If
you are new to meditation, the simpler, the better. Meditation isn’t meant to
be complicated or confusing. Breathing and chanting are often the easiest for
beginners.
Below is a beginner’s meditation for the 7 main chakras:
- Gently bring your mental focus to the base of your spine, the ROOT chakra. Let it rest there for a few moments, then take a deep inhale and say to yourself “I AM” on the exhale say “GROUNDED”. Allow the state of groundedness to wash over you and observe it calmly.
- Gently advance your mental focus upward to the belly button area, the SACRAL chakra. Let it rest there for a few moments, then take a deep inhale and say to yourself “I AM” on the exhale say “WHOLE”. Allow the state of wholeness to wash over you and observe it calmly.
- Gently rise your mental focus up to your diaphragm area, the SOLAR PLEXUS chakra. Let it rest there for a few moments, then take a deep inhale and say to yourself “I AM” on the exhale say “BALANCED”. Allow the state of balance to wash over you and observe it calmly.
- Gently bring your mental focus to your heart, the HEART chakra. Let it rest there for a few moments, then take a deep inhale and say to yourself “I AM” on the exhale say “LOVED”. Allow the state of love to wash over you and observe it calmly.
