Magic Carpet Ride

 

This magic‑carpet moment is my gift to you. All you need is your imagination.

This post is just a sample of how some people use "a magic carpet moment" to help themselves or their children relax. No equipment is required. No courses are needed to speak softly or picture a calm place in your imagination.

For example, today I'm sharing lyrics from one of my songs—warm, gentle, and full of the quiet joy of becoming. 

 We are waiting for my relaxing illustrated children's stories to be published, printed, and listed on Malika Bourne Legacy. My publisher is TEOE Press. Children's Bedtime Story Books...Coming Soon – Malika Bourne Legacy

 

 

When I worked in children's day care or watched over other kids, like my grandchildren, soft music was playing in the background. Some kiddos like their backs patted while I'd whisper a soft and gentle story. 

Today I'm sharing the lyrics of one of my songs, Magic Carpet Unwind Ride: Over the Meadow, with you. I wrote the lyrics and added music on Suno to a calming song in 2025*.

The following lyrics will be published soon in an illustrated children's storybook. Details as they happen are updated in Children's Bedtime Story Books...Coming Soon – Malika Bourne Legacy

 

Calming Guided Imagery: “A Soft Ride to the Meadow of Florence”

(gentle, warm, movement‑friendly, perfect for settling)

Now find your space on your magic carpet... and now close your eyes.

Take a slow breath in…
and let it float out like a warm breeze.

Now imagine…

You’re standing at the edge of a glowing meadow.
The grass shimmers softly, like tiny lanterns swaying in the sun.
Everything feels warm and safe.

A friendly magic carpet drifts down in front of you,
fluttering like it’s happy you’re here.
It lowers itself just enough for you to step on.

When you sit, the carpet lifts gently —
smooth, steady, like rocking on a calm wave.
Your shoulders relax.
Your breath gets softer.

Below you, the Meadow of Florence stretches out,
golden and peaceful.
Tulips open slowly,
petals glowing like honey in the sunlight.

The carpet glides in a slow circle,
letting you see the whole meadow.
You can stretch your arms,
wiggle your fingers in the warm air,
or just sit and breathe.

A soft light grows inside your chest —
the same light the flowers use to rise.
It feels warm.
It feels steady.
It feels like you.

The carpet brings you gently back to the grass.
It gives a tiny wiggle — a happy goodbye —

You step onto the soft ground,
feeling calm, bright,
and full of quiet joy.
You carry the light now.
Just like the blooms.

Before you go, little traveler, pause for a moment.
Let the world slow down around you.
There is no need to rush — the magic waits, and so does the light.

Take one soft breath.
Feel the warmth you gathered here.
Let it settle in your chest like a tiny lantern.

Count one blessing… then another… then one more.
Each one is a bloom on your path,
a reminder that you are growing,
rising,
becoming.

Walk gently from this place.
Carry your light with you.
And return whenever your heart needs a quiet meadow to rest.

Above is one of the graphic art pieces that I created with the help of AI.

You can order the peaceful image as throw pillows or wall hangings. Right now, I am using the image as an example to help young or old drift off to an imaginary space and let your muscles "melt".

Yes, that is Nanna Banana, Malika Bourne, above on a magic carpet in the Meadow of Florence. We have AI graphic arts apps to thank for this image, along with my creative prompts.
