Hello and welcome to your grounding meditation.
I would ask that if you like to take notes after your meditation just to grab a piece of paper or your journal and have that sitting nearby and then just get into a space that you can hold for 10 to 15 minutes where you're comfortable can be standing,
Sitting,
Lying down.
And if you need to pause the recording to get set up now is the time to do so.
Because this is a grounding meditation,
If possible,
To have bare feet on the floor it just adds an additional element to the grounding.
So I would ask that you close your eyes,
Relax your shoulders down and away from your ears.
Take a nice deep inhale and release.
Allow the tension to leave your body.
Inhale and release.
Allow the tension to drain out of your back,
Out of your jaw,
Your neck,
Your shoulders.
Inhale and release.
And just allow any remaining tension to leave as you allow yourself to start falling in and back.
You can allow your breathing to return to its natural rhythm and just allow yourself to keep falling in and back.
And as you move deeper in you will notice that you seem to be floating and the space that you're in could be completely dark,
Could have tiny lights like stars or various colors kind of like the northern lights.
Just notice and allow yourself to continue to relax deeper and deeper.
Draw your attention to the sound of my voice,
The sound of my drum,
The feel of your breath moving in and out of your lungs.
And as you ground into these things I would ask that you just draw your awareness to the fact that you're moving.
Doesn't matter which direction,
It doesn't matter which speed.
Any speed is perfect,
Any direction is perfect,
But you are moving.
Just allow yourself to continue to go deeper and deeper and at some point you will notice that you have stopped moving.
You are now in your sacred space.
This is the space which you carry with you always,
The space that is a hundred percent yours and where you are completely safe,
Secure and protected at all times.
You are in complete control here and nothing is allowed to enter without your permission.
So I just ask that you take a moment and draw your awareness to your surroundings and if this is your first time here just notice what is there in the landscape or items and if this is not your first time here just notice if anything is shifted or changed,
If there's anything new.
And once you've taken a moment to notice I would like you to draw your awareness to a space that's been created in your sacred space for you to sit.
This may be on the ground,
Maybe in a chair,
Maybe up in a tree,
But there will be a space that you are invited to sit and I would ask that you go there now.
Allow yourself to settle in and I would also ask that you place your hands on whatever surface is supporting you and just start to become aware of the energy coming up from the earth into your hands,
Into your feet,
Into your root chakra at the base of your spine.
I want you to draw your attention to your breath as you become aware that the energy flows in with your inhale and energy that no longer serves you moves out with your exhale.
Notice that as the energy is flowing in it's coming in your left side,
In from your foot,
Traveling up the left side of your body and cycling through and moving out the right side on your exhale.
I just want you to take a couple of breaths and just notice this cycle.
Now allow your awareness to be drawn to hundreds of tiny roots sprouting from the bottoms of your feet,
From your root chakra at the base of your spine and from your hands.
If you are on the ground those roots will go directly into the earth.
If you're in a chair they will just lengthen also directly into the earth.
Then if you're in a tree you are being asked to connect to the tree and the tree is connecting to the earth for you.
So those roots,
Your roots,
Are going to grow into the tree.
Just continue to draw your awareness to the roots as they grow deeper,
Thicker and stronger and they start to connect with the energy of Mother Earth and those roots are going all the way to the middle.
So we're just going to take a couple of breaths and allow them to really lengthen,
Widen and deepen your connection securing you to the earth.
And as you secure yourself to the earth I want you to notice a new awareness of a stronger energy,
The energy of Mother Earth Gaia herself.
And as you tune into her energy I want you to feel the love that she has for you,
The love that she has for you her child.
And I want you to tune into that sense of safety,
Security,
Love and protection that she has for you always.
Feel how supported you are,
How cradled you are in her arms and just draw your awareness to the new energy flowing through up through the left side on the inhale and out through the right side on the exhale.
Draw in her strength,
Draw in her security and just breathe out any doubt,
Any fear,
Any anxiety and just offer it to her for transmutation.
We're just going to take a couple of breaths here.
Now I want you to draw your awareness to a grid.
It will be on the ground beside you.
It will be covering the tree but it is connected directly with her and I want you to move your feet or your hands or both and just allow yourself to touch the lines of the grid and deepen your connection and I want you to imagine the cords growing out of your hands and out of your feet and attaching to this grid.
You may notice that the grid is a bright white light and that the cords coming out of your hands and feet and attaching to this grid,
If they aren't already bright white they will change once you attach to the grid.
I'll just give you a couple of breaths to do that and just feel a surge of energy that comes,
The sense of connection that comes to Mother Earth Gaia and to all of her children.
And we're going to keep those cords attached so that you always have access to her security,
Safety,
Love and protection.
That you may offer her your own love,
The love for those things that she offers you freely as well as any fear,
Anxiety,
Insecurity that you need help transmuting.
And so those cords are going to fade,
They are still attached but they are no longer in your awareness.
Take one last deep breath and I would ask that you stand up or climb down from the space that was created for your connection.
Take one more moment to look around your sacred space.
Give gratitude to Mother Earth Gaia.
Give gratitude for this experience you've just had and the deep grounding that this has given you,
Making you feel so solid and secure.
And now I want you to allow yourself to just relax your awareness of your sacred space and it will fade into the background.
And you will notice that you're back in the dark space,
Perhaps with stars,
Perhaps with light,
But you are traveling again and you are coming up and out,
Bringing with you always that sense of security and safety and grounding.
And as you continue to come up and out,
Wiggle your toes,
Wiggle your fingers,
Move your head around on your neck,
Shift your body and when you're ready,
Open your eyes.
Thank you so much for sharing your energy with me today.
Just give yourself a second to really bask in that feeling that this meditation has created for you and I hope you have a beautiful day.
