Let's begin by finding a comfortable position,
Either seated or lying down,
Close your eyes and take a deep,
Slow breath in through your nose.
Close your eyes and exhale fully through your mouth,
Allowing your breath to be slow,
Steady and grounded,
Grounding you into the very present moment that you are in right now.
Feel your body being completely supported by the surface underneath you,
Feeling all the parts of your body connected to this surface,
Whether it's your feet or your bottom,
Wherever your body is touching the surface,
Just being gratitude into these areas for the safety that the earth is providing you.
And with your breath natural,
The in and out flow,
Your body becomes more and more relaxed,
Letting go of the tension in your stomach,
In your shoulders,
In your jaw.
Let everything in your body just be.
Now placing your awareness on your heart.
Imagine that your mind and all the thinking of your human brain and ego begins to drop down into the heart where you fully connect with your higher self,
The inner power and truth of who you are.
And begin to feel your heart chakra expanding and opening.
And as you do this,
Your entire energetic field begins to shift and open as well.
Feeling the aura of your energy expanding outward and opening you up to different realms and dimensions,
Connecting into your true most highest self.
And as you do this,
Asking the ego in the human part of you to step aside for just a moment,
Letting it know that you are safe and secure without the need of being protected.
Thanking it for being a part of your human experience,
But allowing it to just step aside for a moment.
And as your ego steps aside,
Your heart chakra begins to expand even more.
Just breathe into this space of your energy,
Feeling the warmth and expansion of your own energy.
Now let's identify any areas where you have allowed your energy to leak or where you have given your power away to an outside source or thing.
As you are in this safe,
Sacred space of your heart chakra,
Allow your higher self to gently reveal any area in your life where you have given your power away.
This may be a memory,
A situation,
Another person,
Or simply a feeling.
Allow whatever to arise without judgment and just trust what comes to you.
Notice any areas where your energy is flowing outward and not returning back to you.
Is your energy flowing to another person,
Fear,
A belief,
A responsibility or expectation that you're holding on to,
Or maybe something you've outgrown?
Where are you giving your power away in this moment?
As you observe,
Breathe deeply and honor yourself for noticing that these energy leaks are there.
And understanding that awareness is the first step to reclaiming your power.
Now that you have become aware of the areas in which you are giving your power away,
Envision this energy as a cord flowing from you to that source.
Whether it be that situation,
Fear,
Belief,
Person,
Or all of it.
See the cords of attachment to those external sources.
And with love and gratitude for the lessons they are there to teach you,
Come into a place where you are now ready to release the attachment.
Visualize yourself gently holding the cord of these attachments.
Taking a deep breath and as you exhale,
Imagine cutting these cords of attachment to any external sources where you are giving your power away.
Maybe even invite in your spirit team and guides to come help dissolve this cord of attachment,
Gently removing it from you.
And as this cord begins to break and be cut away from your energy,
You feel the energy that you gave away returning to you.
Flowing back into your body like a golden river of light.
And say silently or out loud,
I call my power back to me.
I release what no longer serves me.
And I reclaim my energy fully and completely.
Feel the energy returning,
Filling every cell in your body.
Notice the light of your heart growing stronger and brighter and more radiant.
Returning your life force,
Your truth,
And your sacred power.
Anchor this reclaimed energy into your heart by taking a few deep breaths to let it settle within you.
Now envision a protective golden shield forming around your energy field.
This shield is created from your own light,
Holding the boundary between your energy and the external world.
Know that you are fully empowered to choose where your energy flows.
You are strong,
Sovereign,
And free.
Take a few more deep breaths,
Allowing this sense of empowerment and balance to settle fully into your being.
You can stay in this place as long as you need to to reclaim this energy and build this energetic protection around you.
Carrying it with you the rest of your day and moving forward.
When you're ready,
You can begin to wiggle your fingers and toes,
Bringing awareness back to your physical body.
Slowly opening your eyes and carrying this sense of empowerment with you as you reenter the world.
Remember that you can return to this practice anytime you feel power shifting outward.
You are the master of your energy,
And it is safe to reclaim what is rightfully yours.
Thank you for showing up for yourself today.
You are powerful,
Whole,
And worthy.
