Namaste and welcome to a chakra clearing from Harmony Yoga.
Typically we work on Chinese medicine but today we're going to work with Ayurvedic medicine and the elements of earth,
Water,
Fire,
Air and space.
Earth is the first chakra,
Water second chakra,
Fire third chakra,
Air fourth chakra and space is chakras five,
Six and seven.
So invite yourself to find a comfortable seat or lay down,
Comfort is queen and just notice where you've landed.
We first arrive wherever it is that we've come to ground and then we land.
And as you land just notice what's touching down in that earth energy.
Every chakra has a color and a bija sound and we will practice both.
So begin by just noticing your body breathing you,
Knowing that every time the energy comes in you're being filled up by the universe,
By all the chakras,
Chakras,
Chakras,
Doesn't matter and every time you exhale a part of you goes back out.
In both Chinese medicine and yoga agree we focus your attention,
That's where your energy flows.
So focus your attention on your breath just noticing energy coming in and energy going out.
And now in your mind's eye visualize from your tip of your tailbone down through your legs the root chakra,
First chakra,
Earth chakra,
Color red and the sound is lam,
L-A-M.
And take a big breath in and focus your attention on the tailbone and exhale down through the legs and as you do that inhale see the color red right at the tip of the tailbone cascading down your legs.
If you'd like join me in the bija mantra or just simply listen,
Inhaling focusing the attention on the tip of the tailbone red and exhale lam.
Let's do it two more times visualizing earth energy grounded,
Rooted,
Safe,
Connected.
Big breath in tip of tailbone,
Red,
Lam.
And last one,
Big breath in fill the tip of the tailbone grounded energy,
Lam.
Notice your connection to the earth,
The safety to the ground.
Notice as we practice where your chakras are open and where you need to practice more.
As you visualize right in the pelvis the color orange and the sound is vam,
V-A-M.
If you want to you can start to arch the back,
See that color orange right in the pelvis,
Big wheel of energy of light orange like a pumpkin.
Inhale and as you round the back,
Lam.
Arch in the back,
See that color orange bright in your pelvis,
Big breath,
Vam.
Good,
One more,
Big breath,
Color orange,
Vam.
Inviting yourself connect to the flow,
To being able to go with the flow,
To your creativity,
To your sensuality,
To that color orange sacral chakra.
And now in your mind's eye you'll see in your solar plexus,
Your belly area,
Bright yellow sun and I like to say ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
The sound is ram,
R-A-M.
So you can put your hands on your belly and fill your belly with a big yellow light of sun.
And draw the belly in and up,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram.
And again you feel the breath come in,
Big yellow light.
Your personal power,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram.
One more time,
All the fire in you.
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram,
Ram.
And simply notice that connection.
Beautiful.
Now you can put your hands on your heart,
Which is the center of the chakras,
Right?
One,
Two and three,
But four is the center.
And you could if you want visualize that color green and this is my favorite bija sound because it's yum.
Like the heart is yummy.
Breathe in right into your heart,
Big green light.
Yum.
If you want you could reach your hands back behind you,
Draw your shoulder blades together,
Big green light.
You are open,
Full of love,
Compassion,
Peace,
Joy.
And then round the back,
Hands touch.
We are on yum.
And then feel a smile on your face.
It's okay to make mistakes.
Breathe into your heart.
Your heart is in forgiveness.
Green light.
Yum.
And one more time,
Reach the hands back,
Smile on your face.
Green light of yes.
Yum.
And just pause and notice.
Notice all the good feelings in the heart.
Heart energy goes down the arms and out the fingers,
By the way.
And then rub your hands together and put them right on your throat if that's comfortable for you.
It's a blue light and the color is hum,
H-U-M.
So just breathe and feel that throat,
The blue light,
And then we're going to hum out the bija sound.
Breathe in,
Blue light in the throat.
Hum.
Visualize your ability to express yourself,
Speak your truth.
Blue light as you breathe into the throat.
Hum.
See it in your mind one more.
Hum.
Notice.
As we travel to the sixth chakra,
Third eye,
Drape your palms right on your forehead.
And visualize the color purple and the sound is om.
Breathe front,
Back,
And sides of the mind,
Purple light.
Om.
Again,
See that purple light in your mind filling up.
Om.
Last one right here,
Your intuition,
Your ability to hear your inner voice,
Purple light.
Om.
Nice.
And then just let your hands be palms up on your lap,
Open to receive the crown of the head.
The color is white.
And there's no sound.
Notice that opening to something greater than you,
To divine intervention.
And let yourself just be right here with your mind's attentions focused right on the crown of the head,
Color white.
Hum.
Feel that open space of the energy all around you.
And now we're going to breathe all seven chakras,
The colors,
Just to tune up from the tailbone to the crown.
So you inhale red,
Orange,
Yellow,
Green,
Blue,
Purple,
White.
When you exhale,
White,
Purple,
Blue,
Green,
Yellow,
Orange,
Red.
See it in your mind like the rainbow,
Roy G.
Biv.
Inhaling red,
Orange,
Yellow,
Green,
Blue,
Purple,
White.
Exhaling white,
Purple,
Blue,
Green,
Yellow,
Orange,
Red.
And you could keep doing this and pause this beautiful insight timer meditation.
Or you could end with us one more time,
Breathing in red,
Orange,
Yellow,
Green,
Blue,
Purple,
White.
Big breath,
Opening up your chakras,
Your energy centers that connect you to yourself and to the energy around you.
And exhaling white,
Purple,
Blue.
See it in your mind,
Green of the heart,
Yellow belly,
Orange pelvis,
Red earth.
Stay here for a moment and just visualize those colors up and down the central channel.
Harmonizing your balance within yourself,
Your energy within yourself.
And then begin to rub the hands together as we seal this healing practice.
Bring your hands down to the earth,
Around you and up to the sky,
Opening up all those chakras.
Draw that prayer right into your heart,
Hands in prayer.
Whatever it is you want to walk around as your intention for the day.
Breathe it into every cell,
I am.
Let that be your intention and let the universe work out the details.
Two more times,
I am.
And last one,
Breathe all those chakras open.
I am.
Thank you so much for your practice.
Namaste from Harmony Yoga.
Hear those birdies.
