Showing results for "An Encounter" in Meditation

This meditation lovingly guides you into your inner depths. You travel through your emotional fields with the help of dolphins and reappear freed with a light heart. Do you notice how old emotions hold you captive? Could they be emotions that are so old, that you don't even know where they came from? Would you like to transform of your old, hindering emotions and redesign your life with a free heart? This meditation helps you to gently dive into yourself and swim through your inner obstacles. It is not about "enduring and mastering" of something inside of you or even "forcing" a change.
