This meditation is intended to be a tool to help ease any energy blocks in the solar plexus due to repeated trauma from chronic intestinal inflammation.

This is intended for those suffering from ulcerative colitis,

Crohn's disease,

And IBS,

But it can be enjoyed by all those accepting.

Use this meditation to stimulate digestion while laying in bed,

On a yoga mat,

Sitting upright in a chair,

Or even on the toilet.

Follow my cues and inwardly digest these positive visualizations and affirmations,

And return to this meditation whenever you may need,

Allowing it to penetrate your subconscious in increasingly positive ways.

Sitting or laying in whatever position is comfortable for you,

Straighten out your spine,

And release the shoulders away from the ears.

Allow your eyes to close and your chin to rest beneath the level of your forehead,

Elongating the back of your neck.

Notice any thoughts you're having,

And then return to this present moment.

Every time you find your mind wanders off with a thought,

Acknowledge that fact,

And then gently guide your mind back to this moment,

Back to the senses,

Back to your breath.

Relax your jaw and the space between the eyebrows.

Begin to visualize every sip of air that's entering your body as a bright,

White,

Healing light.

Breathe deep into your belly as you see and feel the white light growing just beneath your belly button,

Bit by bit.

Every inhale,

Allow the light to expand,

And every exhale,

Let the light diffuse through your stomach,

Allowing the healing energy to seep into your organs.

Feel the pulse of the light growing warmer and warmer as your body gets heavier and heavier.

Let yourself be and breathe.

Notice how the light begins to absorb the color yellow as it gently rotates clockwise throughout your stomach.

Listen to the sounds of your digestion.

Feel the comfort of food moving seamlessly through your intestines.

Feel how your body is absorbing all the necessary nutrients and sending all excess material to be discarded with ease.

Visualize how you may feel after an effortless bowel movement.

See in your mind's eye the relief and accomplishment associated with painlessly disposing of food you enjoyed with no remorse or guilt attached.

Feel the release and ease of the muscles in your stomach as they open and allow the food to move harmoniously through you.

Nourishing your body along the way,

Each breath sent to your belly is feeding into the healing energy rotating through your entire system.

Bring your attention now to your pelvic floor and anus.

Let the light seep down into these areas with ease.

Just the act of having your attention in this gentle area gives the muscles permission to release any remaining tension.

Feel the relief of no longer needing to strain this area which has been through so much trauma.

Allow the healing light to pulse inside of the anus,

Spreading its energy up through the rectum,

The coccyx,

And the sacrum,

Reconnecting back to the light rotating through your organs.

Feel your entire digestive system.

Feel your entire digestive system.

Feel every organ working effortlessly for your body,

For your life.

Sometimes we think that our digestion will fail us if we do not have control over it,

So we try so hard to control it.

As you exhale,

Release this thought from your programming.

Our bodies take the cues from our minds.

Think of your body as your child.

Yelling at a naughty child will only cause them to act out more,

Following your example of yelling,

But show that same misbehaving child respect and unconditional love and understanding,

And they will follow that more positive example you set.

Our mind is one of the biggest things that can get in the way of our body doing its job.

It isn't always easy to find our energy blocks and understand them.

It is a constant effort,

But any amount of time spent in the present moment will bring you closer to understanding and therefore to healing,

Which is not a linear process.

Quieting the noise and listening to your body with unconditional love and patience is your key.

As you feel the rhythm of your own heartbeat,

Give thanks to your body for giving you the gift of life every day.

Feel a sense of gratitude for the ability you have to hear these healing words and be in a body that allows you to be conscious in this beautiful life.

Take a moment to let this practice and these messages sink into your subconscious,

Sealing them into intentions for your daily life,

Allowing them to be accessed at any point whenever you may need.

Thank yourself for taking the time to care for your body in such a gentle and effective way.

Remember that each and every time you return to this meditation,

You will heal your stomach and mind in increasingly positive ways.

Whenever you are ready,

You may open your eyes and return your awareness to your surroundings,

Ready to go about your day with effortless digestion and in a state of energized peace,

Sending love and light from my heart to yours.

Thank you.

This meditation is so powerful. I especially love the part about treating your body with respect instead of trying to control. A great reminder to allow the body to do what it can do.

IBS has dominated my life since I was a child. Now in my 40s I've only recently allowed myself to accept I have issues with anxiety and I feel like I'm holding it within my gut. Listening to this session was like a meaningful conversation with someone who understands. It is fantastic, and I will return to it regularly. Thank you.
