A self healing chakra meditation using breathing, affirmations, guided imagery and visualization techniques. This guided meditation explores the 7 chakras, combining Eastern philosophy with Western psychology to restore their harmony and vitality.  Meditating with the 7 chakras offers a perfect fusion of Eastern philosophy and Western psychology. Originally discovered by ancient yogis as physical centres for focus during yogic practice, the Hindu chakra system has evolved over thousands of years as a study of personal development and means for spiritual awakening respected by contemporary Western psychology. Various meditation techniques are employed in chakra balancing to support their vitality.  Chakra, the Sanskrit word for wheel, describes the spinning, vortex like quality of these energy centres. Chakras are like processing stations for ‘subtle energy’ that flows through and around the body; they act as windows on our inner life, linking the physical, emotional, mental and spirit.

Chakra Healing Meditation

 Allow your eyes to comfortably close and come down into your breath, into your body. Relaxing your belly, softening your mind. Feel the support beneath you. Connect down to the ground below, and let it take your weight. Become aware of the sounds around you. Let them be there. Notice the light and shade. Feel the air touching the surface of your body. Sense up to the sky above, and out to the horizon stretching all the way around you. Feel the earth supporting you. And allow your mind to empty what it no longer needs to hold onto from the day. Let it go. Flow out and away. Allow your body to release what it no longer needs to hold onto from the day. Let it go. Flow out and away. Draw yourself back from where you've been in your day. Draw your energies back home to your centre, home to you. And ground yourself in this moment here. Begin to sense the space around you. Breathe with the space. And become aware of the ebb and flow of your breath. It's rise and fall. Sensation. Temperature. Sound. Breathe down to where the weight of your body rests. Below the base of your spine, to your root. Your chakra of belonging. Breathe into your root. Let it soften and gently expand on your breath. Taking in life force energy and nourishment. Allow your root to connect down, down to the ground below you. Deep into the earth. As you do so, invite in the colour red, the colour of the earth. Bathe your root in red. Empowering. Embodying. Grounding you in the here and now. Let your root take what it needs. And say the words, I am here. I have a right to be here. The earth supports me. When you are ready, allow your awareness to move up to your belly. To just below your navel. To your horror. Your chakra of emotional intelligence, choice, creativity, movement and pleasure. Breathe into your horror. Letting it gently soften and expand on your breath. Taking in nourishment and life force energy. As you do so, invite in orange, the colour of setting sun. Bathe your horror with orange. Balancing, empowering, motivating. Letting your horror be fed. As you say the words, I honour my needs. I allow myself to be nourished. And when you are ready, move your awareness up to the soft area below your breastbone. To your solar plexus. Your chakra of personal power. Breathe into here. Allowing your solar plexus to soften and expand on your breath. As you do so, invite in the colour yellow, the colour of sunshine. Bathe your solar plexus with sunshine. Replenishing, restoring, nurturing. Letting your solar plexus take what it needs. As you say the words, I value myself. I am enough. I am more than enough. I am worth my weight in gold. When you are ready, bring your awareness up to the centre of your chest. To your heart, your chakra of self-development and unconditional love. Gently breathe into your heart. Letting it soften and expand on your breath. As you do so, invite in green, the colour of spring or rose pink, whichever feels right. Bathe your heart centre with nourishment, renewal, healing. Letting your heart take what it needs. As you say the words, I am greatly loved. I allow myself to give and receive love freely. I am nourished by the power of love. In your own time, move up to your neck, to your throat, your chakra of self-expression and personal will. Allow your throat centre to soften, expand and breathe. Inviting in blue, the colour of sky. Breathe sky into your throat centre. Clearing, opening, softening the need for control. Breathing self-expression and creativity. Let your throat take what it needs. As you say the words, I hear and speak my truth. I express myself freely. I allow myself to go with the flow of life. When you are ready, take your focus up to your forehead, between your eyebrows to your third eye. Your chakra of wisdom and intuition, gently allowing it to soften, expand and breathe. Inviting in indigo, the colour of night sky. Bathing your third eye with indigo. Soothing, balancing, bringing clarity, insight and understanding. Let your third eye take what it needs. As you say the words, everything is unfolding exactly as it should. Moving up in your own time to the top of your head, to your crown, your chakra of oneness. Allowing your crown to soften and breathe. Gently inviting in a light violet. Softly bathing your crown. Balancing, restoring, harmonizing. Let your crown take what it needs. And say the words, I am one with the universe. I am one with the whole. When you are ready, come back to yourself as a whole. Back to the ebb and flow of your breath. Back to your centre. Breathe in to your core. And say the words, I am whole. I am perfect just as I am. And in your own time. Become aware of the air on the surface of your body, the sounds around you. Close your chakras down a little, just having the intention is enough. Become aware of the support beneath you. And come to rest on how you feel. Hold yourself with loving kindness. And appreciate yourself for the beautiful, unique being that you are. And when you are ready, you can draw this meditation to a close. Attention! You You You You
