Hello and welcome back to the 20 day meditation challenge.
Today we are on day four.
Just take a moment to be proud of yourself for showing up and committing so far.
It takes a lot of courage and willpower to show up for yourself every day.
And so on day four today we are going to move through a meditation that's going to support us with self-confidence and our inner power.
By now you know,
Set up your space,
Make sure you will not be disturbed for the duration of this practice.
Feel free to pause if you need to go ahead and do so.
And let's begin.
So closing down your physical eyes,
Just taking a moment to scan the body.
Moving from head to toe,
Just noticing if there's any areas that we're holding a little bit of tension,
Some tightness,
Maybe a bit of worry,
Stress,
Or anxiety.
And if we come across those spaces,
Just shake them out a little bit.
Then when you are complete with your body scan,
Just bring the awareness to the breath.
Start to follow your inhale.
Noticing the places that open and expand as you breathe in,
And the areas that soften and release as you breathe out.
And with each inhale,
We deepen the breath a little bit more,
And we soften and melt in a little bit deeper with the exhale.
And then bringing your awareness to your heart.
Visualize a fire in your heart center.
Observing this fire.
Noticing if it's a small campfire,
A raging bonfire.
Observe this fire,
And then bring your awareness to the soles of your feet.
Begin to visualize roots growing down through your feet into the earth.
Sending these roots out far and wide,
And perhaps those roots connect with other tree roots,
Wrapping around crystals deep in the earth's lair.
Perhaps they travel down all the way to the core of the earth.
And once your roots have slowed and settled,
Take a deep breath in.
Complete breath out.
And as you inhale,
Feel these roots drawing up energy and support from the earth.
And with each inhale,
See that energy flowing through your feet,
Up the legs,
And stoking the fire in your heart.
Each inhale draws more energy and support up,
Stoking your inner flame,
Filling your body with nourishment.
Continue this breathing,
This visualization,
For 6 more full complete cycles of breath.
Each inhale,
Bringing up what you need from the earth to stoke your inner flame,
Releasing the visualization,
And bringing your awareness to the crown of your head.
A ray of light traveling from the crown of your head up into the heavens through the cosmos.
Each exhale,
You see that light reaching off into the distance,
Connecting to your source,
Guides your angels,
Your loved ones working in the light,
Your ancestors.
And as you breathe in,
See yourself channeling down their guidance,
Their strength,
Their support.
That beam of light channel to your inner strength,
From your connection to angels,
The universe,
Source,
Your guides and loved ones.
And see this strength and support pooling down into your heart center,
Stoking your inner flame,
The hearth within your body.
Continue this breathing,
This visualization,
For 6 more full complete cycles of breath.
And now bring the awareness back to your heart and the fire within your heart space.
Notice if the flames grew larger.
Perhaps it's putting off more heat than before.
Taking in,
Observing this light that lives within your heart space,
This flame of courage,
Confidence within yourself.
See your inner strength,
Supported and stoked by the very earth you walk upon.
By those who walked before you,
Your angels,
Your guides,
Your source supporting you.
Allow a sense of comfort to wash over you,
Knowing you can call upon these two powerful connections to stoke your inner flame,
To bring about confidence and courage when you need it.
And you can continue breathing here,
Connected to these two power places.
For as long as you would like.
And you can come up.
