And welcome to this beautiful chakra meditation.
Just a short meditation to bring you inward and to bring the awareness to your chakras,
The colors that they hold and the meanings they have.
Let's begin.
Find a comfortable place to sit.
Let your hands rest by your side and close your eyes.
Let's begin with three breaths.
The first breath is in through the nose all the way in,
Filling the chest.
And out through your mouth,
Letting a sigh go as the air leaves.
And let the air drop all the way out from your deep belly.
Second breath.
Slower this time.
In through your nose.
Feeling your belly rise like a wave.
Hold it at the very top for just a moment.
And out through your mouth,
Long and soft,
Blowing all the air out.
And third breath,
The deepest one.
In through your nose,
Filling your belly.
Your ribs,
Your chest,
And take a pause here.
And out through the mouth slowly,
Letting go of everything that you've been carrying.
Now let your breath find its own rhythm.
Breathing in and breathing out.
And we'll begin at the root,
At the very base of your spine.
This is your root chakra.
Imagine a ball of light there,
A deep,
Steady red.
Let it glow.
It's warm and it's still.
The root is about being here,
Your safety,
Your belonging,
The simple truth that you are allowed to take up space on this earth.
And when your root is steady,
We feel held.
Even when life is not.
Picture roots growing down from that red light.
Reaching deep into the ground,
Wrapping around the earth under the ground.
You are safe.
You are held.
You belong here.
Feel energy rising up through the root and settling back down into the earth and let your body sink.
Now moving up just below your belly button.
This is your sacral chakra.
Imagine a ball of light,
A warm glowing orange,
Soft and flowing like water.
The sacral is about feeling.
It's about the faith that life can still be good.
It's about your feminine power.
It's also where we allow pleasure,
Softness,
And movement.
Let that orange light ripple through your hips like a slow tide.
Feel the energy flowing up through it and washing back down.
Nothing to hold on to,
Just let it flow.
Now let's move up to the soft space between your ribs,
Just under your breastbone.
This is your solar plexus chakra.
Imagine a ball of light,
A golden yellow,
Bright as sunlight on a summer morning.
This is your will,
Your fire,
Your creativity,
Your courage to keep moving even when it's hard.
It is the part of you that says,
I am still here.
Let that golden light warm you from within.
Feel energy rising up through it and glowing back down,
Steady and calm.
Now move to the center of your chest.
This is your heart chakra.
Imagine a ball of light,
A soft living green,
Like new leaves in the spring.
The heart is love,
Love given and love received.
It's where we feel connection and where we feel the missing of somebody we love.
Imagine it opening slowly like petals unfolding.
Feeling the energy flowing up through your heart and gently down.
There is room for all of it here.
Whatever you carry,
Let it be held.
Now let's move up to your throat.
This is your throat chakra.
Imagine a ball of light.
Clear sky blue.
The throat is your voice.
It's your truth.
It's the things you want to say and haven't yet.
It's where we let ourselves be hurt.
Picture a gentle wind moving through,
Loosening anything that's been held back.
Feel energy rising up through your throat and softly down.
Let it be easy.
Now move to the space between your brows.
This is your third eye chakra.
Imagine a ball of light,
A deep indigo like the sky just before the stars appear.
The third eye is your intuition.
Your inner knowing,
The quiet part of you that sees beyond what's in front of you.
Imagine a calm pool of dark water.
And you are simply looking in.
Feel that energy flowing up through the center and gently down.
Let yourself see.
Now moving to the very top of your head.
Up to the crown chakra.
Imagine a ball of light.
The violet turning to white,
Open and wide.
The crown is your connection to something bigger than you.
It's spirit.
It's source.
It's the light we all share.
Imagine the sky opening above you and the light pouring in,
Soft and endless.
Feel the energy rising through the crown and flowing back down.
Moving all the way down.
Through every center,
Violet,
Indigo,
Blue,
Green.
Gold,
Orange,
Red.
And the Earth rising back up to meet it.
Light coming down,
The earth rising up.
Let's take a nice deep breath here.
In through the nose.
And out through the mouth.
And know that you can come back to these chakras whenever you need.
You can come back to this meditation whenever you need to go inward.
And let the magic of those chakras work through your body,
Flowing up and flowing down.
Beautiful.
When you're ready,
You can gently move your fingertips and your toes.
And gently open your eyes.
