Welcome.
If you are hearing my voice,
It is because a tender part of you is longing for rest and for recognition.
This moment is a soft invitation to look into your own heart,
Your own sacred mirror with nothing but kindness.
Please find a place where your body can be completely still and where your spirit can rest and feel safe.
In a world that constantly whispers that you must change,
This meditation is a sacred return to the self you already are.
It is a journey to embrace every single part of you.
The light,
The shadow,
The quiet,
And the loud has already perfect and whole.
As we begin,
I invite you to set down any judgment you might be carrying.
Simply allow yourself this time to connect with the quiet,
Unwavering beauty that is the very fabric of your being.
Now take one deep,
Intentional breath,
And as you exhale,
We begin this quiet journey home.
Gently close your eyes and bring your awareness to the kind,
Steady rhythm of your breath.
It is the only task we have right now.
Breathe in slowly through your nose for a count of four,
Feeling the cool air gently fill your chest.
One,
Two,
Three,
Four.
And exhale softly through your mouth for a count of six,
Releasing all the day's earthly energy intention.
One,
Two,
Three,
Four,
Five,
Six.
Let's continue this quiet rhythm,
This sacred act of presence as the world outside softly dissolves into quiet.
Breathing in,
Finding the stillness,
Two,
Three,
Four.
And breathing out,
Finding the release,
Two,
Three,
Four,
Five,
Six.
Now turn your awareness inward to the inner core of your heart.
Imagine this chamber holds a brilliant silver spark.
It dances like the pure,
Clear reflection of the moon on a dark,
Still lake.
This spark is the energy of self-acceptance.
This spark is your sacred mirror.
It doesn't ask you to fix anything.
It simply reflects the unvarnished truth of who you are right now.
Feel its gentle light begin to spread.
A soft,
Compassionate wave radiating through your entire being.
In this light,
You are completely loved,
Completely perfect,
Completely whole.
With each breath you take,
This silver spark intensifies.
It whispers that your past,
Your body,
Your every story are all luminous threads in the magnificent tapestry of your existence.
In the eyes of this mirror,
You are a masterpiece and every part of you is worthy of celebration.
Let this radiant silver energy flow down from your heart and into your body.
As you inhale,
Feel the spiral of acceptance moving down your legs,
Filling your thighs,
Your calves,
And your feet with a sense of quiet grounding and stability.
As you exhale,
Feel the last bit of tension melt away as the energy holds you completely.
Now let the acceptance flow up from your heart,
Through your shoulders,
And down your arms to your fingertips.
Gently unclench your hands and feel the energy soothing every muscle,
Reminding every cell,
I am enough.
Let the light flow up into your neck,
Into your jaw,
And into the space between your eyebrows,
Gently releasing all tension from your face.
You are now a vessel of perfect alignment,
Feeling a quiet strength and a deep presence.
Let's journey now to the quiet landscape of your inner world.
Bring to mind a moment when someone offered you a kind word or a genuine compliment.
As you remember it,
Ask your deepest heart,
Did I truly allow that light in or did I dim the beauty others saw in me?
Breathe into that feeling,
Observing it without judgment.
The sacred mirror is here to help you see yourself through the eyes of pure love.
With the warmth of self-acceptance holding you,
Bring to mind a moment when you felt criticized or when you struggled to meet your own expectations.
See this moment as a neutral offering,
A mere whisper in the vastness of your life.
Ask your heart,
Can I learn from this experience without letting it shrink my inner light?
In this quiet moment,
The answer will arise from your deepest knowing,
Revealing a path that honors both your growth and your beautiful self-worth.
Trust that even when a goal is unmet,
You have given your best effort and that is all that is required.
With a final deep breath,
Allow the inner spark of self-acceptance to anchor itself within you.
It is not a goal to reach,
It is simply who you are.
The mirror in your heart reflects your ultimate truth,
You are whole,
You are worthy and your light is a gift.
As you begin to bring your awareness back to the room,
Notice the support beneath you.
Gently wiggle your fingers and toes.
With a soft inhale,
Allow this sense of unconditional love to settle deeply within your soul.
Carry this sacred truth with you.
May you always return to the quiet,
Simple mirror of your heart and may your life be blessed with the profound grace of knowing,
I am enough,
I am loved and I am whole.
