Welcome to this meditation.

To begin,

Find a comfortable position,

Either sitting or lying down.

If it feels right for you,

You can close your eyes on the next breath,

Or lower your gaze.

Continue to allow your body to relax and your mind to settle.

Take a moment to scan your body,

Noticing any areas of tension or discomfort.

With each exhale,

Imagine releasing any tension,

Allowing your body to become more at ease.

I'll also invite you now to imagine yourself in a safe and peaceful place.

This could be a real location that you love,

Or a place created in your mind.

Take a few moments to fully immerse yourself in this environment,

Noticing the colors,

Sounds,

And sensations around you.

In this place,

Imagine inviting different parts of yourself to join you.

These parts could appear as different characters,

Symbols,

Or even as different versions of yourself.

Take your time to allow them to appear one by one.

Choose one part that stands out to you.

It might be a part that feels strong,

Or one that feels vulnerable.

Approach this part with curiosity and openness,

As if meeting a new friend.

Gently ask this part what it means and wants you to know.

Listen carefully to what it says without judgment.

This part might express feelings,

Thoughts,

Or memories.

Acknowledge its presence and thank it for sharing.

Imagine embracing this part with compassion and acceptance.

You might visualize giving it a hug,

A comforting touch,

Or simply holding space for it.

Let this part know that it is welcome and valued just as it is.

If you feel ready,

You can invite another part to join you.

Repeat the process of connecting,

Listening,

And offering acceptance.

Remember to be patient and kind to each part,

Allowing them to express themselves fully.

As you continue to accept and embrace each part,

Imagine them coming together in harmony.

Visualize them joining hands,

Maybe forming a circle,

Or simply being close to one another.

Feel the sense of unity and wholeness within you.

When you feel ready,

Slowly bring your awareness back to your surroundings.

Take a few deep breaths,

Gently moving your fingers and toes.

On the next breath,

You can open your eyes and take a moment to ground yourself in the present moment.

Reflect on your experience.

Notice any shifts in your feelings or thoughts.

Thank yourself for taking this time to connect with and accept different parts of yourself.

Remember that you can return to this inner world whenever you need to.

Thank you for your practice.
