• Set a timer for how long you wish to meditate, recommended time 10-20 minutes. If you're new to meditating, I advise you to start with shorter meditations and successively lengthen the time. 
  
  
  
  
• Sit in a comfortable position, drop the shoulders down away from the ears and slightly lower the chin to the chest to lengthen the spine. 
  
  
  
  
• Place your palms together, at the level of your navel. Keep the fingers straight with the fingers pointing away from you and cross the thumbs. 
  
  
  
  
• Close your eyes to turn your awareness inwards. Take a couple of deep breaths to anchor yourself in this moment and allow the outside world to drift away. 
  
  
  
  
• Begin to visualize a bright, golden yellow spinning wheel around the area of the navel, the location for the solar plexus chakra. 
  
  
  
  
• Chant the mantra RAM silently to yourself to activate solar plexus. 
  
  
  
  
• Accept the thoughts as they come and go, whenever you realize your mind has drifted away and gently bring your awareness back to repeating the mantra Ram, Ram, Ram, as you visualize the spinning wheel of bright sun golden energy behind your navel.
  
  
  
  
• When your timer goes of, take a moment to visualize the golden yellow energy to spread from your solar plexus chakra into every cell, filling you with light, love and self acceptance. 
  
  
  
  
• Gently open your eyes and bow to your inner light. Namaste.
