Welcome.
You're about to deeply relax and connect with your body to uncover its radiance,
So that you can love yourself more,
Enjoy yourself and feel ease within you and in your relationships.
So please find a quiet place,
Comfortable position,
Take the time and be intentional about preparing your yoga nidra space,
Making any adjustments for you to feel absolutely comfortable,
Slowly connecting to this moment,
Turning inward to yourself,
Noticing where in your body are you holding tension,
Is it the face,
The jaw,
The shoulders,
The belly or hips,
Just gently releasing,
Allow the tension to drain out of your body,
Through your nose and sigh out through the mouth,
Deep inhale all the way down into your belly and exhale,
Inhale as your ribcage expands,
Exhale it out.
This potent yoga nidra practice has the potential to transform the old beliefs,
So let's begin to build a belief that you are worthy and that you deserve to be fulfilled and self-loved.
You are invited to choose your sankalpa for today's yoga nidra,
The intention that resonates with you or form your own,
Referring to yourself in the present tense.
I am willing to smile at my reflection today,
I am worthy of my own love,
I treat myself like someone who matters,
I choose to speak kindly to myself and we'll begin to rotate the awareness through the body,
I'll be naming the parts and there's nothing else to do but gently land your awareness on the mentioned body part and do your best to move the awareness from one body part to the other,
No need to concentrate intensely,
Becoming aware of the contact of your body with the surface that is holding your precious body,
Bring your awareness to the crown of your head,
The center between the eyebrows,
The pit of the head,
Your heart space,
Moving the awareness to your solar plexus and down to the navel,
Left big toe,
Second,
Little toe,
Thigh in contact with the surface and now sensing the energy in your whole left leg,
Right shoulder blade,
The left shoulder blade and relaxing your whole upper back and continue sensing the back of your neck,
Your whole forehead and both of your beautiful eyes and letting go of any tension from the muscles around the face and sense your nose,
Teeth and gums,
The whole tongue,
Inside of the right cheek,
Relax your jaw and relaxing all of the muscles of your face and sense your whole head and from here allow your whole torso to sink deeper into the surface beneath you and steer the awareness to your palms,
Noticing the sensations in their openness and then gathering the attention and bringing it into the right palm,
Sensing the back of the hand,
The right thumb,
First finger,
Second,
Fourth finger,
Wrist of your right hand,
Right shoulder and gently sensing your left palm,
Back of the left hand and now let's include the whole body into the awareness and this space you can simply be,
Enjoying your presence,
This silence with yourself,
How deserving.
As you keep the breath flow we'll repeat the intention from the beginning,
Pairing the intention with the vision of your new behavior in action,
Allowing it to take root in both your mind and body.
I choose to speak kindly to myself,
I am willing to smile at my reflection today,
Precious and worthy of my own,
I treat myself like someone who matters.
Just like any other skill that we want to learn,
Loving ourselves is a practice,
But the more we do it,
The easier it gets.
And in your own tempo,
With small movements of your fingers,
Toes,
Start waking up your body and still keeping the eyes closed,
Roll onto one side,
Thank yourself for giving yourself this space,
Time to enrich yourself and then coming into sitting,
Give yourself a nice big hug,
Embrace your body,
Generating as much love for yourself as you can in this very moment.
And from Germany,
I'm sending you a hug as well and wishing you a blessed day abundant with self-compassion and love for yourself.
Thank you for joining me in this nervous system reset and self-love yoga nidra.
Namaste.
