Protect yourself with Reiki: guided meditation script
Step 1: Prepare and relax
Begin by finding a comfortable position, whether you’re seated, lying down, or even standing. Close your eyes, let your arms and legs rest naturally, and start to focus on your breath. Take slow, deep breaths in and out, releasing any tension from your body with each exhale.
Step 2: Repeat the Reiki mantra
To connect with Reiki energy, Ian introduces a simple yet powerful mantra: “I am now connected to Reiki energy for my greatest and highest good.”
Repeat this affirmation three times, either silently or aloud, and notice the sense of calm and connection that begins to settle in.
Step 3: Visualize Reiki energy flowing into your body
Now, visualize a warm, radiant light entering through the crown of your head. Imagine this light flowing gently down through your shoulders, arms, and torso, into your stomach, hips, and legs, before reaching your feet.
Take a moment to picture this light as a liquid, mist, or glow. Whether it feels warm, cool, or tingly, know that this Reiki energy is limitless and abundant, flowing freely for your greatest good.
Step 4: Fill your body and expand the energy outward
As the light continues to flow, sense it filling every part of your physical body. From your head to your toes, let this radiant energy bring healing and balance.
Next, visualize the Reiki energy expanding outward from your body. See it forming a protective field around you—above, below, and on all sides. This energy acts as a loving barrier, shielding you from negativity and outside influence.
Step 5: Strengthen your protection with an affirmation
To solidify your connection and protection, repeat this affirmation three times: “Reiki energy now protects me from negativity on all levels.”
Feel the strength and reassurance of this protective field. Rest in the knowledge that Reiki energy surrounds and safeguards you, allowing you to move through your day with confidence and peace.
Step 6: Complete your practice
Take a few more deep breaths, feeling grounded and calm. Wiggle your fingers and toes gently to reawaken your body. Open your eyes slowly when you’re ready, returning to the present moment with a sense of balance and security.
