Calm & Strong - Grounding Meditation With The Net Of Light

So if you'd like to start to close your eyes and just tuning into your body,

Into your inner world,

Listening to the sound of your breath,

Just settling into the moment,

I'll invite you to take a deep breath into your nose,

Letting it be the deepest you've taken all day and exhaling and releasing any stress,

Any tension,

Breathing in deeply into your body,

Your bones,

Your blood and releasing and letting yourself sink just a little bit deeper into the moment here and now.

Taking another deep breath into your body and just sinking down into the moment.

So we're going to invite a journey down to connect to our roots where we can release tension,

Release stress,

And then we're going to focus on really calming our body into here now moment and in any moment that you choose to do this meditation in the future.

So maybe you want to keep breathing deeply or maybe you want to just let your breath settle.

Just find what feels good and begin to imagine red roots are growing from the soles of your feet down to the ground,

To the foundations of the building and down to connect to the earth below us and just tapping into all the interconnectedness there,

The roots,

The mycelium,

All the little microorganisms,

Even the stones and it's darkness.

We're safe,

We're comfortable,

Connected to the earth.

Allow your roots to flow down to connect to the bedrock,

This strong grounding force just a few meters below us,

Always present,

Always holding and allow your roots to grow past that to connect to the mantle,

This fiery layer of magma within the earth.

Feel the power,

The heat,

The reds,

The oranges,

The molten rock,

The power that's here just beneath us,

Always available to be tapped into,

To recycle,

To transmute and to transform any heavy unwanted feelings that we have in our body,

Emotions,

Any stress.

We can give it all here to the earth and it's almost like compost.

It can be recycled and transformed into something of more benefit.

So here I'd like you to just tap into any fear that you have in this moment,

Any stress or tension in your body.

Focus into it,

Into your heart,

Your stomach,

Wherever you hold this stress.

Witness it with your breath.

It's there for a reason,

It has a purpose.

It's trying to keep you safe and well.

Acknowledge it and say that you've heard it.

You'll take its advice and now you want to release it.

So I invite you to take a deep breath of fresh air into your body and release down through your roots any of this excess tension,

Stress,

Fear.

Breathing in deeply,

Release perhaps an audible sigh down to let this tension be burned away and recycled in the fires of the earth.

Again breathing in deeper again than all of your breaths so far today,

Filling your body up with lightness,

Holding it for a moment and releasing anything that doesn't serve you in this here now moment.

You may like to continue this breath cycle for a moment and in this space we acknowledge that these feelings and emotions and sensations are of value.

They're important and they're integral to our human experience.

What we're doing in this moment is just easing off the pressure,

Releasing the excess.

We hold the wisdom that lies inside that tension,

That voice,

But we release the rest.

We release what doesn't serve us to be burned away in the fires of the powerful earth beneath us.

So I invite you now to continue growing your roots down through the earth deeper,

Deeper,

Deeper,

Deeper,

Deeper,

Connecting to the core,

The crystalline core of the earth.

This center of gravity that holds and supports us,

Keeps us grounded and present.

Feel yourself anchor here.

Know that in this moment you are grounded,

You are connected,

You are safe and held by the earth.

And from this space,

I invite you to invite the energy of the earth to flow up through your roots,

These carefully tended roots that you've nurtured with your attention,

Your intention and your attitude.

Invite red healing light from the earth to flow up and into the soles of your feet,

Nurturing red light flowing and calming as it goes through your calves,

Your thighs,

Into your pelvis,

Connecting to the base of your spine,

This center for earth energies in your body,

Feeling yourself rooted and supported as this energy flows up through your torso,

Sinking into every muscle,

Into your gut,

Soothing,

Releasing any tension into your stomach,

Offering healing and support in this earth connection.

Allow it to flow into your heart space,

Feeling the truth in the moment that you are held,

You are supported here on the surface of the earth.

Amidst all the madness,

All the chaos,

You have your center,

Calm and supported,

Nurtured.

Allow it to flow down your arms,

Into your fingertips,

Knowing that from your place of calm,

Your space of being held,

You can facilitate this for the people you love in your life,

Your family,

Your friends,

The elderly,

The children,

The vulnerable people.

You can offer your calm,

Your support and your assistance in the way that is needed in each moment in our changing lives.

Allow this to flow up into your throat,

Where you can use your voice to calm and soothe,

To ease the stress,

The panic and allow it to flow up and into your head.

Feeling the supportive,

Red,

Nourishing light of the earth throughout your whole body,

Your whole internal ecosystem,

Soothing and calming,

Bringing ease in this moment right here,

Right now.

Together I invite you to call upon a great net of light,

White light shining brightly as far as the eye can see.

This net of white light holds and supports the earth.

Hundreds of people all over the world connect to this net of light on a daily basis,

Offering support,

Healing,

Light,

Compassion and love to the collective.

And as you call this image into your mind,

You add your own intention,

An intention for healing,

For peace,

For calm and anything else that you are holding in this now moment in your heart,

Adding it to the net of light.

And as you add your intention,

You feel yourself connect to this net.

And one of the nodes where this light,

This net crisscrosses,

You're the centre.

And over here I'm holding the centre and anyone else who's connected to this net of light all around the world is holding it.

This net of white light has the capacity to hold and support you,

Hold and support our healthcare system,

All the people within it,

To hold and support our earth,

Our wildlife,

And hold and support the strength of love,

Unity,

Connection and calm.

Here right here now on earth in this moment of global crisis,

In this moment of fear,

We hold the love,

The light,

The compassion and the peace.

In this space of calm,

We can offer it to those that we love.

We can offer it to our neighbour down the road or a stranger in the shop with a smile,

With a word of calm.

This is a quiet revolution,

A quiet push back to the fear and the panic.

But together in many numbers we're strong,

We're resilient and we're connected,

Intimately connected to each other,

The net of light,

The strength of the earth.

From this place of strength and calm,

I invite you to deepen your breath.

Together we've got this.

It will be okay.

We are strong,

We are united,

We are resilient.

We are strong,

We are united,

We are resilient and we vibrantly glow with health and strong immune systems as you let the light of the net of light flow throughout your whole body.

Glowing bright healing white light in every cell,

Every strand of DNA,

Every hair on your head,

Taste bud on your tongue,

Every eyelash,

Every organ,

Glowing vibrant white light of peace vitality health and harmony in this space of connection,

Peace and compassion.

Now I invite you to become again aware of how your body feels in this moment and I invite you to deepen your breath in this knowing,

In this space of connection,

Breathing yourself back into present awareness right here,

Right now,

Breathing in like deeply into your body and releasing any fear,

Anything that doesn't serve.

Breathing in cleansing light,

I invite you to begin to wiggle your fingers and your toes,

Holding this image of the net of light,

This space of power.

Even as you move about your day and move from this space,

This inner space,

You can hold that image with you.

You can call upon it any moment that you need it and you can breathe into it when you need this connection to be strengthened.

So perhaps now you'd like to stretch a little bit and when you're ready you can flutter your eyelids open.

Gov'n Míle Bhaegis lát,
