Welcome.
I'm so glad you're here.
Today's mandala card carries the theme of truth.
Before we begin,
I invite you to have a pen and journal nearby because this session will include a few quiet moments for reflection and journaling.
Now let's arrive gently into this moment.
Find a comfortable position,
Sitting or lying down.
Let your shoulders soften and clench your jaw.
Relax your face.
Allow your body to settle.
Take a slow breath in through the nose and a steady breath out through the mouth.
Again,
Inhale,
Creating space within you,
And exhale,
Releasing what you no longer need.
One more breath in,
Calm and clear,
And out,
Grounded and present.
Now bring your awareness to your heart.
If it helps,
Place one or both hands gently over your heart and imagine breathing directly into your heart.
With each inhale,
Invite openness,
Honesty,
And courage.
With each exhale,
Let go of fear,
Of hiding,
Of shrinking yourself.
Take a moment to just breathe that in.
Say gently to yourself,
Out loud or in your mind,
My voice matters.
My truth matters.
So relax,
And just be fully present in this moment.
I'm going to share with you a reflection on truth,
And then I'll ask you to journal in response.
Truth is the courage to honour your voice and share it with the world.
Truth is not about being loud,
It is about being authentic.
When I speak my truth,
I stand in my power.
I create space for authenticity in myself and in the people around me.
Truth is the part of you that knows that what you feel is valid.
What you need is important.
What you believe deserves to be made.
And truth is not just yours to hold.
It is meant to be heard.
It is meant to be expressed.
It can set you free.
It can connect you to others.
Take a slow breath in,
And let yourself feel the strength of the truth within you.
Now I'll offer you one journal prompt.
Take a few moments to write or simply reflect.
The prompt is,
Where in my life am I being called to speak more honestly?
With myself or with someone else?
Let your words be gentle.
Let them flow.
Let them be true.
I invite you to gently bring your writing to a close.
And now it's time for an affirmation.
I'll say it first and invite you to repeat it after me,
Either in your mind or out loud.
I honour my truth.
I honour my truth.
I trust my inner voice.
I trust my inner voice.
I speak with courage and clarity.
I speak with courage and clarity.
My truth creates space for authenticity.
My truth creates space for authenticity.
My voice is meant to be heard.
My voice is meant to be heard.
Take one more deep breath in.
And a long breath out.
And when you're ready,
It's time to move into the rest of your day,
Carrying the truth within you back into the world.
May your day be filled with joy and gratitude.
Thank you.
