So,
Today I brought the theme,
Meditation for motivation.
And motivation in yoga energetically,
We bring it from the third energetic center of our bodies,
The third chakra,
The solar plexus chakra,
In Sanskrit,
Manipura.
This center is located in the stomach,
In the center of the stomach.
This is our inner sun.
This chakra is responsible to manage emotions.
So,
This is our motivator in our bodies.
This is related to willpower.
This is related to self-confidence.
This chakra is related to overcoming our fears and giving us courage to thrive in life,
To go further.
So,
I invite you to meditate with me today,
This morning,
On the solar plexus chakra.
Please find your comfortable seated position.
Find the position for your hands.
Adjust your back.
Make your lower back comfortable,
Relaxed.
Relax your face muscles.
Relax your jaw.
Relax your shoulders.
Relax your shoulders.
Start to inhale through your nose.
Feel the cool of the air passing through your nostrils.
Exhale through your mouth.
Take deep inhalations.
Bring your awareness to your inner breath,
To your breath cycles.
Feel the movements of the chest expanding in each inhalation.
Allow yourself to melt in this present moment,
To be right here,
Right now.
Allow yourself to benefit from this moment,
From this meditation.
Inhale,
Bring your shoulders slightly back.
Exhale,
Relax your shoulders.
Going deeper and deeper in this relaxation mode.
Bring the tip of your tongue up in the sky of your mouth,
Close to your teeth.
Allow your inhalations to happen only through your nose.
Inhale,
Feel freshness passing through your nostrils and throat.
Exhale,
Notice the air a bit warmer.
This makes you more relaxed,
More in tune.
Inhale and exhale.
Surrender to this present moment.
Now,
Dear ones,
We are going to start to connect with our solar plexus,
Manipura chakra,
By chanting the mantra of this chakra,
A very powerful activating mantra,
Ram.
So I will do it once,
Then we are going to do it together.
Basically you are going to inhale through your nose.
Ram.
Very well,
I invite you to do with me all together.
Three,
Two,
One,
Inhale.
Ram.
Inhale.
Ram.
One last time,
Inhale.
Ram.
Inhale,
Exhale normally.
Enjoy the vibrations,
The energy,
The feelings.
Maybe the area of your solar plexus,
Your chest is tingling.
Just observe and start to visualize a dot in your stomach,
A dot of light,
Like a star,
Growing,
Shining and expanding.
The color is yellow,
Very vivid.
This dot is expanding and becoming a star inside of your stomach area.
Inhale and let your inner sun expand.
In each inhalation you allow this light to involve all your thorax area.
This is a calm energy that is now unfolding,
Happening to you in your meditation.
Let your solar plexus shine rays of light like the sun throughout all your body.
Expanding your consciousness,
Bringing more awareness about your willpower.
Let this energy burn like a fire.
Inhale and stimulate this energy,
This fire to come out from you and expand into your chest,
Illuminating your heart with courage,
With a sense of self-confidence,
Where you want to thrive in life,
You want to go further,
Where you want to overcome all the challenges and circumstances that are preventing you to become your best version.
Let your inner sun shine bright and illuminate all your body from inside out.
Inhale this light,
This power and exhale your own light.
Inhale light,
Exhale light and shine bright as a star promoted by your Manipura chakra,
Your solar plexus chakra.
Let this energy involve all your body,
Creating a sphere of light,
Surround yourself and become the sun itself.
You are your own sun,
Your own star.
From this powerful energy,
Directly from your center of vitality you spread throughout your place.
Your inner sun-fire is expanding and promoting an expansion of light that takes all your home,
Purifying all your house atmosphere directly from the center of power,
Your solar plexus,
Illuminate and expand all this energy into your place.
Now bring your awareness into your chakra as you could see inside,
As you could travel,
Could make an inner journey into it and visualize the sun itself,
Powerful,
Full of vitality,
Confidence.
Dive into the sun,
Into your chakra and remove all the sense of shame or guilt.
Let these feelings burn in your Manipura energy.
This energy is so powerful that is transcending every feeling or energy that doesn't serve you anymore.
Throw everything that you don't want into this sun,
Into this fire.
This is the energy of the relationship with yourself.
Prefy,
Prefy your chest.
Forgive everything that you need in your life.
Remove all the emotions that no longer serve you.
Make yourself lighter,
Remove everything from your chest and let it burn,
The fire of sun.
Yellow is the color,
Yellow is the color that's gonna purify all your feelings and emotions,
Giving you strength and power to overcome anything that prevents you to become your best version.
Breathe in this light.
Exhale self-confidence,
Self-esteem,
Self-image as you are powerful as a lion.
Inhale light.
Exhale confidence,
Self-esteem and inner power.
Embrace your inner power.
Consciously embody your sense of value in the world.
You are a powerful being and many people are inspired by you.
You may not see it,
But you are inspiring and motivating so many people in your life by just being who you are.
Meditate at this powerful energy coming from your solar plexus chakra.
Visualize this vivid yellow vibrating and bringing you inner power,
A strong sense of power,
Confidence,
Self-awareness.
I can.
I can.
As we are arriving in the final moments of this meditation,
I invite you to take deep breaths in through your nose,
Exhale through your mouth.
Inhale direct air into your belly,
Into your stomach,
Refreshing the fire.
Exhale.
Bring your left hand into your stomach and take inhalations through your nose,
Exhale through your mouth.
Inhale through your nose,
Exhale through your mouth.
Relax,
Relax even further,
Even more and more.
Let it go.
Wonderful.
Bring your hands together in a prayer gesture.
This is Anjali Mudra.
I invite you to make an intention for your day,
For your week or for your life.
Visualize what you want to accomplish.
See yourself happy receiving all the blessings from the universe.
Now you may rub your hands and create some friction,
Some temperature,
Some energy.
Place your hands over your eyes,
Take a deep breath in,
Exhale.
Remove your hands as you gaze the floor,
Open your eyes,
Slowly,
Gently come back.
