Take a moment and focus on you,

letting the day set behind you

As you slip away quietly.


LONG PAUSE


And as you shift your focus,

allow yourself to just let go.

Let go of any distracting thoughts

and stuff them in a basket

so you can stay in the present.


LONG PAUSE


Now, embrace yourself with gentleness

and self-love 

as you continue quieting the mind

and letting go,

So there’s nothing but you

in this moment


LONG PAUSE


Now, imagine being carried to Italy,

to the magnificent Tuscan countryside

not far from the art and beauty of Florence.


PAUSE


As you land in the breathtaking land,

you notice green, rolling hills 

that flow across the countryside

like a sheet gently blowing in a breeze.


PAUSE


And as your eye travels 

over the land, 

you are taken in by a

symphony of wonders

to your senses.


PAUSE


You breathe in the fresh air,

and with it the subtle woody scent

of olive trees blooming in the distance.


PAUSE


As your eye catches sight of the trees,

the beauty of the tiny white blossoms

moves you, making a spiritual connection

to you and the stunning countryside.


PAUSE


You draw in another breath

rich with the fragrance of grapes on the vine.

The honey scent lulls you 

into a state of deep calm.


PAUSE


After a few minutes, 

your ears are treated 

to the delightful sound 

of a bird singing.


PAUSE


Moments later, 

other birds begin chirping,

letting their songs

ring through the countryside.


PAUSE


As you walk through the hills,

a brown rabbit hops before you

on the path.

He pauses, looks cautiously at you

and then hops along.


PAUSE


Then, your eye catches 

a number of stone towers

guarding the countryside,

old towers built by medieval nobles

for protection.


PAUSE


As you approach one of the towers,

you feel its ancestors welcoming you

and its protective energies

building a fortress around you.


PAUSE


Along your walk,

you notice an area 

where the sounds of bubbles

call out to you.

You follow the call 

to a natural mineral spring.


PAUSE


Gingerly, you step over 

the stones leading 

the gently bubbling spring

until you can dip your feet

iInto the healing waters.


PAUSE


The air is moist

with hints of sulphur

from the spring 

and the sweetness of grapes

from a nearby winery.

And the sound of the spring

gently burbling

relaxes you.


PAUSE
