Thank you for joining me today.
As we move through this meditation.
Learning to fall in love with yourself.
And find yourself comfortably seated or lying down.
Take a slow,
Gentle breath in.
And as you exhale out.
Allow your shoulders to soften.
Let's continue to breathe in deeply.
And slowly.
As you exhale out.
Allow your breath to carry away any tension.
You no longer need to hold.
Soften the shoulders down.
And allow your eyes to close.
Allow yourself to fully immerse.
Arrive in this moment.
Today's meditation is not about becoming someone different.
Today is about remembering who you have always been.
For much of our lives,
Many of us were taught to compare ourselves to others.
We learn to search out flies.
To believe that everyone else is need.
Should come before our own.
Over time,
We learn to measure our worth.
By impossible standards.
But today.
.
.
In this meditation.
We choose something different.
Today we are learning to fall in love with ourselves.
Falling in love.
Not because we are perfect.
But because we are wonderfully human.
Because we're growing.
Because just as you are.
You are enough.
Bring your awareness back to the breath.
And take a slow breath in.
And release that breath out.
Bring your awareness to the center of your chest.
Your heart's space.
Imagine your heart gently glowing.
With a warm,
Comforting light.
Perhaps this light is golden or soft pink.
Or it simply feels warm.
Familiar.
There's no right or wrong.
We simply notice whatever comes naturally.
This light has always been here.
It has patiently waited beneath the expectations.
Beneath the comparisons.
Self-criticism.
Waiting for your attention.
As you breathe into your heart.
Begin to recognize something beautiful.
There has never been.
Another person exactly like you.
And never will be.
You carry your own unique story.
Your own gifts.
Your special wisdom.
Your laughter.
A compassion that only you can display.
Your own way of making others feel seen.
And love.
The world does not need another version of someone else.
It needs you.
Exactly as you are.
Your uniqueness.
Is not an accident.
You are here.
In this moment.
Because your presence matters.
Your kindness matters.
Your ideas matter.
Your courage.
The way you love others.
The way you problem solve.
The way you comfort.
The way you create.
These are the gifts that only you can offer.
And those gifts.
Become even brighter.
When you first offer love to yourself.
Place your hands onto that big beautiful heart of yours.
Feel the warmth of your hand.
Feel your breath moving beneath it.
Feel your heart beating.
And quietly.
Share these words.
I love you.
I love you.
Allow yourself to receive those words.
Not to simply hear them.
But to receive them.
Imagine every cell in your body hearing them.
Imagine your heart softening and opening.
Just a little more.
Let's share these words again.
I love you.
Feel these words settling into every part of you that has been longing to hear them.
Allow them to soften old beliefs.
Allow them to heal old wounds.
Allow them to become your new truth.
One more time.
We share these words with kindness.
With sincerity.
With your entire heart.
I love you.
And rest quietly in this feeling.
Noticing how it feels to become your own safe place.
Come home to your heart.
To be your greatest supporter.
Your own closest friend.
Rest here for a moment.
This relationship you have with yourself.
Becomes the foundation for every other relationship in your life.
The more deeply you love yourself.
The more freely you can love others.
The more fully you can share your gifts.
The more brightly you can shine.
Keep your awareness on that heart space.
Feel your heart softening.
As we continue to share these words.
Love you.
I love you.
And carry these simple truths with you.
That you are worthy.
Of this lab.
That you are enough.
And that you're uniqueness.
Is needed in this world.
Day.
We choose to fall.
A little more deeply in love with ourselves.
I love you.
