8-Minute Meditation For Grounding Your Energy

Find a comfortable place to lie down, close your eyes, and begin to breathe slowly, inhaling through your nose, exhaling through your mouth. Breathe with the intention of slowing down and to relax. Focus on listening to the sound of your breath and do this for a minute or two and then let your breathing return to its normal rhythm. Come into communication with yourself and bring your attention into your head, resting your focus on the hypothalamus gland which is in the center of your head. I will call this your sacred space or your meditation sanctuary, your quiet space of self-reflection and the intuitive spot for sensing your inner voice of wisdom. Reach yourself and hear, sense and feel the presence of your inner voice. I suggest that you say hello to yourself mentally to establish a ritual for coming into sacred space. Within your inner space, evoke a feeling of being surrounded by nature, your favorite vacation spot, near the beach, in the woods that stimulates a familiar sensation of peace and tranquility. Be in a no-think space and hold that feeling for a minute. Invite your physical body to just drop into the earth. Do it no matter where you are right now in this present moment. Feel your connection to the earth. Notice how the earth hugs you and has always been here to support you. Sense the wisdom of allowing yourself to surrender. Give over your impulse to control anything now and release to gravity. Look around in your imagination and try to see what surrendering looks like. How does the earth help support the image of surrendering you have created in the mind? Can you see yourself lying on the earth's surface? Where are you on planet earth this very moment? See it fully in your mind's eye. Just release yourself to her intelligence. What does that even mean to you? How can the earth be intelligent? What is intelligence after all? Focus on your breathing and allow it to be natural. And as you lie here, see small roots begin to release from your back and drop deep into the earth. With each breath now, let these roots penetrate deeper and deeper into the earth's surface. On each exhale, feel the roots releasing from your back body, slowly making their way through the crust of the earth. Connect your roots to earth's intelligence. Take your time to experience the penetrating depths of your roots. What comes to mind when you think of your own roots? How does it feel? Can you sense grounding and stability? And in your mind's eye, look above you and imagine you can see a canopy of leaves protecting you. Allow the mind to focus on the leaves, the shapes, the colors, the texture and surrender your mind to. Imagine that your breath serves to feed the roots, your body, the trunk of a tree, your mind, the branches and leaves, metaphors for the thoughts that exist from within. And now, fully surrender to earth's intelligence and just rest here for a few moments. When you're ready, come back and see if you don't rise up more rooted like a tree. Namaste.
