Set a timer for how long you wish to meditate, recommended time 10-20 minutes. If you're new to meditation, I advise you to start with less and successively lengthen the time you meditate.

Find a comfortable seat, feeling the sit bones anchoring you to the earth.

Lighten the spine, lower down the shoulders away from the ears.

Place the hands in dhyana mudra, thumb and index finger touching.

Close the eyes, calm the breath and begin to turn inwards. Giving yourself permission to be here now, in this space, at this time.

Begin to visualize a red spinning wheel at the base of the spine, at the location for the Root Chakra.

The sound or mantra of the Root chakra is LAM. Chanting Lam silently to yourself activates the Root chakra.

Whenever you notice your awareness has drifted of, gently bring your awareness back to silently repeating the mantra, Lam, Lam, Lam and visualizing the spinning wheel of red energy at the base of the pelvic floor. 

Happy Meditating!
