Welcome to this guided meditation,
Which might be different than many others that you have done.
Today,
We will embark on an exciting journey of self-discovery and relaxation,
And we'll challenge the limitless power of our mind and the ability of our mind's eye.
Find a comfortable position,
Either sitting or lying down,
And gently close your eyes.
Take a deep breath in through your nose,
Hold it for a moment,
And exhale slowly through your mouth.
Repeat this a few times and allow your body to relax with each breath that you take.
As you return to breathing naturally and comfortably,
We will begin by clearing and balancing your chakras,
Which are the spiritual energy centers of our bodies.
Clearing them will open them up to the experience that will follow.
As we move through each chakra,
I invite you to visualize its corresponding color as you exhale.
Let's start at the root chakra,
Located at the base of your spine.
Inhale deeply and visualize a vibrant red light glowing at your root.
As you exhale,
Imagine this red light expanding and grounding you to the earth.
Inhale through your nose,
Hold,
And exhale through your mouth,
Releasing any tension as you do.
Now shift your awareness to the sacral chakra,
Located just below your navel.
Imagine a warm orange light radiating from this area.
And again,
Inhale deeply through your nose,
Hold,
And exhale slowly through your mouth,
Letting go of any negativity or stress or strife.
Next,
Bring your focus to the solar plexus chakra,
Located in your upper abdomen.
Visualize a bright yellow light shining brightly here.
Inhale through your nose,
Hold,
And exhale through your mouth feeling empowered and confident.
And now move your attention to the heart chakra,
Located in the center of your chest.
Imagine a soothing green light enveloping your heart.
Inhale slowly through your nose,
Hold,
And exhale through your mouth,
As you do,
Spreading the energy of love and compassion for yourself and others.
And now shift focus to the throat chakra,
And visualize a calming blue light emanating from this area.
Again inhale through your nose,
Hold,
And exhale knowing that you have the power to always use your voice and express your truth.
And now bring your awareness to the third eye chakra,
Located between your eyebrows.
Picture a deep indigo light illuminating this space.
Inhale through your nose,
Hold,
And exhale through your mouth,
Enhancing your intuition and strengthening your knowing.
And finally,
Focus on your crown chakra,
Located just above the top of your head.
Visualize a radiant violet light connecting you to the universe and opening a channel to divine energy.
Inhale deeply through your nose,
Hold,
And exhale slowly through your mouth,
Feeling a sense of unity.
With your chakras cleared and balanced,
Breathe naturally and comfortably,
And imagine a beautiful white marble staircase ahead of you.
Each step is smooth and inviting.
As you begin to ascend the stairs,
Feel the support and coolness of the marble beneath your feet.
With each step,
You feel lighter and more at peace.
And when you reach the top,
You see before you a huge strong door crafted by artisans from antiquity.
Run your fingers along the detailed sculptures that adorn the door.
Slowly push,
And it slowly swings open,
With ease despite its obvious size and weight.
And once opened,
You see that you are in a hallway,
Surrounded by books on both sides,
From as low to as high as the eye can see.
You are mesmerized by what you are beholding,
And you have entered the library of Akashic records,
A sacred space containing every human experience that has ever been had,
Including those in the present and those yet to come.
You marvel at the elegant gold gilded letters on the spines of every book.
And as you look around in this library of higher consciousness,
You see another door ahead of you at the end of the hallway.
You are drawn to it,
And as you approach,
It opens automatically.
Inside,
You see smaller shelves also filled with books,
And one book immediately stands out,
Illuminated by a spotlight of pure white light and positive energy.
As you draw nearer,
You see the spine of this book shimmering and reflecting beautiful colors,
Every color of the rainbow.
You reach up and gently remove the book from the shelf.
As you hold it,
You are instantly enveloped in warmth and divine energy.
You know immediately that this book is uniquely yours,
Only yours,
And unable to be read by anyone else.
You take the book over to a comfortable chair and sit to further explore what awaits.
As you open the book,
A radiant white light emerges from the pages.
At first,
It's blinding,
But it gradually dims,
Allowing you to see the contents.
Take a few moments now to sit with and page through this book of life.
Be mindful of what might appear on the pages.
A page might spark a fond memory and allow you to relive it for the moment,
Or you might see a symbol that has special meaning only to you,
Perhaps a message from a loved one in spirit,
And other pages might spark pleasant aromas or purifying sounds,
Again,
Whose meanings only you can interpret.
You might see words that are clear to you,
Or you might see blank pages,
Perhaps indicating a future that is yet to be written.
Sit now with your book as you continue to breathe comfortably and enjoy this experience,
This divine gift and opportunity,
For a few moments before we return.
And now,
As we prepare to return to our physical surroundings,
Gently close the book and replace it on the shelf.
Give thanks for this opportunity and for the life you have led thus far.
Now we will bring you back through the second door,
Down the hall,
Through the first door,
Safely down the marble staircase,
And slowly back to your physical space.
As we reverse this journey,
We also dim the chakras that we cleared and opened at the start so that we are balanced for the day.
As you breathe,
Visualize the violet color of the crown chakra,
And exhale it,
And then the indigo of the third eye,
Exhale,
And then the blue of the throat chakra.
Inhale that,
And move to the green color of the heart chakra,
And exhale that.
Down to the yellow of the solar plexus,
Exhale slowly.
And to the orange of the sacral chakra,
Exhale.
And finally,
Where we began,
The red of the root chakra,
Exhale that color to dim and balance that energy center.
And now,
Take a deep breath in through your nose,
Hold,
And exhale slowly through your mouth.
Again,
Inhale through the nose,
Hold,
And exhale through the mouth.
And once more,
Inhale deeply through the nose,
Hold,
And exhale slowly and fully through the mouth.
And with that exhalation,
Gently wiggle your fingers and toes to bring your awareness completely back to your physical surroundings.
When you're ready,
Open your eyes,
Feeling relaxed,
At peace,
And wiser for the experience this meditation has provided.
Thank you.
