“Future  

Self”  Guided  Imagining  Script  


 
Get  into  a  comfortable  position.  Now  allow  your  eyes  to  close  and  begin  by  focusing  your  
thoughts  on  your  breath.  Breathing  in  and  breathing  out.  Breathing  in  easily  and  
effortlessly.  Then  breathing  out.  Each  breath  allows  you  to  become  more  relaxed  and  
comfortable.  Outside  sounds  only  allow  you  to  go  deeper  inside:  a  reminder  of  how  good  
it  is  to  leave  the  noise  and  stress  of  the  outside  world  and  journey  into  the  quiet  and  
peace  of  your  inner  world.  
 
As  you  start  to  feel  a  sense  of  deep  relaxation,  picture  yourself  standing  before  a  peaceful  
lake  or  pond.  Drop  a  pebble  into  the  center  and  notice  the  water  rippling  out.  As  the  
ripples  flow  further  out  and  eventually  slow  down,  the  water  once  again  becomes  quiet  
and  peaceful  and  so  do  you.  

Now  standing  on  the  edge  of  the  body  of  water,  imagine  that  there  is  a  light  right  
between  your  eyes.  What  color  is  the  light?  Picture  that  light  as  a  bright  beam  that  
extends  out  into  space.  To  start  your  journey,  follow  the  beam  as  it  leaves  this  building  
and  travels  up  into  the  sky.  

As  you  shoot  further  into  outer  space,  take  a  minute  to  notice  the  beauty  of  the  Earth  
below—the  crystal  blue  ocean,  the  serene  white  clouds.  Allow  yourself  to  enjoy  this  
perspective  for  a  moment.  

Once  in  the  vastness  of  outer  space,  you’ll  notice  a  nearby  light  beam  of  a  differing  color.  
Begin  to  follow  that  beam  back  down  to  earth.  The  beam  is  taking  you  back  to  earth  five  
years  from  now,  five  years  into  the  future.  Keep  following  this  beam  down,  noticing  the  
curvature  of  the  earth  and  the  geography  stretched  out  below  you.  

As  you  come  closer  to  the  end  of  the  beam,  keep  noticing  where  you  are.  This  is  where  
your  future  self  lives—you,  five  years  from  now.  Come  into  contact  with  earth  and  notice  
where  you  are.  Notice  what  dwelling  or  nature  surrounds  you.    

[PAUSE  10-­‐15  seconds  between  questions  to  allow  time  to  build  out  the  vision]  

Now  move  to  the  dwelling  of  your  future  self.    

What  does  it  look  like?  What  kind  of  landscape  does  it  have?  Are  there  trees?  Flowers?  If  
so,  what  kind?  Get  a  sense  of  this  place.  

You  approach  the  entrance—you’re  about  to  meet  your  Future  Self.  As  your  Future  Self  
lets  you  in,  take  a  good  look  around.  
Greet  your  future  self  and  notice  the  way  your  future  self  returns  your  greeting,  
welcoming  you  into  this  time  and  place  five  years  in  the  future.    

What  does  this  person,  the  future  you,  look  like?  Notice  how  this  person  stands,  what  
this  person  is  wearing.  Get  a  sense  of  this  person’s  essence.  

Notice  the  inside  of  this  dwelling.  What  kind  of  person  lives  here?  What  are  the  colors  of  
this  place?  Is  anyone  else  there?  

Now  move  with  your  future  self  to  a  comfortable  place  for  a  conversation.  Perhaps  your  
future  self  offers  you  something  to  drink.  Settle  in  and  make  yourself  comfortable  for  a  
talk  with  your  future  self.  

There  are  questions  that  you  might  want  to  ask  your  future  self.  Begin  by  asking:  “What  
are  you  doing  with  your  life  now?  What  do  you  love  about  your  life?”  Take  a  moment  
now  to  hear  the  answer.  (Pause)  

Now  ask  your  future  self  the  following  question:  “What  do  I  need  to  know  to  get  me  from  
where  I  am  now  to  where  you  are?  What  would  be  most  helpful?”  Listen  to  what  your  
future  self  has  to  tell  you.  (Pause)  Good.  

Now  tell  your  future  self  one  thing  that  is  really  bothering,  hurting  or  worrying  you  right  
now...  

And  ask,  “How  did  you  overcome  this  challenge  or  heartache?”  (Pause)  

Next  ask,  “What  is  our  purpose?”  (Pause)  

Finally  ask  your  future  self  to  tell  you  one  word  that  is  important  for  you  to  remember  
when  you’re  feeling  down  or  need  support  to  keep  going  toward  your  goals.  What  is  that  
one  word?  Remember  it.    

As  you  are  about  to  leave,  you  notice  that  your  future  self  has  a  gift  for  you.  Receive  the  
gift.  What  is  it?  What  do  you  notice  about  it?  Ask  them:  What  would  you  like  me  to  know  
about  this  gift?  (Pause)  

Bringing  this  visit  to  a  close,  thank  your  future  self  for  being  here  with  you  today  and  
sharing  so  much  wisdom.  Now,  take  a  deep  breath,  breathing  in  this  experience,  
remembering  what  you  need  to  remember.  

Now  find  your  way  back  to  the  beam  of  light  and  journey  back  up  the  beam,  watching  
this  world  of  five  years  in  the  future  grow  ever  smaller  as  you  move  out  into  space.  Again,  
you  see  the  ball  of  blue  and  green  below  you,  clouds  swirling  around  it.  Notice  that  your  
beam  of  light  has  intersected  with  a  different  beam  of  light  that  will  bring  you  back  to  this  
year  and  this  location.  Follow  this  beam  of  light  back  to  the  present  time  on  earth.  As  you  
travel  down  this  beam,  notice  the  earth  growing  bigger  and  bigger.  Moving  farther  down  
the  beam,  notice  the  geography  of  the  area,  the  skyline  and  landscape  of  the  area,  and,  
finally,  come  back  into  the  room  here.  Good.  

In  a  few  moments,  I’m  going  to  count  from  three  to  one. When  I  count  to  one,  you  will  
be  refreshed  and  ready  to  remember  everything  about  your  inner  journey.    

When  you  open  your  eyes,  please  remain  silent  and  jot  down  things  you  want  to  
remember  about  your  journey.  

Three...  coming  back  to  present  time,  feeling  more  alert....    

Two...  stretching  your  body,  feeling  the  ground  beneath  you...    

And  one...  opening  your  eyes,  refreshed  and  alert.
