Reclaim Your Energy and Power Meditation

Welcome,

Welcome home to yourself.

Today's meditation is about reclaiming our own energy and giving back that which no longer is needed to be burdened on us.

Today's meditation is about bringing back in our own energy and cleansing ourselves of the energy we carry that is not ours.

So to begin this practice,

Come to a seated place right in front of your beautiful altar that you've created and allow yourself just to shake,

Shake your arms and your head and your legs and your body and maybe shake your arms up and out wide.

Do a little bit of movement just to clear some energy first,

Stretch side to side,

Maybe do a little twist in each direction and a fold.

Feel yourself just releasing whatever it is that you've been holding on to from the day,

From the night,

Whenever you're doing this,

Just shake it out a little bit and get super comfy.

When you're ready to get comfy,

Find yourself sitting on a cushion if that feels good,

Elevating the hips just helps the spine to stay a little taller more easily.

And then let the breath flow.

Take a beautiful breath in,

Let your breath come out.

Invite your eyes to be open or closed,

Whatever you feel more comfortable with.

And we will be embodying this divine feminine kind of meditation where we welcome everything,

We just observe,

We watch everything come and go without judgment,

Without criticism.

And we really just embrace it all while attaching to none of it.

We let it flow in,

We let it flow out.

So let's start our meditation as we continue to breathe deeply with awareness above our heads,

Out,

Way up into the heavens.

And imagine an amazing,

Beautiful,

Shimmering golden cord coming down from the universe,

Down from the stars,

Down specifically for your crown of your head.

This is meant just for you.

And let this golden cord spiral its way down through the head and the neck,

Down through the chest and the abdomen.

Let it spiral all the way down to the pelvic floor and let it continue to spiral down all the way to the earth.

Allow it to reach down,

Down,

Down,

All the way to the center of the earth and let it wrap itself around the center of the earth like the end of a string with a balloon at one end so that it can't fly off.

You are safe,

You are secure,

You are grounded.

And walk your awareness back up from the tether at the center of the earth,

Back up through this golden cord of the spine,

Back out through the crown of the head.

And you feel yourself expansive all the way out to wherever you came from.

Let yourself breathe into that space,

Connected above and below,

Connected to heaven and earth,

And you right here in the center between.

And we're first gonna start with a clearing practice.

You are a giver.

You love to help and people tell you their problems.

They ask you for help,

But they also give their energy to you because up to this point,

You've been willing to receive it because you felt like it was your duty.

It was your way of helping.

And I want you to go back through your whole history of this life and think about all the people's energy that you have taken on,

That you are still carrying from the time when you were small in an elementary school,

Helping your friends out,

Your other students,

Your teachers,

As you age,

You have classmates and teamwork.

As you continue to go through school,

You're in clubs and programs,

Maybe athletics,

Teams again,

And just really feel into all this energy that you've been carrying and taking on.

Feel your parents' energy,

Your siblings,

Your cousins,

The people that you were friends with,

Feel it all.

And then notice as you become an adult,

You have taken on your relationship energy from other people.

You've taken on colleagues' energy,

Bosses have given you their junk,

And you have taken it all on willingly.

And I want you to really physically,

Tangibly feel how much you have taken on and notice how heavy all this energy is.

There's nothing wrong with you taking it on.

We just know that it's not yours.

You don't have to keep carrying it.

So today we're gonna acknowledge all that's there and send it back to where it came from.

So feel your family's energy,

Feel your colleagues' energy,

Energy of friends from the past,

Energy of current acquaintances.

Feel all the energy that you take on from the public arena,

From news,

From media,

From social media.

Feel all that weight and notice how heavy it is again.

Feel how it presses your shoulders down in almost a painful way away from your neck.

It presses your neck forward,

Your head forward,

Like it's collapsing.

The chest caves in,

The belly has no strength.

You feel overwhelmed.

There is a heavy,

Not just physical energy,

But heaviness to this energy.

So feel all that you have done.

It has been a lot.

And really acknowledge the strength that you have gained from carrying all of this energy of everyone else for so many years.

And then now let's gather all this energy.

So you feel it in your belly,

In your head,

In your neck,

In your shoulders,

In your arms,

In your body.

And use your fingertips to kind of sweep it up like you were gonna sweep something off of the floor with your fingers.

Sweep it up and out of your body and gather all of this.

Don't forget the backside too.

We hold a lot in the back.

So bring all this energy into your hands and to one big ball.

Yes,

Feel its weight in your hands.

And then imagine a beautiful ball of light,

Almost a window,

A circular window of white,

Clear light.

This is the divine light that we are going to send this back through because we're not sending it back out of anger or frustration,

Irritation.

We're sending it back through love because it is theirs.

It is not yours.

So we take this energy that we've gathered in our hands and we press it forward out toward that white portal and we send it out,

Press it out with your hands.

Make sure you get all of the residue off of your fingertips.

And feel how different it is to embody yourself,

Just to be you,

No longer carrying all the other people around.

So just breathe for a few moments here into yourself,

Into all the space we just created.

Feel a smile on your face and in your heart.

Your body sits tall much more easily.

Your shoulders are resting down,

No longer weighed down.

Notice what this feels like.

Really embody it.

And because you are such an amazing giver and healer and person that people trust,

You have given your energy out into the world,

Just like they gave you theirs.

You have also given your energy to the world.

And just imagine how many people you have supported throughout all time of this life.

All the beings who are better for you,

Or maybe even the people who you dumped on that you didn't intentionally give negative energy to,

But you did.

Feel how all of your energy is spread out through your whole life in all directions,

Above,

Below,

In the four cardinal directions.

Feel all the different places and people it has gone to.

And just let all these visions come through us,

Not grasping any,

Just feel all this energy that you've put out there.

Notice where it is,

And we're gonna bring it back in.

So this is your energy,

And we are going to claim it as our own,

Whether it was intentional or unintentional,

We're bringing all that energy back in.

So again,

Let's use our arms,

And this time stretch them out wide and gather energy,

Pulling it back in towards your body,

Circling the hands wide and pulling in,

Reaching out,

Bringing in,

Reaching out,

Bringing it in.

And imagine all this desperate energy that you've sent out over the whole course of your life is now coming back to you.

It's flooding back to you.

It is so joyous to be home,

Back in its home,

Yes.

And then let's go ahead and gather a little bit more and press it with the hands into the body.

Press into the heart and into the belly.

Feel your energy getting sealed in,

Ah,

Yes.

Press your hands into any part of your body that feels like it needs to be anchored.

The hips,

The legs,

The arms and shoulders,

The belly and the chest,

The head.

Oh,

The head and the neck.

Ah,

Press it into your backside.

Feel your loving embrace.

And now sit here in the vibration of you.

Feel into your beautiful divine self,

All this energy,

All this prana coming back to you.

Breathe luscious deep breaths into who you are right now.

You have just regained so much vitality and you have just released so much weight that you've carried for so long.

I invite you to stay here and embody this feeling of lightness and vigor,

Joy and purpose.

Just let anything come that comes,

Let it all go eventually,

Let it all flow through.

Stay here as long as you would like and at the end,

When you feel complete,

Just tap the fingers by your side,

Circle the arms up above and bring the hands together down to the heart.

I invite you to journal at the end of your meditation.

But again,

Stay here relishing in you as long as you would like.

Many blessings and much love.
