    Time For Meditation | Roads Less Traveled

    Meditation Welcome to our Roads Less Traveled Meditation. Join me by taking a deep breath in through your nose and slowly exhale out through your mouth. Take another deep breath in and slowly exhale out. One more deep breath in and slowly exhale out. Imagine that you have chosen to take the road less traveled, the path worn in search of the soul. As you walk this road or path less traveled, feel the ground beneath your feet, the touch of the warm, gentle breeze on your skin. Notice the landscape all around you. Trees, stone and earth seemingly painted on peaks and valleys. You are safe in this moment of quiet surrender. With each step, you are moving further away from the noise of daily life and deeper into relaxation. Give yourself permission to leave any stress or worry behind. Allow your shoulders to dropand your neck to soften. As you continue your journey, feel the peace of this place. Thequiet stillness. Surrounded by nature’s art. Take a slow, deep breath in… and as you exhale, release whatever remaining weight that you may be carrying. There are no deadlines, here. Nothing to be solved or resolved. It is your moment to just be. As you navigate your days and weeks ahead, take a moment to calm your body and return to a road or path less traveled. Robert Frost assures us that it has made all the difference. ~ Beth Cruz Time For Notes * Check out the new: Sick of this Shop! * Check out the new network and affiliate calendar: BroadBanner Learn new skills: * B.

  2. Time For Meditation | Beth's Garden

    Time For Meditation | Beth's Garden

    Meditation Welcome to Beth’s Garden Meditation. Join me by taking a deep breath in through your nose and slowly exhale out through your mouth. Take another deep breath in and slowly exhale out. One more deep breath in and slowly exhale out. Golfer Walter Hagen famously said, “Don’t hurry, don’t worry, and be sure to smell the flowers along the way.” It is now more important than ever to allow yourself to pause for moments of calm and stillness. Release all that does not serve you on this journey - any worry, tension or fear. Imagine it floating away in the gentle breeze created by a hummingbird’s wings. Take note of the calm that flowers bring to your being. Nature is medicine for the soul. As you walk in this garden, perhaps you feel the gentle warmth of the sun on your skin and feel the ground beneath your feet. Notice the gentle petals, the vibrant colors and delightful scents of rose, honeysuckle and peony. Feel your body soften as you take this moment to simply be. There is no hurry, no rush in this garden. It is a place of peace and tranquility. Take this feeling of gentle calm with you as you move throughout your day and week. I welcome you to return, when you wish for a moment of beauty. ~ Beth Cruz Time For Notes * Check out the new: Sick of this Shop! * Check out the new network and affiliate calendar: BroadBanner Learn new skills: * B.

    Time For Meditation | Marine Life

    Meditation Welcome to our Marine Life meditation. Join me by taking a deep breath in through your nose and slowly exhale out through your mouth. Take another deep breath in and slowly exhale out. One more deep breath in and slowly exhale out. As you listen to the calming sound of the waves and water, notice your face. If you are experiencing any tightness or tension, take this moment to release it. Allow your forehead and mouth to soften as you let your worries go. You do not need to carry them with you. Gently move your focus from your face to your neck and shoulders. If you feel any tightness, allow your shoulders to drop and release the weight you are carrying. Keep your breathing slow and rhythmic, in unison with the sound of the gentle ocean waves. Loosen your arms and hands, feeling calm move through your body as you scan for any stress or strain. Now, gently turn your focus to your core. Your core stabilizes your body and keeps it physically balanced. Take this moment to dissolve any additional worry in your center. From your core, focus on your thighs, your calves and now your feet. Allow them to relax with the rest of your body. Take one deep breath in through your nose and slowly exhale out of your mouth. You are safe in this moment of pause. Take this with you as you move through your day and week. ~ Beth Cruz Time For Notes * Check out the new: Sick of this Shop! * Check out the new network and affiliate calendar: BroadBanner Learn new skills: * B.

    Time For Meditation | Where The Wind Blows

    Meditation Welcome to our Where the Wind Blows meditation. Begin by taking a deep breath in through your nose and slowly exhale out through your mouth. Take another deep breath in and slowly exhale out. One more deep breath in and slowly exhale out. Imagine you are standing on a quiet ocean beach. The air is fresh, you feel the cool wind on your skin Above you, seagulls fly effortlessly over the shoreline. They do not rush They do not strain to fly They simply lean into the wind and allow it to carry them. There is no weight on their shoulders There is no questioning or second-guessing They are secure in their truth That no matter how difficult the path Our feathered friends gently spread their beautiful wings and take flight. And you… you are allowed to do the same. Just like them, you do not have to have everything figured out in this moment. You only need to breathe And now, gently, the scene begins to shift. The wide ocean fades into something familiar.The sounds of wind and waves soften Perhaps now you are in your own backyard. You watch and listen quietly as various birds stay in trust Some pause.Some watch.You feel only peace in this still moment The same wind that carried the seagulls across the open skymoves here too. It moves through the trees.It moves through the feathers.It moves through you. You do not have to know where it is taking you.You only need to trust that you are held in its current. And when you feel you can spread your wingsyou are allowed to fly. Whenever you need a moment of calm, you can return carrying with you the quiet strength of where the wind blows. ~ Beth Cruz Time For Notes * Check out the new: Sick of this Shop! * Check out the new network and affiliate calendar: BroadBanner Learn new skills: * B.
