Forgiveness, Confidence, And Personal Power: A Guided Meditation
Would you like to achieve Forgiveness, Confidence, and Personal Power? Follow these easy steps:
Sit comfortably in a quiet place, with your feet on the ground connected to Mother Earth’s energy, and your hands at heart center.
Taking a few deep breaths in and out, reach your hands up through your crown chakra spreading your hands out and away from your body, opening up your own inner Buddha light and draping yourself in timelessness and infinity.
Begin to visualize silver and gold threads sprouting out of your Crown Chakra, and follow these golden and silver braided ribbons of light/love energy up to a lush, expansive garden.
Stepping into a space time reality where miracles are common place and magic is real.
Allow yourself to lose your mind and come to your senses, bringing in to your awareness the interconnected web of life surrounding you, the fullness in all things present, and the life force energy in all other sentient beings. You hear the birds chirping, you feel the wind brisk against your cheeks, you feel rays of sunshine heating up the cells of your body, and you feel yourself sink deeper into the fertile, damp soil of Mother Earth.
In each moment, you feel more and more connected to ALL that IS.
Continuing with the breath, imagine three people or three situations in front of you that you want to forgive. Reminding yourself that when we forgive, it is not necessarily because the other person ‘deserves’ forgiveness, it is because we deserve peace. Reminding yourself further that peace, bliss, abundance, inner peace, joy, and fullness of life–are all things that are your birthright.
As you visualize these three people or three situations in front of you, say the following forgiveness offering and prayer aloud or to yourself:
I’m sorry.
Please forgive me.
Thank you.
I love you.
Now visualizing the second person and repeating the same.
I’m sorry.
Please forgive me.
Thank you.
I love you.
And now imagining the third person or situation, repeating the same.
I’m sorry.
Please forgive me.
Thank you.
I love you.
And finally, visualize yourself in front of you. Perhaps placing one hand on the belly, the right hand, and the other hand on the heart center, the left hand. Gently pressing into your physical body wrapping yourself in coils of light and protection.
Now make the same offering to yourself, forgiving yourself.
I’m sorry.
Please forgive me.
Thank you.
I love you.
This forgiveness prayer is a Hawaiian offering called Ho’oponopono. It can be a beautiful practice to incorporate in everyday life, and is also a powerful, simple way to raise your vibration anytime you are feeling adrift.
Returning your awareness to the Sacred Garden of life unraveling before you, continue with the breath.
Visualize your body as a clock face and bring your awareness to your third chakra–your core, your solar plexus. The third chakra is represented by the colour yellow, and is the house to your power center, your confidence, personal power, self-worth, and strength.
With your physical hand two to three inches above your belly, begin unwinding your solar plexus chakra in a counterclockwise direction.
Visualize all that no longer serves you pouring out of this energy center, releasing these heavier energies to the Earth to mulch and process for you.
Continuing with the breath, imagine a sphere of high vibrational, bright, yellow golden light in front of you. With your hand, draw this love/light energy into your belly, filling this chakra with cleansed, renewed, rejuvenated energy.
Now with your physical hand again, spin this third chakra–your naval or core–in a clockwise direction, harmonizing and rebalancing the new energies you washed over and brought into this energy center.
Having Illuminated your third chakra, take another few cleansing deep breaths in and out.
With your intention and attention still focused on your third chakra, repeat this affirmative mantra aloud or quietly to yourself:
I am confident.
I am strong.
I am worthy.
I am enough.
I am confident because I exist.
I am strong because I exist.
I am worthy because I exist.
I am enough because I exist.
Creation does not make mistakes.
Allow yourself to emit feelings of gratitude from your core as you hear the residual reverberations of this vibratory sound complexes resonating in your ear and throughout your body. Invite yourself to write these affirmations down and repeat them to yourself daily or any time you are feeling that you are not fully in your personal power and confidence. You are worthy because you exist. Reminding yourself that even if you don’t trust that yet, or feel as if you cannot yet trust yourself fully, that you can trust the Universe.
You are worthy because you exist. Creation does not make mistakes.
Now follow the threads of golden and silver light back down from the Sacred Garden and allow your consciousness to rest back into your physical body. With one hand on the belly again–the right hand–and the other hand on the heart center–the left hand–invite yourself to ground back into this space-time reality and return to the present moment, the Eternal Now, the only moment we really ever have.
And with that, having offered your prayers of forgiveness, and having illuminated your core energy centre of your naval chakra, go forth confidently in exploration of your highest bliss and passions throughout the day, co-creating your reality in every moment, reminding yourself that you are worthy because you exist, that the world needs your unique expression of your gifts that you and only you can share, and that you are always connected to Infinite Source Energy of ALL that IS.
