Sit comfortably in a relaxed position with your hands in your lap. Breathe slowly and deeply while telling your muscles to relax. Surround yourself with the brilliant white light; breathe it in and wrap it around you.

Now see a small well before you. Drop all the negatives in your life into the well. Watch them fall down into the darkness, away from you. Walk away and leave them there.

You find yourself walking along a path across a small meadow. Not far ahead of you is a grove of trees. The sun is warm on your skin. You smell the flowers blooming in the meadow grass and hear the songs of birds from the grove of trees. You follow the path until you reach the trees.

As you walk under the shade of the trees, you smell the sharp scent of pine needles and fir. You reach out one hand to touch the bark on the tree. Little patches of sunlight fall through the trees onto the path before you. You continue to follow the path, aware of the birds and flowers along your way. You may even see squirrels and deer.

Soon you arrive at a tiny waterfall in the midst of the grove. Around the waterfall are large flat rocks that border the little stream that carries the water away. There are patches of brilliantly colored flowers, beds of tall ferns, and smaller trees by the waterfall. Dragonflies hover over the water, and butterflies dance in the air above it. Small harmless lizards bask on one of the rocks.

You sit down on one of the flat rocks. This is a place at the edge between the worlds, a place where you can meet Elves, Faires, and other nature spirits. If any animal approaches you, try to communicate with it, for it may be an Otherworld familiar come to make you aware of its friendship. If nature spirits approach you, you may talk with them also.

As you sit and relax in the warm sun, you see a figure coming toward yo through th trees. You feel a wave of love and friendship come to you from the person moving toward you. In a short time, the figure steps into the open near the waterfall. You can see the person clearly now. This is one of your spiritual teachers. Be aware of whether this person is a man or woman, tall, short, dark or fair. How they are dressed? What color their eyes? Take in every detail you can.

Your teacher greets you as they sit beside you on the rock. The two of you sit and talk beside the waterfall. You may ask your teacher any question you wish. If the teacher cannot answer you wish, or the result will not be realiable. Take all the time you need to become aquainted with the teacher.

Soon, the teacher bids you farewell and goes back into the forest. You again follow the path back throught the trees until you come to the meadow. In the air before you is the bright outline of a door. You step through the door and find yourself back in your physical body. You open your eyes, and the meditation has ended.
