Meditation Script:

Today, we’ll be focusing on the solar plexus and enhancing our sense of confidence. This

chakra has a direct anatomical location at the center of the abdomen. The solar plexus

is a collection of nerves that serves as the communication powerhouse between major

organs within the abdomen and the brain.

Seated, bring your attention to the space just above your belly button. Imagine a bright

crayon yellow spiral of light moving around the lower part of your thoracic spine, located

at your mid back. Imagine the brightness of the spiraling light growing

brighter, a powerful yellow-white. Bring to mind a moment in your life when you

felt confident, capable, and powerful. Perhaps think of something simple,

successfully growing a plant from seed, or changing a light bulb, or sharing an

empowering word that changed someone’s day for the better, perhaps following

through on a plan or promise. Whatever that moment was that brought you a sense

of confidence, bring that to mind. Recall the feeling that came up as you embraced

and delivered on the task. How did it feel in your body to know what to do or

say, to be sure of your actions and thoughts?

Now, bring to mind a moment where you felt underconfident, less than capable, or

insecure. Recall the feelings that arrived in that moment, perhaps anxiety, or fear, or a

sense of imposter syndrome. Breathe. Deep breath in. Deep breath out.

Now, letting go of the tasks associated with feeling confident, allow feelings of

empowerment and confidence to arrive without attaching any accomplishment to the

feelings. Knowing that you have a unique experience and are a unique presence in

every space you enter, kindly offer yourself this affirmation, “I am confident,

I am empowered. I am confident, I am empowered. I am confident, I am empowered.”

Imagine that bright yellow light spiraling up and down your body, from abdomen to toes,

from abdomen to the crown of your head. Imagine that light sending glowing yellow

rays throughout your body, communicating confidence and power to your entire

being. Enjoy a deep breath in, deep breath out.

Move through your day or into rest, confident in who you are and empowered to show up

as your unique self. Thank you for meditating with me. Peace.
