Hello and welcome to this chakra meditation, designed to unblock your seven main energy centres and restore balance to your life. Practising this regularly enough will encourage the free movement of energy through your body, as it cleanses and balances your chakra system, bringing you a newfound sense of peace and calm.
You can begin by focussing your attention on your breathing. Let go of any thoughts or worries and concentrate on the present moment. Take a deep breath, in through your nose and out through your mouth. All of your thought is now focussed on your breathing. As you breathe in deeply, push your stomach out and count to three at the top of each breath. As you breathe out, you can let go of any tension and relax, counting to five on every out breath.
Going deeper
Keep this breathing pattern going for as long as you feel comfortable. And as you begin to drift away, you leave your thoughts behind, and feel a wonderful sense of calm, as you relax further, going deeper and deeper.
Now, I want you to concentrate on your seven main chakras, bringing your attention to the base of your spine and up to the top of your head. Here lie your most important energy centres, so visualise white light, passing through these and moving up to the top of your head. As you do this, you feel a warm tingling sensation moving up your spine, and you notice that you feel a little lighter as it passes through you.
Now, starting with your root chakra, bring your awareness to the base of your spine. Concentrate on this area and notice any sensations here. I want you to imagine that you are breathing in lifeforce energy into your root chakra as it passes through as a beautiful white light. As you are doing this, visualise your roots growing down from the base of your spine, connecting to the ground below, burying themselves deeper and deeper into the earth. Focus your breath here and continue to breathe deeply. Now imagine the colour red, appearing in a circular shape, and place that circle down into the area at the base of your spine.
I want you to repeat these affirmations along with me:
I feel grounded and centred…
I am strong and supported…
Now, I want you to allow your awareness to move up towards your sacral chakra, just below your belly button. This is your chakra of emotional intelligence, creativity, and pleasure. Feel yourself breathing into this area, extending that white light up from the base of your spine, and allowing it to pass through your naval. Focus your breathing on this area, and visualise a warm orange light, glowing in a circular shape. Picture it in the same area, moving in and around your body just below your belly button. As you do this you feel a wonderful sense of calm enveloping you, feeling creative and confident at the same time. Continue to breathe deeply, feeling nice and relaxed, letting go of any thoughts and tension.
Now I want you to repeat these next affirmations along with me:
I am creative and connected..
I radiate joy and happiness…
Bring back your focus to your breathing now and move that attention up between your naval and ribcage. This is your third chakra, your solar plexus. This is the source of your personal power. So, just allow your breath to soften, as you breathe in that lifeforce energy, further up into your body through your solar plexus. As you continue to relax, you feel growingly confident, productive, and energised as you bask in this wonderful feeling. Now I want you to visualise a warm yellow light, once again, manifesting in a circular shape below your ribcage. Bathe your solar plexus in warm yellow sunshine, powering it with the nourishment that it needs and repeat these affirmations after me:
I am one with the power of the universe…
I feel confident and energised…
Focus now, your attention on the centre of your chest. This is your fourth chakra, the heart chakra, and it is your source of self-development and unconditional love. Soften your breath, and breathe consciously into the area of your heart, feeling a connective sense of love as you do so. Now I’d like you to visualise the colour green, the beautiful colour of spring, bathing your heart chakra with nourishment and healing. Stay present with this feeling and embrace it, building a connection with this love that grows deeper and deeper. You are able to feel new, profound levels of compassion and forgiveness.
Now, repeat these affirmations after me:
I give and receive love unconditionally
I listen to the truth in my heart
Continue to let go of all thought, and stay present in your being.
Your awareness is growing stronger and stronger
You can feel your vibration rising
Now bring your awareness to your throat chakra and move that wonderful light further up from your heart and into the area of your throat. This is your chakra of personal expression and freedom of will. Now, just allow your throat centre to soften and expand, envisioning a blue, glowing, energy. Breathe this energy into your throat chakra, clearing, opening, and freeing your self-expression and creativity. As you do so, you feel deeper and deeper relaxed, focussing only, on this moment in time, fulfilling all the needs of your throat chakra.
Now, I’d like you to repeat these affirmations after me:
I speak my truth clearly and kindly…
I have the courage to be my true and authentic self…
Move your focus now, up to the centre of your forehead towards your third eye. This is your chakra of wisdom and intuition. Visualise that warm, bright light, moving up to your forehead now, energising your body as it does so. It is now travelling all the way up from your root chakra, passing through your body, upwards through your spine. You can imagine the colour indigo, like the velvety shade of the night sky, manifesting as a circular shape in the centre of your forehead. As you continue to relax, you feel clarity, insight, and, understanding, connecting with your higher self.
And so repeat again with me:
I am open to divine wisdom…
I trust my intuition…
Continue to let go of all thought…
Relax
You are insightful and imaginative…
Now, finally, move your focus towards your Crown chakra, the seventh chakra, at the top of your head. It is your direct connection to the universe around you and allows you to accept and process divine guidance. Softly bathe in your crown, balancing, restoring, and harmonising. Move that warm bright light, up to your crown now, and imagine it travelling out of the top of your head, flowing freely as it does so. You feel enlightened, open-minded, and at one with the universe.
Visualise the colour purple, in the shape of a circle around the top of your head and repeat after me:
I am one with the infinite all, my higher self, and angelic guidance…
I listen to the wisdom of the universe…
You feel a profound sense of balance and awareness..
Now I want you to imagine that the white that you have been working on, is now moving freely up from the base of your spine and out through the top of your head. All of your chakras are lining up, radiating and recharging as they gleam in this beautiful, white light. The energy is moving freely through your body, bringing you balance and positivity. You now feel higher levels of awareness and compassion. So direct this energy now, with focus and intention, to your belly and store it there for when you need it next.
You should know now, that you are capable of expanding your awareness and raising your vibration whenever you choose to. You are connected with your divine and infinite wisdom and can draw on this at any time. Your chakras are aligned and open so that you can use your intuition to make the right choices from a place of love and compassion.
Before this meditation ends, I want you to take a moment to appreciate how wonderful you truly are. You are a miracle, a divine expression of consciousness, incarnated in human form. You are all possibility, you are all that is, and you can create any reality you dream of. Take this new perspective and apply it to every aspect of your life. Good luck.
