Welcome,
My name is Sanasa Sainpour and this is my guided meditation for building confidence and nurturing self-love.
In this session,
We'll explore affirmations,
Visualization,
And inner child work to deepen your sense of self-worth and acceptance.
You'll leave this meditation feeling empowered,
Connected to yourself,
And full of love.
Let's begin.
Take a moment to settle into a comfortable position,
Either seated or lying down.
Gently,
Close your eyes if that feels good to you,
And allow yourself to let go of any distractions.
This is your time,
A time to nurture yourself,
To connect with your confidence,
And the love within you.
Place one hand gently on your heart and the other on your belly.
Take a deep breath in,
Feeling your belly rise as you inhale,
And slowly exhale,
Feeling it soften and release.
Let's do this together a few times.
Inhale deeply,
Filling your lungs with fresh energy,
And exhale slowly through pursed lips,
Releasing any tension or doubt.
Again.
Inhale deeply.
One more time.
Let's inhale deeply.
With each breath,
Allow yourself to settle into this moment of stillness,
This moment of care.
As you breathe,
Remind yourself,
You are a human being,
Not a human doing.
Your worth does not come from what you do,
But from who you are.
And you,
You are love,
You are kindness,
You are compassion.
Take a moment to let these words settle within you,
To feel their truth.
Your presence in this world matters.
Your being is enough.
Now,
Let's take a moment to guide your body into relaxation,
One breath at a time.
Begin by bringing your attention to your feet.
As you inhale,
Notice any tension there.
And with your exhale,
Gently release that tension,
Allowing your feet to soften completely.
Next,
Shift your focus to your legs.
Inhale deeply,
And as you exhale,
Feel the muscles in your legs relax,
Letting go of any tightness or discomfort.
Move your attention to your abdomen,
Breathe in,
Filling your belly with fresh energy.
And as you exhale,
Allow it to soften,
Releasing any tension or holding there.
Now,
Bring your awareness to your chest.
Take a deep inhale,
And as you exhale,
Feel your chest open,
Your breath flowing freely.
Focus now on your shoulders.
With your next inhale,
Notice any heaviness you may be carrying.
The weight of other people's judgment,
The weight of fear of failure,
Perhaps the weight of even your own judgment towards yourself.
And as you exhale,
Let your shoulders drop,
Releasing that weight completely.
Shift your attention to your neck and jaw.
Inhale deeply,
And as you exhale,
Allow these areas to loosen,
Softening with ease.
Finally,
Bring your awareness to the muscles around your eyes.
Breathe in gently,
And as you exhale,
Feel them relax,
Letting go of any tension.
With each breath,
Your body becomes lighter and more at ease,
Held in a sense of calm and self-acceptance.
There is nothing you need to do right now.
Simply breathe,
And be.
Now,
Imagine yourself standing in front of a mirror.
You see your reflection looking back at you,
But this is no ordinary reflection.
This is a version of you filled with unconditional self-love,
Confidence,
And kindness.
Warm,
Compassionate,
And understanding.
This reflection knows your worth.
Take a moment to connect with this reflection.
Now,
Repeat these affirmations after me,
Either silently or out loud.
I am worthy of love and respect.
I trust myself and my path.
I am proud of who I am.
Feel the power of these words as they flow through you.
Turn to the mirror.
Behind this confident reflection,
You see someone else.
You see your inner child.
A younger version of you filled with innocence and curiosity.
Notice how they smile at you with trust and love.
Imagine kneeling down to their level,
Holding their hands and saying,
Let them know that they are safe,
Beloved,
And that you will always care for them.
Take a moment to smile at your inner child,
To thank them for being a part of you.
Feel the connection between you,
Your inner child,
And your present self.
Recognize that your worth is not tied to your achievements or what you do.
It comes simply from who you are in you.
You are love.
You are kindness.
You are compassion.
Your presence in this world has value.
Just as you honor the needs of your inner child,
Honor your own needs right now in this moment.
Know that you deserve care,
Attention,
And love.
Now,
Imagine yourself in a place where you feel truly at ease,
A space that feels safe and nurturing.
Maybe it's a sunny meadow,
A cozy room,
Or a quiet forest.
Engage your senses here,
All your senses.
Feel the warmth of the sunlight or the softness of the ground beneath you.
Hear the soothing sounds around you,
Birds chirping,
Sinking,
Leaves rustling,
Or waves crashing.
Let the safe,
Comforting space amplify the love and confidence you feel within.
This is a space you can always return to.
As we come to a close,
Take a deep breath in,
Feeling your belly rise.
And a slow,
Controlled exhale through pursed lips,
Releasing any remaining tension.
Let this feeling of self-love and confidence flow through your entire being.
Know that you are worthy,
You are enough,
And you are deeply loved.
When you're ready,
Begin to bring gentle movement back into your body.
Wiggle your fingers,
Stretch your toes,
Roll your shoulders.
And when it feels right,
Gently open your eyes.
Carry the sense of love and confidence with you,
Knowing you can return to it whenever you need.
Thank you for taking this time to connect with yourself.
Remember you are a human being,
Not a human doing.
Your worth is inherent.
You are love,
You are kindness,
And you are compassion.
