And now it's time for inner peace.
Welcome to this grounding meditation.
Today our focus is going to be connecting to Mother Earth below.
Make sure you are in a very comfortable position in a place where you can fully enjoy your time.
It is best if you have your feet planted on the floor without shoes or socks for this grounding session.
But if you would rather lie down with your feet elevated,
That is okay too.
Let us begin.
First,
Become aware of your breath.
And when you do so,
Please take a deep cleansing breath in.
Breathing in as much as you can.
And when you exhale,
Feel your body relax.
If you haven't already,
Please allow your eyes to close.
Let's become aware of the bottoms of our feet,
As well as the tip of our toes.
Your feet have been taking you so many places over the years,
And they deserve to fully relax and let go.
Allow relaxation to amplify in your feet by simply placing your awareness on them.
Breathe in deeply,
Feeling comfortable and relaxed.
All of your attention on the soles of your feet.
Imagine that this is what connects you to Mother Earth.
Each step you take has made a difference in your life and moved you through hard times as well as achievements.
Breathe in deeply and send your feet love and respect for everywhere they have taken you.
Now imagine the earth below you supporting your every move.
The ground is your place of connection.
And no matter how high up you go or how long your feet are elevated,
You always become grounded once again.
Become aware of the ground below,
Wherever it may be,
And know that it is a source of pure connection to all there is.
Imagine now that the bottoms of your feet,
The roots of your soul,
Are growing and extending down towards the earth.
They make contact with the soil below,
Wherever it may be,
And you feel the instant connection and security filled with unconditional love.
So as you relax,
Feel this amazing connection with the earth.
Feel these roots strong and unbreakable.
They are now going into the earth and taking root,
Allowing you to feel ultimate relaxation.
See these roots however they appear for you.
They could be your favorite color or like roots from a plant.
Feel them grounding you.
The soles of your feet are strong and resilient.
You have found the link between you and the earth.
This is a bond that cannot be broken.
You came from the earth and we're always connected to it.
Feel the union between you and the soil.
By becoming grounded on a daily basis,
You are strengthening the alliance between earth and your being.
Now I would ask that you allow the earth and all her love to teach you anything you need to know and listen with an open heart and mind.
I'm going to leave you here for one minute as you hear what you need to hear from mother earth.
Take a deep cleansing breath in through your nose,
Feeling your stomach with air and exhale fully and completely out of your mouth.
Familiarize yourself with the messages you hear.
Allow the earth to introduce you to the power of true connection.
You have a strong alliance with the earth grounding you in soul and body.
Now I would ask that you breathe in deeply again.
Imagine that you are drawing this powerful experience of connection up your legs,
Feeling this bond,
Relax your body as it releases any tension along the way.
Breathe in again,
Feeling the union of earth and body traveling up into your hips and pelvis,
Deeply relaxing you breathing fully and completely feel the partnership between your being and the earth traveling up into your abdomen and ribs,
Noticing how being grounded is such a blessing.
Now feel this same connection travel into your chest and lungs,
Gracing your heart with love.
The earth loves unconditionally.
She forever gives and only hopes for care and respect in return.
The deep bond of love is traveling up your neck,
Deleting any tension that is there.
This relaxing sensation goes into your entire head,
Training all of your muscles and bones to become fully relaxed.
The Alliance between you and earth travels all the way to the very top of your head.
Notice how you feel right now.
You are fully and completely grounded one with the earth,
A perfect combination between earth and flesh.
There is a deep relationship between you and earth,
One that cannot be broken and must always be nurtured.
You and mother earth have formed a partnership,
One that makes you feel completely loved and cared for.
I'm going to leave you here now for two minutes where I want you to imagine that you are breathing in peace and love and everything that is positive.
And you are exhaling anything that is not serving you any self doubt,
Any worry,
Any ill words you may have heard you were releasing all of that into mother earth as she heals you.
If you should have a thought outside of this grounding experience,
I would ask that you gently and kindly acknowledge it and release it and get back to this grounding moment.
I will leave you here for two minutes.
Take a deep cleansing breath in through your nose.
Exhale fully and completely out of your mouth.
Now hear yourself saying these positive words,
Reflecting our true connection to the earth below.
Togetherness,
Partnership,
Bonded,
Unified,
Connected,
Grounded,
Peaceful.
Imagine again,
Those roots coming from the souls of your feet.
They have now grown deep into the earth that you can feel the connection to the earth below you.
Begin to slowly draw your awareness to this present moment,
Returning your thoughts to your current surroundings and the place and the space that you were in.
Breathe in deeply again,
Feeling forever connected to the earth and all of her wisdom.
Start wiggling your toes,
Shrugging your shoulders,
Moving your head around,
Bringing your awareness back into this room that you were in the place that you were in.
Whenever you were ready,
You may open your eyes and give thanks for the earth and your connection to it.
Peace and an abundance of love.
