Welcome to your inner flame,
A guided meditation using the elements of the earth for release and renewal.
We will be focusing in on a few different images,
One being a candle that represents yourself,
Your spirit,
Your guiding light.
Before we begin,
Find a position that feels supportive for your body,
Seated or lying down.
There is nothing you need to do perfectly here.
If at any point an image or word doesn't resonate,
You're welcome to let it pass and return to your breath,
Or the feeling of your body being supported and relaxed.
Breathe into your body,
It starts with a step,
An image of your feet on the floor,
Pushing,
Feeling the solidness underneath,
The sensation of satisfaction as you feel each inch of skin on the bottom of your feet push into the ground below.
Now shifting into a deeper image of the center of the earth,
The energy from your pressed feet sending waves of light down,
Down,
Down,
Carrying away everything around and within you that's ready to leave,
The heaviness,
The doubt,
The debris,
The tension from everything you've carried,
It's released now,
It's gone,
Taken by the earth and transformed into something new.
Breathe in,
Breathing in what's built up around you,
The energy that's been growing and collecting dust from the wounds of what doesn't belong to you,
Gather it,
Carry it,
Rock it gently in your arms before you happily drop it all,
Exhaling every last drop of it away.
Breathe in,
Breathing in a golden swirling light that starts in your heart,
Seeing it expand until it surrounds your entire body,
Warm and soft love that carries away your hurt,
That melts away any energy that no longer serves you.
See this light turn into a beautiful candle out in front of you,
A candle that represents your spirit,
Your inner wisdom,
Your life force,
Watch it expand with your heart,
The flame is now so powerful,
Just like you,
This flame is your guiding light.
What does it want you to know today?
What does it want you to feel?
Don't seek the answers,
Take a few moments and let them come to you as a feeling,
A word,
An image,
Anything,
There's no right way for this to show up.
As you look deeper into the flame,
You're now transported somewhere new,
Looking around,
You see a beautiful outdoor space just for you,
Feel this place recharge you the moment you land here,
All the elements,
Earth,
Water,
Air,
Fire,
The earth grounding you,
The water cleansing,
Purifying,
The air renewing,
The fire creating power and heat,
You've got everything you need,
You can spend as much time here as you need.
When you're ready,
Return to the image of the candle and send it a thank you,
Feeling its gratitude and return,
Returning to the thought of your feet,
Your hands,
Thanking your body for supporting you in this,
Noticing the weight of your body again,
The support beneath you,
The steadiness of the ground,
Taking your time to return to wakefulness,
Opening your eyes as you feel ready to,
And taking this sense of grounding and renewal with you into the rest of your day,
Sending you so much love from my heart to yours,
Namaste.
