Welcome,

I invite you to find a quiet space where you can lie down comfortably,

Undisturbed.

Allow yourself to settle into a peaceful position with your body fully supported by the ground beneath you.

For this practice,

Know that you are safe.

Close your eyes and begin to take a deep breath in.

And as you slowly breathe out,

Let go of any tension in your body.

Allow your breath to become smooth,

Even and effortless.

Feel the rhythm of your breath as it naturally flows in and out.

Now gently set an intention,

A simple affirmation,

To guide you through this practice.

This intention is something that speaks to your heart,

A statement that will nurture your inner strength and confidence.

It could be something like,

I am worthy,

Or I trust in myself.

Repeat this intention silently in your mind with deep faith.

Let it resonate within you.

Let's prepare to skin your body.

Begin by bringing your awareness to your body.

Slowly,

With full attention,

Bring awareness to your right hand.

Feel the fingertips,

The palm,

The back of your hand.

Sense any warmth or tingling.

Relax your hand fully,

Letting go of any tightness.

Now bring your awareness to your right wrist.

Feel the sensation there and release all tension.

Move your awareness up to your elbow,

Your upper arm,

And your shoulder.

Let go completely,

Allowing the weight of your arm to sink into the ground.

Shift your awareness now to your left hand.

Feel the fingers,

The palm,

And the back of the hand.

Let it soften and relax.

Move up to the left wrist,

The elbow,

The shoulder.

Release the muscles completely.

Now bring your attention to both of your arms as a whole.

Feel them heavy,

Grounded,

And relaxed.

Shift your awareness to your legs now.

Begin with the right leg.

Focus on the toes,

The arch,

The knee,

And the thigh.

As you breathe,

Release any tension in each area.

Let your leg feel like it is melting into the earth beneath you.

Guide your awareness to the left leg.

Focusing on the left toes,

The arch of your foot,

The ankle,

The calf,

The knee,

The thigh.

Slowly let your leg soften and relax completely.

Now feel both of your legs together.

They are strong,

Yet soft.

Rooted deeply into the earth.

Allow them to rest in this stillness.

Transition your awareness to your back now.

Feel the support of the earth beneath you.

Release the tension in your lower back,

Your middle back,

And upper back.

Allowing each vertebra to relax,

Each muscle melting.

Focus now on your neck and shoulders.

Release any tightness there.

Let your neck feel long,

Your shoulders open and free.

Now soften your face.

Relax your jaw.

Remove your tongue from the roof of your mouth.

Soften your cheeks.

Widen your forehead.

Let the muscles of your face soften,

Releasing any unnecessary tension.

Inhale,

And as you exhale,

Feel your entire body relaxed,

Calm,

Heavy,

And at ease.

Now bring your awareness to your breath.

Notice the rise and fall of your abdomen with each inhale and exhale.

Feel the coolness of the air as you inhale,

And the warmth as you exhale.

With each breath,

You become more grounded in the present moment,

More relaxed.

Now imagine your breath as a wave,

Gently flowing in and out.

Carrying away any remnants of doubt or fear.

Let each breath strengthen your connection to self,

To your core,

To your own infinite power.

Together,

Let's move deeper into an expansive and empowering visualization to awaken your inner confidence.

Imagine yourself standing at the edge of a vast and ancient forest.

The trees around you are towering giants,

Strong,

Rooted deep into the earth and reaching for the sky.

The air is fresh,

Filled with the scent of pine and earth,

And a gentle breeze rustles the leaves above you.

You stand tall in the midst of this peaceful yet powerful place.

Feel your feet connecting firmly to the ground,

Perhaps embedded in clay or tickled by grass.

Like the roots of these trees,

Allow yourself to be steady and secure.

As you take a breath,

Imagine you are absorbing the energy of these trees,

Grounded and unshakable.

With each breath,

You feel more stable,

More sure of yourself,

And stronger in your own skin.

Now visualize a radiant light within your chest,

Just above your heart.

This light is warm,

Golden,

And brilliant.

At first,

It is just a small spark.

But with each breath,

It grows brighter,

Stronger,

And larger.

This light is the core of your self-confidence.

As it expands,

It fills your entire body with a glowing,

Radiant warmth.

Feel this golden light move down into your arms,

Filling your hands with power and strength.

It travels down into your legs,

Anchoring you even deeper into the earth.

It expands into your heart and mind,

Opening you to new levels of inner strength and belief in yourself.

Picture this golden light now extending beyond your body,

Forming a brilliant aura around you.

This glowing sphere of light is your personal energy field.

It shields you,

Protects you,

And radiates confidence.

It is a reflection of your self-worth,

And nothing or no one can diminish it.

You are untouchable within this glowing sphere.

Feel how light this feels,

Full of peace,

Radiance,

And unshakable belief in your own worth.

It holds the essence of your strength,

Power,

And confidence.

This is the energy you carry with you wherever you go.

Now,

In the distance,

Visualize a magnificent mountain.

It rises high into the sky,

Its peak covered in snow,

Its base deep in the earth.

You begin to walk toward this mountain.

As you approach,

Feel the energy of this great mountain fill you with awe and admiration.

The mountain has stood for thousands of years,

Weathering storms,

Standing tall and unwavering against the forces of nature.

Feel the strength of the mountain seep into your being.

You are connected to its power.

As you stand at its base,

Feel the mountain's solid foundation supporting you.

Like the mountain,

You are grounded,

Stable,

And unshakable.

Nothing can move you from your center.

Now visualize yourself at the peak of the mountain,

Standing tall and confident.

You have climbed to the highest point,

And as you stand on the peak,

You look out at the vast landscape below.

The view is breathtaking.

Rolling hills,

Sparkling rivers,

And a sky so clear you can see all the way to the horizon.

You are on top of the world,

Feeling unstoppable.

You have risen to this point through your own inner strength,

Determination,

And confidence.

You are no longer limited by self-doubt or fear.

You stand tall,

Fully aligned with your highest self.

Next,

Imagine a powerful waterfall cascading down the side of the mountain.

Feel the mist of the water on your skin as the water falls freely,

Effortlessly.

Each drop of water symbolizes the flow of confidence in your life.

See the waterfall as it tumbles down,

Powerful and graceful.

You too,

Like this water,

Move through life with ease and confidence.

You are unafraid to express yourself,

To take bold actions,

And to live authentically.

Picture yourself now walking along the edge of a sparkling lake.

The water is crystal clear,

Reflecting the sky above like a perfect mirror.

As you look into the water,

You see your reflection,

Strong,

Confident,

Radiant.

You see yourself exactly as you are,

And in this reflection,

There is no self-doubt.

There is only a deep knowing that you are enough,

Exactly as you are.

Notice the stillness of the water,

The perfect reflection of your true self.

As the water is clear and calm,

So too is your mind.

You are calm,

Poised,

And full of unwavering confidence.

Next,

Visualize a bright,

Full moon rising in the sky above you.

The moon is bathed in a soft silver glow.

It represents your inner wisdom,

Your intuition,

And your ability to trust in yourself.

As the moon rises,

You feel a deep connection to it,

Knowing that just like the moon,

Your confidence rises steadily and naturally.

Feel the light of the moon fill you,

Soothing any remaining doubts,

And filling you with clarity and self-assurance.

This is the light of your inner wisdom,

Guiding you to trust in your path,

Your abilities,

And your worth.

Imagine yourself surrounded by a field of flowers.

Each flower speckled with dew represents an aspect of your unique brilliance,

Your creativity,

Your intelligence,

Your kindness,

And your strength.

As you walk through the field,

You see these flowers blossoming in response to your presence.

They welcome you.

They open,

Vibrant,

And beautiful,

Just as you are.

You are like these flowers,

Constantly growing,

Evolving,

And blossoming into the fullest expression of yourself.

Now as you rest in this powerful visualization,

Silently repeat these affirmations in your mind,

Allowing them to seep deep into your consciousness.

I am worthy of love and success.

I trust in my abilities to create the life I desire.

I radiate confidence in every action I take.

My worth is not defined by others,

But by my own deep connection to myself.

I embrace my power and step forward with strength.

I believe in myself and my potential.

Let each affirmation settle deeply into your being.

Feel their truth as they reverberate through your entire body,

Heart,

And mind.

Let them become a part of who you are,

So deeply rooted that nothing can shake them.

Now let's deepen this sense of confidence.

Visualize the golden light from your heart expanding even further.

Imagine that with each breath it is growing in size and intensity,

Becoming brighter,

Warmer,

And more brilliant.

This light is no longer confined to just your body.

It extends outward,

Reaching all parts of your life,

Your relationships,

Your work,

Your creativity,

And every action you take.

The light of confidence fills everything around you,

Creating a world in which you are fully capable and empowered.

You can feel this light expanding beyond your aura now,

Growing into a sphere of strength.

Further it stretches and it reaches out into the universe,

Like the warmth of the sun spreading through the sky.

Nothing can diminish this light,

For it is a reflection of your own infinite potential.

You are the creator of your own light,

And with each breath it grows brighter,

Stronger,

And more radiant.

Know that this energy is always with you.

It does not depend on external circumstances or validation.

You are the source of your own strength.

The more you embrace this confidence,

The more it deepens,

And the more it will resonate in every action you take.

Feel the power of this self-confidence surging through you,

Like a steady current of energy running through your veins.

With each inhale,

It fills you even more,

Reaching places in your body and mind that you may not have noticed before.

Feel your chest opening,

Your spine lengthening,

Your head held high,

Fully grounded in your self-worth.

As you breathe deeply,

Acknowledge that this confidence is now a permanent part of you.

It is a well of strength that you can draw upon at any moment.

You are not just confident in this moment,

You are confident always,

In every aspect of your life.

Slowly begin to bring your awareness back to the room and into your body.

Notice the sensation of your body against the surface you are lying on.

Feel the air around you.

Notice the sounds that are present in your environment.

And as you begin to awaken your senses,

Take a moment to acknowledge the confidence that now resides within you.

Know that this confidence is always within reach,

Always available to you.

In this stillness,

Take a deep breath in,

And as you exhale,

Set the intention that you will carry this confidence with you.

Into every moment of your life.

Slowly,

When you feel ready,

Begin to wiggle your fingers and toes,

Give a gentle stretch overhead,

And slowly open your eyes.

As you come back to the present,

Know that you are full of confidence,

Strong in your own worth,

And ready to face whatever comes your way with grace and assurance.

I hope that this meditation has brought you peace,

Joy,

And confidence.

I thank you for trusting me to be your guide,

And I thank you for taking time for yourself.

It is my wish to guide you again in the future.

Until next time,

Namaste.
