About this session
- Opens the heart
- Grounds your energy
- Deepens compassion
- Supports mindful parenting
You begin seated and upright, breathing roots down into the centre of the earth, then drawing that energy up into your heart. A pink or green glow fills you, you join an imagined circle of listeners, and the love swirls into a whirlpool that overflows to children. Ariya Lorenz guides it.
It suits parents, grandparents, teachers and anyone who cares about children, near or far. Use it at night to close the day with a generous heart, or in the early morning to set a loving tone before you show up for the children in your life.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
Why does the meditation start with roots into the earth?
You breathe out roots through both feet and the perineum down to the planet's centre, then breathe fresh life force back up. Each out-breath releases anything no longer useful, and each in-breath recharges you. It grounds you first, so the love that follows comes from a steady place.
What are the pink or green light and the bubble about?
After filling your heart with breath, you picture pink or green colour rising from the heart centre. It fills your emotional body and overflows into your mental and spiritual auras. You then sit in a bubble of love about six feet around you, which you can enlarge as you like.
What do I say to myself with the breath?
On the inhale you can say, "I am love," and on the exhale, "I love." You breathe in love from above and from the earth, and breathe out whatever stands in the way of love. You can follow all three directions of flow or just one.
What is the circle and the whirlpool?
You imagine sitting in a big circle with everyone listening, sending love out to your left and receiving from your right. As it grows, the circle becomes a clockwise whirlpool that surrounds the whole group. The direction fades and everyone is filled and "recoded" with the truth of who they are.
What happens at the count of three?
Light children from the divine realms are invited in, and the whirlpool overflows like a fountain. Every particle finds a child who needs it: your own, children you know, or children in places of hunger, war or lack of love. Then you rest in silence for five breaths while the love does its work.
How does it end, and why the hands in prayer?
The fountain returns to a spiral, then a circle, and you thank your neighbours. You take three breaths between earth and source through the heart, then rest in stillness. With hands in prayer you give thanks, rub your hands and toes, and release one judgment about your body.
