Summer Guided Visualization

Balanced Mind with Julie Potiker

Julie Potiker takes you to your favorite summer spot - through this guided visualization. Where are you, what do you hear, smell or feel? She completes the meditation with her poem, "Delicate Blossoms".

Delicate Blossoms, by Julie Potiker

Prunus persica - a Contender.

Small emerald and ruby velvet coated stones.

Untold dangers - snails, spiders, beetles, Cedar Waxwings, Bluejays and Mockingbirds among other friends I willingly host in my garden.

Small furry creatures - a cartel of squirrels, they too, belong in the ecosystem of all things.

A net my only shield to offer.

Miracle of resilience that one day its juice will run down my chin, drip down the inside of my wrist, stain my favorite white t-shirt.

Those that survive the journey from flower to ripe peach announce summertime in all its glory.

The nectar of childhood’s sweet memory.
