Audio-recording of Unit 7 - The Solar Plexus Chakra - Master Your Energy E-course

In this meditation, you will look at people and situations in your personal life that influence your personal power, self-esteem, and sense of identity. You will examine the relationships with authority figures and the roles you play in the family and social environment that are out of harmony with the true expression of your Soul. You will transform negative thoughts, feelings, and ties so that you can stand strong in your power and remain centred in your Soul presence at all times.

Meditation Script

I invite you to think about authority figures in your life. Authority figures are people or mentors who may influence your sense of personal power and identity. I also invite you to consider the roles you play, whether in your family, peer group, school, work, or other social environments. The authority figures and roles we want to look at are somehow negative. They undermine your self-esteem, strength and sense of autonomy, or they have conditioned you to be someone other than your true Self.

Time line

Think about a time when you were with an important authority figure, or you were playing a role, and there was tension, reactivity, or suffering. The role or authority figure drains your energy; you may feel entangled or tied, but scared to lose an important relationship or identity.

How old are you? Who is with you? It can be mother, father, teacher, work colleague or someone else.

Just observe this relationship and the role you play, and gather as much information as possible. You are only observing.

Behavior

Look at behaviour. How are the people behaving with you, and how are you behaving with them? Notice how people act and react. Notice your own reactions. Identify one or two core dominant behaviours. Make simple observations, matter-of-fact, to the point.

Feelings. Notice how you are feeling. How do you feel when they behave like this with you? How do you feel when you are in this role? Identify one or two core dominant feelings.

Take a moment to pause, rest, and detach yourself from the feeling. Remember, you are observing. You are holding yourself in a larger space of awareness. Name the feeling clearly, but remain detached.

Thoughts. Observe which thoughts are connected to the one or two core feelings you identified. Thoughts about your personal power, your self-reliance, your self-worth, your sense of identity. Maybe you made specific decisions about life and people because you were hurt, neglected, entangled, or otherwise. Perhaps there was a payoff for you in staying in the situation. Forgive yourself; this was the best you could do at the time.

Take a moment to pause, to rest, and let any realisation sink in. Which beliefs, thoughts, or decisions do you want to transform?

Ask for help. Connect to your Higher Self, the sage in you, the one holding a higher perspective and loving you unconditionally. Connect energetically, feel the presence of your Higher Self, emanating love and wisdom. Your Higher Self is going to show you a way to empower yourself. You are opening to a new level of Self-empowerment.

Maybe you need to embody a quality, like courage or joy, or adopt a new attitude; maybe there is a different way of behaving, or acting; or perhaps you need a new kind of focus, a new dream. Whatever suggestion your Higher Self offers, turn it into an experience, embody the quality, the attitude, visualise yourself in the new behaviour, feel yourself in the new dream.

Allow the help to come through an image, a symbol, a new movie in the chosen situation. Alternatively, you may connect with a light-being, a deity, an angel, a power animal, or a nature spirit, all representing the new quality, behaviour, or dream you want to invite into your life for self-empowerment.

Notice what new thoughts and decisions arise within you. Make new affirmations and choices. Perhaps you need to set new boundaries. Maybe you need to speak your truth and say your No. Observe how you feel when you do so. Be open to experiencing what it feels like to stand in your Power.

Listen to your body and release

We are now letting go of any energy that stands in the way of embodying this new state of empowerment. Feel you are entering a healing space with your Higher Self. Feel what is happening energetically in your body. Where do you feel the tension in the body? Feel whether there is any energy invasion or entanglement. Maybe there are ties and chords, attachments. Maybe you built armour in your body.  Maybe you are becoming aware of a contract.

Allow the transforming light of your Soul fire

Allow the light of your Higher Self to stream down into your body from your crown. Imagine Soul fire as a violet light, descending and clearing any negative feelings, ties, and attachments in your body. The fire is only burning what you are not: your hurt or anger, any attachment, contract or limiting identity. See the transformation happening in your body. You may also imagine a real fire in front of you, where you are releasing any negative energy pattern. Burn or throw everything in the fire.

If there is a person involved, see yourself standing in your own sacred space, while the person moves towards the light of their Higher Self, who will take care of them. Know that you are not separating; you are both standing in the sacred space of your Soul.

Create protection

Feel yourself standing strong in your power, grounded and connected to your Higher Self. Fill your space with the light of your Soul and centre in the heart. Seal and protect your aura. Especially protect your heart with any shield of your liking. You are protecting your divine flame. Affirm your sovereignty, your new choices, and stand strong in the power and truth of your Soul.
