Transcript
Hello everybody.
My name is Mary Lisa.
I'm the owner and founder of Spirit Collective,
Which is dedicated to your personal and spiritual empowerment.
Today we are going to be going through what I call the Roots and Colors meditation.
I've created this meditation to help you sort of release old toxic emotions and energies and call your own personal power back into your body so that you can be a more powerful co-creator.
So I want you to find a comfortable position and a quiet space.
Obviously there's going to be noise wherever you go and that's part of the process of learning to meditate.
But what is important is that your back is straight whether you're lying down or sitting up because that will allow the energy to flow more freely through and into your body.
And as for the breathing,
I want you to be able to breathe into your low belly,
Which is your sacral chakra.
So we're going to fill up your low belly with a big breathing,
Okay?
So here we go.
Alright,
So go ahead and close your eyes and with one of your hands over your low belly,
We're going to exhale all of our stale air together and audibly.
From here we're going to breathe deep into our low belly as much as you can.
And release it.
Your exhale will probably be longer than your inhale,
Which is good.
So inhale again and let it out.
Go ahead and do some of this deep breathing on your own.
Alright,
Coming back to you now.
You can go ahead and breathe naturally.
Next we're going to put our hand over our heart space.
It can be helpful to be your right hand because it will give you more access to that left side where your heart actually lies.
Now we're just going to focus on our heartbeat,
On the energy and vibration that lives within our heart space.
This is where the magic lives,
Guys.
This is where most of the information to our other body systems is created.
In our heart space,
Not actually our brains.
So it is important to focus our attention here every so often so that we can basically reset and rebalance our body systems,
Okay?
Now that was just a little body centered warm up.
What we're going to do now is imagine that from the root chakra,
Which is at the base of our spine,
Our tailbone,
We are going to energetically grow roots.
Just like a tree,
Just like flowers.
We're going to imagine that these roots are growing from the base of our spine down through our chair,
Through the cushions,
Down through the floor,
Through the building that we're in.
It's growing through cement and dirt and rubble down into the earth these roots are growing.
They climb over rocks and deeper and deeper they go.
Just imagine these roots coming from your spine.
These roots that you've planted have now reached their destination,
Which is the center of the earth.
And here your roots wrap around the core of our mother earth where all minerals and chemicals are residing.
And you notice that other roots are connected at the center as well,
Reminding you of our interconnectedness.
So from here we're going to keep our roots planted there,
But we're going to bring our attention back to the crown of our head now,
Keeping our roots planted.
And we're going to put the intention that we're going to drain sadness from our body down through our head.
Just imagine whatever sadness looks like for you,
Whether it's dirty water or sort of a dark cloud or mist flowing out of your body,
Down your head through your chest,
Through your core and down your tailbone through your root chakra.
You're going to watch this sadness be drained from your body.
Now it's going to flow down the roots and be deposited back into the core of our mother earth.
The earth is quite amazing because she'll take the energy that no longer serves us and transmute it.
She's going to dissipate it for us,
The ultimate alchemist.
Now we're going to take fear and limitation,
Bringing our awareness back to the crowns of our head.
Whatever fear and limitation looks like for you,
Just let it drain out of your body.
Let it flow out of your body,
Down your spine,
Down the roots that you've planted and watch it go through the earth and be deposited back at the core.
Okay,
Now we've gotten rid of whatever sadness and limitations have resided in us.
What other negative emotion,
Feeling or energy are you looking to get rid of today?
Whether it be comparison or grief,
Just let it drain out of your body and imagine what it looks like leaving your body and flowing down the root system that you firmly planted and watch it dissipate back into mother earth.
She takes it for us and from us so that we can be renewed.
And now as our roots are still connected to the center of the earth,
We're going to pull up her elemental energy through our roots into our own body.
So we have the intention here of bringing fresh,
New enlivening energy up into our body systems.
If you want to name the energy that you're bringing into your body,
You can go ahead and do that.
I'm going to name joy that I'm going to bring into my body and opportunity and creativity.
But you can go ahead and name whatever you'd like.
We're going to bring it up from our root system in the earth and breathe it up,
Up,
Up our roots.
So go ahead and take some deep breaths here.
And as this new fresh energy reaches your root chakra,
Before it enters your body,
We're going to breathe it up together.
Okay.
So we're going to allow this new,
Brilliant energy to kind of be brought into our lower pelvic region,
Right over our root and sacral chakra.
And the root and sacral chakra are where a lot of trapped emotions and traumas live.
So we're going to let this new fresh energy heal that kind of feel it swirl around those lower two chakras,
Releasing any negativity and raising your vibration.
If it's helpful,
You can use your hand to,
To circle over these chakras so that you can feel the energy actually moving.
Now we're going to bring the energy up into our solar plex chakra,
Which is right at the apex of the ribs.
Our sense of self lives here.
And so we're going to breathe up that fresh new energy,
Whatever it looks like for you and allow it to renew our sense of self.
Go ahead and move that energy around.
Okay,
Now we're going to bring this fresh new energy from the earth into our heart space.
Our heart space is where trust and love,
Love for others,
Love for self is facilitated.
So like we spoke about earlier,
This is sort of the center of our being of our soul.
So it's really important that we let the energy kind of resonate here and renew and refresh us.
Okay,
Let's bring the energy now into our throat chakra.
And this is where our thyroid gland lives,
Which is a lot of metabolism and hormones being made there.
It's also our voice,
Our truth.
This is where our truth is created with a capital T.
So all four chakras below that have built on each other,
Our emotions,
Our sense of self,
Our ability to love so that we can speak it and communicate it and breathe a life into it.
That's what the throat chakra is all about.
It's about breathing your truth that you've created in the lower chakras to life.
So it's really important to be able to stand true and authentic.
So let this new energy resonate there.
All right,
Now we're going to breathe it into the center of our heads.
You can put your focus or even your finger right in between your eyebrows.
This is your third eye,
Your seat of intuition,
Inner knowing,
And where you can grow your psychic abilities.
We all have them,
We just need to be more attuned to them.
So I really want you to feel the energy here.
And this is where the pineal gland resides.
This pineal gland is often calcified by the chemicals we absorb throughout our day.
So putting your intention on it can help bring it back to life.
So we're going to let this new earth energy that we're breathing up kind of reside within our head and clear it all up,
Enhancing our understanding and knowing beyond the senses.
Finally,
We're going to breathe up this earth energy to our crown chakra on top of our head,
Where the pituitary,
The master gland,
Lies.
A lot of chemical information being sent from it.
And this is our connection to source,
To higher self,
To angels,
The universe.
It's our kind of our antenna,
Our message receiver.
So being connected to all those higher energies out there is really important for any spiritual or personal development.
All right,
From here I really want you to imagine this energy that you've breathed up through your entire physical body.
What color is it?
What texture is it?
Because now as we have breathed it up through the top of our head,
Through the crown of our head,
It's going to spill out over us,
Kind of creating a shield or veil.
And this shield or veil is what's going to protect all this energy work that we have just done on ourselves.
Because it is very important that you know,
All this cleansing and creating that we've done,
That we set boundaries for it.
Our energy gets tangled in so many other places,
Things,
Situations and feelings throughout just the day that we've gotten rid of the stuff we no longer wanted.
We've brought our own power back to us and now we need to protect it from getting entangled again.
So I want you to set the intention that this shield or veil that is now spilling out from the top of the crown of your head,
That it's going to protect you from any native or lower vibrations and frequencies.
Now it is permeable to things that are for your highest good,
Things that are going to add value and benefit to your highest self.
So it's not meant to block you off from the world,
It's just meant to protect and set boundaries.
So now that you're fully in your body and aware of your power,
I want you to sort of gauge how you feel within your body.
And this is what we're going to create every day.
And this sort of meditation is really important for a manifestation practice because you cannot manifest if you're bleeding out your energy or your energy is entangled with the people,
Places and things of the day.
So I really hope that you enjoyed this meditation and that is where we will end it.
