Love or Above Morning Meditation

It is Christie's phrase for living in the energy of love or something higher, such as joy, kindness or playfulness. She treats it as a frequency you tune into in the morning, then try to keep with you through the day rather than switch off after the session.

Each area gets its own purpose. The crown opens the connection, the third eye lets you see love in the world, the ears hear love behind what people say, and the throat speaks from it. The heart believes it, the abdomen feels safe, the stomach is congruent, the root moves you forward, and the legs and feet carry it into your movements.

Christie describes it as 'as above, so below.' After light comes down from above, you send it to the earth's center, which she pictures as a small ball of light that feels like a big warm hug or a mother's love. You then invite that support to rise through your feet, knees, hips and heart so you feel grounded.

You hold out your hands, physically if you like, and fill a ball of love that stands for your day. Into it you place needs met, enough time, a lively body, warm relationships and any quality you want, such as joy, kindness or resilience. She even suggests picturing a problem replaced by a harmonious solution.

Christie says some people cannot visualize, so you can feel it, know it, imagine it or picture it, whichever comes naturally. The practice works the same way with any of these.

Her closing request is not to disconnect. Go through your day thinking of the bubble of love around it, and radiate it to everyone you see, meet or think about.
