Thank you for joining this practice.
Today we'll be clearing our energetic fields and establishing protections which will enable us to find peace and harmony even amongst the lower vibrational energies which we may find present in our day to day lives.
Often we'll find ourselves entangled with others who may be unknowingly spreading negative energy.
Sometimes we may have our own baggage which has been left unaddressed or unacknowledged that can become a drain upon our energy affecting us negatively.
Other times we might find our energy brought down by things which feel altogether outside of ourselves like the collective energy of our communities or the daily routine we become prescribed to which doesn't facilitate our highest good.
In this practice we'll set our collective intentions on clearing any negative energies we've allowed to take residence within ourselves no matter where they've come from.
So make sure you've found a comfortable position where your spine is straight.
Leave your hands resting in your lap or at your side,
Palms up,
And if you haven't already,
Please close your eyes.
Allow your body to relax.
If you need to make any final adjustments,
Do them now,
But otherwise let yourself really sink in.
Relax the muscles in your face.
Let your tongue rest down at the floor of your mouth.
Breathe in and out through your nose,
Letting your out breaths stretch and linger.
Roll your shoulders down and back,
Opening your chest wide.
Feel a wave of relaxation passing down through your body.
It source your own steady breathing.
Feel it sweep through your throat and into your chest.
Feel it glide downward through your back.
Feel it swim into your stomach and hips.
Feel it pool at the base of your spine,
Your root,
And feel it flow down into your legs,
Into your knees,
Ankles,
And feet.
Allow your whole body to relax and notice your mind relaxing with it.
Notice your mind becoming one-pointed,
Aimed squarely onto your breath.
Watch the breath silently,
Wordlessly.
Do not attempt to control it.
Simply witness.
Let it flow.
As your mind focuses on these gentle sensations,
Feel it also expanding.
Feel a deeper awareness opening as you stay right here with your breath.
Now,
In this expanded state,
Let's return to our intentions of clearing our energetic fields.
I want you to take a deep breath in,
Filling yourself all the way up and hold that breath,
Noticing where the energy from your breath blooms in your midbrain.
Squeeze in your stomach and your back.
Lift your pelvic floor.
Squeeze it all in and release with a sigh.
Let's take one more deep breath like this.
Again,
Noticing the place where the energy reaches your midbrain,
Feeling it blossom there.
Hold the breath.
Squeeze in everything around your spine and release.
Now find a comfortable rhythm,
Still breathing more deeply and slowly than normal.
Really allow your out breaths to linger.
I want you to see a glowing white ball of healing light growing at the center of your chest,
Your heart chakra.
Feel a warmth blooming there.
Sense it growing with each breath and feel how wonderful it is to be graced with these sensations of the heart.
Extaining this deep,
Steady breathing into your heart,
I want you to bring in gratitude.
Find something you're truly grateful for and bring that feeling into the space.
Let that gratitude pour into your heart and feel your heart opening,
Feel its power increasing.
Feel yourself enlivened.
See the ball of white light having grown in brightness and feel it beginning to move up from your heart,
Through your throat,
And onto that spot in your midbrain.
Feel it settle on that place where the energy from your deep,
Steady breathing lands and continue breathing into this space,
Into your third eye.
Keep your attention here on the sensations of your midbrain.
I want you to let the ball of light begin to move freely within you.
Trust the intelligence of the light itself to find and clear any negative energies you may have stored within you.
Give it permission now to move freely within your body,
Knowing it is here strictly for your own greatest good.
You may become aware of where the energy is moving or you may not.
Either way,
Make an effort to pay it no mind.
Gently keep your attention on the sensations of breathing and the pleasant effects of releasing these low vibrational energies which we've stored within us.
Feel yourself loosen.
Feel spaciousness growing within you.
Feel yourself at peace.
And know you are safe here.
Know that you deserve it.
Let yourself fully relax.
And either with your own physical body or by imagining this clearly within your mind's eye,
Raise your hands straight up above your head,
Facing your palms outward and sweep them down towards the earth,
Clearing away any residual energy left within your field,
Letting Mother Earth take it from you.
Remember that in life,
When we are met with those who are unhappy or non-virtuous,
The very same people who could potentially influence us energetically,
We should work to cultivate compassion and equanimity.
And so let us set the intention now to maintain strong barriers of energetic protection between ourselves and others.
Not by walling ourselves off and staying closed,
But by sharing our own light and accepting the light of others,
While politely refusing to take on any negativities and choosing to see everyone as the beings of light and love they truly are,
No matter how many layers of distortion it may be buried beneath.
Set this intention now.
Imagine the healing ball of glowing white light,
Having now grown to be larger than ourselves,
Extending out to encompass the whole of our energetic field.
And let us ask humbly,
Knowing we deserve it,
For this light to bestow a divine protection upon us,
To empower us to share our own truth,
Staying steadfast within our own highest nature,
No matter where the collective energies are or who we might find ourselves surrounded by.
And just breathe here.
Let yourself go.
Know that you are safe.
You're taking this time for you.
Finally,
Having cleared our energetic fields and having installed a system of energetic protection,
Let us fully lock in our practice,
Crystallizing our intention of staying free and clear,
No matter the force of energies we come into contact with,
By meditating upon this short affirmation.
Repeat in your mind.
I claim sovereignty over my energetic field.
I claim sovereignty over my energetic field.
I claim sovereignty over my energetic field.
Do this affirmation on your own.
Now,
Let the affirmation go and feel it settling deep within you.
Press into the equanimity.
And so,
We now come back to our physical bodies,
Feeling within us a renewed vigor of spirit,
Feeling free,
Lighter,
And more in tune with our own truth.
Sense your body,
Noticing any tensions which may have built up.
Wiggle your toes.
Wiggle your fingers.
Take a deep breath in and a cleansing breath out.
Let's take one more cleansing,
Relaxing breath in and out.
When you're ready,
Open your eyes.
Thank you so much for joining this practice.
I truly appreciate having had the opportunity to guide you.
Namaste.
