Record the following, with or without background music, to do as a regular self-care practice as often as you need and/or want.

Close your eyes or gaze downward.

Take a breath and exhale it as slowly as possible.

Visualize a place you value for the deep meaning it has for you. It can be real or imaginary.

Walk slowly into it, hands on heart, lowered shoulders, and head tilted back slightly.

What do you see?

What do you hear?

What do you smell?

What can you touch?

What is in this place that speaks to your BEing?

Can you nurture this in your everyday life?

Soak in all the aspects of this special place.

When you are ready, take a breath and feel the gratitude for this place to which you can return anytime you need nourishment.
