breath, you feel lighter and more grounded in your entire being.

and as you breathe from the top of your head down to the bottom of your feet feel all your muscles relaxing
and detensing any tension or stiffness you have just
Let go. Relax your brow. Your eyes, your lids, your jaw. Make sure any tension is gone as just the muscles support your body without any excess tension in them.
Acknowledge any random thoughts that come into your mind or any sounds you might hear.
here, let them go as you know that having these thoughts is just a precursor to relaxation
and bring your attention back to your breath as you feel yourself breathing in and out.
Feel yourself melting into relaxation. Feel yourself going deeper into relaxation.
Feel yourself drifting into relaxation.

As soon as they come to you, they can drift off as you come back to your breath.
Make an intention to open your heart and you look through your mind's eye.
and you see a door in front of your heart and you open it.
What do you see?
What colour is it?
Is there light?
Radiating from it?
How do you feel?
Do you feel that it is radiating,
lightheartedness and happiness?
You may feel that you have anxieties and stress.
Take a closer look.
If you feel something,
or see something, just acknowledge them and let them be.
We are all emotional creatures and we tend to keep a lot of worries.
And as what we say, these worries are hidden in our heart.
Today, you have the opportunity to release all of your worries and stress
that no longer serve you to your highest.
good. A person, a situation or an experience has been weighing you down or you simply can't get your
head around a matter today to let it go or let them go.
A moment now to think of what do you want to let go. It can be anything. It's an uncomfortable
situation that worries you or it could be the stress that arises from your work.
Perhaps you have tension in your relationships or friendships.
You have self-imposed negative beliefs that stifle your growth.
It can be anything.
It can be anything that you know does not serve your highest good anymore.
Look at your heart, begin picking at what you want to let go.
As you pick out these bits of worries and stress with your hands,
it's like picking out a gooey unpleasant substance that is stuck in your heart.
Some may be easy to remove and some may need more effort because they've been there for a while.
Take your time.
There is no need to rush.
Think of your reasons for wanting to release them from your life.
Maybe it has affected your well-being or has caused you pain or simply.
It's just the time to let go because it no longer fits into the life you wish to live.
Now life you want to live in the future.
There is no right or wrong reason as long as your intention
is to bring balance and self-love to yourself
and make sure that you are going to live a better and happier life
as you continue to pick out the worries and stress
do you notice if there are easy
easy ones to remove from your heart
or do you need efforts to pull them out
do you see anything as you do that
if so
acknowledge these thoughts
and let them be, be aware of any feelings
you have towards what you are letting go,
acknowledge any hurt feelings
that are attached to them,
acknowledge any lingering tensions
that you don't even know existed before,
but importantly,
acknowledge your willingness to let them go.
You may
have only one situation to release them.
We have also several matters to let go off.
Just take time to pick them out.
There is no judgment.
There is no right or wrong.
You are free to let go of anything
that no longer serves you.
Take your time.
There is no need to rush.
As you continue to pick out these worries from your heart,
you begin to feel a great sense of relief.
You no longer want to carry them with you.
It's time to let them go
because you are ready
for a healthier and happier life.
Gather up all those worries
and stresses in your hands
and visualize a pillar of pure white light in front of it.
This pure light connects
from above and all the way down, part of earth. It's a grand looking pillar of light.
The light is so soft and tall to the eye. It feels warm and healing, like it can rejuvenate you
just by standing next to it. Look at the bunch of worries that you have gathered up in
your hands at the count of three.
I want you to toss them all into the pillar of light so that you can release them forever.
On the count of three, one, two, three.
Toss all of your worries, burdens and stress into the pillar of light now.
They are no longer a part of you.
You are no longer a part of then.
Make an intention to let go of all of these burdens.
Now, as you toss them out, you see them all,
being pulled up to a pillar of light,
till the ether so high you longer see them.
As this happens, I want you to repeat these statements after,
to me. Repeat them in your heart. I release all these worries and stress that no longer serve my
highest good. Thankful with the life lessons they have brought me. I forgive myself for holding
onto them. I'm willing to let go. End your heartfelt sincerity to let go and as you do so
you will see and sense healing white light all around you, assisting you in the process of letting go
and healing you at the same time.
Visualize your heart beaming with bright light, symbolizing its state of purity and divine love.
Take deep breaths if you're experiencing more intense.
