About this session
- Builds inner safety
- Relaxes the body
- Invites guidance
- Softens fear
Summer McStravick speaks in the first person, so you simply follow along as your own thoughts. You breathe in to a count of three, let a warm glow soften your body from forehead to feet, then drift on a gentle current of light toward a place of total acceptance, where you ask to be guided.
It suits anyone who wants to start the morning feeling supported, or end a long day by setting worry down. It also helps in moments of uncertainty, when you want to feel steadier about your next choice and more open to what comes. Spend about twenty-one minutes with it.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
What am I actually asking for when I say "guide me"?
You ask to be shown what will make you happiest and led to where you should go next. You also ask for the right ideas to "fall into my lap or pop into my head" and for inspired thoughts and action. You then say "I accept," which makes it a moment of receiving as well as asking.
What is the protection it describes, and does it stay after the meditation?
It is pictured as a layer that closes around you from the inside, flexible and breathable yet secure. It lets in only right action, sweetness and joy, and negativity bounces off. The track says it remains like a brilliant shield when you return to your external life, so you can recall that image during the day.
Do I need to believe in God for this to work?
No. The track calls the presence "God or source creation or universal mind" and says it makes no difference what it's called. What matters is the feeling that when you are in it, you are led, cocooned and returned to the greater flow of life. You can use whichever word feels right to you.
Why does it say I can cry or laugh here?
The place you float in is described as one of pure acceptance, where there is no wrong and you are perfect just as you are. That is why you are invited to be soft, open and childlike, and to feel, see, understand and express any emotion. Safety comes first, so guidance can follow.
How does the body relaxation at the start work?
You breathe in slowly counting to three, hold, then release, and repeat evenly. Then a warm, soothing light moves down you: forehead, jaw, neck, shoulders, chest and heart, abdomen, and legs all the way to the floor. Each place it touches loosens and lets go before the mind follows.
How does the meditation end?
It doesn't push you out. You float in the feeling of "what's next," which it names as love, awareness, expansion, joy and inspired action. You then choose to stay with that knowing until you decide to return to regular consciousness, so you set the pace of coming back.
