Hello friends,

Welcome to this Power Up meditation.

This meditation is going to help activate your solar plexus chakra in a really healthy and affirming way so that you can feel empowered in your entire being,

Including your energy field.

So,

Have a seat and of course if you are not comfortable sitting down,

Choose whatever position allows you to be at ease.

And bring your eyes to close if you'd like.

And in these first few moments,

Begin to draw your attention inward.

Just beginning to notice how you're doing today.

Acknowledge your breath.

And acknowledge what brought you here to this practice.

Maybe you're just curious about this meditation.

Maybe it popped up in your feed and it looked interesting.

Or maybe you sought it out.

Maybe you're feeling low energy.

Maybe you're feeling disempowered in this moment.

What brought you here?

And then really settle in to here.

Settling into this moment.

Settling into your body.

And settling into the place where you reside right now.

Maybe you're in your living room or your bedroom or at work.

Maybe the words,

Be here now.

And again bringing attention back to the flow of your breath.

And just take a few rounds of breathing.

Intentionally slowing down your inhales and slowing down your exhales.

And then taking your attention down into your solar plexus area.

The solar plexus is the space right above your navel.

Right beneath your sternum,

Your chest.

This chakra,

Called menopura chakra,

Is the home to the element of fire.

It resonates with the color yellow.

And this chakra helps us feel empowered in who we are.

So just feel into this part of your physical body.

And bring one hand to rest right over this part of your belly.

And take a couple breaths,

Breathing into this space.

Really checking in here,

Noticing any sensations.

Noticing if this part of your body feels open and light and clear or if it feels tight,

Shut down,

Or heavy.

And regardless of what you're experiencing in this moment,

Here at the solar plexus,

Know that your true power resides here.

Feel free to keep your hand resting over this place,

Or if you prefer,

You can just take your hand gently away and let your hand rest over your thigh or in your lap.

But keep breathing into this space,

Keep circulating awareness,

Energy,

And breath through your solar plexus chakra.

And we're going to begin to use visualization as well as specific breathing to help power up this energy center,

To help turn up the volume on your personal power.

And so in your mind's eye,

I want you to visualize the sun.

And just notice the sun that you're seeing in your mind's eye,

Notice the color of it.

Notice any textures to it.

Is it the morning sun or the evening sun?

Can you see the sky around it?

Notice if this sun is bright or more subdued.

What are the qualities of the sun?

And as you be with this image,

Just really honor the sun and its energy.

And then begin to intentionally draw this image of the sun and all of its energy down into your body,

Into your solar plexus.

You might do this with your in-breath.

So you just breathe in and allow that image in your mind's eye to travel down and land right inside of you within your belly.

And once you've invited the sun down into your solar plexus,

Just let it settle,

Let it fully arrive here.

And as it does,

Notice any sensations that arise or even emotions that begin to emerge.

The light of the sun naturally purifies any negativity.

It helps to burn up any old heavy energy that blocks our personal power.

It helps to clear out this space so that we have access to our inner strength,

Our willpower,

Our competence.

And as the sun is settling here inside of you,

Offering your solar plexus its brilliant light,

Continue to circulate the breath through this area.

And begin to feel yourself breathing right down into the very center of your being,

Into the center of the solar plexus chakra where it resides within the physical body.

And as you breathe in,

Feel as though you're expanding out from that center point to the edges of your physical body.

And as you do this,

Maybe the sun,

The glow,

The light of the sun increases and expands as well.

So you breathe into the center of your solar plexus chakra,

Rooted inside your body.

And that inhalation supports this gentle expansion outward towards the edges of your physical body.

And then as you breathe out,

Just imagine as the breath leaves and you feel that gentle retraction or condensing back in,

Feel as though this solar plexus chakra,

The energy of it is gently hugging you in an affirming way,

An empowering way.

And just do one or two more breaths like that,

So breathing into the center of the sun that you've placed inside your solar plexus chakra,

Letting that sun expand,

That light expand out to touch the edges of your body.

And then as you breathe out,

Feeling the sun,

The energy,

The edges of your body gently drawing back in,

Giving you an affirming hug,

Helping you feel stronger in your outer boundaries,

Helping you feel clear in who you are.

And now we're going to power up a little bit from here and you're going to breathe in again to the center of your being,

To the center of the sun inside of you.

And as you do that,

Begin to expand again out from that center point,

But this time let the sun expand out about two feet from your body.

So you're moving outside your physical body into your energetic field.

You might be imagining yourself surrounded now by this beautiful sun that has grown to hold all of you.

And then as you exhale,

Imagine this globe of light surrounding you,

Just gently drawing in,

Giving you a little squeeze,

Giving you a little hug,

Affirming how strong you are,

Affirming your boundaries,

Affirming your personal power.

And repeating that,

Inhaling down into the center of your being and beginning to expand your inner sun out,

Out,

Out two feet from the body.

Feel the edges there within your energetic field.

Imagine yourself inside your sun.

And then as you exhale the outer edges of the sun surrounding you,

Tighten up,

Squeeze in and securely hold you and affirm who you are,

Your sense of strength,

Power,

Confidence.

Just repeat that one or two more times.

Each time you're getting that little hug from the sun,

The sun is saying to you,

You get to be who you are.

You get to feel strong in who you are.

You get to be empowered in who you are.

You are strong.

You are brilliant like me.

You are bright and lit up like me.

You are empowered.

The sun never shines away from being who it is,

Right?

It shines brightly.

No matter what,

Even if clouds cross its path,

Continues to shine brightly.

Beautiful.

So we're going to take this one step further and see if we can expand out a little bit more.

So again,

Breathe in and down into the center of your being,

To the center of your solar plexus chakra inside your body and begin to expand out like you're breathing in and filling up this beautiful sun that now is going to expand out about four to five feet outside of your physical body.

Adjust based on what feels right for you.

Maybe you expand out six feet or eight feet or maybe only four feet.

You'll breathe in and see how big your sun wants to become until you're fully surrounded by this beautiful sun you're engulfed in it.

As you exhale,

Stay with the edges and firm up the boundary a bit and imagine the outer edges of the sun giving a little squeeze,

Hugging in,

Holding you securely affirming who you are,

Your sense of strength,

Your sense of self,

Your sense of power.

Sealing it in for you to feel,

To hold,

To use.

Repeat that a couple times,

Breathing down deep into the center of your being,

Lighting up,

Expanding out from the central place out into your energetic field,

Maybe four or five or six feet away from your body.

Exhaling hugging in,

Tightening up this outer boundary of you containing your energy,

Containing your power,

Containing your sense of self.

Repeat that just one or two more times,

Inhaling into the center of your being,

Expanding your brilliant sun outward,

Letting your body and your energy field be filled up with the light of the sun and then breathing out,

Keeping yourself this big,

Keeping the sun this expanded as you gently hug in,

Firming up the outer boundary of you.

Then let go of that breath and just allow your awareness to be with your whole self,

Inner to outer,

Outer to inner.

Feel the sun surrounding you,

Feel the sun inside of you,

Feel yourself at one with the sun,

The light of the sun,

The warmth of the sun,

The power,

The presence of the sun.

You get to be you,

You get to be empowered in who you are,

You get to shine brightly.

Let's take three last breaths here.

Breathing in through the nose and sighing out through an open mouth.

Breathing in through the nose,

Sighing out again through an open mouth.

One last time,

Breathing in,

Breathing out.

Thank you for getting powered up with me today.

May you feel true inner strength and may you allow yourself to shine brightly no matter what.

Have a beautiful day.
