Breathe deep and slow,

gathering yourself

in peace 

for a night 

of complete rest.

LONG PAUSE

Now, allow yourself 

to feel a wave 

of relaxation,

starting at your toes

and moving slowly

through all of your body.

LONG PAUSE

Take another slow, deep breath,

and feel the wave of relaxation

rolling over you once again.

Embrace the relaxation.

LONG PAUSE

Now, see if you can visualize

Standing by a sapphire lake.

There are rocks

jutting out from the sides,

and green water grasses

wafting in a breeze.

PAUSE

A black water bird

skirts across the

top of the water,

Then dunks its head

beneath the surface

to catch a tiny fish.

PAUSE

Dragonflies dance in the air,

every once in a while,

alighting on a lilypad

or blade of grass.

PAUSE

Breathe in gently,

and notice the tranquil feeling 

You have just standing 

and watching nature softly hum

in and around the water.

PAUSE

Now, imagine if you can,

notice a pool of bubbles

forming in the middle 

of the lake.

PAUSE

Over time,

the bubbles seem more intense 

as they rise out of the water.

and, as they do, 

they turn to white water

that cascades back into the lake.

PAUSE

The bubbles continue rising

like a 360-degree waterfall.

Then, slowly,

the bubbles 

fade away.

PAUSE

Now, take a deep breath,

and imagine, if you can,

the silhouette of a woman 

appearing in the middle of the lake.

She glistens in silver

and radiates her glow like the sun.

PAUSE

In a few seconds,

she sees you,

and a wide smile

crosses her face.

She extends her arm,

welcoming you to join her.

PAUSE

Without a second thought,

you step onto the water.

It supports you fully,

as you walk toward her.

PAUSE

When you reach her,

she folds her arms around you

in an airy hug.

You feel her total acceptance.

PAUSE

Then, after a moment,

you and the water goddess

sink into the lake.

You are totally safe and comfortable.

PAUSE

Beneath the surface, 

you breathe easily

and walk with the goddess effortlessly.

PAUSE

As you stroll together,

fish pause and seem to bow.

The water goddess smiles

and raises her hand

in a gesture of peace.

PAUSE

A few moments later,

you come upon a cave

that glistens in silver

like the water goddess.

You know instantly

that this is where

the water goddess lives.

PAUSE

As you enter the cave,

you see gleaming muscle shells 

lining the walls and glistening

like gems.

PAUSE

The goddess beckons you

to sit in a large clamshell

lined with the softest grass.

You nestle comfortably

in the grassy chair.

PAUSE

Moments later,

the water goddess speaks.

but her words come telepathically,

not verbally.

and in seconds, 

she conveys to you

the story of her life.

You feel imbued with her knowledge.

You feel imbued with her peace.

PAUSE

She speaks again telepathically,

this time sharing all she knows

about your life.

You feel comforted 

that she knows and fully accepts you.

PAUSE

Time passes, but not in a linear fashion.

You become aware that you have no idea

how long you’ve spent with the goddess.

The goddess recognizes this and smiles.

She thanks you for visiting

and expresses her hope 

that you will share her knowledge

of the water with others.

PAUSE

Then, with a wave of her hand,

a current of water

carries you out of the glistening cave,

through the lake,

and back to shore.

You arrive on the bank of the lake completely dry.

PAUSE
