Reclaim Your Powerful You! – Day 8
Centering
Begin with your feet firmly planted on the floor. With focus and intention, imagine gathering all of your energy – including your “scattered self” – into a magnificent ball of light within you. Continue to draw your own energy to the center of your body, using your mind’s eye, a specific sound or tone, or even your hands. Feel the power and flow of the energy as it moves within you. Once centered, you become aware of your poised presence.
Shielding
Start by visualizing an intense energy – the energy you gathered in your centering exercise – coming from within yourself to surround you, as if you are creating a protective membrane. Allow it to grow and expand with Love and Power. Many people use the image of a white light. If you are not a visual person, try other shields such as sounds, vibrations, or intentions. Your shield helps keep discordant energies out of your sacred space.
Opening
To open consciously, simply intend to open your heart and mind. Imagine your heart opening to all beings in the world, and your crown opening to the heavenly realms. As you breathe, allow energy to stream down through your crown, into your heart, and out the front like an open flower. Your heart becomes a conduit of unconditional Universal Love as you open to the flow of Source.
Of course, there are many effective ways to ground, center, shield and open. Once you familiarize yourself with the concepts, and develop a practice, you will begin to notice the difference between when you use the techniques and when you don’t. In time, your energetic field will integrate the methods, help you raise your vibration and you will only need to summon them as the need arises.
