Inner Sun Exercise
      This can be used for anything from healing to courage and empowerment to vitality. It is a wonderful exercise to use when you are working on BEING the change you wish to see in the world or creating a preferred life experience.
     If possible, begin outside or in front of a window, with your eyes closed toward the sun. Feel the sun’s warmth and see the light through your eyelids. Visualize this light and warmth filling your body. See it fill every cell to overflowing and spread out into the world around you.
Now see a smaller sun in your center. See it expand and glow more brightly as the Sun energy merges with your personal energy. The light balances your body, mind, and spirit.
See and feel this glowing sun expand and shine more brightly. It surrounds you in a protective sphere of light.
      This inner sun will guide and protect you as long as you choose to work with it. Check it periodically for insight. If you are living a healthy life and walking the path you are meant to walk, your inner sun will glow brightly. If you are out of balance or working from ego alone, it will dim and waver.
      Similarly, your inner sun will be strong if you are being offered honesty from others. Lies and deception will cause your inner sun to fade.

Blessings of the fertile earth to you
Blessings of the wind and rain
Blessings of the deep blue oceans to you
Blessings of the trees of the grove
Blessings of the standing stones to you
Blessings of these and more
To you and yours forever
