Transcript

Welcome to today's practice.

I'm Shana Moyer-Seminyay and today we will be going through a full chakra alignment.

This meditation is best done lying down comfortably on a yoga mat or a soft surface that can give you comfort and stability at the same time.

Wrapping up in a warm blanket,

Clearing your mind of thoughts,

Allowing your breath to come nice and easy today.

You'll be hearing some Tibetan singing bowls in the background.

These have been known to balance and align chakras for thousands of years.

Today as we discover the seven chakras in our body,

Energy centers that can be accessed simply by drawing our awareness to them,

Holding our focus there and releasing the energy that they hold.

Place your hands on your sides,

On your lap,

With your palms facing up,

Open to receiving light and guidance today.

Picture a golden beam of light traveling up your spine from the base of your tailbone all the way up through your crown at the top of your head.

This beam of light will keep you stable and strong when doing a chakra meditation.

It's pure and beautiful.

It lives inside of you.

Today we will touch on each one of the seven chakras.

For a more advanced and in-depth practice,

We have specific meditations that pertain to the individual chakras in our podcast channel.

Take a deep cleansing breath.

Exhale your worries and stress,

Everything that may stand in your way from an effortless practice today.

And let's begin.

There are seven chakras that span from the base of your tailbone all the way up through the crown of your head.

These are energy centers which can become blocked.

And today as we bring awareness to them,

We unleash any energy that is there and we allow our bodies to connect in a very holistic and spiritual way.

The first chakra is the root chakra.

It is located at the very base of your body in the area of the perineum.

Bring your attention here.

Bring your focus here.

Do you feel a tingling sensation?

When our awareness is brought to one of the chakras,

Energy pathways are opened and our physical experience is heightened.

Often survival tendencies are held in our root chakra.

It is a place where passion builds and is associated with the color red.

It also holds anger,

Lust,

Pain,

And agitation.

Holding your awareness here for a moment,

The color red growing in intensity,

Releasing anything that needs to be freed here.

Travel your awareness up through your pelvis to your sacral chakra.

This is where attachment to people and things is held and you may feel an emotional release as you focus your energy here.

The sacral chakra is associated with the color orange.

So at this time you may want to imagine your energy as an orange light.

It is where we hold emotion.

It is here that we cage the things that we are not ready to let go of.

It is also a place of creativity and reproduction.

It is here that new life is created and here that can be held and healed in times of reproductive distress simply by focusing your attention,

Your awareness,

And letting that energy go.

Hold your awareness here for a moment.

Let go of anything that has been held here for a period of time.

Release it and breathe healing into your emotional energy center.

If it feels right to you,

You can even shake or rock your hips from side to side to release that energy in a physical way.

Bring your awareness up toward your belly button.

This is the third chakra called the solar plexus.

This is where your goals manifest themselves and where your personal power lives.

When you are feeling a lack of self-confidence or need some emotional strength,

Draw the energy out from your solar plexus.

The color for this third chakra is yellow.

It is bright and powerful,

Warm and inviting.

It harnesses your personal power and it breathes a synthesis of ideas and feelings,

Judgments and opinions.

Hold your awareness here at your solar plexus for an extended a moment of time.

Release any judgment or opinion.

Set boundaries that need to be formed for protection.

Let go of fear and ego.

The next chakra is located at your heart and it is very simply called the heart chakra.

It is a place of compassion and love where your personal surrender and freedom exists.

Associated with the color green,

Your heart chakra is a gateway to a higher self.

It is here that the love of all things lives,

Including your love of self.

For women,

It is here that the love of our children grows and becomes abundant.

In your heart chakra,

You are able to access forgiveness.

Take a moment now,

Holding your awareness here,

To forgive yourself for anything that may be causing emotional distress within you.

Breathe a healing breath of acceptance and compassion.

As we move up through our body,

We access our throat chakra,

Which is associated with the color blue.

This is where our deepest communication lives and those with energy blockages in the throat chakra often have difficulty expressing their true self through their spoken words.

Bring your awareness to your throat,

Releasing a blue light of energy.

In the throat chakra,

Our sense of responsibility,

Verbal awareness,

Manifestation and timing,

They all live here.

Hold your awareness here and think of the words that you long to say but somehow can't.

Perhaps for you that means the expression of love or concern for someone or standing up for yourself or something.

Release those words,

Give life and breath to them,

And let them go.

The sixth chakra is found at the center of your forehead and it's known as our third eye and also as the brow.

Here intuition,

Insight,

Clairvoyance are all present and it is here that we access our sense of knowing.

The light of your awareness in your third eye is a beautiful violet purple.

You have a knowing beyond words here and you can access it anytime just by simply bringing your focus to your third eye.

Release the energy here and open your subconscious to a higher state of knowing.

Our last chakra is found at the very top of your head,

The crown.

It is brilliant and white.

The light is pure and all-encompassing.

At our crown we are able to connect with all that exists in this world and all that will exist in the world hereafter.

There is a universal connectedness in consciousness.

It is accessed when we open our crown chakra and allow that brilliant white light to emanate from our being.

It connects us to the universe outside of our body,

To our higher self.

When our chakras are in alignment our energy flows freely throughout our body.

We are happier,

Healthier,

Centered and grounded.

As a final step in your chakra practice today I invite you to visualize a beam of light going from your root chakra to your sacral,

From your sacral through your solar plexus,

Weaving through your heart and opening your throat through your third eye and finally your crown.

Visualize this beam of light as a rainbow of light changing as it reaches each new chakra.

Red at your root,

Orange in your sacral,

Yellow at your solar plexus,

Green at your heart,

Blue in your throat,

Violet at your third eye and white in your crown.

In this moment you are centered along a beam of beautiful and abundant light.

You are rooted to the ground and yet suspended in the universe.

Your energy flows freely.

You are one with your mind,

Your body and your spirit.

You are all knowing.

You are connected to all that is and all that will be.

Your consciousness flows far after this moment in time.

You are one.

Stay in these peaceful moments for as long as you would like today.

Feeling connected within your body,

Supported by the earth and yet suspended in the universe.

In your own time,

Whenever it feels right for you and your practice,

Bringing yourself back to present moments,

Using the chimes of the bowls as your guide and opening your eyes.
