Our journey begins by finding a comfortable position.
You can sit on a chair,
A cushion,
The grass in your yard or a park,
Or maybe standing with your feet planted on the earth.
It doesn't really matter as long as you are comfortable.
As our journey continues,
Take a moment to notice your breath.
Just let it flow and bring your attention to your body.
Feel the weight of your being supported,
Grounded,
Held by the space beneath you.
Begin to visualize roots extending from the base of your spine,
Reaching deep into the earth,
Passing through each layer with ease and growing stronger.
Imagine that they are anchoring you to the center of the earth.
Can you feel a sense of stability,
Strength,
Security?
Draw upon the nurturing and grounding qualities associated with the earth element.
And with each breath,
Imagine that you are drying up the energy of the earth through your roots.
Does the energy feel warm,
Calming,
Nurturing?
Maybe it has a color.
As a light of energy rises up through your body,
Let it fill you with stability,
Courage,
Safety,
Creativity,
Passion,
Love,
Truth,
Vision.
Calmness.
Embrace the earth's stability.
As the earth's energy permeates your being,
Allow yourself to feel rooted and secure.
Embody the steady and unwavering nature of the earth,
Letting go of all distractions.
Embrace the steady and unwavering nature of the earth,
Letting go of any restlessness or anxiety,
Knowing that you are supported and grounded.
Take a moment to express gratitude for the earth's nurturing presence and the stability it provides.
Appreciate the solid foundation that allows you to navigate challenges with resilience,
Self-awareness,
Confidence.
Slowly start to bring your awareness back to the space you occupy.
Begin to feel your breath flowing through your body,
Wiggling your fingers and toes,
Taking a few final deep breaths,
Releasing any tension or stress.
With each exhale,
Carrying the grounding energy of earth with you as you continue your day.
And when you are ready,
Gently open your eyes.
Until next time,
May you know stability,
May you know security,
May you know self-confidence.
