Welcome to your yoga nidra practice.
To prepare,
Lie yourself down on the earth.
You can grab a blanket,
A bolster,
A pillow,
Something to lay over your body.
The invitation is to get as comfortable as possible lying down upon the earth for the energetic reset as we prepare for the big expansion.
Letting yourself get cozy and comfortable as you allow your body to become still,
Heels in,
Toes out,
Palms face up,
Down by your sides.
You'll begin to allow your awareness and attention to follow the sound of my voice.
Breathing in to your heart.
As you gaze through the third eye center,
The space between the eyebrows,
Eyes are closed,
Looking up and out.
Breathing in through the heart.
To set your sankalpa,
Your intention,
What is your heart's deepest desire?
Repeat it in your mind's eye three times in the present tense as if it's already manifested.
I am well known and recognized.
I am wealthy and abundant.
I am in love and completely fulfilled with my life.
You choose your I am statement.
Repeat it three times in the exact same way each time.
As we begin the yoga nidra practice,
Set the intention to stay still and awake.
As you allow your forehead,
Cheekbones and jaw to relax,
Let your head rest into the earth.
Left arm heavy and relaxed.
Right arm heavy and relaxed.
Your chest and belly relaxing as you allow the shoulders to hold your heart and soften into the ground,
Into the floor.
Your belly button drops into your back body.
Your left leg heavy and relaxed.
Right leg heavy and relaxed.
Feeling through the soles of your feet and the palms of your hands,
Bringing your awareness to the top of your body.
And then to the bottom back of your body.
Breathing in and out of your nose.
Breathe down into the base of the spine,
The center of your root chakra.
A spinning ball of red energy.
The element of earth.
The space that grounds you,
Roots you and stabilizes you.
Breathing through the root chakra.
As you bring your attention up just below the navel,
Behind the pubic bone,
In the center of the hips,
The spinning ball of orange energy.
The element of water.
The space of emotion,
Creativity and pleasure.
Your ability to feel the feels,
To create with your life force,
And to enjoy the richness of life.
The sacral chakra,
The energy center,
The color orange spinning ball of energy.
Moving up to right behind the belly button,
The solar plexus,
A spinning ball of yellow energy.
The element of fire.
Your confidence,
Personal power,
An unstoppable force.
Your ability to create.
Your ability to stand in your power,
Regardless of circumstance.
A spinning ball of yellow energy,
Right behind the belly button.
Moving up to the center of your chest,
Between your breasts,
The heart chakra,
A spinning ball of green energy.
The space of love,
Of compassion.
Your ability to love and feel so deeply.
A spinning ball of green energy.
The element of air,
To love unconditionally,
To care unconditionally.
Moving into your throat chakra,
A spinning ball of blue energy.
The space for clear communication,
Full expression and truth.
Your ability to speak your truth.
A spinning ball of blue energy at your throat.
The element of ether,
Space,
The center of your throat.
Up to your third eye,
The space between your eyebrows,
Third eye chakra.
A spinning ball of purple indigo.
This is the light,
The element light,
See through the light.
The spinning ball of purple indigo.
The space of intuition,
Inner wisdom,
Inner knowing.
The ability to see without seeing.
The ability to know just because you know.
The crown chakra just above your head,
White ball of energy,
Connecting you to universal realms,
Spirituality,
Wisdom,
Unity,
God source,
Consciousness.
The space that you came from,
The space you are most connected to at birth,
And just before you leave the world.
Something greater,
Something larger,
This opening at the crown,
White ball of energy above your head.
The ability to see the thought from above the thought.
Bird's eye view,
Looking in from the crown of the head,
Weaving down through the third eye center,
Down through your throat,
Your heart,
Your belly,
Your sacral and the base of your spine.
Feel the energy flowing from top to bottom.
From bottom to top with your breath,
Weaving from side to side.
As you gaze in now through the third eye,
See your vision already done.
See it in your mind so clearly that you begin to feel it in your body now.
As you repeat in your mind's eye,
In the exact same way you did in the beginning,
Your I am statement,
Your sankalpa.
Your practice is now complete.
As you bring your awareness lying on the ground,
Become aware and attentive to any chakra center that you felt was blocked.
Take time to reflect,
To journal,
Where is the disconnect in my ability to feel unconditional love?
Where is the disconnect in my ability to really know that I have the power to create and to feel anything that I desire?
Where am I not right now speaking my unapologetic truth?
Let the deepening happen in the reflection as you bring your awareness to each one of these chakra centers and you will begin to see where you are blocked,
In which area.
Then bring your attention and your work to that space to begin to open this so energy flows.
The more energy that flows through each one of these chakra centers,
The more you have the ability to co-create in your life whatever it is that you desire.
Your external world is just a mere reflection of your inner world.
The more that you can look and see within,
The more clearer it will be for you to know who you get to be and what you get to do.
Do this practice often.
Come back to it minimum once a week.
If you can,
Several times a week.
And if you do it daily,
Begin to look at yourself from above,
Connected to peer source,
God creation,
Consciousness,
To co-create in your life more abundance,
More joy,
More fulfillment.
And I'll see you for our next practice.
