If you are already opening and empowering your chakras as well as using the easy chakra spin there is no need to do this mediation at all, this meditation is only for those who feel they want to try it on top of what they are already doing but I will not exclude it just because I feel it is not really needed, it can still help in some ways and get you used to lengthy meditations.

The following meditation has been taken Directly from the JOS Ministries page and as I feel it is an un needed meditation I have left it unchanged apart from a few spelling corrections, I repeat this meditation although useful is not needed if you are already awakening the chakras, empowering them and using the easy chakra spin, but it can be used on top of that if you feel you want to.

 

This meditation is excellent for rapid spiritual progress. The meditation can last anywhere from 15 minutes to over an hour or more depending on how much time you decide to spend in practice. The number of repetitions are given as a guideline only. The repetitions are flexible, but you should make sure each of your chakras receives a balanced focus. Work each chakra one by one as given in the instructions below. You can either begin with the bottom (base) or the top. Any chakras you feel need extra attention you should devote more time to. It is important to relax and be settled, if possible, before beginning this meditation. This is the full standard chakra meditation and can be a part of your daily meditation program.
