Welcome to Empowered Rest,
Healing the solar plexus chakra meditation for inner confidence and sleep.
When our solar plexus chakra or Manipura is blocked,
It can create a profound impact on our sense of ourself,
Our power and control over our lives.
This chakra,
Located in your upper abdomen,
Governs your confidence,
Your motivation and self-worth,
Forming the core of your personal identity and drive.
When energy here is stagnant or obstructed,
It can lead to feelings of insecurity,
Self-doubt or a tendency to overthink,
Often manifesting as constant worry,
Fear of failure or even perfectionism.
These blockages can make it challenging to relax deeply,
Leaving you feeling anxious,
Restless or unfulfilled even in moments meant for rest.
So,
In this meditation,
We will work to identify and release the specific blockages within this chakra.
Some common energetic blockages include feelings of fear of judgement,
Difficulty making decisions,
Unworthiness,
Overthinking.
These feelings may emerge as a persistent inner critic or self-sabotage,
Where fear overrides your natural confidence,
Holding you back from expressing your true potential.
And such blockages affect our sleep,
Causing your mind to linger on regrets,
Worries about the future or an underlying sense of tension that keeps you from fully relaxing into rest.
Throughout this practice,
We will gently dissolve these blockages through the guided breathing,
Visualization and energy work and by bringing warmth and golden light here into the solar plexus,
We will clear away doubts and fears,
Replacing them with a deep sense of self-assurance,
Inner peace and freedom from the need for external validation.
This process will allow you to release worry and embrace a state of calm,
Creating the ideal environment for a restorative healing sleep.
As you transition into sleep,
45 minutes of healing music will continue to work with your subconscious mind,
Encouraging lasting transformation,
Restoring your inner power and aligning your solar plexus with your true essence so you can wake up renewed and ready to step confidently into your life.
So let's begin.
Take a deep breath in and slowly exhale.
Now settle into your comfortable lying down position,
Ready for sleep.
Close your eyes,
Let your body just sink into a place of deep relaxation,
Let go of the day and anything you've been holding on to.
Just be present here.
Now if it feels right to you,
Gently place your hands on your upper abdomen,
Just below your ribcage.
This is the area of your solar plexus chakra.
Take a deep breath in,
Expanding your belly as you do and exhale slowly,
Releasing any tension.
Allow each breath to soften you,
To relax you,
To bring you further inward.
Now visualise a warm golden light beginning to glow under your hands,
At the centre of your body.
This is your inner power,
Your source of confidence,
Self-worth and purpose.
As you breathe in,
Imagine this golden light growing brighter,
Filling this area with a warm,
Comforting glow.
And as you breathe out,
Feel it expanding,
Melting away any blockages and feelings of doubt or worry.
Breathe in this light and exhale any heaviness away.
With each breath,
Feel this golden light becoming stronger and clearer,
Gently dissolving any stagnant energy,
Any obstacles holding you back from your true self.
Each breath brings more power,
More warmth,
More clarity.
And each breath out releases anything that no longer is good for you.
Allow yourself to feel lighter,
More at ease.
Now bring your awareness to the steady rhythm of your breath,
Breathing in and just breathing out.
See your solar plexus chakra as a radiant golden sphere,
Spinning slowly and steadily,
Glowing with pure,
Empowering energy.
Let it spin freely,
Releasing any last traces of self-doubt or fear.
As you continue to breathe,
Allow this energy to expand throughout your body,
From your core to your arms and to your legs,
To the tips of your fingers and your toes.
Feel yourself wrapped in this warm,
Soothing light.
You are secure.
You are confident.
You are enough.
When you're ready,
Allow your breath to become soft and effortless.
Just a gentle,
Natural rhythm.
With every breath,
This healing energy will continue to flow,
Supporting your body,
Supporting your mind.
As you drift deeper into relaxation,
Healing music will play.
For the next moments together,
Entering your subconscious and nurturing your solar plexus chakra as you rest.
This gentle music will work to balance your energy,
Allowing you to awaken with a renewed sense of purpose,
Clarity,
Peace.
For now,
There is nothing left to do but relax and allow this healing energy to carry you into deep relaxation.
A deep,
Restful sleep.
