Rain tends to bring negativity, filling the sky’s with grey clouds, we feel cold, wet, and miserable. Have you considered the positivity? Rain also brings life, music, and a fresh start.
Water symbolises refection and purity. Rain meditation is the perfect way to connect with the body as we are made up of at least 50% water. This meditation uses the beauty of water to help clear the mind, refresh and cleanse the body. Raindrop meditation will leave you feeling calm and peaceful. Ideally this meditation is done whilst it is raining.
Start by sitting somewhere comfortable and warm, where you can hear and watch the raindrops falling. Allow your breath to flow naturally. Close your eyes and listen to the rain. The sound of the raindrops falling, helps you to relax and brings you a calming energy. When you feel ready, open your eyes, and begin to watch the rain. How fast is the rain falling? Is the rain heavy or light? Watch the rain bounce off the ground. Watch the rain fall on leaves, plants and soil and then notice the water sinks, is absorbed, into the earth.
When you feel ready, close your eyes again. Feel free to lay down if this is more comfortable. Take some deeper inhalations and exhalations. Can you smell the rain? Let go and relax. Let your breath flow naturally again and visualise the rain falling on your skin. The raindrops feel cool and refreshing. As the raindrops fall, they wash away anything that no longer serves you, they wash away negativity and wash away anything your holding onto and no longer need. The raindrops sink into your skin cleansing your body. They bring light, love, and positivity from the universe. Leaving your body feeling cleansed and refreshed.
