Deep breath in, deep breath out. Now close your eyes. Darkness is what I see.

Deep breath in, deep breath out, now follow the breath. In through the nose, out through the mouth.

Think of a word for creativity. I instantly think of the word pink. Now visualise that word. I see the word pink, I see the word creativity in pink, I see a pink back drop, I see pink.

Now let the word go, let the mind wander.

I instantly let my mind wander and a bright light hits me. I’m wearing a white dress, my hair is done, I feel naturally pretty. I’m in a room, a room with no windows, no doors, it’s all white. Everything is blank white. I walk bare foot through endless white.

Then the mind wanders more, a time scale of my life starts to be drawn on the whiteness. My birth, my first steps, my first holiday. Then as I get older the trauma shows.

Sexual assault, domestic abuse, names of individuals, anxiety, depression, ocd.

I stand there and stare at the walls, graffitied on them is my life.

Breath.

Inhale, exhale.

I blow the trauma away.

Now open your eyes.

Peace.
