This meditation is designed to be practiced in the shower.
However,
If you're unable to be in the shower now,
You can just visualise yourself in the shower,
Welcoming the water onto your skin through your mind's eye.
Welcome.
This is your space.
You are safe here.
Let's begin.
I'd like you to close your eyes and step back into the water,
Allowing it to run over your back with your feet comfortably apart,
Your arms where they feel comfortable and the water at the temperature and pressure that is perfect for you.
We'll start now by taking three deep breaths of the glorious misty air surrounding you.
Inhale through your nose,
Allowing this breath deep into your lung,
Swirling,
Cleansing and exhale through your mouth,
Releasing the energy that does not serve your highest good.
Traveling the breath up to your head this time,
Inhale through your nose,
Allow it to swirl within and around your head.
And exhale,
Releasing the energy here that does not serve your highest good.
With the breath landing on your heart chakra this time,
Inhale,
Allow the breath to swirl in and around this space.
And exhale,
Releasing the energy here that does not serve your highest good.
Allow your body now to fall into its natural breathing rhythm.
Position yourself under the water now,
Allowing the warm water to stream down onto your neck.
Allow your head to tilt back now until the beautiful warm water stream finds its home on your crown chakra.
Allowing the water to flow directly onto your crown chakra,
Observe the way that it trickles down your body,
The way that it flows down your skin.
You might notice it trickling down your scalp,
Cascading over your neck,
Flowing all the way down your back,
Caressing your buttocks and hips.
Feel the way the water flows over and around your feet,
Around your toes and leaves your body in this moment,
Taking with it all of the energy that no longer serves your highest good.
Hear the water fall,
Connecting with the ground.
Listen to the water as it washes away down the drain,
Leaving your body in this moment,
Taking with it the energy that no longer serves your highest good.
Gently move now,
Allowing the cleansing stream of water to connect with the back of your neck.
Notice the way that the flow of water has changed,
Flowing down your back,
Flowing over your buttocks,
Flowing down your legs,
Swirling around your feet and toes,
Leaving your body in this moment,
Taking with it all of the energy that no longer serves your highest good.
Slowly now,
And ever so gently,
Begin to sway your body from side to side,
Feeling the crystal water cascade down the front of your body.
Left and right.
Left and right.
Left and right.
As you keep swaying,
Notice the way that the beautiful,
Pure water flows down your chest and stomach,
Over your hips and legs,
And notice where the water connects with your feet,
Your toes,
And that it is leaving your body in this moment,
Taking with it all of the energy that no longer serves your highest good.
Hear the water connecting with the ground,
And listen to it as it washes away,
Down the drain,
Leaving your body in this moment,
Taking with it the energy that no longer serves your highest good.
Turn around now and face the glorious water,
Allowing its pure stream to land on your heart chakra.
Begin to gently sway your body from side to side now,
Allowing the water to connect with your left shoulder,
And then your right shoulder,
Left shoulder,
And right shoulder.
Left and right.
As you keep swaying,
Notice the way that the beautiful warm water flows down your arms,
Down your torso,
Down your legs,
And feel the water swirling around your feet and toes,
Leaving your body in this moment,
Taking with it all of the energy that no longer serves your highest good.
In a moment,
You will immerse your face into the glorious warm stream of water.
If you are not comfortable doing so,
You can simply move your face as close to the water as you wish,
Noticing the spray of water on your cheeks and your lips.
Inhale now and lean into the stream of cleansing water,
Allowing it to cover your face.
Exhale slowly through your mouth and feel how the water plays over your cheeks,
Your lips,
And down your chin and neck.
And lean back.
Again,
Inhale and lean into the stream of beautiful warm water.
Exhale slowly,
Noticing how the water responds to your breath.
And lean back.
Inhale and lean into the stream of crystal water,
Allowing it to cover your face.
Exhale now,
Paying attention to how the water changes with your out-breath.
And lean back.
Allow the water to connect now with wherever it has felt the most magical on your body.
Place your open hands,
One on top of the other,
Over your heart chakra.
Sway very subtly from side to side now.
Inhale deeply.
Make your exhale a big sigh and let it go.
Inhale deeply.
Exhale a big,
Purposeful sigh and let it all go now.
Inhale deeply.
And exhale a giant heartfelt thank you.
When you are ready to,
Open your eyes.
Enjoy the rest of your stay here.
Namaste.
