Welcome to this sacred time for yourself.
A space where you can reconnect with the most important person in your life,
You.
Allow yourself to settle into a comfortable position,
Either sitting or lying down.
Gently close your eyes and take a deep breath in,
Hold it for a moment and slowly exhale.
This is your time to simply be,
Without any judgment or expectations.
Take another deep breath in,
Feeling your lungs completely.
As you exhale,
Release any tension in your shoulders,
Jaw or body.
Feel yourself beginning to soften and relax.
With every breath,
You're creating a safe and loving space within.
Bring your awareness to the surface beneath you.
Feel its steady support,
Holding you gently,
Yet firmly.
Notice the rhythm of your breath as it flows naturally,
Like the ebb and flow of ocean waves.
Each inhale brings in calmness and peace.
Each exhale releases any stress or heaviness you may be carrying.
Picture yourself standing barefoot on soft,
Warm earth.
The ground is solid and stable beneath your feet,
Anchoring you in this moment.
With each breath,
Feel your connection to this earth growing deeper,
Grounding you in safety and stability.
Now,
Bring your focus to your heart center.
Place your hand gently over your chest,
If it feels comfortable.
Imagine a soft,
Warm light glowing within your heart.
This light is your love,
Your kindness and your unique essence.
With every inhale,
See this light expanding,
Growing brighter and warmer.
With every exhale,
Allow this light to soften any hardness or tension within you.
Silently or out loud,
Repeat these affirmations.
I am worthy of love and acceptance.
I honor and celebrate my unique journey.
I release self-doubt and embrace my true self.
Feel the truth of these words as they sink into your heart,
Infusing every cell in your body with love and confidence.
If self-critical thoughts arise,
Imagine them as leaves drifting on a gentle stream.
See them float away,
Carried by the current,
Becoming smaller and smaller,
Until they disappear completely.
These thoughts are not you.
They do not define your worth or your value.
With every breath,
You are creating space for love,
Kindness and acceptance.
Visualize any lingering tension or negativity melting away,
Like ice,
Under the warmth of your inner light.
Picture yourself standing in front of a mirror.
Take a moment to look into your own eyes.
What do you see?
Maybe at first,
You noticed imperfections or securities.
That's okay.
Now soften your gaze and look deeper.
See the strength,
Resilience and beauty that lies within.
Imagine your reflection smiling back at you,
Radiating unconditional love.
Whisper to yourself,
I see you.
I value you.
I love you.
Exactly as you are.
Notice how these words feel.
Allow them to resonate deeply within you.
You are enough.
You always have been.
Now visualize yourself in a place that brings you peace and joy.
It could be a sunny meadow,
A cozy room or by the ocean.
In this space,
See yourself surrounded by a soft golden light.
This light represents the love you have for yourself.
Feel its warmth enveloping you,
Filling you with a sense of comfort and wholeness.
Allow this golden light to extend beyond you,
Radiating out into the world and know that by embracing yourself fully,
You are creating a ripple effect of love and positivity.
Slowly begin to bring your awareness back to your breath.
Take a deep inhale,
Filling your lungs completely.
As you exhale,
Feel yourself grounded and present in this moment.
Wiggle your fingers and toes,
Reconnecting with your body.
Before you open your eyes,
Take a moment to silently thank yourself for showing up today,
For giving yourself this gift of self-love.
When you're ready,
Gently open your eyes and return to your day with a renewed sense of compassion and confidence.
Remember,
This practice of self-love is always here for you.
You are deserving of love,
Not just from others,
But most importantly,
From yourself.
