Color Yourself In Light: A Guided Meditation

Whether it’s watching the aura borealis, an artist’s interpretation of sun and shade in a painting, or a candle flickering, light is captivating. We use light to enhance our surroundings so we can feel differently: invigorated in bright light, soothed in subdued light.

In today’s meditation, we’re going to color ourselves in light. The color or colors you use is up to you. First, find a comfortable meditation posture, and close your eyes. Take a deep breath, hold it for a short pause, and then release it slowly. Again, take a deep breath, hold for a moment, and let it out slowly.

Return your breathing to normal. Notice your body begin to relax more. Scan your body, and allow your imagination to create color around different parts of your body. Bring in the perfect hue to support your meditation. You may find that green is healing, blue soothing, red enlivening. Depending on your state of mind and what you want to achieve with your meditation, create the palette that brings out the qualities you desire. (MORE)
