Survivor

In this meditation, ground yourself in the moment. Acknowledge how far you've come. Remind yourself of all the things you've overcome and be inspired to continue. You may not be exactly where you want to be, but you aren't where you were.

Transcript

Take a moment to ground yourself right here,

Wherever you are,

However you are,

Standing or sitting,

Or even lying down.

Breathe.

Allow your body to ease,

Your muscles to relax,

And your mind to gently settle.

In your life,

You may have overcome some challenges,

Fought many battles,

Escaped many demons,

Chased away fears,

Overcome adversity,

Recovered from hurt,

Pain,

Abuse,

Failure,

Disappointment,

And you are here.

Right now,

Wherever you are,

However you are,

Acknowledge this moment where you are.

Smile when you consider,

Briefly,

Where you were.

The steps it took to get here may be varied,

The mountains you had to climb,

Maybe they were enormous,

But here you are.

Ok,

So maybe here isn't exactly where you thought you'd be,

Or even where you want to be,

But can you pause for a moment and give thanks because it's not where you were.

Here isn't back there,

You survived that,

You'll survive the rest too,

Because you are a survivor.

And once you're ready to move on to becoming a thriver,

That person will be waiting for you.

For now,

You are here,

Wherever you are,

However you are.

Be here.

That was really powerful for me. I feel stuck in a bunch of situations and this was an amayreminder of how much I had been through and survived with God’s grace. Thank you!
