And now, imagine releasing them. into a woven basket with a lid that closes– a lid that you can open whenever you like after meditation. PAUSE Now, take a deep breath. And another. And, allow yourself to relax. PAUSE Now, draw in another deep breath, and as you do, Give yourself permission To visualize a situation Where someone hurt you. See if you can keep your emotional distance from the situation. Just observe it. PAUSE Breathe deep now,  And imagine your heart sending waves Of forgiveness, Waves of grace, Onto this person,  Onto this situation.  PAUSE Let it heal, Let it lighten, Let it dissolve.  LONG PAUSE Now come back into yourself, And invite yourself to imagine A moment when you made a mistake,  Or didn’t feel great about yourself for some reason.  PAUSE Imagine waves of forgiveness and grace, Flowing from your heart, And pouring over you, Like a gentle waterfall. Taking away any pain, All the shame, All the blame.  PAUSE Feel yourself heal, Feel yourself cleanse, Feel yourself free.  LONG PAUSE Now come back to center, One with the rhythmic beating of your heart. Bring your hand to feel it, As you bow your head, And honor your heart’s ability to forgive and love.  PAUSE Now, breathe. and let the memory go. Keep breathing. PAUSE And now breathe, And shift to imagining a situation that  you’re concerned about. A situation with  who might become angry or frustrated when you see them. Allow yourself to visualize this person from a distance and to avoid judging yourself or them. PAUSE Now, breathe deeply again, this time visualizing the aura of your heart reaching out to them, touching them, wrapping them in pink  with love and light. Hold them in this space. PAUSE Now, take a minute and notice that, as your love and light envelopes them, their face softens, their emotions shift, and they are  more open and receptive to you. And when the situation you were concerned about is presented to them, they respond with kindness,  compassion,  and understanding. PAUSE Now, breathe. Remember, forgiving is not forgetting, and you have the power to choose how or whether you continue  the relationship. Forgiveness is for you. Because you deserve Happiness, Peace, and Love. Know that you can open and close the heart’s door to forgiveness whenever you want.
