This meditation will connect you to your third chakra,
Your solar plexus chakra.
This is the power center of the chakras.
It is where we bring our truth and our gifts into the world with confidence and courage.
The goal is to shine our light powerfully,
Just like the life-giving light of the sun.
To begin,
Find a comfortable seated meditation posture,
Placing the hands comfortably in your lap.
Feel your spine elongate as you reach the crown of your head toward the sky,
Almost as if there were a string attached and pulling you ever so gently up.
Drop your shoulders away from your ears,
And feel your shoulder blades gliding down your back and your chest lifting and opening.
Gently close your eyes and begin following your breath,
Inhaling and exhaling through the nose.
Notice how it feels to breathe in this moment.
And now I invite you to take three healing breaths,
Visualizing a beautiful white light coming into your being,
Pausing and holding the light in,
And then slowly exhaling out anything that no longer serves you at this time.
Take two more breaths in this way,
Beginning now to soften your physical body,
Consciously releasing any tension or holding that you feel in the muscles,
The joints,
And even your organs,
Allowing the body to become soft and still,
And now starting to let go of your mind and all of the different roles that you play in your life.
And as you release all of those roles,
You release all of the stories that go along with each one of those roles,
Not having to be any one of them in this moment.
In releasing your physical body and your mind with all the roles and stories of your life,
You release the parts of yourself that are temporary to this lifetime,
And create more space to connect to the part of you that is infinite.
This is your higher self,
The true essence of your soul.
And at this time,
I'd like you to bring your attention to your solar plexus,
Located between your breastbone and your navel.
And I'd like you to visualize the sun in the center of your solar plexus,
Feeling the warmth and the glowing golden yellow light filling the space.
If you start to feel the heat building in your solar plexus,
The power and energy of the sun is burning up the things that no longer serve you.
The sun at your solar plexus is cleansing and removing impurities and toxins that are inhibiting your digestion.
Its golden light is filling and lining your stomach with a layer of ease and protection.
Its rays are transforming and releasing the origins of your insecurities and fears,
Creating more space for you to know that you are worthy of living a life that is in alignment with your true desires and wishes.
You experience this powerful,
Bright,
And shining star of love within yourself.
It is not separate from you.
Anytime you don't feel good enough or are fearful of your future,
You can call upon the life-giving sun that resides within you.
And anytime it can generate the heat necessary to burn up self-doubt,
Insecurity,
And fear,
And empower you to move forward with confidence,
Courage,
And strength.
Affirm to yourself now,
I am a bright and shining star of love.
My thoughts,
Feelings,
And intuition are my own.
No one can take away my truth.
I walk through my days confidently and courageously.
I am worthy of receiving abundance and experiencing vibrant health.
I allow my light to radiate even when there is darkness around me.
I am powerful.
So slowly starting to follow your breath again,
Feeling the rise and the fall of the chest,
And now starting to come back into your physical body,
Becoming aware of your hands and your feet,
Your arms and your legs,
Your torso and your chest,
Your neck and your head.
And when you're ready,
Slowly and gently opening your eyes,
Coming back into the present moment,
Feeling strong and confident.
