Cord of Life Healing Meditation - Spiritual Living 101

The "cord of life" is a healing meditation that I have used to deal with injuries and pain. Use universal energy to heal yourself with this visualization.

I recently injured my foot, and the pain was keeping me awake at night. This visualization came to me as I was laying there trying to deal with the pain. After using this meditation visualization a few times, my foot has been hurting less and healing quickly. I hope that it will aid you with your own healing.

Sit or lay down so that your body is relaxed and comfortable. I found that this visualization worked best for me if I did it in the dark, but you can try doing it with the lights on and your eyes closed, or you can try wearing a sleep mask. If possible, try this meditation at night in the dark while lying in bed.

Envision the night sky, and a spinning wheel of universal energy. You know, the kind of spinning wheel from the old days that people made yarn on. See the cord drawing in energy from the universe and spinning it into a glowing thread on a bobbin. Concentrate on this image for a while. Just relax and see the bobbin filling up with this cord of pure, glowing universal energy.

Now imagine an end of the cord drifting down from the bobbin and touching the injured or painful part of your body. See the healing energy of the universe flowing down the cord toward your body. When the cord touches your skin it may put off a sudden burst of light. That's just the universal energy combining with your own.

Stay relaxed. Imagine that the cord is wrapping around the affected area of your body, like a spider wrapping up a fly, or someone wrapping a mummy. The cord will spiral around the affected part and bring healing light into your body. For me, the wrapping started slowly and began to go faster and faster until it had wrapped my entire foot. I could feel a cool tingling as the cord covered my skin. The pain began to dissipate within seconds.

Once the affected area is completely wrapped, you can cut the cord. If you feel generally sick or have a disease that affects your whole body, you can continue to pull cord from the bobbin on the spinning wheel and wrap your whole body. Stay relaxed and let the energy from the cord flow into you. Cut the cord when you have enough. After the cord is cut, imagine the energy and the cord itself melting into your body, becoming one with you.

As the cord melds with your body you will feel cool, tingly, and the pain will subside. Imagine that the cord is healing you as it melts into your skin. After the cord has been absorbed just allow your mind to drift on thoughts of being healthy and without pain. You can repeat this meditation visualization any time you need pain relief or healing energy.
