Hello Shining Soul,
And good morning.
If this is your first time here,
Welcome.
I am Celia,
A certified meditation teacher,
And I am so grateful to be guiding you today.
Allow yourself to simply be present in this moment.
Before we begin,
This practice was created to be returned to.
If you find that it brings you peace,
I gently encourage you to make this part of your daily morning routine.
Like any practice,
The more you show up for it,
The more deeply it works within you.
Save this meditation and let it be the first thing that greets you each morning.
You deserve to start every day from a place of calm and love.
Find a comfortable position,
Wherever you are,
Right now.
Allow your pack to soften.
Let your face melt into ease.
As well as your jaw.
And your forehead.
And gently let your hands rest in your lap.
Take a slow breath in through your nose.
And a long releasing breath out through your nose or mouth,
Whichever is most comfortable for you.
And I can breathe in deeply.
And release.
Letting your body become softer with every exhale.
You This morning,
We are creating a gentle space for yourself.
A space where there is no pressure,
No urgency,
No weight to be carried.
Just you,
Your breath,
In this present moment.
So many of us wake up with a quiet hum of money anxiety already present,
Before the day has even begun.
That anxiety can feel like a tightness in the chest,
A racing mind.
A low whisper that says,
There is not enough.
You are not enough.
And today we are gently meeting that anxiety with love.
Not by fighting it,
Not by ignoring it,
But by softly setting it down and returning to ourselves first.
You are not your anxiety.
You are not your financial fears.
You are not your worst case scenario.
You are a whole,
Worthy,
Deeply loved human being.
Let's arrive fully in the body now.
Notice the rise and fall of your chest,
The gentle rhythm of your breathing.
Your body is here,
Present,
Safe.
Place one hand gently over your heart if that feels right to you.
Feel it beating,
Steady,
Faithful,
Strong.
This heart has carried you through every difficult season of your life.
And here you are,
Still standing.
And when you're ready,
Gently release your hand back to rest in your lap,
And know that warmth stays with you.
It lives within you always.
Take a grounding breath in.
And release.
Receive each affirmation as a gentle truth returning to you.
You don't need to force belief.
Simply allow the words to settle in.
I release the fear and anxiety around money that I have been carrying.
I give myself permission to feel at peace in this moment.
I do not need to have everything figured out to feel okay.
I am allowed to rest from financial worry.
Piece is available to me right now and I choose it.
Take a few breaths here.
Money anxiety is one of the most common human experiences.
You are not alone in this feeling.
But anxiety is not the truth of who you are.
It is simply a feeling,
And feelings like clouds pass through.
You do not have to believe every anxious thought that visits you this morning.
You are allowed to choose peace instead.
I love and accept myself exactly as I am right now.
You My worth has nothing to do with my finances.
I am enough,
Regardless of what my bank account says.
I treat myself with kindness,
Especially in moments of stress.
You I am doing the best I can and that is always enough.
I deserve love,
Care,
And gentleness,
Especially from myself.
I release the need to judge myself for where I am right now.
Take a slow breath in.
And release.
So often we tie our sense of worth to our productivity,
Our income,
Our ability to provide or achieve.
But your worth was never something you had to earn.
You were born worthy,
Whole,
Complete.
And no financial season,
No matter how difficult,
Can take that from you.
I am safe in this moment.
I trust that I have what I need right now.
I release money anxiety from my body and my mind.
I am gentle with myself as I navigate this season of my life.
I choose trust over fear,
One breath at a time.
I am held even when I cannot see the way forward.
My peace does not depend on my circumstances.
Gently bring your awareness back to your body.
Notice how you feel right now compared to when you first sat down.
Perhaps a little softer,
A little lighter.
Allow your shoulders to drop just a little more.
Your jaw on a clench.
Let your hands rest open and easy in your lap.
Feel the ground beneath you,
Supporting you,
Holding you.
You are safe here.
You are held here.
Take a deep breath in.
And a long slow breath out.
I release any shame I have carried around money.
I forgive myself for any financial decisions I regret.
I did the best I could with what I knew at that time.
I am not my mistakes.
I am not my past.
I am free to begin again with love and without judgment.
I am worthy of financial peace and emotional freedom.
I release guilt and I welcome grace.
You Take a breath here.
In and out.
Shame is one of the happiest things we carry.
And so many of us carry it silently around money,
Around debt,
Around past decisions,
Around not being where we thought we would be by now.
The shame has never helped anyone heal.
What heals us is compassion for ourselves and others.
For the versions of us that were doing their best in hard circumstances.
Today we choose compassion over criticism.
We choose love over shame.
Right now,
In this moment,
I am okay.
Right now,
In this moment,
I am breathing.
Right now,
In this moment,
I am safe.
I return to the present moment where there is always enough.
I choose to live in this moment,
Not in fear of the future.
This moment is peaceful.
This moment is mine.
Take a slow breath in.
And release.
The present moment is the only place where peace truly lives.
Not in the future,
When things are figured out.
Not when the numbers look different,
But right here,
Right now.
You can choose peace now,
Not because everything is perfect,
But because you deserve to feel peace regardless.
I am worthy of peace and a joyful life.
I release my anxiety and embrace self-love.
I am kind to myself on this journey.
I trust myself.
I love myself.
I am enough.
I begin this day rooted in peace and in love.
I am so much more than my financial worries.
I am whole.
I am worthy.
I am loved.
You have shown up for yourself this morning.
That is not a small thing.
Every time you choose to return to this practice,
Every time you choose your peace over your money anxiety,
You are gently shifting the relationship you have with yourself,
With money,
With life.
That is powerful work and you are doing it.
Carry this gentleness with you into your day,
Not as something fragile,
But as something that belongs to you.
Now take one final deep breath in.
And let it go completely.
Begin to gently wiggle your fingers and your toes.
Slowly bringing your awareness back into the room around you.
Take your time,
There is no rush.
And when you're ready,
In your own time,
Gently open your eyes.
You Welcome back,
Shining soul.
You are loved and you are going to be okay.
Stay shining.
You are loved.
