(Phrase your question succinctly and write it down. You will be guided to receive a message from your Higher Self. The message will be coming in the form of a symbol. You must wait for this symbol as a moviegoer waits for the picture to come onscreen – expectantly but with no anxiety. You are NOT the projectionist> It is not your responsibility to make the picture come on the screen.)

Close your eyes and become aware of your breathing. Begin letting go of the tension in your body and feel yourself relaxing … letting go. Allow your breathing to become balanced and calm … realize that gravity will hold you … let go … relax …

Focus on your body and notice any physical sensations you are having … Now, ask your body to become perfectly relaxed and still …

Focus on your emotions and notice any movement you are feeling … especially in the heart or solar plexus … Now, ask your emotions to become calm … like a lake with no ripples.

Focus on your mind and notice any thoughts you are having. Just be aware of your thoughts for a while … Ask your active mind to be quiet … Experience the stillness … the silence …

Now imagine yourself sitting inside a warm, beautiful bubble or rose-colored light. Just feel the pleasant, safe warmth. And above your head, at the top of the buddble, picture a brilliant star … shining its radiance down upon you … this star is your Higher Self. Know that your Higher Self wants to communicate with you. It is the Voice of your very soul. It will speak to you in symbols … Experience this beautiful star for a moment, and tell it you are open to receiving it's message … Now, ask your Higher Self whatever question you wish to ask it. Phrase it carefully so that you can understand the answer when it comes …

Now sit still and wait for the answer. When the symbol appears, take whatever it is as your message, and then thank your Higher Self for this meaningful gift."

(if you did not receive an answer after a minute or so say to yourself that after hearing the sound of a loud thunderbolt you will receive its message! Then imagine the sound!)

(if you are guiding a friend through this imagery and a symbol doesn't come within a minute or so, tell your friend "Take whatever comes when you hear the clap of my hands" , then clap loudly and ask "what did you get?"

It's important to understand how to completely process your imagery after completing any guided imagery exercise. You can read about that now.
