Transcript

We spend our lives searching for answers,

Asking others instead of ourselves.

I beg you to pause and look inside.

Hear that heartbeat,

That inner guide?

Go look in the mirror.

What do you see?

Your answer is right there,

That soul staring back at you.

That is the key.

No matter where you go or what you do,

They are always there.

They help you through.

Every day they show up,

They always have your back.

Don't you think it's time that you cut them some slack?

It's time to say and truly feel it,

I love myself and I really mean it.

Once you discover your inner beauty,

I promise you this,

You will be free.

Free from sorrow and despair and you can celebrate your own unique flair.

You won't need to seek from another because you already know I am me and I am ready to glow.

You have the power to shine bright,

So go on,

Set that inner candle alight.

Watch your fire grow more each day.

Stand strong in your own love and say,

Here I am.

I am me.

I am worthy.

I hold the key.

🙏🏼🪽 you've just changed my day! This meditation was like medicine to my soul 💖 Thank you so much!

Carly from a Smile from Heaven is just the greatest inspiration! She speaks from truth, and shares openly, enourages us, enlightens us and helps us open our creative channels. Her journaling guided meditations are excellent and the cacao ceremonies are my personal favorite! Thank you, Carly, for bringing us so delicately into your world and for showing us our possibilities. A true gem to the meditation and creative community!

A beautiful tribute to Hecate and my journey with her. As above so below. Blessings dear one.

Love that Carley. You have been, and continue to be, a major contributor and inspiration in my own healing journey towards wholeness. Both myself, and Lauren, thank you and send you love. Neil xx

Really enjoyed this and may carry an old key with me to remember this

Very beatiful reminder! I often forget this. Thank you.

Good morning! Thank you this was so helpful. Sometimes I feel like I dim my own light and let other shine. I do this because I don’t want to make waves, so I kind of make myself smaller when I truly do deserve a seat at the table and I deserve to let my own light shine. Many blessings.

Beautiful, uplifting and empowering poem, thank you Carley ✨💜✨

Perfect meditation to start my day, thank you
