Free 15 Minute Guided Imagery Script: Appreciation with Jesus [PDF]

Make yourself comfortable, and close your eyes. 

Take a slow deep breath, and let go of any tension in your body, as you settle into a more relaxed posture. 

Feel yourself dropping down from your mind into your body. 

Feel the weight of your body sinking into the surface you’re resting on, as you become still more comfortable and relaxed.

Imagine you’re walking barefoot along a secluded beach, close to where the surf thins out onto the shore, and then recedes again. 

Perhaps you’d enjoy letting the water softly lap up to your ankles, or would prefer to make your way just out of its reach. 

It’s a beautiful, warm day, with just the right amount of cloud cover. 

As you walk along, you can feel the packed sand beneath your feet, as you sink in a little with each step.

A light breeze brings a touch of ocean mist to your face, and you can smell the clean scent of the sea. 

The rhythmic sounds of the waves and the sea birds soothe and comfort you, and all the sights, sounds, and feelings here convey a deep sense of peace, and harmony with nature.

Before long, you notice the sound of the ocean has become softer, the feeling of the air around you lighter. 

And within, you also begin to feel lighter, clearer, and more open. 

And soon you feel the presence of the Christ, and notice Jesus walking along the shore beside you, as if he’d been there all along. 

His company feels perfectly natural, familiar, and warm. 

And from the moment he joins you, you feel that love is everywhere, coming from him, from the sea, the sky, the sand, and especially from your own heart. 

Love is present, and very apparent, as if it were being amplified within you so there can be no mistaking it.

Take a few moments to experience this, and to simply be with Jesus, as you walk along together, where the sea meets the sand.

Jesus leads you back along the shore to a quiet cove where the two of you can comfortably sit and rest. 

Consider one situation in your life today, where despite your best efforts, things do not go the way you believe they should. 

Take a moment to get a good look at that situation, and be especially aware of the way you feel about it.

Now consider one situation in the world that you believe is tragic and unfair, over which you believe you have little or no influence. 

Take a moment to get a good look at that situation, and become keenly aware of how you feel about it.

Now Jesus leads you toward a small cave nearby, and you enter together. 

At first it’s very dark, but as you move forward you find a faint light is drawing you deeper into the cave. 

Finally, you come to an opening, where Jesus holds you securely, as you look out. 

There before you is the universe in a night sky, filled with more stars than you’ve ever seen. 

The scene is breathtaking, and overwhelming in its vastness. 

Without Jesus saying anything, you know he is showing you the creation before you to illustrate the magnitude of what God can do. 

Take a moment to let this experience into your heart, and absorb it as fully as possible.

Quietly Jesus now leads you back to the cove where you were seated before, and he kneels down, pointing to something in the sand, for you to pick up and examine. 

It’s a seashell, and embedded in it is the fossil imprint of a tiny fish that swam in the sea millions of years ago. 

Jesus looks at you. 

God made this also, and the ocean, and the land, and the sky, and all the millions of creatures that swim, walk, and fly. 

And God made Jesus. 

And God made you.

Life is unfolding within you, and around you, according to God’s plan. 

You are being extended an invitation now to release the need to know God’s plan, in order to come gracefully into humble appreciation of a world of miracles.

Look once more at the current situation in your life you first examined earlier in the meditation, and see it, in all its apparent imperfection, surrounded by the light of God. 

Remember the way you felt about that situation before, and consider how you can adjust your attitude to best support yourself and any others involved. 

Jesus places his hand upon your heart to help you come into the harmony of humility, as you take some time to make a shift. 

Take several slow, deep breaths, release that situation from your own ego, and turn it over to God, where it belongs.

And now once again consider the situation in the world you earlier looked at, that you consider unfair. 

Go deep into your heart, and ask God to help you let go of any judgment, about the world, life, God, or Creation. 

Open your heart, and send love, without any condition on how it is to be used, to that situation. 

As you do this, Jesus places his hand again upon your heart. 

Feel a shift within you, as any bitterness you may have held is dissolved and released. 

Release that situation from your ego, and turn it over to God, where it belongs. Take some time to let this unfold.

Jesus turns and you stand facing each other, as he blesses you with his deepest love and compassion. 

Take some time to experience the love that radiates from Jesus’ heart toward your own. 

Open your own heart and expand it as wide as you can. 

Receive all the love your heart can receive.

It’s almost time to bring this inner journey to a close. 

So gather together anything you have learned, that you’d like to bring with you.

Take a moment to thank Jesus for his love and support. 

And thank yourself, for giving yourself this gift.

Gradually bring your awareness back into your body, and your physical surroundings. 

Take your time, and when you’re ready, open your eyes, and feel awake, alert, and refreshed.
