As we begin to settle in for this guided visualization,
I invite you to find a stationary position that feels most comfortable for you.
So perhaps that is a seated position.
Maybe you're seated on a chair or on the floor or sofa or somewhere else.
Or perhaps you're lying down.
Please find a position that feels supportive of your body as you begin to settle in and bring awareness to your breathing with your breath at its natural rhythm.
Bringing awareness to your breath as you settle in right where you are.
I invite you to imagine a beautiful thick golden rope descending from the sky,
Slowly making its way towards you,
Toward the top of your head or your crown.
Your crown chakra or sahaswara.
This beautiful golden rope moving through you down to your third eye,
Agnya chakra.
Continuing to descend towards your throat.
Chakra visuddha.
Moving down and through your heart chakra,
Anahata.
This beautiful golden rope continuing to move through down to your solar plexus chakra or manipura.
Moving down to your sacral chakra,
Sva-ristana.
Moving down through your root chakra,
Mulattara.
As this rope continues down towards the earth,
Imagine an anchor appearing at the bottom of the rope as the rope continues down through the earth,
Through the grass and the dirt and the sediment moving and making its way down to the core of Mother Earth,
Sensing the grounding energy of the earth.
So sense this connection all the way from the sky or all the way from the heavens through your body down to the earth,
Providing alignment and grounding.
Run this cord of energy,
Run this cord of grounding that reaches down deep into Mother Earth and all the way back up to the sky or universe.
Sense this connection and this grounding through this beautiful golden rope.
And then I invite you to imagine a beautiful golden sphere or globe right at your solar plexus,
A few inches above your navel.
So imagine this beautiful golden sphere beginning to grow in all directions,
So growing in front of you,
To the sides of you,
Behind you,
Above you and below you.
Imagine this beautiful golden sphere beginning to get larger.
You can sense this sphere now at your chest and your upper back,
At your bottom and legs as it continues to grow in all directions.
Until the sphere is so large that you are now inside of the sphere,
Enveloped in this golden sphere of protection.
So the sphere is in front of you,
Behind you,
To the sides of you,
Above you and below you.
And you also have that grounding cord running from deep into Mother Earth all the way up to the sky,
Reaching through the universe.
Using this grounding and protection.
With an awareness of this grounding and protection,
I invite you to inhale with a closed mouth.
So breathing in through your nose,
Breathing out through your mouth.
Breathing in through your nose,
Sensing that golden cord.
Breathing out through your mouth,
Breathing through that golden sphere of protection.
With this sense of grounding and protection,
I invite you to slowly begin bringing movement back into your body.
Perhaps wiggling your fingers and your toes or slowly moving your head from side to side and taking any last movements that may feel supportive for your body.
Knowing that you are moving in a sphere of protection and a cord grounding you to the earth when you feel ready.
I invite you to lift your gaze or gently blink open your eyes.
Maybe you feel held and protected.
