Hello,
My friend.
Why not let's take a moment to ground our energy?
We have all this great energy inside of us.
You have yours,
It's full of your essence,
Your desires,
Your creativity,
Your love.
And we put that out into the world in all sorts of ways.
And sometimes it can feel a little disorganised or a little ungrounded,
And that can be overwhelming.
So now we can bring it down to the earth.
Right now,
We can recognise that wherever we are on the planet,
Underneath us is the nurturing,
Stable curve of the earth.
And by the miracle of gravity,
Which you can feel now in your body,
We are brought down into the arms,
Into the stability of that earth where we belong.
And from there,
Like all the plants,
Flowers,
Trees,
We can blossom because our roots are down and our essence can aspire to whatever it wants to do,
However it wants to bloom.
Taking a moment to arrive with those thoughts.
And now sensing that support underneath you.
Maybe it's underneath your seat or your feet or your spine.
Wherever your body is connected to support,
Take your mind there.
You could take a moment to really push a little bit into that support to feel it,
Palpably.
Here you are.
And then that energy inside of you,
That essence,
Imagine it has roots,
Your inner roots,
Somewhere inside your body,
At your core.
Maybe your belly,
Maybe your pelvis.
Or where are your roots really feeling themselves today?
And as you imagine,
Sense,
Visualize these inner roots and breathe.
With each breath,
Feel these roots traveling from your body,
Through your body,
Down,
Down,
Down into the earth.
And not just into the surface of the earth,
But its fiery center.
And remembering how all the good things grow because they put their roots down deep and the earth nourishes them.
Now with your breath,
Can you breathe from those roots in the earth up into your body?
So there are these lines of energy,
Your roots,
Traveling down,
And the nourishment filling them,
Traveling into your body up.
And you're still feeling that support underneath your body,
That connection to your feet,
Your spine,
Your seat.
And at the same time,
Drawing energy from the earth through your roots to fortify you,
To refresh your energy,
To nourish all that's inside of you so that you can offer it joyfully into life.
Feeling that blossoming and nourishing and that kinship with everything that has roots and blossoms.
And maybe asking yourself,
What am I going to do with this grounded energy today that feels joyful and aligned for you?
All right,
My friend,
As we close this practice,
Remember it's so easy to step into at any time of the day.
Off you go and be good to yourself.
