Get Grounded: Energy Reset With Breath Awareness Meditation

This meditation is an opportunity to surrender to yourself by leaning into intentional breathing. In this meditation, you'll connect with your breath intentionally to help you reset and ground yourself. The first two minutes of the meditation will gently guide you to find a space of comfort and set you up mentally for what to expect once you get deeper into the actual meditation, so you can really lean in, calm the mind, welcome some grounded energy, and leave the meditation feeling interconnected again with yourself, your intuition, and your reality.

Wherever you're at, I want you to go ahead and get comfortable, Get into a space where you're going to be able to be present, Relaxed. This could look like laying down, This could look like sitting up against a wall, But the point is you want to be in a space where your body will physically be very relaxed, Because that's going to allow your mind to be even more relaxed. And that's what's going to allow for you to do exactly what this meditation is intended to do, And that is to get grounded. This is going to be a nice little energy reset with some breath awareness. The breath gives us life. It's something that we all tend to do very unconsciously, So when we take a moment and we do it consciously, It can be really empowering, Because it can remind you how much power you actually have, Especially when you are conscious, You are in tune, You are present. It can be really grounding, It can be really healing and expanding. Oftentimes when our body is really sore and we have aches and illnesses, We breathe very shallowly, So taking time to just be aware with the breath. Not necessarily doing breath work here, But just moving into a deeper state of awareness will create this calm, This moment of peace and presence, Even if it's not calm that you feel, That presence will bring you the clarity and the groundedness you need for whatever you may be going through right now. This meditation is going to be nice, Simple, Sweet, And it's going to help you feel calmer, Feel safer with stillness, And even if you don't find calmness, Maybe you're not coming to this because you seek calmness, But maybe you're just looking to feel more leveled out, More balanced. I think this will help you with that too. Go ahead, Really lean into your seat, Really feel the seat beneath you, Feel your weight settling into that space, Into the seat, Allowing yourself to become really aware of your body, Really present in your body, Let the shoulders sink down, Maybe roll the neck out, Just letting some gentle movement find the body to help it settle in, Help it lean in, Letting the body know we are resetting, We are grounding, Letting the eyes fall closed, Or finding a spot in the room to stare off at, Checking with your jaw, Is it clenched, Do you have your tongue stuck at the roof of your mouth, How can you relax, Let the tongue fall, Let the jaw soften, Check in with the space between your brows, Maybe you allow the brows to soften a little bit more, Beginning to take your attention to the breath, And just feel, Just connect, You don't need to manipulate, Just connect with your inhale, Bringing the awareness to it, Breathing in, Connecting with your exhale, Breathing out, And just find your rhythm here, Because this is about you, This is about connecting deeply with yourself, Connecting with that inhale, And that exhale, As you inhale, Take note of the way that maybe your chest rises, Maybe your belly rises, Letting that breath be deeper, Just seeing naturally how deep you're breathing now that you're present, And your breathing has gone from autopilot, To you being in the driver, To you being in the lead, Yet still co-creating with something that is going to happen naturally, No matter how aware you are, On your exhales, Maybe you notice your shoulders fall a little bit, Maybe you feel a little less tension in the neck, Maybe you notice how your belly sinks in, And how your chest falls with the exhale, And now I want you to start to deepen the breath, Let's play with the breath, Really lead it intentionally, Just like life is always asking of us to do as well, Letting the inhale be a little bit longer, Not forcing anything, Just leaning in a little bit more, Again being a little more intentional, Really letting the belly fill up, Maybe you hold at the top when you feel like you can't breathe in anymore, Just for a moment, Releasing whenever you feel ready, And allowing that exhale to also be a little bit longer, Inhaling, Exhaling, And just be here, Connecting with that intentional inhale, Connecting with that intentional exhale, And really take note of your body, Using the breath to scan, Using the breath to nurture any little tension, Or little pokes you get of pain, Use it to nurture any thoughts, Maybe you notice your mind trailing off, Or some things trailing in, Use the breath to just surrender, Use the breath to lead you back into presence, And to help you not become attached, Letting the breath become a conversation, If any emotions become present, Again use the breath to lead you back into presence, And openness, To help you reset, To help you ground, And help you surrender, And feel, And move through, Whatever is coming up for you, Wherever you're at, Reconnect with the breath, Check in with yourself, How are you feeling, Do you notice anything different in your body, In your mind, I want you to maybe wiggle the toes, Invitation is there to wiggle the fingers, Allowing the body to just really become present as well, Waking back up to life, Letting the eyes come open whenever you feel ready, Just like in this practice, Where you took that moment to lead your breath, And surrender, Oftentimes life will challenge us, We'll move through seasons of growth and healing, That will ask of us to embrace the duality, And just like how you ground it into your breath, How you led it, And used it to help you surrender, To reset, You can do this anytime, Anywhere, It never has to look a certain way, You never have to carve out a crazy amount of space, The very act of just letting the breath be more intentional, Helps put you back in the driver's seat, So no matter what comes your way, No matter what you're going through, How much is on your plate, You don't lose yourself, You don't become consumed by what is outside of you, And instead you know how to come back, You know how to reset, And wherever you're at on your journey, When you find this, Be patient with yourself, Come back to this anytime you need, Practice, Practice, Practice, We are always learning, And we are always growing.
