Sit comfortably
In a quiet room, alone
Enjoy the silence
Breathe in through your nose
Exhale slowly from your mouth
Slow, steady, rhythm
Picture a rose bud
Hold the flower in your mind
Push out distractions
See the soft petals
Focus on every detail
Cells pulsing with life
Simple true beauty
Dew drop caressed perfection
Full of energy
Envision a flame
Light, warmth, and vital essence
Touching everything
Powerful nature
Creation, destruction, strength
Boundless potential
Watch it dance and sway
Chasing away the darkness
The aura of hope
Joining images
Place the flame below the rose
See the flower blooms
Tender sails unfurl
Sweet aroma rises forth
Forms crystalline sphere
Imagine yourself
Entering the chrysalis
Feel the warmth
Seek out areas
In yourself that cause you pain
Visualize them
Gather them, form them
Becoming Spirit Steel bars
Re-enforce your sphere
Feel yourself growing
The chrysalis molds to you
Rose flame fuels your heart
Breathe in slow and deep
Let cool life water rain down
Drink, wash away care
Emerge clean and new
Armored in experience
Strong in conviction
Meditation is an opportunity to slow down and breathe. The practice of meditative exercises and breathing techniques is found in one form or another in every culture. I wanted to mimic the 5 - 7 - 5 meter of Haiku. I hope you find healing and renewal as you envision these images and seek center. Namaste. Peace be with you and with your spirit.
