This little routine is one of the most essential skills you can have in your spiritual tool chest. It protects against psychic noise, psychic attack, telepathy, dark entities, and otherwise unwanted energies. It can re-balance you, increase your discernment, and keep your aura clean. It's a great way to start a meditation or any spiritual light work. Consider it basic hygiene for your soul.

Ground:
Start by sitting comfortably in a chair. Make sure your spine is straight and your feet planted firmly on the floor. Say in your mind, the word, "ground."

Begin to visualize your feet growing roots like a tree, through the ground, all the way down to the center of the earth. See these roots anchor themselves there, in the earth's core. Feel the depth of this connection stabilizing you. Allow any negative energy to drain down through these roots and be burned up.

Center:
Take a moment to observe where you are in the here and now. Notice how you feel. Don't judge it. Just notice it. Say in your mind the word, "center."

See these roots pulling white light from the center of the earth, up into your heart. Pull all your awareness into your heart, as this light forms into a growing, glowing ball. Imagine YOU are inside the center of this ball, and you are one with it.

Shield:
See this ball of light expanding, flowing throughout your body like water, until it has filled you completely. Say in your mind the word, "shield."

Then, direct that light out from your body, through your skin. Spin this light around your body in a clockwise motion, forming a bubble of earth-powered protection. You can play with your shield, trying out different shapes and sizes. You can form it into an egg of light, make it transparent, or put mirrors on it! I recommend making it porous like a web or a screen if you will be interacting with other people.

When you feel like your shield is in place, say in your mind, "Only love can pass through this shield."

If you do this simple meditation at the start of each morning, for 30 days, you will be sure to see positive changes in your life. Soon, it will be as easy as saying, "Ground, center, shield."
