The Chakra Way Meditation Podcast

Today we are using the potent symbol of the Lotus Flower within our meditation. The Lotus flower is so important in symbology within the chakra system because the Lotus represents spiritual enlightenment, beauty, fertility, purity, prosperity and eternity. Its roots sit deep in the mud under water and the long slender stem reaches for the light and air above the water line. Without our roots...

Kali is a Goddess amongst Goddesses! She is strength, fierceness, empowerment. Her symbology is fascinating and today we invoke her by chanting a simple mantra for Kali. I hope you will find some images of her and do some research so that you can invite her energy into your life - she can be so powerful. Using the Mudhra, or hand position, during a yoga practice will bring strength to your practic...

Katrina Bos is a Tantra Teacher, an author, a Kundalini Yoga Teacher and runs courses, writes books and is totally inspiring. I adored our chat together and I hope you do too. You know it's a good conversation when we hit the hour long mark..! In this conversation we delve into some sexual content, so those of you who are of a sensitive disposition, look away now! We discuss intimacy and how we ca...

In today's meditation we are grounding the Sacral or Svadisthana Chakra. I ask you to lie back in Supta Baddha Konasana or reclined Butterfly pose with support under the outer thighs and hips, so that you are truly comfortable for the meditation. Grounding work through each of the chakras is vital, especially for the lower, "earthly" chakras, and in this mediation we visualise or feel into a whirl...

In this episode we are continuing with the theme of Greek philosophies of love and today we will look at Philautia which is self-love. Philautia is self-compassion and as Aristotle put it “All friendly feelings for others are an extension of a man’s feelings for himself.” or as RuPaul says "If you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you going to love somebody else?". Love that q...

Rebecca is full of wisdom on how to conquer your Inner Critic, that voice that tells us that we are not enough in some way, and in our chat she uncovers where that comes from and how to overcome imposter syndrome, how to get unstuck from these thought patterns and how to build a consistent practice that will aid us in silencing the inner critic and setting ourselves free to achieve our hearts desi...

Every so often I get a really good question from a listener and this one was a doozy! The question was this - Why do we always want to "win" and compare ourselves to others? What are we really doing? How can we evaluate or recognise our achievements and actually feel good about them, instead of feeling like we still have not done enough? - This one resonates so strongly and I'm so grateful to the...

Sometimes we just need a simple breathing mediation and today is that day! Life can challenge us and it is useful to remember that the point of all this (life, that is!) is to simply be in each moment, to grow, to love and seek ourselves. This simple breath, which I adore, connects us to the energies of both the Cosmos and the Earth. I hope that it allows you to connect with yourself as well as th...

In this episode I am talking with JJ DeGeronimo who is a Lightworker and Author of a series of books. Her latest is called "Seeking - 74 Key Findings to Raise your Energy, Side-step your Self-Doubt and Align with your Life's Work". The title tells us that JJ has a wealth of knowledge and she shares that with us. Her journey through the corporate world has given her many insights and alongside her...

Agape was a Greek Goddess of Love and the concept of her type of love has been used frequently to explain the type of love that God has for us and that we have for God. Today I am bringing Agape into a broader context of feeling connection, compassion and kindness to everyone who crosses our path. It is a tough time of year (especially in the cold, dark winter months for the Northern Hemisphere!)...

This is a slightly different meditation as it is quite active! I feel that at this time of year we have lost touch with our bodies somewhat - the holiday period can be really demanding and we give and give and ignore our own needs. So, in this, slightly longer session, I am inviting you to reconnect with your body in a couple of really beautiful somatic ways. Firstly, we will move the body to reki...

Amita is the founder of NourishDoc, a holistic wellness platform that supports women through peri-menopause. This is such an important time of life which will define our health in our older years. If we can develop habits and lifestyles that support our bodies holistically we will get through this transition so much easier. In this episode we discuss how we can support our bodies through the hormo...

As babies we learnt to self soothe with a pacifier or a soft toy and sometimes as adults we need to remember that we have the capacity to soothe ourselves from difficult emotions. In this meditation I offer you a beautiful and practical tool for self-soothing that I feel is very deeply comforting. Using the breath will always regulate the nervous system and when we practice these gentle breaths we...

As we enter the New Year it is time to let go of what no longer serves us and embrace that which serves our highest and greatest good, with intention. In this meditation we are reflecting on what we need to move on from, asking our Higher Self to show us the intention that we have for ourselves, and also letting go of the parts of us that don't do us any favours. No one is expecting this to be a "...

In this meditation we go deep into our bodies for a grounding experience on a more physical level. When we see ourselves as separate we create a space where we can find it more difficult to feel grounded. In this meditation you are invited to see that you are made up of all the same elements as your surroundings. What sets you apart is your energy, your spirit! With much love Rosanne Please suppor...

Hi there! Welcome back to your normal weekly meditation! I have missed creating these meditations for you and am so grateful to be back with this meditation on connecting with the Crown Chakra and all the Universal connection that we hold in this energy centre. I was inspired by the brilliant poem by Erin Hanson that I use and wanted to share the feelings of expansiveness and connection that it ga...

Having experienced the sharp end of being a single parent to teens she has a plethora of tools to help deal with what can be a really challenging time. Her expertise in EFT, which is the technique of tapping, is one that we explore and see how it can be used in most situations to self-regulate and cop...

In this episode we talk about her Dāśa mahāvidyā course where over 12 months she takes her students on an exploration of the 10 Tantric Goddesses that make up the Mahavidya.

Just a short one to let you know that I am taking a two week break from meditations since I am moving house and feeling fully stretched and am taking the pressure off myself whilst I go through the big move!

Clint Callahan is a therapist, social worker, EDMR practictioner and has developed "Small changes, Big Impact" to help people make a 1% daily change in their lives. We talk about EMDR, about how small changes can make a big impact and what those small changes might look like. We also discuss what it means to be a "people pleaser" and how to break the cycle of this behaviour. If you would like to g...

In this episode we are meditating on our cyclical nature. We owe our very existence to cycles - the cycles of the moon, the sun, water. And to our inner cycles - hormonal, energetic, creative. We are conditioned to believe that life should be one constant up-swing, to be continual growth, but in fact we are cyclical beings and if we are tuned into the Earth we can see that it is vital to have dorm...

Today we are going to focus on the Vagus Nerve. Why does the meditation and yoga community want you to stimulate this Vagus Nerve? Well, because it also is the nerve that will send the signal to the body that it can rest into relaxation and let go of feeling stressed. It is the nerve that takes you from being in the sympathetic nervous system where we are in fight or flight mode and into the paras...

It is hard to pin down what Dai actually does because he says he does what he likes. That sounds pretty unlikeable as we all want to be able to do whatever we want, right?! But Dai is an extremely likeable and energetic person who leads his life in a way that is truly inspirational. He lives it on his terms and with a zest for life, for inspiring others and putting his life's priorities front and...
