From below, sense the stillness of the earth at the base of your spine, and the movement and fluidity of the water in your abdomen. The earth and water energy coalesce, rising up, turning into a warming fire in your solar plexus.
Your solar plexus is glowing and expanding with its vibrant, yellow light.
This fire keeps you warm, helps you burn food, and gives you energy.
Visualize a mid day sun. Imagine its rays shining on you giving you visions, ideas, and confidence
The 3rd Chakra is your center, the seat of your personal power.
It is here that you become your own person – an individual ready to leave your own unique impression on the world.
It is here where you integrate your feelings, ideas, thoughts and intelligence, where you exercise your willpower and take actions, where you turn challenges into opportunities, and turn your visions and dreams into reality.
In the past, you may have turned your power over to someone else so you could be accepted and loved.
Or perhaps you sought out power over others in order to feel respected and admired.
Right now you are in touch with your true power.
Honor and respect yourself and your power
Take complete responsibility for your words and actions.
No longer need approval from others.
No longer need to have power over others.
Know that true power doesn’t shout or cry.
True power is quiet, firm, steady, and effortless.
Know who you are, why you are here, and what you are here to do.
Being yourself is a powerful act
Do what feels necessary
Do what feels right.
Stand up for yourself.
Act with confidence and inner conviction.
Create things that are beautiful and meaningful
Make the world a better place
Summon you inner fire that dwells in the abdomen.
Use your personal power to give you courage, discipline, strength, patience and perseverance to walk confidently in the direction of your dreams
Perhaps taking baby steps, one at a time, to fulfill your purpose in life. Perhaps walking at whatever speed feels appropriate
Feel the warm fire radiating from your solar plexus, penetrating into every cell of your being.
Watch the fire burning away any doubt, shame, guilt, insecurities and jealousies that were lodged there.
Watch the fire leaving behind strength, confidence and belief in yourself.
Slowly, the fire is winding down. But its warmth stays at your center.
Feel it every time you put your hands on your solar plexus.
Ignite it anytime you need to
