You may light a candle if you wish, sometimes it helps to set the mood and bring tranquility. 

Make sure you have loose fitting clothing if just starting to do this form of protection. 

Sit comfortably feet flat on the floor, spine straight, hands in lap or on your legs.

Take 3-5 deep breaths breathing in the Universal Flow of Energy that is in and around all in existence. 

Inhale through the nose and think Love, exhale through the nose and think Peace. 

In your mind's eye (Third Eye) see a large shaft of Pure White Light come down from above you and into the top of your head (Crown chakra)

 Bring this Light into your spine...notice how this feels as this energy is Unconditional Love, Peace and Harmony

Tell the Chakras to open, guide the Light to fill your Chakras completely

sit for a moment and feel all the engery & love encompassing your body.

Tell the Light to spin each Chakra into perfect balance and harmony and realign your Chakras into perfect heal according to your divine blue print. 

Tell your Chakras to send this Pure Light to all the different areas and parts of the body they are over see

sit, relax and feel this as the Light being sent out through your body, now ask the Light to completely fill your body with its Light. 

You will feel this Love as it permeates through you, through every cell, molecule and atom of your being.

Its a warm, gentle, beautiful and peaceful experience.  Re energizing your entire being.

 Now tell the Light to go out your tailbone, down deep into Mother Earth....connect with the earth and tell Her that you love Her, send your love to Her.

Wait a few seconds as the love will be returned to you. You will feel your heart to swell with love.

Ask that she share in this energy with you and Thank Her for all that she has given you.

Ask that Mother Earth to ground you.

Bring the energy back up through your tailbone up through your spine and out the top of your head in a beautiful Rainbow Fountain of colors cascading down all around you. 

You are now protected by the Universal Flow of Energy and Grounded by Mother Earth. 

You are ready to meditate or work. 

After you have done this a few times, you will find that it comes automatic and and the feelings and emanations are always there through the energies. 

You will also find that it helps you in many ways throughout the day.
