Hi everyone.
Welcome,
And thank you for joining me today.
My name is Shannon.
I'm a certified mindfulness teacher,
A Reiki master,
And a mental health advocate,
And my pronouns are she and her.
I'm coming to you today from Campbell River,
British Columbia,
Canada,
And I would like to respectfully acknowledge the unceded traditional territory of the Ligwilda people,
The Wewekai,
The Wewekum,
And the Kaweka First Nations.
Thank you for allowing us to reside and thrive here.
Today I invite you to join me in this transformative journey as we dive into the essence of chakra balancing and realignment,
A journey towards harmony,
Healing,
And personal transformation.
Let's begin.
I invite you to find a comfortable position where you will not be disturbed for the duration of the session.
This may be setting up or laying down.
Whatever feels most comfortable for you in this moment.
Please gently go ahead and close your eyes and bring your attention to your breath.
Now I ask you to imagine the seven chakra energy centers as spinning wheels of light,
Each responsible for specific aspects of your physical,
Emotional,
And spiritual well-being.
We will begin by looking at the root chakra,
Which is located at the base of the spine near the tailbone.
The color that's connected with this chakra is red,
And it is associated with feelings of security,
Stability,
And being grounded.
It relates to our basic survival needs,
Such as shelter,
Food,
And safety.
I invite you to visualize a vibrant red energy at the base of your spine.
See this energy spinning and expanding,
Grounding you to the earth.
Repeat the following affirmations silently or out loud.
I am safe.
I am secure.
I am rooted in the present moment.
I invite you now to breathe in through your nose and exhale out through your mouth.
Next,
We move to the sacral chakra,
Which is located in the lower abdomen,
Just a few inches below the navel.
It governs our emotions,
Our creativity,
And our sexuality.
It is linked to our ability to experience pleasure and passion.
Imagine a warm orange glow filling the space.
Envision the energy swirling and flowing freely,
And repeat these affirmations.
I embrace creativity.
I honor my emotions,
And I am connected to my sensuality.
And we'll take another breath in through your nose and exhale out through your mouth.
Now we move to the solar plexus chakra,
Which is located in the upper abdomen,
In between the navel and the sternum.
The color associated with this chakra is yellow.
It is concerned with personal power,
Self-esteem,
And confidence.
It influences our self-worth and our ability to take control of our lives.
Visualize a bright yellow light radiating from this area,
Spreading vitality and confidence throughout your body,
And repeat these affirmations.
I am empowered.
I am confident.
I am worthy of success.
And another breath in through your nose and exhale out through your mouth.
Next we move to the heart chakra,
Which is located in the center of the chest.
The color associated with this chakra is green.
Sometimes it's also depicted as pink.
This chakra is associated with love,
Compassion,
And emotional balance.
It connects our physical and spiritual aspects and fosters empathy and forgiveness.
Imagine a bright green light expanding from this area of your heart,
Filling your chest with love and compassion,
And repeat these affirmations.
I am love.
I am compassion.
I am open to giving and receiving love.
And here we'll take another deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth.
Now we move to the throat chakra.
The color associated with this chakra is blue.
It governs communication,
Self-expression,
And speaking one's truth.
It relates to clear,
Honest,
And authentic expression.
Visualize a soothing blue light flowing in and out of this area,
Facilitating clear communication and self-expression.
And repeat these affirmations.
I speak my truth.
I express myself with authenticity.
My words are filled with kindness.
We'll take another breath in through your nose and exhale out through your mouth.
Next we move to the third eye chakra,
Which is located in the center of the forehead,
Just above the space between the eyebrows.
And the color associated with this chakra is indigo or deep blue.
It's associated with our intuition,
Our insight,
And our inner wisdom.
It's linked to our ability to perceive beyond the physical realm.
Imagine an indigo light radiating from this point in your forehead,
Enhancing your intuition and your inner wisdom.
And repeat these affirmations.
I trust my intuition.
I am connected to my own inner guidance.
And I see beyond appearances.
Another breath in through your nose.
And exhale out through your mouth.
Now we move to the final chakra,
Which is the crown chakra.
It's located at the top of your head or just slightly above it.
And the color associated with this chakra is violet or white.
It is concerned with spiritual connection,
Enlightenment,
And universal consciousness.
It represents our connection to the divine and higher states of awareness.
Visualize a pure white light emanating from this area,
Connecting you to the divine and expanding your consciousness.
Repeat these affirmations.
I am connected to the universal energy.
I am one with the infinite.
I am divinely guided.
Now I invite you to take three cleansing breaths in through your nose and exhale out through your mouth.
Envision all of your chakras aligned and harmonized.
Feel the energy flow throughout your entire being fully and clearly.
We'll take one more deep breath together in through the nose.
And exhale out through your mouth.
Now I invite you to share in a gesture of gratitude that works for you.
These can be hands to your heart,
Hands together in prayer,
Or touching the earth on which you practice.
I invite you to go ahead and wiggle your fingers and your toes.
Slowly open your eyes and reorient yourself to the room that you're in.
I thank you for taking this time for yourself today and for practicing with me.
Namaste.
