The Journey

 Peaceful Place is expressed in all my books and meditation CDs. It is the precurser to relaxing and releasing stress quickly. I received a lovely expression of Peaceful Place - really a journey of how to get to her comfortable chair (inside her mind) from Rebecca James who attended the recent CHI Seminar and has put her journey to verse. Thank you for sharing Rebecca.

The pathway is paved
The gates always closed
But as I approach
It opens….
This is just as I chose

The flowers are blooming
Their perfume so sweet
I walk on the grass
It’s soft on my feet

I look up to the sky
The sky…….yes it’s blue
I walk to the cliff edge
I create my own view

The birds they are bathing
In a birdbath quite near
And a waterfall flows slowly
Creating water sounds to my ears

As I brush past a pelican
Standing high on a hedge,
It flies off right in front of me
Towards the vista, from the edge

A view so magnificent
So wide and so clear
This is my peaceful place
I have nothing to fear

I breathe deep, the fresh air
As the sun beams down too
My door opens wide
Exactly on cue

The floors with plush carpet
The walls made of glass
As I walk through the door
The cold air rushes past

The ocean is brewing
I can hear it afar
The door closes behind me
Left a little ajar

I turn and look around me
And spot my position
I walk slowly to it
With the utmost precision

I sit slowly back
As rainbow clouds float on in
And a white tunnel of light
To protect and guide me within

That’s when I know…….
When I know I am there
That’s right!
