Close your eyes
Take several deep, relaxing breaths, clearing your mind of extraneous thoughts
Once you've reached a relaxed state, imagine a natural setting that is calming and comforting to you: an ocean beach, a meadow in summer, a forest clearing in the rain, a flower garden, a grassy hillside
Imagine a bench in the middle of your area (I like to envision a wrought-iron park bench with aged wooden slats, but picture whatever is comfortable to you)
Approach the bench and sit down
Send a thought out that you would like to meet your spirit guide
Wait for the guide to approach, and ask him or her to be seated
Ask his or her name, and what he or she is here to teach you
If this is your first attempt, keep this meeting brief, thank your guide for coming, and slowly bring your consciousness back to the room in which you're seated[/b]
