The Presence

by Shepherd Hoodwin

Shepherd Hoodwin

Imagine the presence of a great warmth that feels utterly nurturing, good, and peaceful.

See it as the most beautiful color or colors that you can imagine.

If it is multicolored, notice its design.


Feel it as having the texture or sensation of something incredibly soft, like a favorite blanket or article of clothing, the skin of a baby, or the fur of an animal.

 

Imagine that you can smell this presence.

Perhaps it is like lilacs, a forest after it has rained, or cookies baking.

 

You are utterly surrounded by the color, softness, and scent of this presence.

It permeates every cell of your body, enlivening it.

It is healing everything that is not well in your body.

It is causing every muscle to release old, static energies.

The energies of your body are now flowing beautifully.

 

This presence is calming your mind.

The "bumps" are being smoothed as if by a gentle breeze blowing over them.

You know that there is an answer to every question troubling you and that you are capable of knowing it.

Feel your mind unwind, becoming still.

 

This presence is filling your emotions with balance and richness.

Every troubled feeling is embraced in this presence and made whole.

 

This presence now pervades your entire spirit.

Everything that moves out from you and comes in to you is full of the lovely color, softness, and scent of this presence.

Something deep inside of you breathes a deep sigh of relief.

You are home again.

This presence is you.
