Find a comfortable seated or lying position.
Allow your hands to rest naturally.
And gently close your eyes.
Take a slow breath in.
And a long breath out.
Again,
Inhale deeply.
And exhale completely.
With each breath,
Allow yourself to arrive more fully in the present moment.
Now bring your awareness to the weight of your body.
Feel where you touch the floor,
Chair or bed.
Sense the solidity of your bones,
Muscles and tissues.
Imagine a warm golden brown light filling your legs,
Hips,
And lower body.
This is the element of Earth.
Earth is stability.
Earth is strength.
Earth is belonging.
Silently repeats.
I am grounded.
I am supported.
I am safe within myself.
Feel yourself rooted.
I'm steady.
And pause here for a few breaths.
Now bring your awareness to your blood yourselves.
And the fluids moving throughout your body.
Imagine a soft,
Silver-blue light flowing through you like a peaceful river.
This is the element of water.
Water is adaptability.
Water is filling.
Water is healing.
Allow any emotions to move freely without resistance.
And silently repeat.
I flow with life.
I welcome my feelings.
I allow healing to move through me.
Feel yourself becoming fluid,
Open and receptive.
And pause.
Now bring your awareness to your solar plexus.
The area just above your navel.
Imagine a radiant golden flame glowing there.
Not a destructive fire,
But a warm,
Steady fire.
This is the element of fire.
Fire is vitality.
Fire is Koresh.
Fire is transformation.
Feel this flame energizing every cell in your body.
And silently repeat.
I honour my power.
I act with courage.
I transform what no longer serves me.
Feel warmed.
Confidence and purpose awakening within you.
And pulse.
Bring your awareness to your breath.
Notice the effortless movement of air entering your body.
And leaving your body.
Imagine a soft emerald or white light surrounding your chest and lungs.
This is the element of air.
Air is freedom.
There is clarity.
Air is inspiration.
With each inhale,
Invite fresh possibilities.
And with each exhale,
Release mental tension.
And silently repeat.
My mind is clear,
My heart is open.
I welcome new perspectives.
Feel a spaciousness within and around you.
And pause here for a few breaths.
Now become aware of the space that contains all the elements.
The space within your body.
The space between your thoughts.
The vast awareness that observes everything.
Imagine a luminous violet or starlit light.
Surrounding and permeating.
Your entire body.
This is the element of space.
Spacious consciousness.
Space is presence.
Space is unity.
And silently repeat.
I am open.
I am aware.
I am connected to all life.
And rest here for several breaths.
Allow yourself to simply be.
Now see earth,
Water,
Fire,
Air and space as five beautiful lights within you.
Earth at your foundation,
Water flowing through you,
Fire glowing at your centre,
Air moving through your breath,
Space surrounding and containing it all.
Watch these elements come into perfect balance.
None overpowering another,
Each supporting the whole.
Feel yourself as a living expression of harmony.
And silently affirm.
Earth studies me.
Water nourishes me.
Fire empowers me.
Air inspires me.
Space connects me.
I am balance.
I am whole.
Allow yourself to rest in this feeling for a few breaths.
Now take a deep breath in.
And slowly exhale.
Feel your body.
Feel your breath.
Feel the balance you have cultivated within.
Know that these elements are always present,
Always available and always seeking harmony.
Take one final deep breath.
When you are ready.
Gently open your eyes.
Carry this balance into the rest of your day,
Moving through the world with steadiness,
Flow,
Vitality,
Clarity and presence.
