_____________________________________________
Before you begin

  • Prepare your space and ensure you will not be disturbed.
  • Wear comfortable clothing.
  • Use an eye cover, if preferred.
  • Have a notebook/journal and pen ready.
  • Optional: Prepare a question for your journey. It could be anything you’re grappling with at the moment.
    • Note: It’s best not to ask a “When” question; in Non-ordinary Reality there is no “time” as we understand it.
    • Write your question in your notebook or journal.

After the meditation

  • Sit up slowly. Take a moment to return to Ordinary Reality.
  • Write whatever you remember from your journey into your notebook/journal. Use all the senses!
  • Consider how you might incorporate the offerings you received from the journey into your life, starting today.

Good luck, and blessings on your journey.
