Take a moment to arrive now,
To soften your shoulders and unclench your jaw,
Breathe a little deeper into this sanctuary of healing and peace that we're creating together.
Together we are going to take a journey through the chakras,
Each chakra is not just an energy centre,
It's a doorway,
A portal to yourself,
To a deeper understanding of who you are beneath the noise of the world.
This practice is more than a meditation,
This is a healing journey,
A gentle moving inwards and back into yourself.
At each chakra point I will invite you to pause,
To open a gentle conversation with the energy,
To listen to what it needs and also to remember the wisdom that you already carry within you.
Let this journey hold you and nourish you,
Let it restore you from the inside out.
Take a moment,
Take a slow breath,
Feel the surface beneath you,
And let your breath settle now into an easy and natural rhythm.
Let the weight of your body sink down towards the surface that you're resting on,
And then down again towards the earth,
And picture yourself somewhere else now,
Somewhere beautiful as you prepare to watch the sun setting.
Maybe you're sat at the edge of a vast horizon,
The kind of place where the sky feels endless,
And where the colours glow brighter than anywhere else,
And the colours within the sunset become the language of your soul.
Your eyes are drawn to a deep red earthy colour,
The energy of safety and belonging and stability.
You call upon that red within the sunset and you draw it in to a deep red glow at the base of your spine.
The colour of rich red clay,
Of ancient soil,
Of roots that drink up from the earth.
Feel the weight of your body here,
Safe.
The deep red glow of the muladhara chakra,
The root chakra.
Gently you open a conversation with this energy point,
What needs to be felt or heard or seen.
Listen,
Feel red energy at the base of the spine.
Slowly start to shift as your eyes explore the sunset once more.
A tangerine light,
The sacral energy as you call upon that orange,
And draw it into the centre of your pelvis,
Your hips.
The energy of water,
Of emotions and creativity and flow.
Feel and allow your emotions to move.
Feel your creativity unsticking itself and awakening.
Let your emotions rise and fall without force or judgement.
Your awareness now with this orange glow at the centre of your hips.
And open a conversation with the svadhisthana chakra,
The sacral chakra.
What needs to be felt here,
Heard or seen.
What creative energy wants to be present.
What emotion needs to rise.
Trust what you feel.
It can feel unhealthy or water wants to move.
Feel life flowing through you in this orange sacral energy.
Allow yourself to feel.
Allow energy and emotions to come in and flow through you and then leave again.
Knowing that we don't need to hold on to anything we don't want to.
And watch it as it starts to shift into gold and you look up again to your sunset in this vast endless sky.
Your eyes catching the fiery golden energy of the sun.
That golden fiery energy to the belly,
The navel,
The solar plexus,
The manipular chakra.
This brilliant golden light ignites in your belly,
Warm and radiant and empowering.
The energy of confidence,
Identity and inner strength.
You can feel your inner fire stirring and you can feel your worthiness rising and you feel the confidence to step up.
Open this conversation with this beautiful golden energy centre.
What do you need to tell me,
What do I need to see or feel now or hear and sit with this golden fiery light in your core.
Go deeper into the conversation with the solar plexus.
Ask it what fear or doubt can I release now so I can fully step into my power and my fire and light.
Notice what emotions or feelings rise as you connect to this golden glow in your belly.
I stand strong in my power.
My inner fire guides me.
I trust my decisions and my choices.
Let this golden glow shine through the whole of your torso.
Now looking around your sunset scene again you will see a forest bathed in the soft evening light as you pull in the green.
The green of the leaves and the trees.
This forest fresh green energy and you breathe it into your heart,
The anahata chakra.
Breathe deeply,
Feel,
Draw that energy in.
The green loving fresh energy.
Connecting to love and compassion and health.
This green glow unfolding in your chest.
Let the breath move through your heart space clearing and opening and healing.
Let compassion pour inwards.
Feel love finally returning back to you.
Open this conversation with your heart.
What needs to be felt,
Heard or seen here.
As you listen and open your heart.
As you whisper to yourself,
I receive love.
I am love.
Your heart grows soft and spacious with every breath opening and opening and opening.
As you draw your eyes back and the sun is lowering and lowering the vast and the sky and your eyes are drawn to the blue twilight colours.
The energy,
The colour of the throat,
The vishuddha chakra.
Imagine that twilight blue as the sun is nearly set.
The energy of ether,
Of expression,
Of authenticity,
Of truth,
Of honesty.
Feel your throat softening.
Feel the unclenching.
Feel the truth rising steady and kind.
And feel your voice ready to be heard.
Open this gentle and loving conversation with this blue energy around your throat,
Your vishuddha.
What does it need to say?
What needs to be heard?
What truth needs to rise?
Notice what emotions,
Images,
Words,
Feelings are coming up to your consciousness.
What truth needs to be spoken?
My voice is important.
Close your eyes to the ajna chakra,
The centre of your brow.
We're calling in the energy of intuition,
Of insight and inner vision.
This beautiful indigo gathers between your brows,
That colour of the sky just before night fully arrives and the stars are beginning to shine.
As you connect here,
Your inner sight awakens and your intuition steps forward.
The fog seems to clear and everything becomes obvious and open.
Begin your conversation with the ajna chakra,
The third eye.
What needs to be heard?
What needs to be felt or seen?
Trust what arises.
What wisdom or visions are you ready to show me now?
Whisper to yourself,
I trust my inner knowing.
I see clearly.
Let the indigo in your brow centre expand and expand and expand.
And cast your eyes back to the night sky where the sun has completely set.
Allow your eyes to drift to the most brilliant and beautiful star.
Pure,
White,
Violet light.
And invite that light to flow down to the top of your head,
To the crown chakra,
The sahasra chakra.
The energy of spirit,
Of higher self,
Soul connection,
Divine guidance,
Source.
And at the crown,
A soft violet glow opens,
Turning to pure white light.
Feel the connection,
Feel the presence of your higher self,
Like a gentle hand on your shoulder.
Open the connection to the crown,
To the light.
And here at this point,
What needs to be felt or heard or seen now?
Ask this energy centre,
What message does my higher self have for me now?
And whisper to yourself,
I am connected,
I am guided,
I am one with my soul.
And as if you are looking back down upon yourself,
Seeing all of the seven colours within you,
Weaving together and around you,
A radiant cocoon of sunset energy.
The reds,
The oranges,
The yellows,
The greens and blues and indigos and whites.
You are whole and you are healing and you are returning to yourself.
Breathe into this wholeness.
Reflecting on the journey that you have taken,
What makes you feel safe?
What emotions want to express themselves?
Where in my life am I ready to reclaim my power?
What truth am I ready to speak?
What intuitive message came through for you now?
And what guidance has my higher self,
My soul,
Offered me in this practice?
Take a slow breath in and an even slower breath out.
Feel your body resting in the afterglow.
Feel the alignment.
A loving reminder of the sunset within your soul.
Thank you for sharing this sacred space with me.
Namaste.
