Begin this practice either sitting or lying down,
In a place where you are free from distractions.
Close your eyes.
Take a deep breath in and release it slowly.
Allow your neck and shoulders to soften,
While putting distance between yourself and all worries,
Anything that does not serve you or seeks to bring you down.
Take a few moments to allow those things to disappear.
Concentrate on your breath.
With each inhale,
Feel yourself connecting with the elements of earth,
Air,
Fire,
Water,
And spirit.
With each exhale,
Let go of what no longer serves you.
Feel yourself rooting into the earth and drawing energy in from the core of the earth.
The energy flows up through the mantle of the earth and into your feet,
Traveling up as a tendril of bright light until it reaches your crown chakra.
Take another deep breath and release it slowly.
See sense and feel the energy that is now surrounding and filling you,
Glowing brilliantly and powerfully.
This energy is filled with nothing but love and light.
You feel protected and safe as you continue concentrating on your breath.
Sense yourself anchoring into the earth,
Feeling the earth's support.
You are welcome here.
You are safe here.
You are wanted here.
Blessed be the element of air,
Provider of the breath of life.
Blessed be the element of fire,
Eternal source of inspiration and might.
Blessed be the element of water,
The constant flow of energy.
Blessed be the element of earth,
Strong support for all forms of life.
Blessed be the element of spirit,
Our connection to the universe and all living things.
Spirit before me.
Spirit behind me.
Spirit to the right of me.
Spirit to the left of me.
Spirit above me and spirit below me.
Bless my intentions and keep me safe.
Let us now send love,
Light and healing energy to all in need as well as to ourselves.
Healing blessings for all in need.
Healing for the land upon which we live.
Healing for any areas of land or bodies of water in need of care.
Healing for all wildlife affected by human indifference.
Healing for our country,
Our state and our city.
Healing for those experiencing sorrow or loneliness.
Healing for wherever compassion is absent or lacking.
Healing for all of us joined together in this circle.
Healing for those you silently call to mind at this moment.
Be well,
So mote it be.
Spend a few more moments enjoying stability,
Absorbing the energy of the earth,
Relaxing.
When you are ready,
Allow any unused energy you have gathered to return to the earth knowing that it will be there for you whenever you need it again.
At your own pace,
Begin bringing subtle movements into your fingers and toes and eventually into the rest of your body.
Take your time.
When you are ready,
Open your eyes and take another deep breath.
The crow flies from me to thee,
To send the message,
Blessed be.
