Greetings everyone.
This is Jess with Jess Be Inspired and today's meditation is inspired by the beautiful energy of the sun.
The sun represents life,
Influence,
Strength.
It represents our egos and spirit.
The sun rules over fathers,
Husbands and children and it helps us to take command and lead in our lives.
The sun is bright and it helps to give people the determination to succeed.
The sun provides strength to all other planets.
The sun's circle symbolizes spirit and the potential for our development.
It's aligned with the yang energy which is positive,
Masculine,
Warm and dry.
So now let's allow ourselves to harness and be guided by the beautiful sun's energy.
First just get yourself as comfy as possible wherever you are.
Taking a nice deep breath in through your nose and gently letting that go out through your mouth.
Let's do that two more times and on this next inhale softly just close your eyes.
Taking a deep breath in through your nose and gently letting that go out through your mouth.
One last time taking a nice deep breath in through your nose and gently letting that breath go out through your mouth.
Now let's cultivate this breath a little bit deeper by slowly breathing in for the count of five and exhaling out for the count of six.
Let's do this two times together.
Slowly letting that breath in for the count of five and gently letting that breath go out to the count of six.
One last time slowly breathing in for the count of five and gently letting that breath go out to the count of six.
Now just float with your breath harnessing the sun's energy.
By first asking yourself what areas of your life do you wish to shine more light into right now?
Perhaps a little more sunshine.
Just breathing in all those areas and envisioning this beautiful sun's energy coming into those areas.
With every breath,
Breathing in that sunshine and seeing it radiate over all these areas of your life.
Now asking yourself what areas of your life would you like to bring more warmth to?
Seeing that warmth entering into your heart with every breath.
Letting that warmth just expand in your heart.
Perhaps even sending a little warmth to yourself in this precious moment.
Just asking yourself what areas of your life would you like to bring more strength to?
With every breath,
Just breathing in that strength,
Letting it fill your body.
Now taking this even further by harnessing all this beautiful energy inspired by the sun and let's take some of that sun's energy and shine it bright,
Expanding that sunshine out to someone else that may also benefit from its strength,
Its brightness,
Its power,
Its determination.
Just simply envision that warmth reaching out to them.
That warmth is just flowing from your heart to theirs.
That strength from your being to theirs.
And we'll take this even deeper and really get connected to our solar plexus chakra,
Our personal power center that connects and aligns so beautifully with all of this sun's energy.
By starting to see the sunshine expand with every breath from your solar plexus as you continue to gently breathe in and flow out.
And we'll use this beautiful mantra,
Surya Ritam.
Surya means sun in Sanskrit.
Ritam is the rhythm of the sun's energy.
Surya Ritam.
Surya Ritam.
Just letting yourself breathe in this mantra and breathe into your solar plexus and let the sun's energy continue to expand for just about a minute here.
Surya Ritam.
Surya Ritam.
Surya Ritam.
Breathing that beautiful mantra in.
And now just allow yourself to let it go.
Let's seal in all of this beautiful sun's energy by thinking of just one intention.
Something that you'd like to see unfold that speaks to your power,
Your strength,
Your determination.
Just take this intention and just place it in our solar plexus chakra.
Breathing that intention in.
And on the exhale,
Just letting it go.
One last time,
Breathing in that intention.
And gently releasing it.
I hope that this meditation serves you well and reminds you to keep looking up at the sun reminding yourself of your intention,
Your strength,
Your personal power,
And determination.
When you are inspired,
You are in spirit.
Namaste.
