Welcome to this meditation to explore the energy of the chakras or subtle energy centers.
In this practice,
We'll be bringing attention to each area while visualizing its associated color and embodying its related qualities.
Bring yourself to a comfortable position where you can have your spine straight.
You might sit on the floor with a cushion or blanket underneath you,
Or you can sit in a chair if that helps you be more comfortable.
As you find your seat,
Soften any rigidness in your body and begin to relax.
Feel rooted through your lower body,
Long and extended through your torso,
With the crown of your head reaching up toward the sky.
Imagine a clear,
Hollow tube that extends from your tailbone to the crown of your head.
See a white light inside the tube,
And this white light represents your breath.
Feel follow the flow of your breath along the tube,
Beginning from the bottom to the top.
Breathing in,
Seeing the light move from the bottom up to the top of the tube,
And breathing out,
Seeing the light travel down to the base of your spine.
Inhaling,
The light moves from the bottom of the tube to the top.
Exhaling,
The light moves from the top down to the bottom.
Gather all your attention at the base of your spine,
The region of your root chakra.
See this area as a spinning red spiral.
This energy center represents your foundation of being grounded,
Secure,
And stable.
Allow yourself to feel safe and supported as you tune in to this energy.
Move your attention up to your lower abdomen,
Below your navel.
This is the second chakra,
The sacral chakra.
Visualize a spinning orange wheel here,
With this area representing your emotional center.
Tune in to your sense of pleasure and creativity as you sense this energy.
Now focus on the area just above your navel,
The location of the solar plexus chakra.
See in your mind's eye a spinning yellow spiral here.
This is your area for self-confidence,
Control,
And willpower.
Feel this strength and vitality within you.
Draw your awareness up into your heart center,
In the middle of your chest.
This is the heart chakra,
Represented by the color green.
This is your area for love,
Compassion,
And wholeness.
As you focus on this energy,
Sense your capacity for compassion,
Forgiveness,
And healing.
Move your awareness to your throat,
At the base of your neck.
This is the fifth chakra,
The throat chakra.
Beginning to see a blue spinning spiral here,
And opening to this energy of communication.
Sharing your truth in ways that inspire and empower,
And being able to listen with gentleness and integrity.
Take your attention up to your forehead,
In the space between your eyebrows,
Where your third eye chakra energy resides.
Seeing an indigo spinning spiral here.
This energy center reflects your intuition and ability to make decisions.
Tune in to your ability to focus and see the big picture.
Bring awareness to the crown of your head,
The area of the seventh chakra.
And envision the color violet here.
This energy helps you know who you are,
Find the deeper purpose of your life,
And feel connected to yourself and others.
Now visualize all chakras simultaneously.
Red at the base of your spine.
Orange at your low abdomen.
Yellow just above your navel.
Green at the center of your chest.
Blue at the base of your neck.
Indigo at your forehead between your eyebrows.
And violet at the top of your head.
Watch the colors become brighter and clearer,
As these energy centers are fed and nourished by your breath.
Feel the vibrant energy within you.
And when you feel ready,
Start to bring yourself back,
Allowing your eyes to open and transitioning back into your space.
Thank you for your presence and your practice.
