✨ A guided exploration of visualization meditation as a practice for activation, releasing and healing. Through the power of imagination, intention and inner awareness, this guide invites you to turn inward, connect with your inner world, release what no longer serves you and explore the potential for personal growth and transformation.
Intro: The purpose of this visualization practice is to activate the power of the living and present force at the core of your being, expel lower vibrational energies, as well as cleanse and heal your internal body to promote a sense of inner peace and well-being, while elevating your being to a higher vibrational state.
When you vibrate at a higher frequency, you tap into a personal power that brings clarity, peace, love, and joy. You may notice that your body feels lighter, both physically and emotionally, and your energy is filled with light. Life begins to flow with ease, and you attract similar higher vibrational energies, creating an overall sense of harmony.
Please be aware that these practices may not produce immediate results and may have a delay.
Visualization Materials:
- Sound therapy, such as singing bowls sound to cleanse, heal and uplift your energy and environment
- Candles to amplify, release and purify, such as a white and black candle.
- Healing crystals, such as clear quartz, rose quartz and amethyst.
(While not essential, the inclusion of candles and crystals in your personal practice can help to amplify your energy, release, cleanse and promote healing. Also, if performing this practice in public, visualization materials are not necessary)
Visualization Method: It is recommended to perform this practice in a peaceful and relaxed environment. However, step 1 can also be done in public if needed for energy protection, or as a daily routine in your personal practice to raise your energy. You can practice this technique once or twice a day, for as little as 5 minutes per session. While practicing for over 30 minutes may feel overwhelming, a 20-minute session is considered optimal. Additionally, it is only recommended to perform all 3 steps in your personal practice around the time of a full moon, during or after your self-reflection or when feeling low vibrational, such as feeling unwell or stressed.
To get started with your personal practice, place your crystals near you or on you, and the candles placed nearby and away from flammable materials, drafts and vents, and then light your candles. Play the singing bowls sound nearby or use earphones. (Be cautious about using high volumes when playing singing bowls, as they tend to naturally raise in pitch). You may either lie down with your arms beside
you, palms up or down, in a comfortable position and relax your body completely or sit in an upright position with your legs crossed and place your palms on your knees, facing upwards or downwards. If
you choose to sit upright, sitting on a cushion and leaning your back against a wall can provide additional comfort. You may choose to close your eyes or leave them open. Placing your palms upwards is perceived to invite receiving and allows us to practice gratitude, while placing them downwards is considered to foster presence and grounding within ourselves. Also, when practicing visualization in public or when using candles nearby, it’s important to be mindful of your surroundings and only do so when you feel comfortable, safe and at ease, regardless of the position you choose.
Gently inhale through your nostrils, filling your chest and abdomen with air. Gently exhale through your nostrils, expelling the last trace of air from your body. If your mind wanders while visualizing, simply guide it back to your body with gentleness.
Visualization:
Step 1
Inhale – Focus your attention towards cultivating awareness at the core of your being. Feel the power of the living and present force that lies within you expand and activate.
Exhale – Visualize a white light emanating from the core of your being, circulating throughout your entire body and radiating beyond into your energy field. Feel the flow of energy coursing through you, creating a tingling sensation on your skin.
Repeat until you feel activated, or an elevated state of consciousness if only completing step 1.
Step 2
Inhale – Visualize a beam of white light shining down on you. Inhale the light and feel its gentle flow pass through the pores of your skin, if you are lying down, or enter your crown chakra if sitting upright.
Exhale – Visualize the white light expelling black smoke through the pores of your skin as well as through your nostrils and out of your energy field, representing low vibrational energies such as fear, anxiety, depression and doubt. Feel the flow of energy coursing through you, creating a tingling sensation on your skin.
Repeat until you feel cleansed.
Step 3
Inhale – Visualize a beam of blue light, coinciding with the white light from above. Inhale the light and feel its gentle flow pass through the pores of your skin, if you are lying down, or enter your crown chakra if sitting upright.
Exhale – Visualize the white and blue light circulating throughout your entire body, cleansing and healing your DNA, cells, organs and blood, while elevating your being to a higher and more enhanced state. Feel the flow of energy coursing through you, creating a tingling sensation on your skin.
Repeat until you feel higher vibrational, and then conclude by returning to step 1.
Warning: Candles can cause fires, never leave burning candles unattended.
