Connect to the energy within.
Begin by finding a comfortable seat and taking a deep breath in and out.
As we breathe we'll send the breath to different areas of our body,
Beginning with the crown of our head all the way down to the base of our spine.
In our breath we hold energy and sending it throughout brings energy to every part of the body.
Breathing in again we send a calm relaxed energy to our body allowing it to rest.
Now that we are relaxed we begin to focus on our crown chakra more deeply.
What energy is here?
Visualize a field of lavender,
Tall slim stalks and long deep purple flowers reaching for the sky.
Here we begin to feel into our crown chakra as it extends from our body to connect us to spirit,
A calm confident peaceful energy filling our space beginning from the top of our head and traveling beyond us and into us.
Here we understand our connection to source and embody our crown chakra through the empowering flower of lavender.
Next we bring our attention to our third eye,
An area in the center of our forehead where we begin to see and embody the energy of mint.
Breathing in we inhale the scent of mint,
Refreshing,
Clear,
Insightful and breathing out we release any and all stagnant energy we may hold within our body.
We see the fog lift and our life comes into focus laid out before us at a depth we've never known.
Before us our path begins to form.
We see our relationships as they are,
Not what we wish them to be but simply as they are.
We see our self in its complete wholeness.
We see truth and in truth we will find wisdom.
In our in our mind's eye we gather the green and deep purple leaves of mint and embody natural inner guidance.
Pay attention to the thoughts that first enter the mind.
They are the ones that our spirit wants us to know.
Listen.
Now walk forward into the future with strength,
Protection and healing.
Moving to the next energy center of our body,
Our throat chakra,
We can taste the sweet nectar of red clover coating our throats.
It's healing properties,
Soothing any inflammation,
Opening our vocal cords,
Allowing our inner truth and hidden emotions and thoughts to come forward to the surface.
Let them out.
See yourself laying in a field of soft clover looking up at a bright blue sky.
Here we feel safe,
Warm,
Nurtured and we learn to speak again.
Red clover helps us find the words to tell our story and to express them to others so that they may understand us.
Embody red clover so that we may communicate in a soft and gentle manner.
Feeling warm and safe,
We move our focus to the center of our chest,
Our heart chakra.
Here,
Buried beneath the green thorns of our past,
Grows the most symbolic flower in the world,
The captivating love of our lives,
The precious key to our soul,
The purest of self.
Here does lie the wild rose.
Here at our core,
We learn to embody all the gifts this flower has to offer.
We allow love,
Forgiveness,
Acceptance,
Joy to exist freely and uninhibited by the restraints of the world.
Here we hold hope.
We learn to exist simply to cover the earth with the sweetly scented soft pink blooms of our hearts.
Further down below our diaphragm is our solar plexus.
The solar plexus shines a bright and hopeful yellow and embodies the sacred plant of rosemary.
Rosemary's strong aromatic scent stimulates our memory and its soothing ability helps to heal our gut so that we remember who we are instinctively.
Our lower belly is the source of our personal power,
Our self-esteem,
And our confidence,
Our gut instinct,
Our natural essence,
Our ability to act,
And the willpower to do what we know we must to bring our solar plexus into alignment.
We need to learn self-control by letting go to move beyond any feelings of unworthiness and to be open only to the possibility of our own growth.
As we continue to journey on,
We come to the sacral chakra just below the navel.
In this energy center,
We feel,
Create,
Manifest,
And enjoy our world.
Here we embody the sensual orange blossom of calendula.
Its delicate petals hold an abundance of healing properties and spend the days soaking up every bit of warm sunlight that it can.
Imagine lying in the heat of the sun and we can feel that heat on our skin.
As we relax,
We begin daydreaming of the life we wish to create and then we send our desires out into the world.
Having faith in the universe,
We then continue on lower and lower to the root chakra,
The final chakra located at the base of the spine.
Breathing in,
We inhale the earthy scent of sage,
And exhaling,
We embody sage's cleansing power to clear our body of toxins and any remaining stagnant energy that we have.
Let it go.
Here we are completely connected to the deep red earth,
Stable,
Grounded,
Living in the present moment.
We are secure in our existence,
In our energy,
In who we are,
In our connection to nature.
Here we simply are.
Here we simply exist.
We are always connected through our body and its energy centers to the world around us,
To nature.
We are working in balance,
A part of something bigger than ourselves.
Breathing deeply,
We work our way from the root chakra of sage,
I am,
Up to the sacral chakra,
I feel calendula,
To the solar plexus,
Rosemary,
I do,
To the heart chakra,
Wild rose,
I love,
At the throat,
Red clover,
I speak,
And onwards to the third eye,
I see mint,
And finally,
The crown,
I understand,
Lavender.
Wishing you an energized and balanced day.
Carry the love and blessings that nature gives us,
That we give ourselves.
Connect with the energy within.
Until we meet again,
Namaste.
