Thank you for joining me. Today on HeartBalm Meditations with Sunny we are stepping into a classic grounding meditation called The Recharging & Grounding Meditation. This will be a part of the HeartBalm Meditation toolbox for you to use as needed. The link to all of the meditations in the toolbox is on the home page at HeartBalm.

This is a great meditation to bring energy, love, and connection back to your mind, body, and soul, and for those times when you feel depleted of energy and tapped out of resources. This is a wonderful meditation that I learned from a friend years ago and would like to share it with you for all of your healing and grounding needs. (This is a wonderful meditation for empaths and those that are highly sensitive.)

Find a soft, comfortable spot to settle into – seated with feet on the floor if you can. Take a few deep breaths in and out. Begin to notice your breath flowing naturally, and feel your body relaxing as your breath gently rocks you in and up and then down and out. Notice any thoughts that come to your mind and allow them to move on easily and effortlessly. Continue noticing your breath as you relax more and more.

Imagine now that there are rose bushes in full bloom to your right and one to your left and let the roots begin to extend downward reaching deep into the earth. Now imagine another rose bush above you and one in the space below you, and let those roots sink down into the earth. These rose bushes are rooting you deeply into mother earth and providing safety, connection, love, grounding, and healing. Feel your body gently pulled to the earth and feel the slight hum of energy moving through your body.

Now begin to notice a bright flow of light energy coming from above you and entering your crown chakra, at the top of your head. See and feel it flowing down your neck and into your shoulders, then down your arms, forearms, wrists, hands, and out through your fingers. Feel the ends of your fingers tingle as the energy pours out. Notice the color as this flow of energy comes into the top of your head and flows down through your arms and out your fingers. Allow this energy to keep flowing into your crown and back out, merging with your energy field and flowing back around to continue this graceful fluid movement. Notice the energy and the color becoming stronger and more vibrant.

As you allow this energy to continue to flow notice a stream of energy coming up from below you now and flowing up and in through the bottoms of your feet, into your ankles, your legs, your hips, torso, chest, neck, and flowing out the top of your head. Notice the color of this energy flow coming from the earth below and moving up through your body and out the top of your head like a whale spout. Notice the energy merging with your energy field and flowing back around in a continuous flow of light and energy. Notice the energy and the color becoming stronger and more vibrant.

Tune in to both energy patterns continuing to flow – energy from above moving down and out through your hands, and the energy from below moving up and out the top of your head creating a harmonious circle of colorful crystalline energy in and around you.

As this flow of energy continues notice a large ball floating above your head. See this ball as magnetized pulling in and filling up with all of the kindness that you have gifted to others, all of your heartfelt words and thoughts of support and love for others, and all of the wonderful things you have done, or given to others. A soft intention of love and support, a hug for a grieving friend, a gift of flowers, kind words to buoy a loved one, thoughts of gratitude for a special person in your life, or sharing kind attention to your pet. Continue to recall thoughtful, loving, and generous actions and intentions that you have gifted outward to others, friends, and loved ones. Whatever these loving kindnesses are let them move to the ball above your head noticing how it begins to fill up and become heavy.

It’s time now sweet one to allow all of your heartfelt words, thoughts, actions, and intentions that you gave of yourself to come back to you now. When you are ready pierce the ball above your head allowing everything that you gifted to others to spill out and come back to you now – and replenish, refill and renew you. Feel the flow of your love and compassion coming back to you, and showering down over and through you. Take in the beauty of your gifts and accept them fully – knowing that you are worthy, deserving, and ready to receive this grace – your grace. Take a few moments now to feel your renewed and recharged self and sink into a feeling of complete love, fulfillment, gratitude, and beingness.

Say to yourself now: “I am loved”, “I am safe”, and “I am grounded”.

Slowly take in a few deep breaths. Begin to notice your breath again feeling back into the space where you are seated – feeling back into your body, and the space around you. Take a few deep cleansing breaths, and when you are ready open your eyes.

Thank you for joining me sweet one. Go feel adored. I love you.
