A Graceful Step Forward

Do you need to forgive yourself? Or perhaps someone else? In this meditation, take one step forward in the process of forgiveness. The same grace you grant yourself in this meditation can be extended to someone else.

As you settle into your space, Find comfort in your seat. If it feels right, Close your eyes. Take a deep breath in and release what's weighing on you. Release the guilt, The shame, The disgust, The judgment, And the sadness. Breathe deeply. As you give yourself grace, Think of someone in your community who deserves grace too. Whether it's someone in your immediate family, A friend, A foe, Someone out in the world. Take a deep breath in and before you cringe, Hold them in your mind for a moment. Whatever they've done, Release it. Release the hurt, The pain, The trauma. Continue breathing. It may not be easy, But it's a start. You may need longer than a breath, But begin. Begin to free yourself from the burden. Release. Breathe. Release. Breathe. Release. Take a moment to yourself. Consider if there's anything remaining and how you can move forward. What do you need to fully let go? Now you've started to release what you've held deep within. Don't stop here. Let it continue. Free yourself from the burden and release.
