Visualization to assist in shifting to a new emotion
Visualize yourself sitting in a beautiful forest. The gracefully twisted trunks of the trees surround you and their branches weave together above your head.
But this is no ordinary forest. These trees here consist entirely of light. While they hold the forms of trees from their roots to the tips of their leaves they are pure energy, with waves of different colours moving through them.
You admire the beauty of the trees for some time, but then your attention turns inward. You quiet your mind and allow the emotion(s) you are currently feeling to come to the fore of your awareness. You sit with this emotion without judgement, allowing it to simply be.
You notice that the light of the trees near you has shifted so that their colour now matches the emotion you are feeling. And it seems they are waiting, as if coaxing you to make a new choice.
You consider for a moment and choose a new emotion that you would like to feel. You see the light of the trees once again shift so that their trunks and branches are a mixture of the colour of the first emotion and the colour of the new emotion that you wish to move towards. The energy of the new colour baths your body, seeping into your being, helping you to gradually reach and hold the new emotion that you have chosen.
