Self-Love Meditation

A soothing guided meditation for self-love and inner healing rooted in Krishna consciousness. Through deep breathing, you’re guided to reconnect with your true identity as an eternal spirit soul (sat-chit-ananda), visualize Lord Krishna’s compassionate presence, and receive His unconditional love beyond appearance, achievement, or past mistakes.

The practice includes gentle affirmations, emotional acceptance, and a “self-partnering” vision—helping you release self-judgment, honor your needs, and return to daily life feeling supported, worthy, and spiritually grounded, with space to note down insights afterward.

Please relax yourself,

Sit or lie down in a comfortable chair or bed.

Relax your body,

Release the weight of your body on the chair or on the bed you are on.

Close your eyes,

Be comfortable and breath deeply.

Breath in deeply and breath out deeply.

Breath in deeply and breath out deeply.

And as you breath in,

You are breathing in relaxation and self-connection.

And as you breath out,

You are breathing out all your cares,

Worries and stress.

You are breathing out all your concerns and stress.

You are letting go.

Keep breathing in and keep breathing deeply out.

And as you breath out,

You visualize all your cares,

All your worries dissolving into the air.

Breath in to fill your stomach,

Breath out and compress your stomach.

And as you are breathing in and breathing out,

Deeply continue doing that for 5-10 times.

I want you to connect to your real self,

Your real you which is beyond the physical body and mind.

You are spiritual in nature who is deathless and eternal.

As a spirit soul,

I am only observing this body,

These thoughts,

Feelings and emotions as passing day and night.

And like the changing of season.

You are a spirit soul,

Part and parcel of the supreme lord.

You being spiritual in nature are more powerful than the sun,

Super energetic,

Super empowered.

You are eternal,

Full of knowledge and full of bliss.

Being a spirit soul,

You have these wonderful qualities of being.

Sat,

Chit and Ananda.

Invested in you by the lord Krishna himself.

And Krishna loves you unconditionally as his own loving part.

However insignificant you may be,

However unpopular you may be,

However unknown you may be,

However not beautiful you may define yourself by your own standards.

Not achieving,

Not accomplished,

You may define yourself by your own standards.

It just doesn't matter to Krishna.

Because Krishna loves you the way you are unconditionally.

And he will never judge you and reject you.

But will always accept you as his own and heal you with his loving embraces as his loving child.

And as you breathe in deeply and breathe out deeply,

I want you to visualize the form of lord Krishna you are attracted to.

Maybe deity you worship,

Shri Shri Radha Gopinath.

Any form of the lord we are attracted the most towards.

Visualize yourself connecting with Krishna's unconditional love for you.

And fully immersed and submerged in the lord's merciful and loving glances.

You are unconditionally lovable by Krishna the way you are.

With the figure you may have,

Your achievements or the non-achievement you may have.

The money,

The position,

The beauty,

The intelligence,

The education.

Whatever it may be,

It doesn't matter to Krishna.

Because Krishna loves you unconditionally.

You may have made many mistakes in the past.

You may be making mistakes now.

But in spite of that,

You are unconditionally lovable by the lord himself.

And I invite you to connect with the lord's unconditional love for you.

And as you do that,

I want you to connect with how you are feeling in your heart.

Being fully loved,

Fully accepted,

Fully forgiven for everything with no judgment.

This is how you are accepted by the lord.

And a part of our own journey in self-love is to learn how to see ourselves from Krishna's point of view.

Can you see yourself as an eternal being,

Fully empowered by the lord,

Completely loved by the lord's grace?

And if the lord is not judging you and accepting you fully the way you are,

Who are you to judge yourself?

Who are you to betray yourself?

Who are you to criticize yourself?

You don't have to be perfect to be lovable in your own eyes.

Because lord loves the way you are.

You don't have to be a high achiever to love yourself.

You can just love yourself the way you are.

Fully,

Deeply staying connected with yourself,

Your emotions,

Your feelings.

Because Krishna respects me as I am,

As his part and parcel.

So learn how to accept yourself for all the feelings that you may have.

Learn how to be compassionate to yourself for all the mistakes you may have done in the past.

Learn how to be compassionate to yourself for the painful story of life you may have gone through.

Please be compassionate to yourself.

It must be very hard for you.

Grieve the loss of any friends or relatives who may have lived with you.

Because your emotions have lot of meaning as they are sourced from Krishna himself.

There is a lot of value to your emotions because you are valuable as Krishna's,

His own part and parcel.

And as you begin in your journey of loving yourself,

You are loving yourself fully.

You are accepting yourself fully without any worry whether you are perfect or not.

It just doesn't matter to Krishna.

Krishna loves you unconditionally.

And because you see yourself from Krishna's point of view,

You are loving yourself unconditionally as well.

So no more suppressing yourself.

No more sabotaging yourself.

No more burying your dreams and aspirations of serving Krishna.

No more allowing part of yourself to get chipped away as you struggle to be in a difficult relationship and difficult situation.

No more signing up for the incompetent people,

Unloving people just because you are loving for love.

No more being in uncomfortable situations where you are not valued as a spirit soul,

As a part and parcel of the Supreme Lord.

No more being in places or with people where your core,

Your being,

Your deepest existence of being a spirit soul is not valued in relationship to Krishna.

And no more being in situations which are not in alignment with my service to the Supreme Lord.

Continue to honour yourself as you grow in the self-loving journey.

Partner with yourself.

You don't have to be helpless.

You have immense energy invested in you by the Lord Krishna.

And He personally will continue to supply all energies as and when we may need them.

So,

Partner with yourself,

Partner your energy knowing that you have your back.

You are fully there for yourself because you are fully loving yourself.

You are fully there to take care of yourself,

Honour yourself,

Take care of your needs and feelings because you love yourself.

Because you are partnered with yourself.

Because Krishna loves you unconditionally and infinitely.

No more pain in your life.

No more painful relationship in your life.

No more painful situation in our life.

Because you love yourself.

And the more you love yourself,

The more partnered you become with yourself.

Having your back standing with yourself very strongly and steadily.

You are happier.

So,

Visualize what is that self-partnered you,

That self-loving you look like.

As you release all judgments and all pressure and all the imperfections you may have.

What is that self-partnered and self-loving as you love yourself looks like?

Being fully blessed by the Lord's loving energy.

So,

Visualize what do you look like when you are self-loving as a spirit soul.

Stay with that vision.

Make it a deep impression in your heart.

And work towards that every single day.

This guided meditation is here to help you.

Partner with yourself.

Love yourself.

Connect yourself to the source of all love,

Lord Krishna.

So,

We can get healed and we can connect ourselves to the whole of Krishna's love.

Keep breathing deeply as you visualize yourself self-loving.

Immensely raining and getting wet in the love of Krishna.

Self-partnered person.

And any insight,

Anything that you need to take note of that come up in this guided meditation.

Make a mental note of that.

Say to yourself,

I am fully partnered with myself because I have Krishna with me.

I am here for myself.

I love myself as Krishna is always loving me with his merciful glances.

And he is basking me in his loving rays which is emanating from his merciful glances.

I am exactly who I need to be in this moment.

I am willing to take care of myself because Krishna takes care of me.

I am worthy of Lord's love as a spirit soul.

I am complete with the Lord.

I am learning to love myself as Lord loves me.

It's okay for me to feel scared,

To feel sad,

To feel awkward,

Imperfect.

But I love myself and I accept myself as I am with all of that uniqueness I may have given by Krishna.

I am beautiful as a spirit soul.

I am completely healed.

I am completely whole again in relationship with Krishna.

I am growing in my relationship with Krishna.

And my glow of a real spiritual being is coming out of my body and mind.

I lovingly embrace my fears as it will be all vanquished by Krishna very soon.

I trust my natural wisdom provided by Krishna's Bhagavad Gita.

I am open and receptive.

And I believe in myself.

And as you say these things,

Note down how you are feeling.

Which statement you like the most.

Note that down as well.

Keep saying these things to yourself.

Keep breathing deeply.

And you may gradually bring yourself,

Partner,

New rejuvenated self back to the room.

Awareness of the room.

Gently tap your fingers and wiggle your toes.

And you may open your eyes.

When you are ready,

Carrying these deep impressions in your mind.

That you have learned about yourself.

Insights that you have received and promised me that you are going to honor them.

And honor Krishna's love.

Not going to disrespect Krishna's care and concern for us.

And you may open your eyes when you are ready.

If you haven't done that already.

Gently come to the awareness of the room.

With your eyes open.

And make sure you write down any amazing insight that have come through this guided meditation.
