Welcome to this Virgo season guided meditation body scan, where we’ll focus on grounding our energy, connecting with our body, and nurturing the systems that Virgo rules: the digestive system, liver, and nervous system. I welcome you to find a comfortable position, either seated or lying down, and gently close your eyes. Take a deep breath in through your nose, and exhale slowly through your mouth. Let’s begin.
Start by bringing your attention to your breath. Notice the natural rise and fall of your abdomen with each inhale and exhale. Allow yourself to become fully present in this moment, letting go of any thoughts or concerns. Feel the ground beneath you, supporting you, and imagine roots extending from your body into the earth, grounding and stabilizing your energy.
Begin to slowly bring your awareness to the top of your head. Feel a sense of relaxation gently cascading down, softening your scalp, forehead, and face. Allow this relaxation to flow down your neck and into your shoulders, releasing any tension. As this calming energy continues to travel down your body, notice your chest and the steady rhythm of your breath. With each inhale, invite in clarity and peace. With each exhale, release any lingering tension.
Now, bring your awareness to your abdomen, the center of your digestive system. Virgo’s energy supports clarity and purification here. Imagine a warm, healing light in your stomach, radiating outward to your intestines and surrounding organs. This light soothes and strengthens your digestive system, helping it to process nourishment with ease and efficiency. As you breathe in, feel your abdomen expand gently. As you breathe out, imagine releasing any stress or heaviness that might be affecting your digestion.
Shift your focus slightly upward and to the right, where your liver resides. The liver is vital for detoxification and renewal. Visualize a gentle, emerald green light surrounding your liver, symbolizing growth, healing, and purification. With each breath, see this light growing brighter, cleansing your liver, and supporting its vital role in your health. Imagine this light washing away any toxins, both physical and emotional, leaving your liver revitalized and strong.
Next, bring your attention to your spine, the central highway of your nervous system. Picture a soft, golden light traveling from the base of your spine to the top of your head. This light represents the calming influence of Virgo, bringing balance and stability to your nervous system. As this light moves upward, it soothes your nerves, quiets your mind, and helps you release any stress or tension held in your body. Feel the golden light enveloping your entire nervous system, bringing a deep sense of peace and calm.
Now, take a moment to feel the connection between your digestive system, liver, and nervous system, all harmonized by the grounding energy of Virgo. Visualize these systems working together in perfect balance, supporting your overall well-being. Breathe deeply, knowing that you are nurturing your body in alignment with the rhythms of Virgo season.
As we prepare to close this meditation, take a final deep breath in, filling your body with calm, healing energy. Exhale slowly, releasing any remaining tension. Gently bring your awareness back to the room, feeling the ground beneath you and the air around you. When you’re ready, slowly open your eyes, carrying this sense of grounded, Virgo-inspired calm with you into your day.
Thank you for joining this meditation. May Virgo season bring you clarity, balance, and deep connection with your body’s wisdom.
