Welcome to this chakra cleanse meditation.
To begin,
Soften yourself as you take a comfortable position,
Whether you're sitting or lying down,
Allow yourself to settle deeply,
Gently.
And when you're ready,
You can gently close your eyes if it feels safe to do so,
Or soften the gaze.
Bring your awareness now to your breath,
And begin with a long,
Slow,
Deep inhale.
Take it all the way to the top,
Hold gently for the count of three,
And then exhale slowly.
Another inhale,
And then an exhale.
On the next inhale,
Picture the air filling your belly,
Hold it again at the top,
And then softly release the breath,
Allowing the body to soften with it,
The shoulders to drop,
The jaw to relax,
And rest.
Now you can picture roots coming from the soles of your feet,
Or the base of your spine,
And these roots move down to the earth beneath you,
Deep down through all the different layers of rock and soil.
Deep down,
They come into an underground cave,
And there's a lake in the center of this cave,
Beautiful,
Sparkling water.
Allow your intuition to pick the color of the water,
And watch as your roots dive deep below the surface.
Whatever color you chose,
Now forms a light that moves up through your roots,
Travels all the way up,
Out of the cave,
Through all the layers,
Up,
Up,
Where it comes to rest the soles of your feet.
You may feel a soft tingle,
Or a sense of warmth.
Now we're going to bring this light all the way up through our body,
So now picture this light moving up over your feet,
Your ankles,
Your shins and calves,
The fronts and backs of your knees,
Your thighs,
Into your hips and pelvis,
Your waist,
Ribs,
Chest,
All the way up to the tops of your shoulders,
Sweeping across your collarbone.
The light then moves down your upper arms,
Down to your elbows,
Your forearms,
Your wrists,
Palms and fingers.
Now take a deep inhale,
And let it out softly.
The light now moves up your throat and neck,
Sweeping across your jaw,
Softening any tension here,
Moves up over your chin,
Your lips,
Your nose,
Your cheeks,
Your ears,
Feel the tingle as it moves over your eyelashes,
Eyelids,
Eyebrows,
Over your forehead,
And then it flows over the curve of your skull,
Down the back of your head where it comes to rest at the top of your spine.
Now for your next few inhales and exhales,
Picture this light growing and expanding,
Forming a cocoon around you,
And know that inside this soft warm light you are protected and nurtured.
We'll begin with the earth star chakra,
So bring your awareness down below your feet about a foot or so beneath you,
And imagine a soft smoky gold star resting in the earth,
Steady and ancient.
This energy centre supports deep grounding,
Safety in your body and a sense of belonging on the earth.
As you breathe in,
See the earth star begin to glow,
And as you breathe out,
Imagine any sticky energy loosening,
Like heavy dust lifting off and sinking down into the soil to be composted and transformed,
Let the earth receive it without effort,
You don't need to name any of the energy that's loosening and falling away,
Just know that the light knows exactly what to take away.
Your chakras now glowing brighter,
Spinning faster,
And to seal in this cleansed energy,
Quietly say to yourself,
I am held,
I belong here,
The earth supports me.
Now draw your awareness up to the base of your spine,
To where your root chakra sits.
Visualise a deep red ember,
Warm and steady,
Beginning to spin.
The root chakra governs your energy,
And as you breathe in,
Imagine a soft warm light and stability,
Security,
Home,
Money and your right to feel safe.
With each inhale the red grows clearer and brighter,
And with each exhale any fear,
Tension or survival stress slides away like thick mud rinsing clean,
Flowing down your grounding roots deep into the earth.
Now the affirmation to seal the root chakra,
I am safe,
I am steady,
I am supported.
I am safe,
I am steady,
I am supported.
Now softly lift your awareness to your lower belly,
Just below the navel to the sacral chakra.
Picture a gentle orange tide,
Like warm water catching candlelight,
Spinning smoothly.
The sacral governs emotions,
Creativity,
Pleasure,
Sensuality and healthy boundaries.
Breathe in and let the orange become luminous.
Breathe out and release any guilt,
Numbness or emotional heaviness,
And watch that old residue dissolve into clear water and flow away deep into the earth below.
And your affirmation for the sacral chakra,
I allow myself to feel,
I create with ease,
I honor my boundaries,
I allow myself to feel,
I create with ease,
I honor my boundaries.
Now bring your awareness to the upper belly,
To the solar plexus chakra.
Picture a golden sun,
Bright but gentle,
Spinning in your center.
The solar plexus governs confidence,
Personal power,
Self-worth and choice.
As you inhale let that sun expand,
Warming you from the inside.
When you exhale,
Let any sticky self-doubt,
Shame or overthinking,
Peel away like an old label lifting cleanly from glass.
Watch as the golden sun spins faster,
Shines brighter and grows more luminous.
And your affirmation is,
I trust myself,
I choose what is right for me,
I am enough.
I trust myself,
I choose what is right for me,
I am enough.
And now we take a moment to gently bring our awareness down to the earth star chakra.
Smoky gold star,
Luminous and bright.
Our cleansed and sealed root chakra next,
Red,
Alive.
The orange of our sacral chakra,
Spinning,
Clear.
And then back to the solar plexus,
A warm golden sun,
Bright and luminous.
Now we move a little higher to your chest where the heart chakra lies.
Imagine a soft green light like a forest at dawn.
As your heart chakra spins open,
Full of kindness.
The heart chakra governs love,
Compassion,
Grief,
Forgiveness and connection.
Breathe in and let the green soften and widen.
Breathe out and release any tightness,
Old hurt or any guardedness.
And as if a knot gently untying itself,
Watch the threads fall loose.
If emotion rises,
Let it be welcome.
And as always,
There's nothing to fix,
Nothing to judge.
And now the affirmation to seal your heart chakra.
My heart is open in safe ways.
I give and receive with ease.
Bring your awareness now to the throat and the throat chakra.
And now you see a clear sky blue wheel of light,
Spinning smoothly like a calm breeze.
The throat governs compassion,
Love,
And forgiveness.
The heart chakra governs communication,
Truth,
Expression and being heard.
So as you inhale,
Feel space open in the throat and jaw.
On the exhale,
Let any swallowed words,
Tension or fear of being seen melt away like ice turning to water flowing down your roots into the earth.
As the chakra opens and spins even faster,
You may feel the need to swallow.
Clear your throat.
And now the affirmation,
I speak my truth with kindness.
My voice matters.
Now bring your awareness to the space between your brows,
The third eye chakra.
Visualize a deep indigo night skylight,
Calm and luminous,
Filled with stars,
Spinning with clarity.
As you open this chakra,
You may feel a soft tingle between the brows.
The third eye governs our intuition,
Insight,
Imagination and inner guidance.
Breathe in and let the indigo become crisp and clear,
The stars brighter.
And on the breath out,
Know that you're releasing mental fog,
Confusion or borrowed beliefs.
Watch them disappear like mist lifting from a lake.
And now we'll seal the chakra with the affirmation of,
I trust my inner knowing.
I see clearly.
I trust my inner knowing.
I see clearly.
Now lift your awareness to the top of your head,
To where the crown chakra sits.
Picture a violet white lotus opening,
Or a soft halo of light,
Spinning gently.
The crown governs our connection to spirit,
Higher wisdom and meaning and trust in life.
As you inhale,
Feel the crown open in a way that feels safe and comfortable for you.
As you exhale,
Any heaviness,
Doubt or disconnection lifts away like ash carried upward on a warm current.
Let a quiet sense of guidance settle in.
Soften even deeper with your breath.
And your affirmation is,
I am connected.
I am guided.
I am exactly where I need to be.
I am connected.
I am guided.
I am exactly where I need to be.
I am exactly where I need to be.
Picture all of your chakras.
They're aligned like a column of light from the earth star all the way up to the crown.
See them spinning in harmony,
Each one bright,
Clean and sealed.
You may feel lightness more in one chakra than another.
You may feel warmth,
Slightly tender.
As always,
There's nothing to fix,
Nothing to judge.
And now we're going to gently close the chakras back to their normal cycle.
Close your eyes and we'll begin with a crown chakra.
And all you need to do is picture it gently slowing.
The light softening.
Then move down to the third eye again.
As the spinning slows,
The light softens.
Throat chakra.
The golden sun of your solar plexus slowing,
Softening.
The sacral.
And then the earth star chakra.
The smoky gold star dimming slightly,
Slowing down.
For your next three rounds of breath,
Let your body move slowly with the inhale and the exhale and allow your energy to settle back into your body.
If it feels right,
Place a hand on your heart or your belly and whisper to yourself,
I return to myself.
I am here.
I am whole.
I return to myself.
I am here.
I am whole.
When it feels right to do so,
Gently move your fingers and toes.
Reconnect with where your body is being supported.
Gently flutter your eyes open.
Return to the room.
You might like to take another couple of deep inhales and exhales.
And thank you for joining me.
Have a wonderful day.
