Good morning,
Beautiful soul.
Good morning and welcome to a new day.
I invite you to stretch your fingers and toes,
Your feet and hands a little bit,
Maybe stretch your hands and arms above your head.
And take your time,
Take your time waking up.
Take your time coming to seated position.
You can prop up pillows behind your back to get really cozy,
Really comfortable because that's how we want to start our day.
In the best possible way.
There,
Now with your back leaning against those pillows,
Let's take three deep breaths together in through the nose.
Hold it a bit at the top and exhale.
And again in through the nose.
Hold it and exhale.
And one more time in through the nose.
Hold it a little bit and out with a sigh.
Welcome beautiful soul.
Welcome beautiful soul.
This is indeed a new day,
A new chance for you to start over,
Start afresh.
And it's a chance for you to ground into Mother Earth so that she can support you throughout the day.
And so that you feel supported throughout the day from your innermost self and your actions and your presence.
It's also a chance for you to land in gratitude,
To wake up with a grateful heart.
It's also a chance for you to set the tone for your day.
Not to make the most of it in a hustling kind of way,
But for you to become present with yourself.
To really give yourself the gift of self-compassion and presence,
Self-love and also really to tune in with your holistic needs.
So let's begin,
My dear,
By grounding into Mother Earth.
Imagine your beautiful roots forming at the very base of your spine and your roots like energetic cords travel through the mattress,
Through the bed and floorboards,
The building,
Through the ground,
The soil,
The many,
Many,
Many layers of earth.
And your roots travel down,
Down,
Down,
Passing underground water systems and crystal caves.
And your roots continue further and further down until they reach the golden center of the earth.
And here they wrap around our center,
Helping you feel grounded,
Safe and connected throughout this day and within yourself.
And now,
My love,
With your roots firmly grounded into Mother Earth,
Let's call up this beautiful golden light that resides in the very center of the earth and the core of the earth.
Let's call up that light,
See how it's traveling up your roots,
Up,
Up,
Up,
Up,
Up through all the many layers of earth,
Passing underground water systems and crystal caves,
Up,
Up,
Up to the soil,
The ground,
The building,
The floorboards.
The bed,
The mattress and into the base of your spine and into your root chakra.
And your root chakra symbolizing your sense of belonging and abundance and family and connection,
Security.
And your root chakra now visualize this beautiful red rose.
And see how the golden light invites this rose to open its petals layer by layer,
Helping balance this beautiful root chakra of yours.
And remember to breathe.
And perhaps also tilt your chin a bit towards your chest as to straighten out your spine a little bit.
And now imagine the golden light traveling up to your sacral chakra.
Sacral chakra,
This your center for creativity and sensual and sexual connection and self-expression and abundance.
Now imagine how your beautiful sacral chakra is filled with a gloriously beautiful orange rose that opens its many petals layer by layer.
And relax.
And now see how the light travels up to your solar plexus,
Your solar chakra.
And here is where your inner warrior rests,
Your inner warrior,
Your inner queen,
Your inner king,
Your self-confidence resides.
And this in your center for your inner confidence and your sense of self.
See how the most beautiful yellow rose opens its many petals layer by layer,
Activating and balancing your solar chakra.
And now my dear,
See how the golden light travels up to your heart chakra in level with your heart in the middle of your chest.
See how your heart chakra is now filled with a beautiful pink rose symbolizing beauty,
Harmony,
Connection,
Love and self-love.
And this rose opens its many petals layer by layer by layer.
And this rose opens its many petals layer by layer by layer.
And imagine its beautiful,
Sweet and soft scent.
Bask in its beauty and see its softness and strength.
And some say that your soul resides here,
Whatever rings true to you,
My dear.
And now the golden light travels up to your throat chakra,
Situated in level with a little pit in between your collarbones.
And here in this your center for expression,
Written,
Spoken,
Sung,
But also listening to others.
In this your center for true expression,
Imagine a rare blue rose opening its many petals layer by layer.
And now the golden light travels up to your third eye,
Situated in between your eyebrows.
And now your third eye,
Situated in between your eyebrows.
And now your third eye,
Situated in between your eyebrows.
And now your third eye,
Situated in between your eyebrows.
And here in your third eye,
Your eyebrow center,
Which is where some people say that your soul resides.
Here imagine a beautiful purple rose,
Symbolizing your center of inner vision,
Inner knowing,
Intuition.
Connect with this beautiful place within and see how this rose open its many layers of petals.
Marvelous.
And now see the golden light traveling up to your crown chakra,
Situated just in between your eyebrows.
The golden light traveling up to your crown chakra,
Situated just above the crown of your head.
And this your center for connection to source and higher consciousness,
And to the collective consciousness,
And to source from which you receive transmissions and guidance.
Envision here in your crown chakra a beautiful diamond sparkly white rose.
A diamond sparkly white rose that opens its many layers of petals,
Helping you balance and connect with your crown chakra.
And now the golden light travels up,
Up,
Up,
Up,
Up all the way up to the central sun.
So you become a light pillar between the central sun and the very center of the earth.
And through the central sun you also receive cosmic beautiful light,
Beautiful light,
Rainbow sparkly white light that travels down from the central sun through all your chakras,
Through your roots to the center of the earth.
Thus you becoming this centered,
Grounded,
Connected pillar of light.
And always,
As always,
You can come back to the present moment,
To the here and now,
Whenever you wish.
And as always,
You are your own guru.
You are the master of your universe.
And you get to decide what feels right for you.
And you have the power each day to listen within,
To place both of your hands on your heart if you wish,
And to feel your heart beat towards your palms,
To feel your hands warm your heart,
Feel this connection,
Still being connected to the cosmic central sun,
Center of the earth.
Anything is possible,
My dear.
From this place,
From this space,
Anything is possible.
And the most important thing you can do for yourself and others today is to listen.
Listen to the whisper of your heart.
Listen to what your body has to tell you and listen to your inner intuition.
Feel this beautiful presence.
And with your hands still on your heart,
How do you wish to spend this day?
Perhaps it is full with things that you have to accomplish,
Your schedule is perhaps so full.
But one thing you can do for yourself is to do things with presence.
And when you eat,
Can you eat your food with presence and enjoyment?
When you listen to others,
Can you listen with intent?
When you speak,
Can you speak with intent?
When you speak,
Can you speak from your heart?
And when you have a couple of minutes or maybe hours,
Can you spend them in nature or at least go outside and connect with the outdoors,
With the elements,
Perhaps even place your bare feet on the ground and feel the benefit of this connection.
Feel the benefit of the fresh air filling your lungs.
Or perhaps your life looks very different and you live in a big city,
So maybe it's music,
Going to a concert,
Or perhaps spending time with your loved ones.
Perhaps this is what is most important for you today.
So whatever your schedule looks like,
I want to invite you to imagine how you wish to feel going about this day.
Now feel that.
And let that sensation fill each and every cell of you and send it down into the center of the earth and up to the central sun and feel the support of your intentions for this day,
This new day.
And now call back the pillar of light from the central sun back through your crown chakra,
Third eye,
Third chakra to your heart.
And now call back the roots from the center of the earth while thanking Mother Earth for having held you ground before you.
And now,
Call back the roots from the center of the earth while thanking Mother Earth for having held you grounded,
Safe,
And connected throughout this journey.
And your roots travel up,
Up,
Up through all the many layers of earth,
Traveling up through underground water systems and crystal caves,
Up,
Up,
Up through all the many layers of sediments and rock until they reach the soil,
The ground,
Floorboards,
The bed,
The mattress,
And the base of your spine.
And now the golden light gathers with the cosmic light in your heart.
Live from your heart today.
And you can imagine your chakras closing over slightly.
Just closing a bit like a rose in the evening.
So the root,
The sacral,
The solar,
The heart,
The throat,
Third eye,
The crown chakras are all gently closed over,
Not like a tight bud,
But closed so that you can receive everything and anything that is for your highest and greatest good while still keeping outside of your energy field that which is not.
And now,
My dear,
Perhaps place your hands on your knees,
In your lap if you haven't done so already.
And just relax your shoulders and roll them a little bit.
Perhaps pull your shoulders up to your ears,
Hold it,
And release.
And one more time,
Shoulders up to your ears,
Hold it,
Hold it,
Hold it,
And release.
Shoulders up to your ears,
Hold it,
Hold it,
Hold it,
And release with a sigh.
Move your toes and fingers.
Flutter your eyes open if they were closed.
