Welcome to your practice.
In this meditation,
We will bring our awareness to the solar plexus chakra,
Harnessing our personal power and tuning into the truth of where our power is birthed from.
Begin by closing your eyes.
Draw a deep breath in through your nose,
Filling your body up to the brim,
Feeling as your belly expands and let it all out of your mouth.
Ah,
Feel the release as you exhale.
Feel the letting go as you exhale.
Feel yourself unleashing from the worry,
The stress,
The control that so stealthily takes residence within us.
Ah,
Allow yourself to arrive in this moment,
Right where you are,
Right as you are.
In this moment,
Allow your body to be supported by the ground beneath you,
Giving yourself permission to let go of the gripping and the tension,
Feeling as every ounce of you is completely supported by the ground beneath you.
Inhaling to feel your body expand,
Your heart rhythmically beating to the pulse of the universe,
The energy in motion throughout your body.
Exhaling to release deeper,
To drop in further,
As if you can feel from the inside,
A weight,
A presence filling the cavity that is your body.
That is the sensation of you arriving in this moment.
That is the sensation of you tuning into the here,
Into the now.
Allow this breath to consume you,
The sensations of air moving into yourselves,
Feeding your body.
And notice where the edges of your breath live.
Where does your breath feel nourishing in your body?
Where does your breath feel sharp,
Contained?
And begin to explore the facets of this breath and allow yourself to intertwine with the breath.
Right now,
There's nowhere else to be,
Nothing else to do,
Except to be fully here,
Right now in your body.
Releasing any tension where you're still holding it,
Relax the jaw,
Unfurrow the brow,
Relax any of the tiny muscles in your face that are still gripping.
And with every exhale,
Let go further,
Release deeper.
With every exhale,
Give yourself permission to receive support.
Give yourself permission to be held by something bigger than you in this moment.
On your next inhale,
Feel your breath move into the space that is slightly above your belly button.
This is your solar plexus chakra.
Begin to visualize a bright,
Radiating,
Yellow light in this space.
With every inhale,
Feeling as this light grows,
First in size,
Then in strength.
Feel as this light radiates in all directions,
As this orb,
At its origin,
Resides in you.
With every inhale,
Feel as this light grows more powerful,
More true.
And with every exhale,
Watch as this light spreads farther in all directions,
Beyond where you can see,
Into infinity.
This is where personal power is born.
As you hold your attention at this energy center,
Allow for the truth of the following message to seep into your being.
My personal power is in my choosing.
My personal power is in every moment I choose kindness,
Even though every cell of my being feels the resistance,
The pull to succumb to the familiar,
The familiarity of separateness,
The familiarity of bypassing connection.
My personal power is in my choosing.
Every moment I choose forgiveness,
Even though every cell of my being feels the resistance,
The pull to succumb to the familiar,
The compulsion to impart the same amount of pain on those that have deeply hurt me.
My personal power is in my choosing.
Every moment I choose to love myself,
Even though every cell of my being feels the resistance.
Choosing to love my whole self,
The self that was excluded,
The self that was told I am not enough,
The self that forgot what it feels like to exist from the purity.
The purity that is my essence,
The purity that radiates from within me.
Feel this light building now,
Emanating from the core of your being in all directions,
Bright,
Blinding.
Notice as everything else begins to fall away.
There is you,
This moment,
The light radiating out of you into the universe all around you.
Allow this field emanating from your solar plexus to completely surround you,
To wrap around you and intertwine with the energy that surrounds you.
My personal power is in my choosing.
Every moment I choose courage,
Even though every cell of my being feels the resistance,
The pull to succumb to the familiar.
My personal power is in my choosing courage to challenge complacency,
My courage to believe my purpose,
To harness my power,
To share my light,
To inspire,
To serve,
To love.
My personal power is in the courage to choose me,
To choose what makes me happy,
What brings me joy,
What most aligns with who I am.
My personal power is in the safety of my own nurturing hands cradling my light,
In the knowing I will hold myself no matter what follows.
My personal power is in me.
In this space,
Allow yourself to unfold into all that is available for you right now,
Noticing,
Observing as this yellow light pulses through your body,
Emanating from the core of your being into the world,
Abolishing all separation between you and the universe.
Gently coming back now,
Bringing your attention back into the body,
Back into the space,
Bringing hands to heart center,
Gently rubbing palms together,
And placing one palm over each eye,
Gently tuck the chin,
And when you're ready,
Flutter the eyes open.
Have a beautiful day.
