Integrity has been knocking on my door recently,
Asking me to keep rewriting the preface of who I am and what I stand for.
It has called itself out to me through the most uncomfortable situations and heartbreaking moments.
It has called on the parts of me that have no limbs,
No backbone,
No ground to stand on.
I have watched myself get washed away to sea and pulled from my feet in the most unapologetic currents.
I have watched pieces of me scatter themselves across oceans toward many others,
Leaving me clutching for any last bit of me I can find.
I have grown distant from myself,
From my source,
From my home,
From my roots.
I keep speaking with half my mouth closed,
Seeing with a heavy heart and moving with no might left in me.
I have grown unsure how to speak my truth and speak honestly with integrity.
So now,
When the ground beneath me calls,
I hear its whisper and I sit cross-legged,
Ready to root and feel what it wants to offer me.
I would like for you to listen to the calling of your integrity in this moment too.
Arriving now in a comfortable position,
Sitting cross-legged,
Allowing your body to take comfort here,
Spine strong and lifted with a soft front,
Palms placed on your thighs facing upwards towards the sky.
Take three deep breaths,
Feeling yourself creating space within your body,
Sending waves of air down to the base of your spine and up to the crown of your head.
Breathing in,
Rising through the crown of your head,
Exhaling,
Rooting through the base of your spine.
Breathing in,
Rising through the crown of your head,
Exhaling,
Rooting through the base of your spine.
Breathing in,
Rising through the crown of your head,
And exhaling,
Rooting through the base of your spine.
Continuing with a natural and effortless but deep breath,
As you use each exhale to root you deeper and deeper into the ground beneath you.
Feeling the breath held within your spine flowing down to the earth's core,
Through layers of earth,
Soil,
Water and fire.
Feel this energetic cord as your roots take their place in this world.
Today,
You connect deeply and ground into your most unshakable and undivided self.
Today,
You root deep and aim high,
Expanding beyond body and into the world that holds you.
And with your next purposeful and full breath,
Breathe down into the cord that connects your spine to the core of this earth.
Feeling your many roots take form,
Spreading wild and anchoring themselves,
Anchoring you into your fullest.
With waves of current,
With each breath,
Gracing and reaching far,
Send these energetically charged words through your roots.
I belong and am wanted here.
I am of this world and know my worth and value here.
My value is not something I must seek,
For I know I hold the highest value by just being.
I am grateful for the space I have been given in this world and I fill it with my fullness.
I fill myself with a deep knowing of who I am,
What I believe in,
What I care deeply for.
I love in accordance to my relief system and I maintain honesty and integrity through my heart centre.
Feeling your inhale now rise from the core of the earth into your spine and directly up into your heart space.
Visualising now a white light rise from the depths of your roots,
Vibrating up into the centre of your chest between rib and bum.
Tilting your chin up,
Face to the sky.
When we have strong roots,
High integrity and our feet planted firmly in a self we love,
We are able to move with bravery.
We are able to quiet the noise from outside of us and learn to listen to our hearts.
Choosing over and over to do the right thing and never spending our time or energy questioning our truest,
Most authentic self.
When we have strong roots,
It allows for every part of us that sits above the ground to soften,
To create a soft heart,
An open,
Lighter and more gentle self.
A more sure-footed step and in turn more space to be just as we are.
Visualising now your heart as a channel of white light,
Birthed in the centre of your body and beaming out ahead of you.
I ask you to place your eyes inside your heart and see through your heart centre.
With your nourishing breath flowing up from the earth's core,
Up your spine and out through your heart.
Breathing in and out,
Cleansing,
Nourishing,
Seeing and knowing that you are safe,
You are loved and you are supported far more than you can imagine.
Opening and feeling through your heart centre,
Feeling deeply and connecting to the beautiful energy that resides here.
The energy that wants to bathe you in compassion,
Trust,
Balance,
Pure intention,
Calling for love and honesty.
For purity and truth to pour out of you.
And allowing the white light to carry these fragments of your heart out into your presence and out into your future.
Allowing this light to purify the room you are sat in,
To cast itself over the future you long for.
Whether you call for small changes or greater shifts,
Allow this high vibrational energy to clear the path ahead.
Removing any self doubts or desires to listen to others before you listen to yourself.
Remove the chains that bind your self expression to a stagnant and unforgiving face.
That leave you under unforgiving currents or drifting away with no ground to place yourself steady.
Allow this light to cleanse any beliefs laying dormant in your mind that you must divide yourself amongst others to provide them with the life they want.
See through this detoxifying light into a future of trust,
Of being centred and balanced in body and mind.
Of drifting not away from self but away from the very things that keep you distant from self.
Today you beam a new way forward,
A rooted and more hopeful way forward.
New footprints on lands that welcome you with acceptance and wanting,
Desire and adoration for everything you are.
The desire to focus entirely on you,
Your wants and your needs.
Today you see the places that welcome your sure footed and honest self to walk forward.
Today you follow the direction your heart wants to take you in.
Allowing the energy you feel here to settle as you welcome yourself back into your fullest expression of self.
Remember as you walk this world to root your values and morals deep into the earth,
Unapologetically and surely.
Question everything that does not align with your truth and wish well all the things that must fall to your side with no judgement,
No desire to change them,
Just acceptance and gratitude.
Taking three deep breaths into your body,
Gently inviting yourself back into this present moment.
Bringing movement to your hands,
Fingers,
Feet and toes.
Moving your head gently from side to side.
Go gently today,
Be kind to yourself always.
