Hi,
This is Frankie,
And welcome to this Connecting to the Elements meditation.
I invite you to take a deep breath in,
And slowly let it out,
And let your body stay with these nice,
Slow,
Deep breaths,
In and out of your body,
Noticing the natural element of air that's flowing in and out of your body.
Feel the element of earth beneath you,
Acknowledge the fire within you,
The water flowing through you and in your veins,
And the spirit that connects you to all things.
These elements are not separate from you,
They are part of your being.
As you breathe,
Feel yourself becoming more aware of how the earth,
Air,
Fire,
Water and spirit interact with your body and with your energy.
Allow yourself to feel connected to the natural world.
Let's begin by grounding yourself into the earth.
Imagine roots growing from the base of your spine,
Reaching deep into the soil,
Connecting you to the solid foundation of the earth.
Feel its stability,
Its support,
Its strength,
As you breathe in,
Feel the earth's energy rising up through your roots,
Filling you with a sense of groundedness and safety.
Bring your attention to the air around you,
Feel the lightness of the breeze,
How it moves freely without obstruction.
Allow your breath to become as light and free as the wind,
Flowing in and out effortlessly.
With each inhale imagine the air filling your lungs with vitality,
And with each exhale release any stagnant energy,
Letting it get carried away.
Now focus on the warmth of the fire within,
The fire,
Your passion,
Your drive,
Your creativity.
Imagine this flame growing and glowing brightly at the centre of your being,
Warming you from within.
This fire is your source of strength,
Fuelling your spirit and your purpose.
Now turn your attention to the water within you,
The blood that flows through your veins,
The fluidity of your emotions,
Like water allowing yourself to flow with life's changes,
Adapting to whatever comes your way.
Feel the water within you cleansing and purifying,
Washing away anything that no longer serves you.
Finally we come to the spirit,
The element that ties all the others together.
Spirit is the life force that flows through everything,
Connecting you to the universe and all living things.
Breathe in this energy and feel it expanding within you,
Uniting all the elements in perfect harmony within.
I invite you to repeat these affirmations after me.
I am grounded by the earth,
Free as the wind,
Fluid like water,
And warm like fire.
I am grounded by the earth,
Free as the wind,
Fluid like the water,
And warm like the fire.
The elements flow within me,
Bringing balance and harmony.
The elements flow within me,
Bringing balance and harmony.
I honour the natural elements and their presence in my life.
I honour the natural elements and their presence in my life.
I invite you now just to feel in,
Into your body.
Feel the balance of the elements within you,
Harmonising,
Supporting your energy.
The earth,
The air,
The fire,
The water,
And spirit,
The alchemy within you.
Take a moment to feel the balance within.
I am now bringing in gratitude,
Gratitude for your life on planet earth,
Gratitude for the elements and all that supports you in your life.
