Closing down your eyes,
Or softening your gaze,
So that you're able to turn your awareness inward.
Let your breath carry you inside,
As if with each breath you're drawing more of yourself home.
Feel the rise and fall of your chest and belly.
And with each exhale,
Allow your body to soften a little more.
As if with each breath you are allowing more of your body to be held.
To be supported by the furniture or ground beneath you.
Gently allow your awareness to rest in your heart space.
Connecting into your heart and begin to gather up your energy.
Imagine it collecting in your heart,
Becoming stronger,
More solid with each breath.
Then begin to send this energy down,
Down through your belly,
Your hips,
Your legs,
Your feet,
And into the earth beneath you.
Sending your energy down through the layers of rock and soil.
Past the bones of the beings who have come before you.
Through all of the layers of the earth.
Until you reach the very centre,
This deep molten layer.
Feel into this deep,
Grounded earth energy.
And let yourself tap into it.
Connecting in and allow it to merge with your own energy.
With your next inhale,
Begin to draw it up.
Back up through the layers of the earth.
Back up through your feet,
Your legs,
Your hips.
And allow it to anchor in your heart.
Letting this energy of the earth merge with your own heart energy.
Now gather your energy up again and this time send it up.
Up past your throat,
Into your head,
And out the crown of your head.
Sending it straight up past the clouds,
Into the sky,
And up to the stars.
Connect in with this energy here.
Dynamic and vast,
Yet supportive.
And with your next inhale,
Begin to draw this energy of the stars back down.
Through your head,
Past your throat.
And once more anchoring it in your heart.
This time feel your energy merging with the energy of the stars and the energy of the earth.
Become aware of how your heart feels.
Notice your own energy.
Notice how you are held in this column of alignment.
Between the grounded loving energy of the earth and the vast expansiveness of the stars.
Supported and loved exactly as you are.
