Do not drive or operate machinery as you listen to this meditation.
Sit or lie down where you will not be disturbed.
Take this time for yourself to be kind to yourself.
There's nowhere else you have to be right now.
There's nothing else you have to do except take this time for you.
Take a slow,
Deep belly breath in.
Gently hold.
And exhale slowly.
Take another slow,
Deep belly breath in.
Gently hold.
And exhale slowly.
Take another slow,
Deep belly breath in.
Gently hold.
And exhale slowly.
If you are able,
In whatever is comfortable for you,
Place your dominant hand on the area above your belly button,
Either directly onto your skin or on top of your clothing.
Place your receptive hand palm up,
Either in your lap or at your side.
All you need to do is to be open to receive.
All you need to do is say yes to what is coming back to you.
As feelings come up within you,
You may return to deep belly breaths as you feel called to do to help move stagnant energy.
Imagine roots emerging from the base of your spine and all the points of your body in contact with the earth.
Your roots sink into the floor,
Into the ground beneath you,
Into the earth,
Around pebbles and underground rivers,
Deep into the earth,
Deep into the dark,
Warm,
Rich earth.
The scent of fresh soil reminds you of tilling a garden on a beautiful sunny day.
May you connect with the spirit of the earth to ground you,
To protect you as you do this meditation.
Open up the top of your head to the heavens and let the light of the universe flow in like a gentle stream past your eyes,
Past your throat,
To pause for a moment at your heart.
This stream flows to your solar plexus,
Through your sacral,
Into your root.
Earth's energy rises through your roots,
Connects with the energy,
Through the sacral,
Through the solar plexus to meet at your heart and meld there.
You are a living,
Breathing magnet.
Iron flows through your blood inside your veins.
This magnetic energy circulates throughout your body.
You nourish your heart.
Your heart does the work.
And as easily as your heart pumps your blood around your body,
Call back your energy lost through regret because you did not trust yourself.
Call back your energy lost through impatience.
Call back your energy lost through the struggle to remember and communicate your worth.
Call back your energy lost from when you felt shame or guilt when you had no energy left to give others.
Call back your energy lost because a mistake became a punishing blow to your confidence.
Call back your energy lost from when you felt you had to fulfill an obligation that did not speak to your Divine Self.
Call back your energy lost when you helped someone unwilling to help themselves.
Reclaim your energy lost from when you refused to forgive yourself.
Reclaim your energy lost from when you did not show up for yourself.
Reclaim your energy lost when you said no,
When you wanted to say yes.
Reclaim your energy lost when you said yes,
When you wanted to say no.
Reclaim your energy lost by not being fully present.
Restore your energy lost to distractions.
Restore your energy lost to obsessions that distract you.
Restore your energy expended on people and situations you can never control.
Restore your energy for every time it had to be perfect.
Restore your energy for when you needed to be right instead of moving toward happiness.
As these and other feelings,
Memories,
And thoughts come up for you,
Take deep,
Slow,
Loving belly breaths to move the energy through you.
Give this lower vibrating energy to the Earth.
Allow the Earth to transform this energy from experiences into wisdom.
Allow the Earth to transform a lifetime of lessons into light for your journey.
May all this or something greater manifest itself for you in totally harmonious ways for the highest good and the highest good of all concerned.
May all this or something greater manifest itself for you in totally harmonious ways for the highest good and the highest good of all concerned.
May all this or something greater manifest itself for you in totally harmonious ways for the highest good and the highest good of all concerned.
So be it,
So it is.
And when you're ready,
Pull your roots from the center of the Earth,
From the warmth,
From the underground rivers,
From pebbles,
Through the ground underneath you,
Through the floor,
And all the places where your body makes contact with the Earth.
And may the light of your crown close,
But always know you are guided and protected.
Always know you are doing the best you can.
Thank the universe,
Thank the heavens,
And thank the Earth for this time of reflection and renewal.
Namaste.
