Welcome,
Fellow traveler.
Have you been told that you're not grounded in your body?
Maybe you've taken a few spills lately or simply felt out of touch with yourself.
It's not uncommon to lift your spirit out of the body when stress levels are high or you've been in chronic pain.
It can feel like a reprieve from the burdens of being human.
In this meditation,
You are invited to reunite your body,
Mind,
And spirit.
It's important to be rooted in your human skin and bones.
That's what we signed up for and is a necessary ingredient for living a healthy,
Happy,
And fulfilled life.
So make yourself comfortable and let's begin with three centering and cleansing breaths.
On the exhale,
Add in the shhhh sound like you were calming a crying baby.
This sound connects with your liver and helps to release any pent-up frustrations.
Next,
Bring your awareness to the base of your spine,
To your root chakra.
This is your portal to the Earth.
Breathe in whatever way feels comfortable to you as you imagine your pelvis swirling with warm red light.
On an exhale,
Imagine sending your root energy down into the Earth.
With each breath,
Feel your energy move through the layers of topsoil and into the underground waterways.
Keep going deeper as you make your way down through the bedrock.
You are an explorer charting new paths as you make your way home again.
You are almost there.
Feel the fire as you enter the Earth's molten core.
You are in Pachamama's womb,
A place of creativity,
Safety,
And uncensored,
Unfettered love.
As you anchor your energy here,
Take a few moments to appreciate how the Earth protects and strengthens you.
On the next inhale,
Make your way back to the Earth's surface and into your root chakra,
Inviting the Earth's energy to flow with you.
When you are back into your body,
Notice how your root chakra is brimming with passion for life.
On an inhale,
Flow your energy up the body and into your belly or sacral chakra.
In a vibrant orange light dancing in your dantian,
You may feel your inner child wake up ready to play.
On another in-breath,
Keep flowing energy up your spine and into your solar plexus,
The gateway to your inner sun.
The golden light of this chakra glows even brighter when mixed with the Earth's fire.
Now bring your awareness into your heart center,
The seed of love and compassion.
Notice how your heart opens and expands when it is filled with the Earth's immense presence.
Keep going as you flow energy into your throat,
On your way to connecting your head and heart.
Whatever words have been left unspoken are given their freedom.
Your energy,
Fueled by the Earth's vitality,
Picks up steam as it flows into your third eye.
The violet light of this chakra shines stronger as your mind engages more fully with your grounded body.
And then your energy bursts through the top of your head,
Your portal to the heavens.
Feel how your energy reaches for the stars and to your soul's destiny.
You are a living,
Breathing conduit between Mother Earth and Father Sky.
On an exhale,
Invite the starlight to flow into your crown and down through your body.
Feel the mixing of the white light from above with the fire from below as this energy travels past your throat,
Into your heart,
Out your solar plexus,
Into your belly,
Into your heart,
Into your body,
And finally rests in your root.
You are a bridge,
Dear one,
Between heaven and earth.
How light is your spirit now comfortably housed in your body,
Protected and nurtured by the Earth,
And inspired by the vast universe beyond?
