Settle into the space that you are in.
Relax and breathe.
Close your eyes.
Notice the movements of your body as you inhale and as you exhale.
Relax the shoulders further and breathe.
Allow yourself to feel the connection to what you are sitting or lying on.
Feel its strength as it supports you.
Relax further into the surface as you trust it to hold you fully.
Now I invite you to take your attention to your tailbone,
The very end of your spine.
And imagine a chord of energy growing down from that bone,
Growing down towards the earth.
See it travel through the different layers of earth.
It goes through the dirt and the stone and the water and the heat until finally it meets the crystalline centre of the earth.
And here that energetic chord is going to anchor in.
Feel the strength and the security of that connection.
Can you sense the energy of the earth?
Mother earth is very strong and very powerful.
She is willing to take your worries,
Your burdens,
Any heavy energy that you would like to release.
Send those things down the energetic chord and into the earth.
Consciously choose what to give her and what to let go of.
And direct it down that chord.
We'll sit here for a few minutes while we do this.
Remember,
Don't get hooked into any of those thoughts.
Just see them as energy and let them go.
If you notice that you've gone on a story,
Just bring yourself back and resume sending all of this energy that you don't need anymore.
Sending it down that chord.
You must be ready to let these energies go.
You must be willing to hand them over to mother earth.
When you've finished,
Breathe and notice the energy or the presence of the earth.
What she has taken from you,
She transforms into light.
And now noticing how do you feel?
Now we ask mother earth,
Mother earth,
To send you whatever it is that you need.
You can ask her for blessings,
Support,
Love,
Understanding.
Whatever it is that you need,
Just ask mother earth to send it to mother earth.
Visualize those things as light energy and see them rising up that energetic chord.
Rising up to your tailbone.
When it reaches there,
See it travel along your spine until it reaches your heart energy center in the middle of your chest.
See this energy enter that area as a beautiful light.
Feel it.
Allow each thing that you asked for to follow the same path into your heart.
And with each one,
Just pause to feel it.
Mother earth willingly gives us everything that we need.
We just have to ask.
I invite you now to feel gratitude for those gifts that you have received.
Also feel gratitude for all that mother earth provides for you.
When you have an intense feeling of gratitude,
Send that energy of gratitude down your spine,
Down that cord and into the crystalline center of the earth.
She receives this energy from you with gratitude of her own.
Can you sense the energy of this exchange?
Now bring your attention back to your heart space and just breathe and feel notice any changes that have taken place.
What feels different?
What feels greater?
We will maintain our connection with the earth as we go about our lives day to day.
If you wish,
You can stay here in meditation for a little longer,
Feeling your connection with mother earth.
And if you are ready,
You can bring yourself back into the room by deepening your breath and taking some small movements.
