This is Akasha and today we'll be doing a visualization meditation.
And visualization is a creative way to use your imagination to create and manifest that which you desire in life.
So this meditation that I'm offering today is for healing and purifying your body and getting your energy flowing.
It's an excellent thing to do in the morning when you first wake up or the beginning of any meditation period or really anytime you want to be relaxed and refreshed.
So take a moment now and lie down on your back with arms at your sides or with the hands clasped on the stomach or resting on the hips.
Remember sometimes it's nice to support the backs of the thighs so there's no tension that builds in the lower back.
So make any adjustments that you feel like you need to make to your body now.
Now close your eyes.
Relax.
Breathe gently,
Deeply and slowly.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Relax.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Relax.
One more round like that.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Relax.
Continue to breathe gently,
Deeply and slowly throughout the practice.
Begin to imagine that there's a glowing sphere of golden light surrounding the top of your head.
Breathe deeply and slowly in and out five times while you keep your attention on the sphere of light,
Feeling it radiate from the top of your head.
Now begin to allow your attention to move down to your throat.
Again,
Imagine a gold sphere of light emanating from your throat area.
Breathe slowly in and out five times with your attention on this light.
Now allow your attention to move down to the center of your chest.
Once again,
Imagine the golden light radiating from the center of your chest.
Again,
Take five deep breaths as you feel the energy expanding more and more.
Next,
Place your attention on your solar plexus or the area of your navel.
Visualize the sphere of golden light all around your midsection.
Breathe into it slowly five times.
Now begin to visualize the light glowing in and around your pelvic area.
Again,
Take five deep breaths,
Feeling the light energy radiating and expanding.
Finally,
Visualize the glowing sphere of light around your feet and breathe into it five more times.
Now imagine all six of the spheres of light glowing at once so that your body is like a strand of jewels radiating energy.
Breathe deeply and as you exhale,
Imagine energy flowing down along the outside of one side of your body from the top of your head to your feet.
As you inhale,
Imagine it flowing up along the other side of your body to the top of your head.
Circulate it around your body this way three more times.
Now begin to visualize the flow of energy going from the top of your head down along the front of your body to your feet as you slowly exhale.
As you inhale,
Feel it flow up along the back of your body to the top of your head.
Circulate the flow in this direction three more times.
Now begin to imagine that the energy is gathering at your feet and let it flow slowly up through the center of your body from your feet to your head,
Radiating from the top of your head like a fountain of light,
Then flowing back down the outside of your body to your feet.
Repeat this three more times.
Simply take a deep breath in,
A soft releasing sigh out,
And allow yourself to just have a moment to observe how you feel.
Feel how energy moves harmoniously throughout the entire body.
I hope that you feel balanced,
Stable,
And energized and ready to go throughout the rest of your day.
Namaste.
