Bring your focus inward,

to the quietness of your breath,

to the stillness of

who you really are.

PAUSE

Pause for a moment,

and embrace the newness of this moment.

the newness of you.

PAUSE

Imagine, now, a crystal blue river

gently streaming before you,

A river of your past.

PAUSE

As you gaze into the waters,

you see lighted images

bubbling up to the surface–

Images that defined you.

Stay with these images.

PAUSE

As each image surfaces,

reach into it,

acknowledging what you learned

and how the experience defined you.

PAUSE

Some of the images may be painful,

And that’s okay.

Try to focus on what the experience gave you.

Did it teach you something?

Did it cause you to pivot?

What “gift” can you draw from it?

PAUSE

Now, take a moment,

and thank each experience.

PAUSE 

Breathe some more.

And as you breathe,

Let the river of the past dissolve.

PAUSE

Now, imagine you are in the driver’s seat

of your favorite car–your dream car,

With all the bells and whistles you could imagine.

PAUSE

And, as you put the car in gear,

You see your future ahead.

Your dreams and goals are all on the road before you.

PAUSE

And, as you look in the rear view mirror,

you see the experiences of the past

behind you.

But, you also notice that

all the gifts from those experiences

are passengers in the back seat.

The gifts that defined you

are coming with you to the future.

PAUSE

Breathe,

and once again thank those experiences

for tagging along.

They are key parts of you

that you will want and need

as you realize the dreams and goals

ahead of you.

Sometimes, you have to look behind

in order to go ahead.

NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
