Great guide, Kira!
I've done something like this very similar before in my past with a fantastic result.
I never visualized a garden or a path, I think that part is entirely personal (though it is a common visual)... My visual is often just her hand, reaching out to me through light, and I know I've contacted her when I have reached her hand.
Balo, your guide will never do something you're not ready for. Before I contacted my guide, I never felt any physical sensations... the air change, been touched, or the like. I could only ever sense that they're around. Once I had contacted her a few times through my meditation I felt ready to experience those things. I've often struggled with wanting to see a spirit and I am still not ready for it. She knows that... I've had a few dreams guided by her, where I'm at a house and I can see a spirit and she is telling me that it's OK to see them, that it's not scary and the spirit is always very calm and just watches me. But, I'm still not ready to go beyond my dream guidance.
