Reiki Chakra & Aura Meditation

Hello,

Welcome to today's session.

This session will focus on Reiki grounding energy.

As we bring in Reiki using the Reiki symbols,

I will then guide you through a grounding meditation through your chakras.

And then we will send this Reiki energy out to our auras.

So I hope wherever you are right now,

However you're listening to this,

That you found a place that's comfortable for you.

And in this place,

Whether you're seated or lying down,

Just notice the breath.

Take some deep inhales and exhales.

Really focus on the breath without trying to control it,

But just noticing.

And when you're ready,

If you're familiar with Reiki and would like to do the Reiki symbols with me,

Feel free to do so.

The first symbol that gets used is the Choku Rei symbol.

This symbol is the Reiki power symbol,

And it also means we're placing all of the energy of the universe here.

The second symbol that we use is the Sei Hei Ki symbol.

This symbol is for emotional and mental healing.

It also means that God and man become one.

The next two symbols are in the Japanese Kanji,

So they are in the Japanese alphabet.

The first one of these is called the Honsha Sei Sheng En.

This symbol is the Reiki distance healing symbol.

This allows us to send Reiki healing energy across great distances.

It also means having no present,

Past,

Or future.

And so if we think of Reiki or energy and time as not being linear,

But that all points of space and time are connected,

This becomes easier to send that Reiki energy out.

The last symbol is the Daikonmyo.

This symbol also means great enlightenment.

It's the Reiki master symbol.

And for me,

It's always kind of felt like we are sealing everything in when we use this symbol.

So now that we've brought in Reiki,

Using those symbols,

Finding space within ourselves,

Whether we are seated or lying down,

We can start to imagine our energetic roots growing from our feet.

As you can also imagine an energetic cord growing from your root chakra,

But I'm a little more nature minded and I tend to focus a little bit more on growing my energetic roots.

As you grow these roots down into the ground,

Start to feel rooted from your feet and your legs into the ground that you stand upon.

Start to send these roots down towards the center of the earth.

Imagine them growing down through all the different layers of the earth,

Wherever you're at.

At this time,

You may also want to offer a land acknowledgement,

Recognizing what land you're on,

Who walked on it before you did.

Recognizing the history there as we grow our energetic roots down into the ground.

Again,

Acknowledging everything to do with the lands,

Our ancestors,

Other people's ancestors who walked this land before us.

When you're ready and you've imagined a nice big ball of energy at the center of the earth,

You're growing these roots down towards,

Start to connect to that energetic ball of light,

Warmth,

Energy,

Feelings of love and groundedness.

Connect your roots that you've just grown to that ball of energy.

This is a Reiki grounding energy.

This energy will help you feel relaxed,

Safe,

Loved.

You can start to bring that energy back up through your energetic roots.

Taking your time.

It may look like droplets along the spider web.

It may look like energy and light just illuminating your roots on the way up.

However you've imagined this,

Just start to bring that energy on up.

This is an inexhaustible source of energy.

It's always here for you.

You can always ground to it.

Bring that up through your roots,

Your toes and your feet,

Your ankles,

Your shins,

Your calf muscles,

Your knees,

Your thighs,

The backs of the thighs.

Bring that energy down through your feet,

All the way up to the base of the spine,

To your root chakra.

Your root chakra tends to be depicted as a red color.

And so for you,

If you want to,

You can imagine a lovely red color here.

It would be helpful at times to picture lotus flowers at each of your chakras.

So however you imagine this today,

See if you can allow that chakra to shine.

A nice red color.

It can be a darker red or a lighter red.

Other chakras tend to change with the seasons,

Where I'm living,

Things that are around me.

So again,

It could be a darker red like a ruby or crimson.

It can be a lighter red,

A rose red,

Cardinal red.

Whatever red color comes to mind for you,

Allow it to shine.

As we shine this light forward,

Right,

We have a tendency to do that.

See if you can send it back,

And then you can send it side to side and up and down along the central channel of the body.

Allow this light,

This energy,

This warmth,

This feeling of groundedness to shine in all directions from the base of your spine.

Our root chakra again is associated with groundedness,

Feelings of security and safety in our lives.

And when you're ready,

Maybe on your next inhale,

You can go ahead and bring that energy up just a little bit to your sacral chakra.

This is in our sacrum,

The juncture of the thighs,

The hips,

Located where our genitals are.

The sacral chakra tends to be depicted as an orange color.

And for you,

This orange color could be a coral color,

Carrot,

Pumpkin or apricot,

Tangerine.

Whatever orange color here comes to mind for you,

See if you can allow it to shine.

So you can shine that light forward and back,

Side to side,

Up and down along the central channel of the body.

Sacral chakra tends to be associated with,

Yes,

Our sexuality and sensuality,

But also with our creativity.

See if you can shine and radiate that light forms an energy in all directions.

And when you're ready,

Bring that energy up just a little bit to our solar plexus chakra.

This chakra tends to be depicted as a yellow color.

It's going to be located right above the belly button,

Right above the navel.

You can place both hands here if you would like.

We do use a lot of hand gestures in reiki.

So placing both hands here can help with anxiety,

Tension,

Help you feel a little more resolved.

Okay,

Our solar plexus chakra tends to be depicted as a yellow color.

This yellow color could be the color of a sunshine on a bright sunny day,

It could be lemon or saffron,

Gold.

Whatever yellow color comes to mind for you here,

Allow that light to shine.

And shine that light forward and back,

Side to side,

Up and down along the central channel of the body.

Take a few moments here.

The chakra is associated with strength and self-confidence.

So if you're not feeling particularly strong today or self-confident,

Again,

You can keep both hands here if you would like.

You can bring one hand to your heart and keep one hand on your belly.

This posture is said to help with anxiety,

Can help with calming the self and the body.

So as we take our next inhale and we move that hand perhaps today,

We're coming up to our heart chakra.

Our heart chakra tends to be depicted as a green color.

This green color could be pine or sage,

Lime,

It could be malachite or jade.

Whatever green color here comes to mind for you,

Allow that light to shine.

Our heart chakra is in charge of love and compassion within ourselves.

When we bring that energy up from our solar plexus chakra,

We want to remind ourselves that we want to be strong but with love.

Otherwise,

We might become brittle people.

So just remind yourself that you can have strength and self-confidence with self-love and compassion for others and empathy.

If you need to,

You can place both hands on the heart chakra.

You can keep them here for the rest of the practice if you need to.

This will help again with self-compassion if you need a little bit more of that in your practice today.

You can also keep one hand on the belly,

One hand on the heart,

Whatever you need today,

Okay?

Your next inhale,

Bring that energy up again one more time to our throat chakra.

In reiki,

This tends to be depicted as a light blue color.

However,

In some of the other yogic and vedic traditions,

This can be a different color blue,

Like turquoise or navy,

Cobalt or sapphire,

Blue of a clear day after the rain falls in the sky,

Many different shades of the sky.

So whatever blue color here comes to mind,

You allow that light to shine.

See if you can shine that light forward and back,

Side to side along the central channel of the body.

Our throat chakra is in charge of communication.

This includes non-verbal communication.

We want to remind ourselves that we also want to communicate with love and compassion in our lives.

When you're ready,

Bring that energy up one more time into our third eye chakra.

Again,

In reiki,

This gets depicted as a purple color.

I like to imagine a nice light amethyst color here.

For you,

It could be lilac or plum,

Orchid,

Violet.

Whatever shade of purple here comes to mind for you,

Allow it to shine.

I know in some of the other vedic and yogic traditions,

This can be also depicted as a white color.

If that's more comfortable for you,

You can allow that white color here to shine.

See if you can shine that energy forward and back,

Side to side,

Up and down along the central channel of the body.

Our third eye chakra is in charge of our intuition,

Our foresight.

And when you're ready,

Our last chakra is on the main chakra system through the central body is our crown chakra.

This crown chakra in reiki gets depicted as a white color.

And this is because the energy of reiki will come in through that crown chakra.

And so for me,

I like to imagine maybe a thousand-petaled lotus sitting at the top of my head.

Each petal of that lotus is an energy point that connects to some other energy point out in the universe.

And in the middle of that crown chakra is where that universal energy connection point happens.

So in the middle of the lotus,

That's where that white light energy will start to come in through your crown.

And once you feel comfortable with that,

Take a few deep breaths.

Allow that white light energy to shine the crown of your head.

Allow that reiki energy to start coming in through the crown of your head.

As that's universal energy,

I want you to think about how you feel as you're grounded.

We just grounded ourselves with that grounding energy from the center of the earth.

Maybe we imagine that energy coming up one side of our chakras and coming down the other side is the universal energy.

So as we are connected to the earth,

We are also connected to the sky and the universe.

And so you have both of these energies circulating through your chakras,

Up one side and down the other.

And sit here with this connection for a moment or two.

Just breathe with this connection,

This universal energy moving through the chakras.

You are connected to the earth as you are connected to the universe.

And all points of space and time are connected.

And that includes you.

So just breathe here for a few more moments.

Maybe take a big inhale,

Sigh it all out.

And when you're ready,

It might be comfortable for you,

We're going to send this energy out to our auras.

And so for the purposes of this meditation,

You can think of the aura as having maybe seven layers.

You know,

Also maybe just imagine a big bubble around you.

Whatever brings you comfort,

Whatever,

However you imagine your aura,

You can start to picture that here.

But for the purposes of this meditation,

We're going to send it out to seven layers of our aura.

And so the first layer of our aura is the one closest to the physical body.

It's along the skin,

It's associated with our root chakra,

Deals with our physical health.

You can send this energy,

You can start to divert the reiki energy coming in through your crown chakra out towards your skin.

It's all along the body.

You may even do the hand gestures where you start to brush your head,

Your shoulders,

Your arms,

The front of your body,

From that energy back down your back,

Through your legs,

Your shins,

Your feet,

The bottoms of the feet.

All right.

Take a few moments with that.

Just diverting that reiki energy from coming in through the crown,

Sending it out to that physical body layer,

That first layer of our auras.

And when you're ready,

Start to send that energy out to our second layer.

This will be our emotional aura.

It's associated with our sacral chakra.

It deals with our emotions,

Right?

It's our emotional layer.

This emotional aura,

It's our second layer.

So you can imagine it maybe an inch or two off the skin,

Surrounding your body.

And another layer of reiki energy,

White light energy here.

You can also imagine feelings of warmth and comfort and love.

Clearing the emotional body here.

And when you're ready,

We can send that out to our third aura.

This is our mental body aura.

This is associated with our conscious mind.

It deals with logic,

Thoughts,

Reason.

You can think of it as being one more layer away from the skin,

The body.

And so maybe we're going a few more inches away from the body here,

Just again deliberately sending out reiki light energy,

Warmth,

Feelings of love and connectedness and compassion from that crown chakra.

Wrapping the body and the third layer of reiki energy.

And when you're ready,

Let's go ahead and send that out to our fourth layer.

This is our astral plane.

It's our aura connection.

This is our only astral body.

And so sometimes our astral body is associated with other things.

We can also just imagine this is the fourth layer.

It surrounds us at the moment.

So however you imagine that,

It allows that reiki light,

Warmth and love to go out to your astral aura.

And when you're ready,

You can send that out to our fifth layer.

This is called the etheric plane.

Our etheric aura deals with our spiritual health.

It's hard for you to imagine a different body from the one that you currently inhabit.

You can send this energy out to that fifth layer.

Wrap yourself in a fifth layer of light,

Warmth and energy and love.

Healing energy,

Grounding energy,

Whatever you need at this moment.

And when you're ready,

We'll send it out one more time to our celestial aura.

This deals with our dreams and intuition,

The plane of enlightenment.

It's associated with our third eye chakra.

So again,

You can imagine this as a sixth layer surrounding you with energy of light,

Warmth,

Love,

Diverting it from our crown chakra outward.

Our last aura is our kathariyic body.

It's also on the causal aura plane.

This body,

This aura,

Harmonizes our other auras.

So maybe you imagine those little vibrations coming out from that layer harmonizing the other layers.

They all work in conjunction with each other.

Send this out,

Reiki energy out to surround you in the seventh layer of light,

Warmth,

Universal healing energy.

Sit with this for a moment.

You've wrapped yourself in seven layers of Reiki energy.

You're in a little Reiki bubble.

See how you feel.

Does it feel good?

Do you feel more relaxed?

That is my hope for you.

You can also use this to help shield and give yourself boundaries.

You can brush your aura.

You can imagine sending that energy out with your hands to the bubble of Reiki that you're in.

If you imagine boundaries surrounding you,

Make them a little permeable.

Allow,

You know,

Things like love and light and warmth to still illuminate your life.

Let those things come through.

When you're ready,

You can start to come back into yourself.

You can wiggle your fingers,

Wiggle your toes,

Start to move about a bit.

This Reiki energy is always here for you.

It's a universal energy.

We can always connect to it.

And just as a reminder,

We just act as channels for it.

Right?

This energy is always around us,

Surrounds us,

And we're able to connect to it in certain ways.

It allows us to connect with other people through compassion and love,

Feelings of care,

Warmth.

I hope you enjoyed this session.

Thank you so much for joining me today,

This journey through our chakras and our auras.

I wish you the best.

Have a great day.

Namaste.
