Welcome.
To this guided meditation designed to help balance the body's energy centres.
These energy centres are known as chakras.
When the chakras are balanced,
Life force energy.
Is thought to be able to flow more freely throughout the body.
Helping to release tension.
Promote a clear mind.
And encourage a more positive outlook on life.
As you settle into this meditation.
Allow yourself to move away from the outside world.
And turn your attention inward.
Close your eyes and gently take a slow,
Deep breath in.
Feel your stomach rise and your ribs expand.
And gently release that breath,
Breathing out any tension.
Continue breathing in a way that is natural.
And comfortable for you.
With each breath,
Allow yourself to become more relaxed.
There is nowhere you need to be right now and nothing that you need to do.
Just continue to inhale.
And exhale.
If thoughts come into your mind,
Just let them float past.
They do not require your attention right now.
Just bring your focus back to the breath.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Inhale.
Exhale.
As you bring your awareness to the base of your spine.
Your root chakra.
The root connects you to the earth,
Giving you strength and stability.
Begin to imagine a ball of red light gently glowing in the base of your spine.
The vibrant red light makes you feel safe and secure.
This is your connection to the Earth.
This red light.
Is helping you to be anchored in the present moment.
With each inhale,
The red ball of light begins to get stronger.
With each exhale,
Your body feels more relaxed.
Spend a few moments breathing into the root chakra.
Feeling the red light getting stronger and expanding throughout your whole body.
Ground in you.
Making you feel secure.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in and gently exhale.
Say to yourself.
I am safe.
I am secure.
Now take your awareness to your lower abdomen.
Just below the belly button.
This is your sacral chakra.
The energy for your creativity.
And emotional expression.
Imagine a glowing ball of orange light just below the belly button.
With each inhale,
The orange light grows stronger.
And brighter.
With each exhale,
You feel lighter.
Keep breathing in and out as you imagine this orange light flowing across your abdomen.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in.
And gently exhale.
Say to yourself,
I allow life to flow freely through me.
Take your awareness to your upper abdomen.
Your solar plexus chakra.
This is your powerhouse,
Your confidence and inner strength.
Imagine a ball of bright yellow light shining over your solar plexus.
With each inhale,
The yellow light gets brighter.
With each exhale,
Your inner strength rises like the sun.
Spend a few moments seeing the yellow light getting brighter,
Warming you,
Filling you with confidence.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in and gently exhale.
Say to yourself,
I am confident and strong.
Now focus on your chest.
Your heart chakra.
Your ability to show compassion and love.
See a ball of green light in your heart space.
Imagine it getting bigger.
And stronger.
Expanding out across your chest.
With each inhale,
Allow love into your heart.
And with each exhale release any feelings of resentment you may be holding on to.
Spend a few moments seeing the green ball of light growing bigger and expanding over your chest,
Filling you with peace and love.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in.
And gently exhale.
Say to yourself.
I am worthy of receiving love.
Unconditionally.
As you allow your attention to go to your throat.
Your throat chakra,
Your area for communication and truth.
Picture a ball of blue light at the throat.
The blue light begins to grow and as it does you feel your throat loosen and your tongue relax.
With each inhale,
See the ball of blue light spreading across your throat.
Soothe in it.
Allowing you to breathe easily and freely.
With each inhale,
The ball of blue light gets stronger.
Spend a few moments allowing the blue light to grow and expand.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in and gently exhale.
Say to yourself.
I speak with confidence and kindness.
Take your awareness to the space between your eyebrows.
This is your third eye chakra.
The Energy Center for Intuition and Inner Wisdom.
A ball of indigo light starts to glow here.
As it gets bigger,
Feel your mind start to clear.
Any mental noise begins to quieten.
Allow your focus to remain on your third eye.
Seeing the ball of indigo light getting stronger.
Spreading across your forehead,
Bringing a sense of calm.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in.
And gently exhale.
Say to yourself,
I let go of overthinking and trust my inner guidance.
Now focus on the top of your head.
Your crown chakra.
Your centre of awareness and connection to your higher self.
See a ball of violet light just at the crown of your head.
Focus on this ball of light as it grows bigger.
Feel it connecting you to the universe above.
And then feel the light flow down your body.
Into the earth below your feet.
Continue to concentrate on this ball of light,
Feeling it grow with each breath you take.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in.
And gently exhale.
Say to yourself,
I am one with the universe.
Feel all your chakras aligned.
Energy is flowing freely from your root chakra to your crown chakra.
And now it's time to bring your awareness back to the here and now.
Begin to notice any sounds around you.
Start to wiggle your toes.
Wiggle your fingers.
And when you are ready.
Slowly.
Open your eyes.
Peace be with you.
