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,

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

from a nearby winery.
And the sound of the spring
gently burbling
relaxes you.
