Today,

We explore together a deep and liberating territory,

Freeing yourself from the need for approval and awakening your internal validation.

How many of us navigate through life constantly seeking the approval of others,

Adjusting our choices,

Our words,

Our very being according to the perceived or real expectations of those around us?

This exhausting quest takes us away from our true essence and authentic power.

This meditation is specially designed to reconnect you with your inner source of validation,

That internal compass that guides you toward your truth.

By regularly cultivating this practice,

You strengthen your emotional autonomy and self-confidence.

I invite you to practice it daily for an extended period to deeply anchor these new thought patterns.

Do not worry if you fall asleep during this session,

It is actually desirable.

Your unconscious remains active and receptive even during sleep,

Continuing to absorb each benevolent suggestion,

Each healing intention that we plant together tonight.

Now,

Settle comfortably in your bed,

Adjust your position to feel perfectly at ease.

The meditation will begin shortly.

Gently close your eyelids and take a first deep breath.

Feel the fresh air entering your nostrils,

Traveling down your throat,

Filling your lungs.

Then slowly release,

Letting go of all the tensions accumulated during the day with this exhalation.

With each following inhalation,

You enter more deeply into a state of natural relaxation.

With each exhalation,

You further release the constraints of your analytical mind.

Allow your body to surrender to gravity.

Feel supported by your mattress,

Welcomed by this space of rest.

Now,

Visualize a golden relaxation wave born at the crown of your head.

This warm and soothing light begins its slow and meticulous journey through your being.

It caresses your forehead,

Undoing the creases of concentration.

Slides over your temples,

Releasing micro-tensions.

Descends to your eyes,

Inviting your eyelids to become even heavier.

This luminous wave continues its beneficial progression along your face,

Relaxing your jaw,

Freeing your neck from any rigidity.

It blossoms in your shoulders,

Those faithful bearers of responsibilities,

Finally offering them rest.

Flows down your arms to the tips of your fingers,

Carrying away all residual fatigue.

The golden wave invests your chest.

Feel your heartbeat naturally calming.

It crosses your abdomen,

Releasing visceral tensions.

Travels through your back,

Vertebra after vertebra,

Until it reaches your hips,

Your legs,

And finally your feet,

Anchoring this relaxation to the tips of your toes.

In this deep relaxation,

Become aware of your current state regarding the approval of others.

Without judgment,

Simply observe those moments when you seek validation outside of yourself,

Those instances when others' opinions determine your mood,

Your choices,

Your self-esteem.

I now invite you to repeat after me.

I recognize my patterns of seeking approval with kindness,

And I now choose to turn to my inner wisdom.

Now,

Allow your to travel to a symbolic place of your autonomy.

Imagine yourself standing in the center of a vast circular library with infinite vaults.

The walls rise toward a crystal dome through which filters a soft opalescent light.

This library is not ordinary.

It contains all the books of your personal wisdom,

Each volume representing a facet of your inner knowledge.

The air in this sanctuary vibrates with a particular energy,

That of self-knowledge.

You hear a slight rustling,

As if the pages of thousands of works were turning by themselves,

Revealing the secrets of your authenticity.

In the center of this sacred space stands a desk of precious wood on which rests an open book,

Radiating with silver light.

Approach this book slowly.

Its pages seem alive,

Pulsing to the rhythm of your heart.

It is the grimoire of your internal validation,

The manual of your personal approval.

Gently place your hands on its open pages.

Instantly,

You feel a wave of comforting warmth rising up your arms.

The words inscribed on these pages begin to illuminate.

You are complete as you are.

Your value is intrinsic and does not depend on any external validation.

Your heart knows your truth.

Each sentence you read resonates within you like a forgotten evidence finding its place again.

Suddenly,

You realize that you are no longer alone in this library.

A benevolent presence manifests itself near you.

It is your future version,

The one who has fully freed itself from the need for approval.

This version of you radiates with serene confidence,

With palpable inner peace.

Observe its posture,

Straight without being rigid,

Open without being vulnerable.

Look at its eyes.

They shine with a light that seeks nothing outside because it has found its source within.

Listen to the rhythm of its breathing,

Calm,

Autonomous.

This future version of you comes forward and hands you an amethyst crystal,

Pulsing with purple light.

This is the crystal of your internal validation.

It whispers in a voice that is yours but imbued with a new wisdom.

Whenever you feel the need to seek approval outside,

Connect to this stone and it will remind you of your completeness.

Take this crystal in your hands.

Feel its vibration immediately harmonizing your energy.

A wave of pure confidence passes through your being,

Dissolving the old programming of emotional dependency.

I now invite you to repeat after me.

I anchor within me the certainty of my intrinsic value,

And I become the source of my own approval.

Now visualize the coming weeks in this new energy.

You see yourself in your daily interactions,

But something has fundamentally changed.

You no longer wait for others' approval to feel valuable.

You express your opinions with serenity.

You make your decisions by listening to your inner guidance.

What do you feel seeing this version of yourself?

What is your body posture in these future interactions?

Who are the people naturally surrounding you when you vibrate with this new energy?

What is your body posture when you vibrate in this authenticity?

What projects,

What creations emerge from this new confidence in yourself?

Take time to savor these images,

To anchor them deeply in your unconscious,

For you are now attracting this reality.

Feel this energy of internal validation crystallizing within you in the form of a golden flame at the level of your lungs,

In the center of your chest.

This flame grows with each breath,

Radiating throughout your body.

It burns the old needs for external validation,

Transforming these energies into fuel for your emotional autonomy.

I now invite you to repeat after me,

I am whole.

I am free.

I am my own source of love and joy.

I am my own source of love and approval.

Now let a deep feeling of gratitude rise within you.

Gratitude toward yourself for this courage to free yourself.

Gratitude for your nervous system that is integrating these new information right now.

Gratitude for this innate capacity you have to transform yourself.

Gratitude for all past experiences,

Even those where you sought approval elsewhere,

Because they have led you here to this liberating awareness.

This flame of internal validation continues to grow and radiate.

It becomes so luminous that it naturally begins to attract the right people,

The right opportunities,

Everything that resonates with your authentic energy.

In the velvet silence of this inner night,

The golden flame you have awakened stretches gently,

Like a star in slow expansion.

Each pulsation is a breath of peace,

A wave of gentleness that dilutes the last echoes of the outside world.

You now float in an amethyst light with pearly reflections,

Suspended in an in-between where thoughts become mist and certainties become whispers.

In the distance,

The crystal library slowly fades,

Not because it disappears,

But because it has imprinted itself in you.

Each book has become a star in your inner sky,

And you now journey guided by their glow.

There is nothing left to prove,

Nothing left to seek.

The old expectations,

The external gazes,

The perceived judgments evaporate,

Like air bubbles rising to the surface of a tranquil lake.

Around you,

The water of this lake illuminates with each breath,

Enveloping you in a feeling of completeness.

Everything becomes so simple,

So fluid.

The need for external validation fades like a distant memory,

Replaced by a gentle echo that says,

You are,

And that is enough.

The crystal you carry radiates with stable calm,

Diffusing within you a clarity that depends on no other gaze.

You are carried,

Cradled by this frequency of confidence.

Everything becomes vibration,

Transparency,

Your thoughts slow down,

Space out,

Like feathers falling slowly in an infinite space.

And in this space,

There is only your presence,

Vast,

Peaceful,

Sovereign.

You glide towards sleep like a gold leaf on the water of a nocturnal stream,

Carried by an invisible and loving intelligence.

And now,

If you are not yet asleep,

I invite you to repeat the following positive affirmations until you find sleep.

Your unconscious will then take over.

My value is intrinsic and depends on no one else.

I listen to my inner voice with confidence and respect.
