This following guided visualization focuses on grounding and merging our energy with the energy of the earth.
This is a beneficial way to bring the root chakra back into alignment and create a stronger foundation.
Take a moment to settle into your body,
Either sitting or laying down.
Make sure you are comfortable and will not be disturbed for the duration of this meditation.
Take a few deep breaths,
Inhaling deeply through your nose and out through your mouth.
With each breath,
Allow yourself to surrender,
Let go and relax completely.
Either with your eyes open or closed,
Bring your attention to the base of your spine,
To the root chakra.
From this area of your body,
You will begin to visualize roots growing.
Use their colour,
Texture,
Length,
Size and density.
When the image is clear in your mind,
Become aware of how these roots are growing longer and longer.
Visualize them moving down through the ground into the soil and the earth below.
Notice how these roots create a strong energetic connection with the earth and become aware of how you are being fully supported and held by the physical ground below you.
Take a moment to visualize the exchange of energy that is taking place between your body and the earth via these roots.
Continue to visualize vital energy flowing into the roots and into your body,
Resting at the location of your root chakra.
As this flow of energy continues,
Recognize how you are bringing more and more health,
Strength and stability into your body.
Bring to your awareness a red ball of light at the area of your root chakra which is glowing brightly and expanding here.
Continue to observe this image for a minute,
Becoming aware of how this red ball of light is flowing with ease and interacting with the energy of the earth.
What flows into the red ball of light also flows outwards,
Going back into the earth.
Keep your awareness on this continual cycle of energy that is giving and receiving the most nourishing energy and light.
And as we bring this short guided visualization to a close,
Take a moment to sense a greater amount of balance and harmony that rests in your root chakra.
Recognize how you feel supported,
Secure and grounded in the awareness that these roots are always here to nourish you in the best way possible.
