This is a guided practice for grounding,
Stabilizing and strengthening our energy,
Taking a moment to center yourself wherever you are,
Inviting a deepening and a softening of the breath,
Breathing slowly and deeply into the belly,
Noticing how you feel,
Softening through the shoulders,
Seeing if you can bring more length through the spine and the torso,
Lengthening through the back of the neck,
Maybe a gentle tilt of the chin,
Letting your head be nice and balanced on the center line and taking your awareness now to the crown and imagining that the energy center there is like a flower starting to blossom,
Opening its petals to the sun and breathing in from the infinite,
In through your column of light that extends all the way through your being and up out the top of your head,
This pillar of light that connects you to the infinite.
Imagine that you can breathe in through that column,
Down through the center of your body,
Taking it all the way down to the base of the spine,
Imagining that the point at the base of the spine extends like a tree root as you exhale and that you plug yourself into the earth on the exhale.
Every inhale,
Breathing in from the infinite through your crown,
Down through the body,
Awareness to the base of the spine,
Exhale and send that energy further and further into the earth.
Use your breath,
Use your intention,
Plug yourself in.
Every inhale,
Breathing in from above,
Through the body,
Exhale,
Extend and send that tap root further and further from the base towards the center of the earth.
Imagine that you are extending your energy center well beyond where humans have interfered with the energy of the earth.
You're aiming deep,
Deep into the earth,
Into the clear,
Pure energy of Mother Earth.
Every breath,
Breathe in from above,
Exhale down through the body,
Send that tap root further and further into the earth.
As you bring the energy through your system and exhale through the base,
Also start to grow that root wider than your body.
So it's becoming fatter,
Wider and continues to extend into the earth,
Deeply grounding you,
Letting that wide base be a solid foundation.
Keep breathing in from above,
Infinite supply of energy coming in through your system,
Down through the body,
Exhaling through the base and connecting.
Breathe in from above,
Down through the body,
And this time also start to send out subsidiary roots from that central core.
So like a giant oak tree,
You've got a vast network of roots starting to emanate from that central tap root.
As you exhale into the earth,
Extending that network of roots in all directions for many,
Many kilometers or miles beyond where you are,
Connecting deeply into the nurturing energy of Mother Earth.
One more time,
In from above,
Take the energy through the body,
Exhale,
Sending those roots in all directions from the base of the spine.
And now,
When you breathe in,
We're changing the flow,
And we're breathing in from that network of roots,
Up from the clean,
Pure earth energy,
Up all the way through the network,
Up into the base of your spine and hold.
Breathe back into the earth through that network of roots.
And one more time,
Up from the network of roots,
Up into the base of the spine and hold.
And breathe normally and affirming in your own being,
I am stable.
I am safe.
I am strong.
I'm grounded.
I have an infinite source of support and energy from Mother Earth to support my health and well-being.
I'm supported by an abundance of all good things.
It's safe for me to be here,
Feeling your connection with Mother Earth and knowing that she's holding you.
