Energy Renewal
Not
the stuff which flows through houses, but the stuff which keeps
us alive. After all the hubub of the holidays, I found myself
needing to take time out to recharge my spiritual batteries. In
keeping with my New Year's Resolution "To Inspire and Be
Inspired" I've been reading books about Chakra energies,
meditation and healing...AND putting what I learn into practice
through daily meditations. The results have been really wonderful,
and it was easier to get into the habit than I thought it would
be. Here is my basic energy meditation that I do using the Earth's
own energy...call it Chi, Pranic Energy, Ki, Magic, by whatever
name it's still the same and it still works.

Energy Tree Meditation © 2007 Beth Hansen-Buth
Go
to a quiet place where you will not be disturbed and can sit comfortably
in a chair with your feet touching the ground. Have a glass or
bottle of water nearby. Begin by closing your eyes and breathing
slowly and deeply, expanding your rib-cage and your belly for
six breaths. Notice how this feels by focusing on the expansion
and contraction of your ribs. Relax and breath normally. Now bring
your focus up between and behind your eyebrows, this is your Ajna
Chakra or Third Eye and will help you with visualizing the rest
of the meditation. Keep your eyes closed and picture a ball of
white light in the center of your body, imagine it growing and
expanding filling your body and creating a glow to about two feet
from your body all around. At the outer edge imagine that a light
blue electric light starts to form, like a forcefield it is protecting
you and your space from any distractions.
Now
feel the weight of your body where you are sitting, and imagine
your chair as a tree stump, with roots reaching deep into the
earth. Focus on your contact to the stump, and imagine that the
white light flows freely from you to the stump and back again.
Notice any sensations you may feel as you connect and ground yourself
to Mother Earth. Move your feet back and forth, and wiggle your
toes while touching the floor. Imagine your feet have sent shoots
down deep into the heart of Mother Earth as energy begins to flow
effortlessly like water into your Energy Body. Picture the energy
as a warm, golden-green color or loving pink color, whichever
you are more comfortable with. Still your feet as they continue
to drink and focus on the rising warmth as earth energy fills
your legs, knees, hips, torso, arms, hands, neck and finally your
head where it flows out the top, down your body, and back to the
earth through the trunk of your tree-chair to the center of the
Earth to be transformed into clear clean energy again. Allow it
to flow at it's own pace, and imagine as it does so it's cleaning
away all your doubts & fears, anger & frustration, and
any negative speck or blocked idea that keeps you from pure love
and joy. As Earth Energy cleans out a space, it fills it with
love, peace, and contentment. Focus on how this makes you feel.
When
you are ready, open your eyes and drink your glass of water. Know
that the water came from the earth and is nourishing your Energy
Body which just had a good workout! As you continue your day,
you can renew your connection to the earth by imagining a vine
reaching from the base of your spine to the center of the earth.
Like an anchor it keeps connected to Mother Earth and you can
make it as large or small in your imagination as you think it
should be. Use it any time you need to eliminate any negative
or unpleasant emotions or energies throughout the day.
