Welcome,
Beautiful soul.
Thank you for choosing yourself today.
My name is Annemarie Verveers.
Thank you for choosing to spend this sacred moment with me.
The meditation has been created to guide you into a space of calm.
Connection and gentle transformation.
Today's meditation is focused on boundaries without guilt.
This is a series of meditations.
Day one today is welcome home.
In this moment there is nowhere else you need to be.
And nothing you need to become.
Take a slow,
Gentle breath in.
And softly breathe out.
Allow your shoulders to drop and lift your jaw.
Relax.
Feel the weight of your body being lovingly supported beneath you.
For the next little while,
There is absolutely nothing to fix.
Nothing to achieve,
Nothing to prove,
Just this moment.
Just you.
I wonder when you last truly asked yourself.
How am I?
Not the automatic answer we give everyone else.
Not I'm fine.
Not I'm okay but the real answer because if you're here today,
Perhaps a part of you has grown tired.
Tired of always being the strong one.
Tired of saying yes,
When your heart whispers no.
Tired of carrying everyone else's emotions Tired of wondering why,
After giving so much of yourself away.
You still feel empty.
If this is where you find yourself today,
I want you to know something.
There is nothing wrong with you.
You didn't become this way because you were weak.
You became this way because somewhere along life's journey.
You learned that being needed.
Felt safer than being yourself.
You learn that keeping the peace was a lot easier than speaking your truth.
That pleasing others literally protected you.
And that's saying yes.
Earned love.
Those beliefs may once have served you,
But today they no longer need to.
Imagine now that you are standing in front of a beautiful little cottage.
Feel so warm and peaceful.
There is a gentle garden.
Growing around it.
Flowers sway in the breeze.
Birds sing softly nearby.
This place feels strangely familiar.
As though your soul has been here before.
Walk towards the front door.
As you reach out your hand.
The door opens effortlessly.
Inside,
Everything feels calm.
There is no judgment here no expectations,
No pressure only love As you step inside the cottage,
You realize something.
This cottage is you.
This is your heart.
This is your inner home.
And perhaps.
.
.
Without even realizing it.
You've been away for a very long time.
Maybe you've been visiting everyone else's homes.
Everyone else's worries.
And everyone else's needs.
Everyone else's expectations.
And two,
One day.
You forgot the way back to your own.
Today you've come home.
Walk slowly through this beautiful space.
Notice what it feels like.
Notice what your heart wants to show you.
Perhaps there is a comfortable chair.
Waiting just for you.
Sit down.
Rest.
Feel your breathing becoming slower.
Twinkler.
Easier.
Now imagine that your heart sits beside you.
Notice an organ but as a wise,
Loving friend.
It reaches out.
And very gently takes your hand.
And it says,
I've missed you.
Allow yourself to hear those words.
I've missed you.
Not because you failed not because you've done anything wrong.
But.
.
.
Because you've spent so much of your life looking after.
Everyone else.
That you've actually forgotten how to look after yourself.
Today is not about changing your life.
Today is simply about remembering who you are.
You are not here to earn your worth.
You already have it.
You are not here to prove your goodness.
You already are enough.
And little by little.
Breath by breath.
Choice by choice,
You are coming back home.
Take one slow deep breath and silently repeat after me.
I am allowed to choose myself.
My needs matter.
My peace matters.
I am worthy of kindness.
Especially from myself.
I am coming home.
Allow those words to settle gently into every part of your being.
No four Most try picking.
.
.
Simply allowing.
Knowing that today is the beginning of something beautiful not because you are becoming someone new.
Because you.
Are remembering.
Person you have always been beneath the expectations.
Thank you.
And the endless giving.
Take another slow breath.
Feel your body Feel the chair beneath you.
Feel the room around you.
And when you are ready.
Begin bringing gentle movement.
Back into your fingers.
Your turn.
Perhaps stretching softly.
And whenever it feels right.
Gently open your eyes.
As you move through your day.
May you remember this.
Every time you choose yourself with kindness.
Every time you honor your own heart.
Every time you listen to that quiet in the void.
You are teaching the world how to honor you too.
Until we meet again.
Be gentle with yourself.
You're finally finding your way home.
Before you return to your day.
I invite you to spend just a few moments with your journal.
Today's reflection.
Where in my life?
Have I been saying this?
When my heart has been quietly asking for no.
Thank you for sharing.
This peaceful space with me.
I honor your time,
Your presence.
And your willingness to show up for yourself.
Until we meet again,
Stay grounded.
Stay open and stay kind to your soul.
