About this session
- Releases frustration
- Restores inner strength
- Eases daily stress
- Brings inner peace
Summer McStravick guides you through a slow body relaxation, then into a daydream where you walk across the muddy floor of a drained reservoir behind a cracked dam. You see that the lost water was your own energy, mend the wall, and let glowing light swirl up around you until you feel full again.
It helps anyone who has spent weeks wrestling with the same problem, person or outcome and feels worn thin. Use it after a draining day, before a decision you keep forcing, or any time you want to put a worry down and trust that something easier is coming.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
What does the broken dam stand for?
The cracked dam and the low lake are pictures of your own energy. The session says the water spilled away as you worried and battled over situations again and again, often without noticing. Repairing the dam means closing those leaks, so you feel, in the words of the track, "strong, and contained."
What is the line I'm asked to say about one frustration?
Midway through, you let one thing that drained or distracted you rise to the surface. Then you say, "Find me a way or release me from the desire," twice, while your arms are lifted in the light. It is a way of handing the matter over, so you stop gripping it.
Do I have to give up what I want?
Not exactly. The phrase offers two outcomes: a way forward appears, or the wanting itself loosens. The track says your flow, your greater self, may even have something better that can arrive once you let go of the wrong directions and outcomes. Either result is described as leading to clarity, contentment and peace.
Why does it begin by relaxing each part of the body?
Before the imagery starts, you soften your forehead, jaw, neck and shoulders, let your chest expand, and release your stomach and lower back. This moves you into a dreamy, daydreaming state, so the dam and lake come easily. You breathe at your own pace throughout, with no counting.
What is the swirling light around me?
As water rises from your ankles, it becomes a ribbon of light that circles and fills you, with walls of colour rising to the sky. You move your arms through it and feel supported and floating. It stands for your refilled energy, which the track says you can now spend on easy paths where your effort is rewarded, rather than forcing things.
How does the meditation end?
The lake image fades and you are invited back to your body and present awareness. Before that, you picture yourself already walking a new path free of frustration or longing. When you open your eyes, the closing words describe feeling softened, released, purified, filled up and content.
