Good evening.
Tonight.
I invite you to meet a force that lies dormant in the very depths of you.
Curled up at the very bottom of your spine.
Patiently waiting.
For far longer than you can imagine.
It is called Kundalini.
That sacred energy that the ancients depicted as a sleeping serpent.
Coiled at the base of the back.
Waiting for the right moment to rise and illuminate the whole being.
Has it ever happened to you?
After a fit of laughter.
A moment of grace.
Or an overwhelming emotion.
To feel a shiver rise along your back.
Like a warm wave passing through you from bottom to top.
That shiver.
That is her stretching.
Just a little.
For the time of a flash.
But most of the time.
She sleeps.
Compressed by stress.
By fear,
By the habit of holding everything in the lower body.
The awakening of this energy is nothing like a violent or spectacular effort.
Forcing this force would be an ancient error.
Tonight.
We will not rush anything.
We will simply create enough softness and safety within you.
For her to agree of her own accord to slowly unfurl.
And to rise at her own pace.
Chamber after chamber.
Until your whole body becomes a single warm song.
For this awakening to unfold with complete gentleness.
I invite you to listen to this meditation for 30 consecutive nights.
30 nights during which your body will gradually learn to feel safe enough to let this energy flow freely.
And if you fall asleep while listening.
That is perfect.
It is even the sign that everything is working.
Your unconscious meanwhile.
Continues to hear every word.
And carries on the work until morning.
Lie down on your back.
Flat.
As if the entire Earth were supporting you from underneath.
Let your spine stretch gently.
From the nape of your neck down to your coccyx.
And feel each vertebra settle one by one onto the surface that holds it.
Place your two hands,
One on top of the other,
On the lower part of your belly.
Just below the navel.
Where a discreet warmth is waiting to awaken.
Feel the light weight of your hands.
And the roundness of the breath that lifts them.
That lets them fall again.
And when your whole body has found its rest.
Let your eyelids lower effortlessly like the night slowly descending over a valley.
Take a first deep breath.
And as you exhale.
Let your lower back sink a little deeper into the mattress.
A second breath.
And feel your hips open.
Release.
As if they were finally ceasing to carry everything.
A third breath.
And let your lower belly become warm and supple beneath your hands.
You have nothing to hold back.
Nothing to contract.
Nothing to keep.
Your whole body has the right to let go.
Now bring your attention all the way down to the soles of your feet.
Imagine a very gentle warmth settling there.
Like the mildness of ground heated by the sun during the day.
Feel your toes loosen one by one.
The arches of your feet widen.
Your heels become heavy.
This warmth slowly rises into your ankles.
Which loosen.
Than into your calves.
Which melt into the surface.
It reaches your knees.
Releases them.
And continues to rise toward your thighs.
The warmth continues its ascent.
And reaches your pelvis.
That grave and powerful base of the body.
It spreads into your hips.
Into your lower back.
Unties what has become knotted there over the course of the days.
And settles just under your hands.
In the lower part of your belly.
Feel this precise point become warm.
More alive.
Like a small ember glowing softly.
The warmth fills your chest.
Slows your heart.
Opens your shoulders.
And slides into your arms all the way to the tips of your fingers.
It rises further along you.
Smooths your forehead.
And finally comes to rest at the very top of your skull.
Your whole body is now warm.
And trusting.
Crossed from bottom to top by this same softness.
And it is in this trust.
And only in this trust.
That we can begin the journey.
Now imagine that you are standing at the entrance of an underground cave.
Warm and welcoming.
You enter without the slightest fear.
For this place has always been yours.
The air is mild and mineral.
Pleasant to breathe.
And a diffuse light emanates from the walls themselves.
The walls are lined with minerals that shine faintly.
Like thousands of tiny stars buried in the rock.
And with each step.
The warm floor seems to recognize and receive you.
From very far away.
Deep inside.
Rise as a regular dripping sound.
Slow.
Soothing.
Marking time like a heart beating beneath the mountain.
In the very depths of the cave.
You discover a strange river.
A river made of liquid light.
Gentle and slow.
Flowing in silence.
You lean over.
And you let your hand brush its surface.
A delicious warmth immediately travels up your arm.
This river is not an ordinary river.
It is the very current of your vital energy.
And it has been waiting a long time for you to come and awaken it.
You then lie down along this river of light.
And you let its current match the shape of your spine.
You remain there for a long moment.
Simply rocked by the murmur of this warm current.
Breathing this mineral air that smells of warm stone and tranquil depth.
The cave surrounds you like a protective shell.
And you gradually understand that here.
Nothing can reach you or hurry you.
The liquid light then enters through the base of your back.
Where the energy was sleeping.
And begins to rise very slowly.
Vertebra by Vertebra.
At the first level.
Right at the bottom.
It warms the base of your spine.
A sensation of deep grounding spreads.
You're solid.
You're supported.
You have the right to exist fully.
Without having to justify yourself.
The light rises one step.
Reaches the lower part of your belly beneath your hands.
And there.
A fluid softness spreads.
A peace with your own life.
With the simple pleasure of being a living body.
Capable of feeling and enjoying the moment.
It rises again.
Reaches the hollow of your stomach.
And a quiet strength lights up there.
A calm confidence without agitation.
Like a flame that no longer flickers.
The current of light continues its ascent and reaches your chest.
The center of your heart.
There it opens widely.
An immense tenderness fills you.
For yourself first.
Than for all that lives.
Your chest expands.
Your breathing deepens.
You feel that this energy has nothing threatening about it.
It is made of pure love.
All the times when you had to harden your heart to protect yourself.
All the times when you closed it so as not to suffer anymore.
This warmth comes to untie them one by one.
With infinite patience.
Your heart opens like a hand finally unfolded.
After having been clenched for too long.
It rises again.
Passes through your throat.
Which loosens and opens.
As if freed from a word held back for far too long.
It reaches the middle of your forehead.
A soft clarity lights up there.
Like a small inner lamp.
Then it finally reaches the crown of your head.
And there.
It blooms into a flower of light.
Petal after petal.
Silent.
The river of light now passes through you entirely.
From the base of your back to the crown of your head.
In a single uninterrupted thread of living warmth.
Stay like this.
Traversed from bottom to top by this warm current.
You have nothing to direct.
Nothing to push.
The energy knows exactly where to go and how much is needed.
Feel how your entire being vibrates with equal softness.
As if every cell had begun to sing the same low.
This force that you perhaps feared to awaken.
Turns out to be the most tender.
The most maternal of presences.
It only asks to dwell within you in peace.
And the more you allow it to circulate.
The more it thanks you.
By depositing within you a sensation of fullness.
You have not known since childhood that rare feeling of being entirely in your place.
In a body that at last welcomes you.
The river of light as it rose.
Has connected everything within you.
Bottom and the top.
The earth and the sky.
The ancient shadow and the new clarity.
You are no longer fragmented.
You are a single,
Continuous song.
From the first breath to the top of the skull.
And little by little.
The Cave.
The River.
And your body merge into a single warm expanse.
You no longer quite know where your back ends and where the ground begins.
Where the light ends and where you begin.
The One.
That was rising along your spine.
Is no longer rising.
It now spreads in all directions at once.
Diffusing like a gentle ink in still water.
Reaching the most remote corner of your being.
Your whole body becomes a single worm.
Fulfilled Space.
Without edges.
Without.
Or bottom.
The small ember from the beginning has become an inner sun.
Slow and benevolent.
That no longer illuminates but warms.
That no longer burns but cradles.
Something in you,
Long withdrawn.
Finally agrees to unfold completely.
There is nothing left to awaken.
Nothing left to raise.
Nothing left to contain.
The sacred energy has joined you.
And it keeps watch in your place.
A very slow pulse passes through you.
Older than your thoughts.
And with each beat.
Your consciousness opens a little more widely.
Then diffuses.
Then gently fades into the warmth.
The light of the cave does not go out.
It folds back to the center of you.
Becomes internal.
Like a glow one keeps in the hollow of the hands.
Everything becomes cushioned.
Without contours.
And you open without fear into something vast and warm.
You now drift as a fragrance spreads in the evening air.
As a corolla opens in the warm dark.
Toward the deepest and most restorative sleep of your life.
And if you are not yet asleep?
I invite you to let the following affirmations carry you into sleep.
Your unconscious will then take over.
A sacred and benevolent energy lies dormant in me.
I let this force awaken at its own pace.
Gentleness is the surest path to my awakening.
My body is a safe place where energy can flow.
With each breath,
A tender warmth rises along my spine.
I force nothing.
I let life unfold within me.
My grounding is deep.
And it makes me free.
I allow myself to fully feel my vital energy.
Each center of my body opens in peace.
The force that dwells within me is made of pure love.
I am solid.
Alive.
And profoundly safe.
My heart opens and welcomes all this softness.

I release everything that was keeping my vitality imprisoned.
My whole body vibrates with a calm.
I am connected to a wisdom older than my thinking.

Nothing in me needs to be forced tonight.
