Spiritual Technology - Visualize Your Way To A Balanced Root Chakra

Muladhara or Root Chakra is the center of subtle energy circulation. Through it, the energies of the planet penetrate the subtle energy system and put you in touch with the energy of Mother Earth. It is the source of life force for other energy centers. The Root chakra is related to the creative power of sexual energy. When this chakra is weakened, it indicates disorders of sexuality or endocrine dysfunctions of the gonads. When excessively energized, they indicate excessive hormones, exacerbated sexuality or even the presence of tumors on the spot. You can enjoy this experience alone or invite a friend!

Before beginning this meditation start by creating a serene environment where you feel comfortable. Allow your body and mind to relax. Invite yourself to be present and in the moment. You can incorporate music, aromatherapy or anything that help you to tune into your bodily senses.

Once you feel ready, begin by laying down on your back. Tune into your breath and place your left hand on your heart and your right hand on your belly. Slightly tuck the tailbone and place a pillow under your knees to support the lower back. Tuck your chin to elongate the back of the neck. Begin by taking deep breaths through the nose. Feel your right hand rise on the inhalation and sink on the exhalation. Continue breathing for several minutes.

• Breathe in slowly and deeply. As the air enters and leaves your lungs you will feel more and more relaxed. Visualize a forest as vividly as you can. Look at the tall trees, notice the shades of green, some have a solid dark green, others a faded tone. Look at the grass, the flowers, see their colors. You notice that most of the flowers have many shades of red.

• In front of you is a trail. Enter it. Walk slowly, breathing in the fresh air, feeling the heat of the sun passing through the trees, feeling the cool breeze. You're feeling good. You are calm, and connected to this wonderful nature.

• Further down you find a waterfall, the water is rolling through the rocks, the water is crystal clear. Hear the water rumor. Give yourself up to that feeling. The water descends gently and forms a lake. Besides this lake, there is a soft, still moist grass of the dew. Sit comfortably.

• Focus your attention on the red flowers. Notice the tones. Begin to breathe slowly and deeply, feeling that the red color enters your body through your breath and goes to your Root Chakra that lies at the base of your spine. This red light descends through the soil into the earth. Feel that this color forms roots like the ones of a deeply buried tree.

• Imagine now that the earth's energy is rising through these roots, flowing through your body and out through your solar plexus, at the height of your stomach. Continue to feel this energy flowing through your body and feel it completely established.

• Now imagine the energy of the cosmos. A bright golden ray is flowing to you through the top of your head. Traversing your entire body and penetrating the earth through the roots formed by the red light and through your feet. Feel the ascending and descending flow taking different directions and blending harmoniously in your body.

• Feel that you are full of energy. You are feeling healthy and well disposed of. Open the eyes of the mind and see yourself again in the forest. Take a deep breath (3x). Gradually go back to the here and now, moving your feet, your hands and, stretch your full body. Finally, open your eyes and smile.
