Hello everybody and welcome to today's grounding meditation.
Take a seat and before you close your eyes,
Feel yourself in your body just the way it is right now.
Say to yourself,
I call myself back from every time,
Every space,
Every dimension or alternate reality that my thoughts might take me to,
To be fully present in this moment here and now.
Say that as many times as you need to until you feel it to be true.
When you are ready,
Feel your presence behind your eyes and between your ears.
Then you may close your eyes.
As we sit down today,
Allow your attention to drop down to your root chakra which is cradled in your pelvis.
Focus your attention on this area of your body for just a moment.
What is it telling you?
Now maybe with the use of your hand,
Imagine yourself pushing roots down from your root chakra deep into the earth.
If you are unable to have your bare feet on earth during this meditation,
Remember what that feels like.
Feel the earth beneath you and feel the roots glide effortlessly down.
Imagine them as wide as your body as they go deeper and deeper into the soil.
As they go down deep,
Deep to the center of the earth,
Feel the nutrients of the soil come up through the roots,
Up through your body and filling you like water in a glass until you overflow.
As you push deeper and deeper effortlessly as you reach closer and closer to the center of the earth,
Feel yourself slip away from all that you know until you are surrounded by Mother Earth herself.
Feel this intimacy around you as she cradles you in all of her love and all of her joy.
Imagine yourself like any plant or flower or tree and you have this exchange where you pull up the nutrients of the earth while releasing everything that no longer serves you back into it.
She is here to take that for you,
Like any plant,
Like any flower,
Like any tree,
Pull up the nutrients that are meant for you.
Imagine yourself becoming strong and secure and safe in your own individuality and identity.
As your roots go deeper and deeper and gain strength into the soil.
And like any plant,
Like any flower,
Like any tree,
See yourself grow and mature with all of these nutrients,
See yourself growing tall,
Your branches growing wide,
Maybe your leaves or petals opening up to take in the sun.
Feel yourself fill up with this beloved earth energy.
You are safe,
You are secure,
You are wanted,
You are healthy.
See yourself surrounded by this beautiful color of green that is bright like new growth,
Vibrant,
Alive,
That is healthy and strong and safe.
You grow in peace and ease,
Just like any plant that has everything it needs to grow.
Feel that cycle within you as you accept that that serves your highest good and releases that that no longer serves you.
And like any plant that grows and matures,
You are able to pass on these nutrients from yourself to the world around you.
Imagine that now,
See that now,
How the ecosystem is able to thrive when nature thrives.
And this exchange,
This pure circular exchange of energy is able to flow from the earth to you,
To others and back to you and back to the earth.
With this pure wide open loving energy,
With your roots wide and deep in the soil,
Feel yourself safe and protected and secure.
Feel as you grow and mature into this plant that your individuality is embraced,
That your hopes and dreams are received,
That a balance is kept.
See yourself surrounded by this beautiful color of green that is bright like new growth,
Vibrant,
Alive,
That is healthy and strong and safe.
Stay here as long as you need.
And when it is time for you to carry on,
Remember that this place is here for you always.
All you have to do is remember.
As you go about your day,
If you ever need a little help re-embracing your grounding cord,
Think of creative ways to invite all of your senses to connect again with Mother Earth.
Can you smell the flowers,
Breathe in the fresh air,
Feel the soft grass between your feet,
Eat something healthy like fruits or vegetables,
Whatever works for you,
Even listening to the wind as it dances through the leaves of the trees.
Remember this is here for you always.
Please come back to this whenever you need.
Thank you for coming today.
I hope to see you soon.
