Cleansing Meditation

I'd like to share a cleansing technique that I discovered first hand when meditating. It is best to do this when meditating, as it puts you in the most perfect harmony with your higher vibrations. During this deep cleansing exercise, the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual auric bodies shall all be purified. You'll not even have to think of any specific one in much detail, because if the cleansing is done thoroughly enough, you'll be clean through and through.

Step one. Relax in to a comfortable position.
     
Step two. Take slow deep breaths and let them out just as slowly. Picture with each in drawn breath that you take love and light in to your body. With each exhalation you release all the worries and negativity that you've built up over the day and even the week. Doesn't that feel nice? Just let it all go. Keep up your deep breathing through the meditation.
     
Step three. Now begin from any starting point that your mind chooses to give you and start walking slowly at a relaxed pace toward a warm sandy beach. The son is out and it is a beautiful day. The blue sky is full of puffy white clouds. The son's heat is not damaging to your skin, and it isn't even too hot. It is just gently warm, and sinks in to all the muscles of your body, relaxing them fully.
     
Step four. The cleansing begins. Walk to the edge of the ocean. Allow the gentle waves to lap at the ends of your toes. Feel how warm the salt water is? It is cleansing the ends of your toes. Remain there, not progressing into the ocean until you feel that your toes have been completely cleansed. It can take as long as you need for it to. You'll know when it is time to progress.
     
Step five. Now move forward when you're ready. Allow the ocean's gentle laps to cover your feet, cleansing them fully. This may take as long as you need for it to. Don't progress until you're ready.
     
Step six. Now move in to the ocean just a bit farther. Feel the ocean's cleansing waves against and throughout your ankles and the lowest part of your lower legs. Remain thus in the ocean until you're ready to progress.
     
Step seven. Move forward slightly until the waves are cleansing your lower legs a few inches above your ankles. Remain until that part of your legs have been fully cleansed.
     
Step eight. Wade out a little until the water has climbed a few more inches. Allow it to cleanse your lower legs. Move on when you're ready.
     
Step nine. Allow the water to knock against your knees, cleansing them throughout until you're ready to progress.
     
Step ten. Allow the gentle cleansing waves to brush your upper thighs. Remain at that point in the ocean until you're satisfied.
     
Step eleven. Continue out in to the ocean a bit farther. Allow the purifying waves to cleanse you at mid thigh. Remain there for as long as you need.
     
Step twelve. Progress slowly allowing the waves to cleanse your thighs inch by inch for as long as you need. Spend as much time on each stopping point as you feel that you should. As you move forward, your hands, which hang at your sides in a relaxed manner, will begin to be submerged in the cleansing waters of the ocean as well. Allow them to be cleansed throughout one finger joint at a time.
     
Thirteen. Allow the cleansing water to cleanse your hips and lower arms alike. The waves crash gently in to your body and pass through you leaving you perfectly clean.
     
Fourteen. Move forward slowly and feel the ocean cleansing your lower belly. Feel yourself becoming secure in yourself and your path in life as you become clean throughout your whole being.
     
Fifteen. As you slowly progress, becoming more and more cleansed with every step that takes your body farther in to the ocean's warmth, you feel yourself letting go of all your emotional baggage that keeps you from becoming clean. Meditate on all the baggage that you're letting go of as the ocean waves move against your third chakra/your solar plexus.
     
Sixteen. As you at last progress in to the ocean, lift your arms out in front of you and embrace the cleansing waters. Begin to swim out into it's warmth. Feel your arms, shoulders, and upper body becoming cleansed. Don't allow the water to rise higher on your body until the part you're working on has been fully purified.
     
Seventeen. Feel your hair lifting slightly from your head as if in a light breeze. It is the ocean waves that lift it, and as they do, the hair is being cleansed.
     
Eighteen. Allow the water to lap softly at your neck, then your chin until they're totally clean.
     
Nineteen. When you're ready for your head to be cleansed throughout, allow your body to become submerged fully in the ocean. Don't worry. You will not drown. Instead you can breathe easily as the ocean cleanses your head.
     
Twenty. When you're perfectly clean, the waves of the ocean will gently toss you back and back until you're placed kindly once more on the sandy beach. The sand of the beach is soft and doesn't irritate the skin in the least. As you rise and walk away feeling completely cleansed, it doesn't cling to your quickly drying skin. Now you are pure and feeling light and wonderful. As you walk back the way you've come, you will end up in the room in which you began the meditation, and when you rise, you shall keep the feelings you took from the beach with you.
