A Dream Meditation

You have just awakened from a nice little afternoon power nap. As you roll over on your back, you can faintly hear the birds chirping in the distance. Their melodies are so sweet and so sincere it warms your heart to hear them. Just laying there for a few moments, you languidly stretch your arms high above your head and then begin to recall a vivid dream you had during your nap. In your dream, you were strolling by a little stream, and you had stopped to watch the little fishes meander their way down the stream. There were hundreds of them and they reminded you of a happy time when you had gone fishing with a special person in your life. You thought of that experience and began to smile, remembering the day as if it were yesterday, even though it was many years ago. The two of you had placed your chairs on a little pier, and you also had little footstools to prop your feet on. You could hear summer sounds--little frogs calling out, and the buzz of bees looking for their nectar at the edge of the lake. You sat back and watched and listened as the lake water where you were fishing lapped against the sides of the pier. It was so calm and tranquil—such a relaxing sound.

After some time of sitting in the chair, you became aware of a gentle tug at first, then a stronger one, on your fishing pole. And yes, you then knew that you indeed had caught a fish! And a nice healthy specimen it was, too. In your dream of this memory, you began to imagine how tasty the fish would be for your dinner later that evening. You planned to have crispy fresh salad greens and a nice bunch of grilled vegetables to go with the fish. And for dessert, freshly cut fruit and a chocolate brownie was planned! Your dream recalled for you such a sweet memory, and you were grateful for it.

Arising from the sofa where you had been napping, you walk into the kitchen and pour yourself a large glass of frosty, cool lemonade. Taking out your journal, a pen, and your lemonade, you head out to the yard, and under the shade of the big, shiny, green tree, you begin to record the dream, how it made you feel, and also how you are feeling right at this moment. As you begin to write, you realize that you are feeling very good—SO serene and joy-filled, really, and the pen just flows with your words. Before you realize it, you have filled an entire page with happy memories and happy feelings. Finally, you stop writing, and leaning back in the chair, you start to think of all the things that you appreciate about your day today. There’s the delicious aroma of soup simmering on the stove. Then there’s the phone call you received from a friend earlier in the day. There’s the time you allowed for yourself to take the nap. There are so many things that run through your mind, and with a long, slow sigh, you quietly utter aloud, thank you, Universe. Thank you.
