The purpose of this meditation is to help you relax.  Especially if you are stuck in the middle of difficult financial circumstances, you may be feeling extremely pressured and drained emotionally.  In such a state, it is nearly impossible to tap into the natural flow of prosperity.  Instead, you need to be able to step back from your money problems for a few minutes.  A few minutes are often all it takes!

To begin, first find a quiet place where you won’t be disturbed for 15-30 minutes.  Lie down or sit in a comfortable chair, and be sure you are wearing loose, comfortable clothing.  Remove your shoes if you wish.  Try to make the room dim by closing the blinds; or if it’s nighttime, use a small reading lamp to cast a soft glow through the room.  Put on soothing music if you wish, but try to avoid music that contains lyrics or vocals of any kind so it doesn’t distract you from your visualization.

Once you are settled, begin taking some very slow, deep breaths.  With every inhalation, feel your abdomen expand, and then your chest.  Fill your lungs with as much air as you can, pause for 2-3 seconds, and then slowly exhale until your lungs are empty.

Continue with deep breathing (do it slowly; you want to relax, not hyperventilate) until you feel very calm and buoyant.  If random thoughts try to intrude into your mind, gently set them aside and return your focus to breathing.

When you feel completely at ease, call up a mental picture of a river.  This river is not too large and not too small; perhaps 25 feet across, with water running smoothly and lazily downstream.  See yourself standing on the bank of this river, feeling hot, agitated, and emotionally depleted.  The water looks so refreshing and cool that you decide to step into it.

Imagine dipping a toe into the water and finding it to be a comfortable temperature; not too cold or warm.  Encouraged, you wade into the water until you are standing waist-deep in the middle of the river.

You lean back and begin floating on top of the water with your head upstream, and your feet pointing downstream.  Relax into the sensation of the cool, cleansing water flowing gently over your body.  Notice how weightless and unburdened you feel.

As you float, imagine the water being infused with brilliant light, as if it were illuminated from within.  As the water gently flows over you it now creates a tingling sensation on your skin, as if it contains tiny bursts of crackling energy.  The entire river begins to transform into a powerful flow of universal source energy; alive and loving as it embraces and supports you.

Feel this river of energy coursing over you, around you, under you and through you.  Relax into it and imagine that all of your inner blockages are being dissolved effortlessly and completely as you allow goodness in all forms to flow into your life.

Stay with this image for as long as you like.  When you’re ready to come out of the meditation, imagine slowly letting your feet sink until they are resting on the floor of the river.  Stand up slowly and feel the energy running down your body to rejoin the flow of energy in the river.

Raise your face to the sky above and allow your heart to fill with gratitude for the prosperity blessing you have received.  Then wade back to the bank of the river and climb out, feeling refreshed and invigorated by the energy you have received.

Bring your attention gently back to the present moment, and take your time coming back to conscious awareness.  Open your eyes and gently stretch your muscles and move your body until you feel completely grounded again.

Then go about your normal activities, keeping that feeling of buoyancy in the forefront of your mind.
