Root chakra healing guided meditation script

Below is a step-by-step guide through Julie Skon’s guided meditation for the root chakra.

Step 1: Prepare your space and position

Find a comfortable seated or lying down position. Ensure you are in a quiet place where you won’t be disturbed. Close your eyes and take a deep inhale, letting it all out slowly. 

Step 2: Settle into your body

This meditation is meant to remind you that you are connected, grounded, and safe. Begin by visualizing yourself in your favorite place outdoors, somewhere bright, beautiful, and peaceful where you feel completely safe and relaxed.

Step 3: Breathe and release tension

Take deep breaths into your shoulders, allowing them to relax. Release any tension you’re holding in your jaw or forehead. Let your body be at ease. Focus on your breath, letting it flow naturally in and out. If thoughts arise, gently acknowledge them and return to your breath.

Step 4: Visualize vibrant red

While in this beautiful space, visualize your favorite vibrant color of red. With each inhale, breathe this red deeper into your body, from your throat to your lungs, heart, and down to your root chakra at the base of your spine. Allow this vibrant red to warm and heal your body, filling you with kindness and love.

Step 5: Guided breaths

As you continue to breathe in this vibrant red light, follow this series of inhales and exhales:

  • Inhale warmth, exhale fully.
  • Inhale love, let it out.
  • Inhale groundedness, release.
  • Inhale safety, breathe out.
  • Inhale healing, exhale completely.
  • Inhale breath, and let it settle within you.

Step 6: Reflective statements

For the next couple of minutes, finish these sentences in your mind, allowing the answers to flow naturally and letting them go:

  • I am connected to. . .
  • I am grateful for. . .
  • I am. . .

Step 7: Return to your body

When you’re ready, gently wiggle your fingers and toes, start to move around, and open your eyes. Take a moment to savor the feeling of connection and groundedness.
