Meditation - How to tune in with the energies that surround your being

First it is important to find where you feel most relaxed either indoors or in nature but let it be a safe haven where you can be undisturbed and at peace with yourself, then when sitting allow your whole body to relax starting from your head to your toes. Allow the peaceful energies that surround you to tune out the drifting thoughts in your head which will allow you to meditate on a deeper level.

Then starting with your crown chakra, slowly open as if it was a flower opening for the first time, then repeat with your second chakra, throat and heart chakra.

Once your higher chakras are open I would like you to imagine that you are in a special place put aside just for you and your healing guides. All is peace and standing in the centre will be yourself and the healing guides.You will begin to be aware that a vibrational energy is being emitted by your guides as if your body is a tuning fork allow yourself to be one with these energies it is a symbiotic process.If it helps you to visualise imagine that your body is a radio that isn't tuned in to the correct station so we have to adjust the knob to find the station you need in other words tune in and so it is with our soul bodies.We need to tune ourselves into the right frequency from a soul level. That is why your guides are there to help, you need to work as one with them.

Once you have achieved this and you will know intuitively you may thank your guides for their help and guidance. Slowly bring yourself out of your meditative state and close down your chakras, by slowly folding in the flower petals into a bud of each chakra. Do not worry if you have problems tuning in the first time next time you will be successful have faith in yourself and in your guides.There is no time limit on how long your meditation should last it is different for each of us just go with the flow towards harmony and inner peace.
