River Of Relaxation

 Hi, this is Glenda Cedarleaf and I invite you now to take in a deep breath, breathing in all the way down to your belly, allowing your mind and body to open, open like a channel for the flowing of this river of relaxation that moves all the way down from the top of your head to the tips of your toes, imagining this river of relaxation soothing every cell, every organ, every inch of your body, bringing your awareness now down to your toes and feet and imagining all the nerves and muscles softening in your toes and feet, and that sense of comfort flows upwards, relaxing the ankles and calves, softening the knees and thighs, allowing the legs to feel like they're just melting into the surface upon which you are resting. And that sense of comfort, that flow of the river of relaxation moves upward now, opening the hips, softening the belly, noticing any area in the belly where you may be holding tension and beginning now to release that tension with each exhale. And as you continue to focus on the breathing, imagining that as you breathe in, that you're breathing in comfort and peace, perhaps imagining that you're breathing for the first time, experiencing the miracle of breathing for the first time. And that river of relaxation continues to flow upwards now, focusing on the shoulders, imagining a heavy burden being lifted off your shoulders so you can feel lighter and freer, more and more relaxed. Breathing now in the throat, opening the throat, releasing the jaw joint, softening the facial muscles across the cheeks and around the temples, and enjoying the soft darkness behind the eyelids, picturing and imagining now floating down this river, feeling your whole body supported, relaxing into the soothing rhythm of the water, floating. In this river of relaxation, becoming deeper and deeper, relaxed, relaxing into the flow, knowing right now there's no place you have to go, nothing that you have to do. This is your time to continue to allow this river to carry you into a deep and restful peace. Calm and relaxed, deeper and deeper, relaxed as the river carries you, calm and at peace. This is your time to continue to allow this river to carry you into a deep and restful You You You
