Welcome beautiful souls,
Thank you for joining me today.
My name is Nancy.
Today I will guide you in affirmations to help you heal from disappointments.
In our human experience we all deal with disappointments at different times of our lives.
We may be disappointed with people or with the outcome of a situation.
We may be disappointed of a relationship or a friendship or we may feel a lingering disappointment of how certain parts of our life just didn't turn out like we expected.
Disappointment my dear comes when you were brave enough to hope for something and then experience an outcome that is different from what you had hoped for.
As we start this meditation I invite you to think of one thing you feel disappointed about.
Say out loud or in your mind I am disappointed that and fill in the blank.
Very good.
Now before we start our affirmations I invite you to notice your body.
Is there a part of your body that feels tense,
A part where you maybe can feel the disappointment.
Notice it,
What feels tense,
What feels dense.
Now through your nose,
Take a deep breath in and breathe into that space,
Release.
Now slowly gently release your breath through your mouth,
Nice,
One more time.
Take a deep breath in and let it all go through your mouth and one last time before we start our affirmations,
Breathe into that tender spot in your body,
Deeply hold it and release it all,
Nice,
Very good.
Now let's begin our affirmations,
You may repeat after me out loud or in your mind.
I acknowledge that I feel disappointed.
I had hoped for a different outcome and I was brave for hoping.
I was brave for trusting.
It is normal that I feel pain and confusion about this now.
It is okay that I feel anger and fear right now.
It is normal for me to feel shock.
I allow myself to feel just as I allow myself to heal.

Of how far I have come.

One disappointment does not mean disappointments will continue.
I decide not to abandon trust in life.
I believe in brighter days to come.

Take another deep breath into your belly and release the air through your mouth.
One more time.
Take another deep breath into your belly,
Hold it and release the air through your mouth.
In closing,
Notice how you feel.
Do you feel more at peace,
Maybe lighter,
More at ease?
Notice that the space within you has increased to trust as you are healing from disappointment.
Now in closing,
I invite you to think of a safe person in your life you may be able to share your disappointment with so that you don't keep it all bottled up inside.
You could also journal your thoughts to find some relief or send out a prayer.
Lastly,
I would like to invite you to use the next few days just to care for yourself and engage in some self-care practices that you feel nourished by.
It could be a walk in nature or an art project or a warm bath.
Give yourself tenderness and grace,
Accepting the disappointment and knowing it is an opportunity for you to move forward.
You can also come back to this meditation anytime you feel overwhelmed by the disappointment to feel some relief and hope.
Thank you for seeking that place of stillness and reflection with me today.
The more you practice being still,
The greater the impact on your life and inner peace.
I hope and pray your day is filled with reminders of how deeply loved you are.
I hope and pray that your day is filled with reminders that good things are just waiting to come your way.
I'm sending you love and peace always,
My dear.
And remember,
All will be well and the manner of all things will be well.
