Hi,
My name is Nora.
I have been practicing Pilates for a couple of years and the teacher always reminds us to strengthen our core during the exercises.
It's actually very important to rely on our core strength,
Not just to perform the moves more easily but also to protect our back,
Arms and other muscles from injury.
As I have been building and working on my physical core strength over the years,
Something suddenly clicked.
The core is the sacral chakra,
A few inches below the belly button,
The womb.
And it is not only for women,
The sacral chakra exists in all of us,
Men and women.
It is referred to as the womb because the womb is the highest form of power and creation.
It is where life begins,
Where the unmanifest becomes manifest,
Where the first heartbeat emerges from nothingness into existence.
This is the power of your core.
It is your center.
It is from here that you can rebirth yourself again and again and again.
If life strips you of everything,
Come back to your core and create.
It is always within you,
No matter what.
No one can take it away.
It is your birthright.
So,
Let's begin.
Take a long,
Deep,
Low breath in from your core and ask yourself,
Who am I?
Who am I at my core?
Who I think I am when I attach all the labels,
Identities and beliefs?
Who am I when I free myself?
When I detach from all those layers?
When I remove the labels and titles?
Who is left at my core?
Who am I?
I invite you to place one hand on your sacral chakra and breathe from there a deep,
Low breath from your core,
Feel your belly,
Feel your hand rising and falling.
Who is breathing?
Who is the I?
Who is the I?
Take another long,
Deep,
Low breath in,
Belly up from your core and hold.
Watch your breath.
Who breathed you into existence?
And now,
Place your other hand in front of your mouth.
Release with an open mouth.
Feel the heat from your breath,
The fire of creation.
From the unmanifest to the manifest.
What do you want to do with this fire of creation?
What do you want to create in your life?
Take another deep breath in,
Low breath from your core,
Feel your belly and hold.
Ask yourself,
What is triggering you the most?
What behavior you judge,
That part that you don't like?
It is your mirror.
It is a part of you.
It is,
In fact,
The most powerful part of you that is waiting to be expressed.
Keep breathing low,
Long,
Deep inhales from your core and watch your breath moving inside of you.
Where is it going?
Which part of your body is it landing in?
Is it painful?
Is it uncomfortable?
Accept it.
Love it.
Send more love to that part that you always judged or rejected.
And as you exhale,
Feel the heat coming from your core,
Warming you from within,
And hold.
Watch your breath expanding into the space around you,
Creating an aura that surrounds your body in orange light,
The power of your being and creation.
Your clarity like a sun,
Your core determination,
Your power to transmute energy,
To transform it to the depth of your soul,
The light beyond light.
Inhale this clarity,
Low breathing,
All the way down to your core and hold.
What infinite possibilities did you just breathe into your room,
Into your sacral space?
Can you see a new path,
A new possibility that you couldn't see before?
What do you need clarity about?
What is that that you didn't see or you didn't like about this part?
Let your breath go where it needs to shine more light.
Watch it.
Allow it.
Trust it.
It is the gift of your unique identity.
And as you release your breath,
Release the birth of manifested answers.
Trust your unconscious knows all the answers.
Keep breathing low,
Deep inhales from your core.
And ask yourself,
What do you need to express?
What actions do you need to take or to not take?
What have you been waiting for and always wanted to do?
This is your reminder to the freedom of expression,
To love yourself even more.
Inhale deeply from your core and allow yourself to feel.
Feel whatever comes up,
Fear,
Anger,
And anxiety.
Experience it,
Fully experience it,
Even if it is challenging,
Even if it is uncomfortable.
You are always supported and centered in your core.
Allow these emotions to swirl around you.
You are still centered,
Unmoving at your core.
You can always return to your center.
Return to your core.
This is your transmutation of energy from your core.
Allow yourself to hear every voice,
Every fear,
Every emotion,
Every potential.
Instead of resisting,
Instead of running,
Connect with your core.
Be here,
Fully conscious,
Trusting in your full power.
Inhale low,
Deep breath from your core.
This is your greatest chance to bring here on earth the greatest gift of being at your full potential.
Feel and embody the energy of the potential that you are choosing now.
Around you all infinite possibilities,
All possibilities,
Everything that could ever be.
Bring it all in.
It is all there waiting for you to manifest,
To be.
Feel it.
This is a wonderful new opportunity to be what you choose to be.
To create this magical world we live in.
To live in your own creation.
Live in this matter.
A beautiful creation,
Your own garden of Eden.
Love this potential.
Love every part of you even more.
Feel it.
However you choose it to be.
Be joyful.
Be grateful.
Totally,
Immensely,
Extraordinary grateful.
Be ecstatic.
It's all within.
It always has been.
Continue to inhale low,
Deep breath from your core and embrace the process.
What if,
What if you are so bold,
So courageous,
What if you allow yourself to fall in love with you,
With being alive,
Without worrying or trying to control it.
Without trying to determine in your mind now what it is supposed to look like.
Fall in love with yourself.
Expand.
This is your time to live,
To be free.
What an incredible opportunity to tell your story.
To show the world the story of how you surrender to the love of yourself.
No ifs,
Shoulds or buts.
What an incredible journey.
And now you can return to your normal,
Natural breathing.
It is done.
It is done.
It is done.
Take a moment to thank yourself.
Thank your womb of creation for the power of creation.
The power of clarity.
The power of rebirth.
The power of transmutation.
The power of now.
The power of your breath.
You are the breath in the breath.
You were manifested from the breath of the creator.
And with each breath,
You create a new possibility,
A new expression.
What do you choose to express now?
May you always come back to your core,
Come back to your center.
May you always feel,
Express,
And act from your core.
May you always be supported by your core.
Namaste.
