I like to do a very basic chakra meditation where I rest my hands
over the chakra and visualize the area being infused with colored
light. The color corresponds to the chakra. So it goes something like
this:
Root chakra: Hands on thighs, visualizing red light
Sacral chakra: Hands on lower belly, orange light
Solar Plexus chakra: Hands on abdomen above navel, yellow light
Heart chakra: Hands on chest, green light
Throat chakra: Hands gently over throat, blue light
Third Eye chakra: Hands gently cover eyes and forehead, indigo light
Crown chakra: Hands on top of head, white or violet light
If I'm feeling REALLY out of balance, I'll choose seven crystals or gemstones
that correspond to each chakra to use during the meditation. So for the
Heart chakra, for example, I might choose a rose quartz to rest on my chest,
then place my hands over it and do the meditation.
Very simplistic, but I've found it to be extremely helpful.
