Chakra Meditations  What follows are a couple of techniques
used in accordance with the chakras. You
have already read and hopefully tried
the other techniques: cleansing and
"energy-stem". Here are a couple more
to further you along. You may like
part of one technique and part of
another, that's okay, mix them together
modify them any way you feel comfortable
with or even incorporate the two
together! Remember too the breathing
techniques mentioned earlier and use them
No matter what you come up with, the
important thing is that you feel
comfortable and that YOU DO IT! ~*~ The Cord One good technique involves the use
of visualization and an "astral cord".
This method can be used for"grounding",
(staying in touch with the Earth energy),
and also of a simple meditation practice.
It will also help you keep in touch with
your physical body and you may want to
try this first before you begin your
meditation(s) and affirmations. ~*~ To begin, seat yourself in a straight-
backed chair with your feet flat on the
floor and your spine and head straight.
Keep your arms and legs uncrossed and
place your hands on your thighs, palm-
side up. Close your eyes, settle in and
relax. Clear your mind of the junk as
best you can. Try the "window shade"
technique mentioned in the first
meditation of relaxing from your feet
all the way up. When you are ready, imagine a cord (or
pole if you will, a string, rope, wire
wood, anything that appears in your mind.)
This cord is full of energy and runs
from the base of the spine--first chakra
or Root Chakra. This cord connects from
there to deep within the Earth's center.
If you live in a high-rise, no worry.
Pass the cord down through the levels,
the pavement, and into the ground and
stretch this cord to the very center
of the Earth itself. ~*~ Feel the energy through the cord flowing
between your chakra center and the Earth.
Take time to explore the other centers,
pay attention to what you feel and see.
If corrections or alignments are needed
now would be a great time to do it. Stay
as long as needed or wanted until you
feel the uninterrupted flow coursing through
fluidly. This will assure your body that
it is safely connected to Mother Earth
and in its security, will be more readily
to accept any new energies to which you
will submit it to. ~*~ Again, do not worry if you can't keep
it connected in your mind on the first
few tries. Its not easy and quite alien
if you have never tried it before. If you
don't get quite a clear image, too, don't
fret about it. Time and practice are the
only way you will begin to feel comfortable
and also be able to relax and visualize
with relative ease. Keep this energy and image in your mind
Do not break the connection. Allow the
energy to fill you up and when you are
ready, slowly stand to an upright position
stretch and stamp your feet. This act puts
the "lid" on the energies so no leaking
can occur and acts as its own "seal of
approval" so to speak. You should feel
a genuine sense of well-being yet empowered
by the energy and your mind will certainly
be in a much more receptive mood. |
