Every once in a while,
We all need a little boost to our self-confidence.
Some people may need a lift on occasion,
While others may feel the need more often.
In all honesty,
I have never met anyone who said they wish they had less self-confidence.
Whether you have a big presentation coming up,
Want to ask for that promotion at work,
Build up the courage to ask that special someone on a date,
Need to set some personal boundaries,
Or if you just forgot how wonderful you are,
We can all use a little encouragement to help us get past that next challenge.
With that in mind,
If you are ready,
Relax,
Get comfortable in a quiet area,
Either sitting up straight or lying down with your arms by your sides.
Now close your eyes and let the worries of the day go.
Notice your breath in and out,
Breathing deeply and slowly,
Just breathing in and out.
You are becoming more relaxed.
As you breathe and continue to relax,
Imagine yourself walking through a beautiful home,
Your beautiful home,
Your dream home.
It's built just the way you want,
With all the rooms and features you've ever dreamed of.
Each room,
Hall,
And walkway is filled with the furniture and decor that you truly enjoy.
You walk through your dream home until you get to your favorite room,
The room that is all yours,
The room that is just for you.
You look around your room and you see all of your favorite things,
Your favorite furniture,
Your favorite belongings,
Your favorite photos and artwork.
Look around.
Do you see the mirror on the wall?
Walk towards the mirror.
Stand before the mirror and see yourself in its reflection.
As you stand there,
Feeling relaxed and serene,
Seeing your reflection,
You feel peace and happiness.
You are pleased with who you are,
With who you have become.
You are the person who created your life,
And you will continue to create your amazing life in the future.
You continue to gaze at your reflection.
As you stand there,
You look at your body and focus on your eyes.
Look into your eyes.
You look deeper and deeper until you reach the understanding that you are perfect,
Just the way you are.
You are whole and complete right now.
You look deeply and accept yourself unconditionally.
You are relaxed and serene.
You know that what others think of you is none of your business.
You have created your own personal boundaries and you hold others to those same boundaries.
You love and accept yourself for who you are right now,
At this very moment.
It's all right.
Perfect,
Actually.
You've taken back your personal power.
Each day that passes,
Your confidence in yourself grows.
You know that you are strong and smart.
You feel good about yourself.
You can face your life with confidence.
To be a winner,
You are ready to grow more fully today.
It's all right.
Serene and peaceful.
You know that you can continue to grow from where you are now,
To be assertive with others,
Always seeking a win-win situation.
You now respond calmly and with good judgment.
To any situation.
You also know that it's acceptable to tell people,
No,
That you no longer have to please everyone,
That it's perfectly fine to stand up for yourself and protect your values,
Your self-worth.
You know that you can do anything to help others.
Stand up for yourself and protect your values,
Your self-worth,
And your beliefs.
You are still deeply relaxed.
Now silently in your mind,
Repeat this phrase.
I am strong and I am ready to accept the opportunities life has in store for me.
And again,
Silently to yourself say,
I am strong and I am ready to accept the opportunities life has in store for me.
And one more time in your mind,
Repeat the phrase,
I am strong and I am ready to accept the opportunities life has in store for me.
As the coming days pass,
Your self-confidence continues to grow stronger and stronger.
With the passing of each day,
Your belief in yourself grows.
You are ready to accept the opportunities that life brings you.
You are ready,
Confident,
Up to the task.
And it's all right.
You are peaceful and serene.
As your confidence continues to grow,
You find yourself surrounding yourself with like-minded people.
People who share your values.
People who think as you do.
Positive,
Upbeat people.
Your belief in yourself grows daily.
You are a strong and gifted person.
You are pleased with who you are and how far you have come.
You are whole and complete.
You love yourself unconditionally.
Right now.
Just the way you are.
You are perfect.
Now just enjoy this music for one more minute.
Reflecting in your confidence.
