Meditation with colour

This meditation also involves a short exercise at the start. Meditating with colour can be very powerful as it enables you to bring in a very specific vibration of energy that your body or a specific part of your body is in need of by using specfic colours,

The higher consciousness is aware of any imbalances in the body or energy field and so by using the higher consciousness to guide you towards the needed colour vibration you can meditate with this colour to re-dress the balance.

Exercise
Before doing this meditation, you will need to ascertain which colour you need to work with at this time. To do this, you can use a pendulum if you are familiar with using them, or simply use the intuition.

You will find it useful to have a colour wheel to hand and then hold the question in mind "What colour do I need right now?" while using the pendulum to pick a colour or, if using the intuition, choose the colour you are immediately drawn to.

If you have some coloured cloths or coloured cards, you could use these in the second part of the meditation by holding the colour over the area that needs that colour energy and visualising it as fluid energy which can permeate into the body. The meditation below can be used as a guide and the words can be easily adapted to incorporate coloured cloths etc.

Meditation

Quieten your mind and consciously release any tension that you feel throughout your body.

Visualise a golden ball of light within the earth and take a strand of that light up through the base of your spine and let it rest in your heart centre.  Next, visualise a white ball of light just above your head in your soul centre and allow a strand of that light energy to flow through the crown centre at the top of the head and down into your heart centre. Take a moment to adjust to being connected above and below.

Imagine now that the ball of light  just above your head has changed into the colour that you have chosen in the exercise.

Emmanating from that coloured sphere is a shower of light raining down into your energy field saturating it with its pure coloured light energy. Take a few moments to let it fill your energy field.

Now, focus your minds attention back to the coloured sphere of light above your head. Bring the coloured sphere down through the crown centre at the top of your head and into your body.

Use the creative imagination to allow this coloured sphere of light to move through your body to the energy centre or other place in your body that needs it most at this time. Let the sphere of coloured light settle here for a while.

Its energy is fluid and radiates out, revitalising and strengthening this area. Hold your focus on the radiance of this coloured light for a few moments.

When finished, allow the coloured sphere of light to move down through the body, out through the base centre at the bottom of the spine, and into the earth.

Slowly bring your senses and awareness back into the room, become aware of the feeling of the earth beneath your feet and open your eyes when you feel ready.

The potential of the whole

I experienced this lovely meditation while receiving absent healing from two friends.

It was very powerful and took me to a place of expansive understanding.

Take yourself to the shore of a vast and isolated lake. Sit quietly and meditate as the waters stretch out before you. The sun is setting and  dusk is upon you creating a slight haze across the lake. 

As you meditate, you become aware of a light within you, a single flame gradually growing brighter. As your mind quietens, you become less aware of yourself and start to blend with the flame until you and the flame are as one, glowing brightly.

With the light that you are generating, you now become aware that there is something across the other side of the lake. As the image clears in your mind, you realise that what you are seeing is another light, another flame, on the opposite shore of the lake.

Soon, you notice another light glowing to the left and then another to the right. Gradually, more and more lights appear. When you first sat on the lake shore, you thought you were alone, now you realise there are many lights, many flames, dotted all around you.

You watch as all the individual flames flicker and dance, uniting together as one.   You are no longer a single flame, you are part of each and every light you see around you.

The flames reflect in the water of the lake, magnifying the potential of the light being generated. The surface of the lake becomes alive, a glowing glistening expanse of pure intent. A pool of light, a pool of love, a pool of potential which radiates out to the far corners of a space beyond the extent of your imagination. 

You realise the potential of the whole is far greater than the individual and, more importantly, that the individual is always part of the whole. Keep this thought in mind, while you sit for a few more moments or as long as you feel comfortable.

Slowly bring your senses and awareness back into the room, become aware of the feeling of the earth beneath your feet and open your eyes when you feel ready.

A rose in the heart

This is a really simple but beautiful meditation, inspired by an article I read in an old copy of Paradigm Shift Magazine.

Rose are symbolic of love and are lovely to use with a heart centred meditation. This meditation represents the opening of  the heart centre to reveal our inner beauty and the light which shines from our core.

Meditation

Visualise a golden ball of light within the earth and take a strand of that light up through the base of your spine and let it rest in your heart centre.  Next, visualise a white ball of light just above your head in your soul centre and allow a strand of that light energy to flow through the crown centre at the top of the head and down into your heart centre. Take a moment to adjust to being connected above and below.

Using the creative imagination, visualise a pure white rose within the white ball of light just above your head.

See this rose coming down through the top of your head, your crown chakra, and continuing down through the brow and throat and then into the heart.

Focus your awareness on this rose and pay particular attention to its petals.

Watch as the petals unfold and open out one by one, as the rose expands  to reveal an inner bud .

Now that the rose is fully open, it radiates out beautifully soft, loving light and energy.

Stay with your focus on the rose within the heart for as long as you feel comfortable before moving on to the next step.

Slowly bring your senses and awareness back into the room, become aware of the feeling of the earth beneath your feet and open your eyes when you feel ready.

The light in the clearing

Using the power of the creative imagination, this meditation enables you to visualise a space where the lower mind can becomes quiet.

In this stillness, your being becomes vitalised and your true thoughts become clear

See yourself standing before a vast field of long tall grass. The grasses are as tall as you are and  sway in the breeze like a golden sea. You find yourself a pathway through the tall grass and as you pass through you notice the dull hum and constant buzzing noise that they make as they dance in the wind.

You come to a clearing in the centre of the field and notice a sphere of light in the middle of this clearing. You go to sit down and notice a seat made perfectly for you.

As you sit, you become aware of a stillness, a silence far removed from the hum of the long grasses. This stillness makes the sphere of light in front of you ever brighter. As you sit and bask in the light emmanating from the sphere you find strength and comfort from the stillness that surrounds you.

Sit there as long as you need. You may hear words of inspiration, images or some form of message. Make a note of anything that comes to you. Know that this seat by the sphere of light in the clearing is always there for you to return to.

When you are ready, rise from your seat and walk out of the clearing to find the path back through the field of tall grass.  Walk through the field of golden swaying grasses until you are back at the edge of the field where you began.

Slowly bring your senses and awareness back into the room, become aware of the feeling of the earth beneath your feet and open your eyes when you feel ready.

Meditation with the global collective consciousness

This visualisation was given to me during a meditation at the time of the new moon. It expands our minds and makes us aware that we can connect to a consciousness higher than our own and that we can join with other beings to be as one.

The meditation can be as long or short as you like. Stay in the space for as long as feels comfortable and keep your mind open and receptive. Make a note of any images or messages that you receive.

Take a moment to adjust to being connected above and below.

With your focus in the soul centre, become mindful of a golden ball of light high above you which is the global collective consciousness.

Mindfully take a strand of light from your soul centre to join with this collective consciousness and link in to this higher frequency vibration.  Let yourself adjust to this frquency of vibration for a few moments and feel your entire being buzzing with a fine golden energy which rains down on you like a fine mist.

Take a moment to realise that you are actively part of a collective consciousness and we are connected to all light beings. As each person connects up to this consciousness, it raises our vibration and works towards raising the whole vibration of the planet.

Feel connected, feel as one, feel supported by all other light beings, be strengthened and nourish and at the same time you are helping to strengthen and nourish others. Time and distance right now are immaterial. Stay in this place for as long as you feel necessary.

Slowly bring your senses and awareness back into the room, become aware of the feeling of the earth beneath your feet and open your eyes when you feel ready.

Meditation to clear Chakras

The body has 7 major energy centres, often referred to as chakras, which are aligned along the body from the base of the spine to the top of the head. These centres are associated with different parts of the body on a physical level as well as on many other levels. The centres can become blocked, preventing the free flow of energy around the body, and this can manifest as emotional problems, mental issues or even as physical pain. A good explanation of what each centre relates to can be found here.

This is a slightly longer meditation as it works through each of the centres in turn repeating the same process to bring light down from the soul and help clear any blockages. However, it is well worth spending some time on to get the most benefit, particularly if you are already aware that a particular centre needs clearing.

I have represented each energy centre as a sphere of light in this meditation, however you may wish to adapt it to visualise coloured spinning disks or glowing gems. There is no wrong way to do this, just keep an open mind and keep that connection to the higher consciousness of the soul centre and see what may materialise and what insight you may be given.

As an example, I will write in the comments below this post the images that came to me the last time I used this meditation.

Meditation
Quieten your mind and consciously release any tension that you feel throughout your body.
Visualise a golden ball of light within the earth and take a strand of that light up through the base of your spine and let it rest in your heart centre. Next, visualise a white ball of light just above your head in your soul centre and allow a strand of that light energy to flow through the crown centre at the top of the head and down into your heart centre. Take a moment to adjust to being connected above and below.

Base or Root Centre
Begin with the base centre and visualise a red sphere of light located at the base of your spine. Note whether it looks a little dull or faded. Bring a strand of white light down from the soul centre just above your head, taking it through the crown, through the brow, through the throat, heart and stomach and into the base centre. Feel this centre being energised and filled with life force energy. Continue to visualise the flow of light until the base centre is bright and shining.

Sacral Centre
Now move up to the sacral centre which is located just below your navel. Visualise an orange sphere of light and note any dull or faded areas. Again bring a strand of white light down from the soul centre, just above your head, taking it through the centre of your body and bring it to rest in your sacral centre. Feel this centre being energised and filled with life force energy. Continue to visualise the flow of light until the sacral centre is bright and shining.

Solar Plexus Centre
Move up to the solar plexus centre which is located in the centre of your stomach area just below your ribs. Visualise a yellow sphere of light and note any dull or faded areas. Again bring a strand of white light down from the soul centre, just above your head, taking it through the centre of your body and bring it to rest in your solar plexus centre. Feel this centre being energised and filled with life force energy. Continue to visualise the flow of light until the solar plexus centre is bright and shining.

Heart Centre
Next move up to the heart centre which is located in the heart. Visualise a green sphere of light and note any dull or faded areas. Again bring a strand of white light down from the soul centre, just above your head, taking it through the centre of your body and bring it to rest in your heart centre. Feel this centre being energised and filled with life force energy. Continue to visualise the flow of light until the heart centre is bright and shining.

Throat Centre
Move up to the throat centre which is located in the throat. Visualise a blue sphere of light and note any dull or faded areas. Again bring a strand of white light down from the soul centre, just above your head, taking it through the head and bring it to rest in your throat centre. Feel this centre being energised and filled with life force energy. Continue to visualise the flow of light until the throat centre is bright and shining.

Brow Centre
Now move up to the brow centre which is located above the eyes in the centre of brow. This centre is also known as the third eye. Visualise an indigo/violet sphere of light and note any dull or faded areas. Again bring a strand of white light down from the soul centre, just above your head, and bring it to rest in your brow centre. Feel this centre being energised and filled with life force energy. Continue to visualise the flow of light until the brow centre is bright and shining.

Crown Centre
Lastly, move up to the last centre within the body: the crown centre which is located at the top of the head. Visualise a white sphere of light and note any dull or faded areas. Again bring a strand of white light down from the soul centre, just above your head, and bring it straight down to rest in your crown centre. Feel this centre being energised and filled with life force energy. Continue to visualise the flow of light until the crown centre is bright and shining.

Now that you have worked through each of the seven major energy centres within the body, scan through your whole body to check that each centre is shining brightly and that all appear equal in size. If any still appear too small, or too large, simple visualise bringing light down from your soul centre above your head to that centre until it feels balanced.

When you are content that all of your centres are balanced and re-energised, slowly bring your senses and awareness back into the room, become aware of the feeling of the earth beneath your feet and open your eyes when you feel ready.
