4 Introduction If you choose to use one or more of these scripts to facilitate a guided meditation experience for others, please preface the journey for them by reminding them that not everyone sees things during a guided meditation. This is very important, because our goal is for them to move a bit closer to their own soul during the journey, not to give them one more reason to believe they ve failed. In the years that I ve been using these guided meditations, many people have shared experiences with me where they weren t able to see anything, but they did hear something. Or they felt the environment with imaginary kinesthetic touch. Or they just had a deep sense of inner knowing about something during the inner journey. All of this is perfectly okay! And once in a while, someone doesn t see, hear, feel or imagine anything. That s perfectly okay as well. Certain inner journeys just don t fit with some people. And sometimes, a guided meditation needs to be listened to and experienced more than once in order to sufficiently relax and open up a person s inner world. Also, at the end of facilitating one of these Inner Journeys, please allow participants ample time to process their experience. You might want to give them several minutes to write in their journals, or you might want to invite small group voluntary sharing. It also might help to make yourself available afterwards for a personal conversation about their experience within the meditation. It s really important that each person have a way to express and integrate the guided meditation experience. For some people, this means verbal sharing with others; for others, this means time to absorb it quietly and in solitude into their own reality. Each of these Magical Inner Journeys was given to me as a direct gift from Spirit. I hope that you enjoy experiencing them and facilitating them as much as I have. Thank you for your interest, and I wish you many blessings on all of your own inner journeys. If you have any questions, please me: annemarie@kaleidosoul.com 4

6 Indra s Net Now let s close our eyes for a few moments and go inside. See in your imagination a large fisherman s net and take hold of one end of it. Slowly watch as the net grows larger and larger. It is expanding past the walls of this room, this building.. it is slowly becoming bigger and wider. It is stretching throughout all of this city now, and beyond this city to the states. It is widening to include the entire continent, it is slowly unfolding to embrace the whole world.. see this net in your mind s eye if you can, encircling the world. stretching out into infinity (pause a little longer here). Breathe in deeply and focus on the feel of the net in your hands right now. Let your breath out slowly continue to feel the net. You are connected to all of the people who live on your street.. you are connected to everyone in your town, your state, your country, even the world.. you are a part of the net that weaves us all together. Notice how this feels, to know that you are so connected.. (pause a little longer here) Now, imagine that each intersection of the net contains a brilliant jewel what kind of jewels do you see? Amethysts? Pearls? Rubies? Diamonds? Are they all the same, or is each one different? It doesn t matter, just picture it how you would like it to be. Look closely at one of the jewels in the net. It is brilliant and lit from within. It is so brilliant that it is reflecting all of the other jewels in its bright face. All of the jewels of this net are like this Notice how each one shimmers and reflects the light from all the other jewels As you are looking at the beautiful jewels that make up this infinite net, I want you to find the jewel that represents a member of your own community. A person or an animal.. notice whoever comes to your mind. Find the jewel that belongs to that being right now. Even if they are no longer with us, they are still a part of this net. They are still connected to you, to us, because the net is what holds us all together in this life, and beyond this life so, find their jewel and notice how it shines Notice how their jewel is different from all the other jewels. What makes it special, what makes it priceless to you?... If you want to say something to that person, do so now in your imagination, and know that they can hear you. Listen for a few moments and see if they respond to you in any way.. It s almost time to come back to this room now. Before you do, take a few moments to focus on your breath.. feel the net in your hands. Feel your feet on the floor, your legs, your back against the chair.. feel your shoulders, your neck, your head.. Take one last look at the infinite, shimmering net, and remember that you are a part of it, that you will always be a part of it, that we are all connected and held by it. Then in your own time, slowly come back to this room and open your eyes. There is no rush. Take your time. All is well. 6

7 Community Circle So. Begin by making yourself really comfortable.you can do this sitting up in a comfortable chair that supports your back, or you might want to lie down and stretch out..listen to your body and respect what it is asking you for right now. Now.. focus on your breathing..feel the air flowing in and out of your nostrils..in and out in and out feel your chest rising and falling with each breath.. rising and falling rising and falling..rising and falling.. Breathing in light and goodness and love. Breathing out any tension or worry or thoughts that are getting in the way of your being present right here right now in this moment with yourself. breathing in light breathing out tension. Breathing in love breathing out distracting thoughts Now you are completely relaxed.. and in your imagination find yourself walking outdoors somewhere beautiful and safe and precious to you..you are walking towards a building that has sweet memories for you. Maybe the house where you grew up. Maybe the house you live in now.. or another building or home or place.. where you felt or feel absolutely safe and loved See yourself walking into this place of love and goodness. There is a large room, a large space, huge really. In this building find yourself in this huge room.. standing in the center of it.. notice the colors on the walls, the floors. What is the furniture like.. notice any sounds in this room.. is there music playing?. Can you hear the beating of your own heart? Notice how you are feeling inside. Soon, as you stand in the center of this room, you notice that other people are entering the room.. slowly they are coming in to join you.. they are forming a large circle all around you. This is your Blessed Community Circle here in this circle are all of the sentient beings who form your true Community. Take a look around you now as they continue to enter and form a very large, wide circle all around you. Who is here with you today?... See their faces. Feel how wonderful it is to have them all in this same space with you all of them notice that there are people here from your past.. People who have died and passed on to the other side People who are a part of your life now. Animals/pets who have loved you unconditionally, both past and present 7

8 And notice too that there are people here whom you ve never met.. people you are drawn to, people who have touched your life through art or words or religion or politics or dance All of these people are your own Blessed Community. All have come here together today to celebrate YOU! Now, still standing in the center of your Sacred Circle, just imagine that each person and animal who is there is shining its beautiful precious light onto you, in the center all at once.and turning, turning slowly around so you can look into the eyes of each and every one. Just savor the feeling of love and light that washes over you as you do this.. and also, if you choose, imagine a greater, Divine Love shining down on ALL of you from above and filling you with a feeling of safety and of being loved Now if you want ask your Circle if one or more of your Community has a message for you right now, in your life, today.. invite one or more of your Community to join you in the center listen to the message that this being has to give you today It s time to start to think about coming back to the present moment now, but first say goodbye to your Blessed Community Circle and remind yourself that you will be back very very soon. You can be here in this loving space, connected with your community, anytime, anywhere in just a matter of seconds a matter of focused awareness. Then, when you are ready, slowly and mindfully leave the circle.. finding your way back through the building the same way you came in. walking slowly and carefully. Back down the sacred path. Mindful of your breath moving in and out of your nose mindful of the love that you are bringing back with you love and a new sense of connectedness to your own blessed community.. And then in your own time and your own way. Coming back to THIS room.feel your feet on the floor, your legs, your back against the chair or whatever you are sitting on.. feel your shoulders, your neck, your head.. again, feel your breath as it enters through your nose and mouth, shimmers thru your body, then exits. Feel your stomach rising and falling with each breath. Then in your own time, opening your eyes. There is no rush. Take your time. All is well. 8
