Stay here,

Notice where your mind is going.

Can you be here right now,

Breathe here right now,

Listen to the quality of your breath on the inhale and your exhale.

Any thoughts that may be coming,

Just let them pass,

You're expanding the mind by expanding your breath.

On your next inhale,

Open up through your throat,

So releasing and tilting your head back,

Exhale chin down,

Inhale reach up again,

Open the throat chakra,

The throat center,

The throat chakra and the throat center is connected to Taurus,

Notice if there's any release now,

If there's any relief.

Then rub the palms together,

Rub your palms together,

Create some energy,

Some energy in the palms and bring your thumbs to the center of your chest.

We need to begin to visualise roots coming from the base of your spine,

Connecting to the earth,

The element of earth which keeps us steady,

Grounded,

Secure,

Safe.

I want you to begin to envision the colour red,

An earthy red colour at the base of your spine,

I want you to begin to breathe from the base of the spine,

Take a breath here,

Fill yourself up with this earth energy which balances all the elements,

Earth element,

Water element,

Fire element,

Air element,

Ether element and feel each element being rebalanced,

Re-energised,

Re-centred,

Open your hands into a lotus resting your thumbs against the sternum and as you close your eyes and you tune in to yourself ask what is it you wish to receive?

Breathe in,

Breathe out.

Focus your third eye into your heart space,

What are you in vision to receive?

Keep breathing,

Keep breathing that vision,

Expand that vision into your heart space so you can feel it.

Breathe in together and as you exhale now slowly open the eyes very gently as you blink the eyes open and just begin to draw each petal of your fingers together holding it at the heart space bowing deep bow,

Deep bow to the prayer,

Deep bow to the heart space.

Heart spells earth and earth spells heart.

When you connect the two you connect yourself with the elements because you are the elements and you are the earth.

If we are feeling it in our heart we are feeling it on the earth.

Just staying here and just really connecting with your intuition drawing yourself into that space to open this third eye to see beyond anything holding you back.

It's really important that we stay connected to our intuition.

Our intuition is there to really help us to make the right decisions to go with our gut to go and tap into our inner wisdom and tap into our heart space.

The three pearls of wisdom.

If you're making a decision and it feels good then go with that energy because that's your tapping into your instinct.

If you're going with a decision that doesn't feel good then you will know the consequences if you go down that path.

Even though sometimes it takes a while to go down that path which feels good and you connect with your gut instinct that feels good and it may take a while,

That longer journey will lead you to a better place.

If we go with our ego it will take us to a place which is satisfying for a moment but then there'll be a distortion because that's what tends to happen.

Honor your gut.

Honor your gut.

Honor yourself.

Honor your instinct.

Honor your intuition.

It's an inner tuition that we have to continue to build our muscle on so that it guides us to a place that we can continue to move in peace and harmony and in that space of magic and openness.

So as you take these gems tonight in your meditation practice,

Apply it.

This is what makes it real.

If we apply what we learn,

Otherwise they're just concepts and otherwise they are just philosophies.

They are not applied practices.

So apply it to your daily life.

Listen to yourself.

Listen to your heart.

Listen to your intuition.

Listen to your instincts.

It's all there.

It's all there within and we've got to just keep training ourselves like we go to the gym.

Train those inner muscles and let them guide you.

Together let's take a breath.

Hands to prayer pose and let's close tonight by giving thanks to the earth.

Giving thanks to all the food,

Vegetation,

The water,

All that is produced by the earth that we take in.

Let's give thanks for how the world functions,

The mother earth and let's give thanks for walking on the earth,

Being held by the earth,

Being grounded by the earth and sending you loads of peace,

Loads of love,

Loads of guidance,

Inspiration and light on your way.
