Prayer For Love - Without Losing Yourself

A somatic prayer to call in love that holds, honors, and does not erase you. In this deeply soothing prayer of Exiled & Rising, Ana Mael offers a somatic prayer for those seeking love that does not cost them their truth, their boundaries, or their body.

This is not a prayer of performance. It is a prayer of presence—an invitation to receive love that meets the listener as they are, not as they’ve been taught to perform.

Through her uniquely somatic cadence, Ana guides the listener back to the wisdom of the breath, the stillness of the nervous system, and the truth of the soul that remembers.

Why Somatic Prayer Matters?

Unlike scripted affirmations or cognitive self-help tools, Ana’s somatic prayers are crafted with a trauma-informed, body-rooted approach that: Unlike scripted affirmations or cognitive self-help tools, Ana’s somatic prayers are crafted with a trauma-informed, body-rooted approach that helps regulate the nervous system and reduce internalized relational anxiety

Prayer for love.

Divine spirit.

Angels of light.

Beloved ancestors.

Gracious God.

I come to you with an open heart and a body that remembers both tenderness and betrayal.

I ask not for perfect love,

But for love that is true.

May I feel love that does not shrink me.

May I be loved in the places I thought I had to hide.

May love find me as I am,

Not as I perform.

Let me know love as something I receive,

Not just something I work hard to earn.

Divine spirit.

Angels of light.

Beloved ancestors.

Gracious God.

May I feel love that holds me when I'm not at my best.

Love that does not vanish when I set a boundary.

Love that stays without needing me to stay small.

Divine spirit.

Angels of light.

Beloved ancestors.

Gracious God.

May I love without losing myself.

May I love without trying to fix others or disappear from others.

May I be loved in my softness,

In my voice,

In my truth.

Let love be the medicine that feeds me,

Not numbs me.

Let it be rooted,

Not rushed.

Let it make me feel more human,

Not more exhausted.

And when I forget,

When I reach for love in places that cannot hold me,

Bring me back to this prayer.

Divine spirit.

May I remember that love begins inside me.

In the way I rest.

In the way I speak gently to my fears.

In the way I honor my identity and my culture.

In the way I love myself to be held.

Gracious God.

Let this be love.

Not a performance.

Not a pretense.

But a sanctuary of presence and inner peace.

And so it is.

And so may it be.

Just take a moment and let your body fully absorb this prayer.

All the way.

All the way.

Into the back of your spine.

All the way up.

Into your back body.

And all the way down your feet.

And allow your heart just to move,

Just to move back.

All the way.

Through your skin.

Your muscles.

Your fascia.

Your bones.

Into yourselves.

Until next time,

Be gentle with yourself.
