Hello,
I want to welcome you to this meditation from survival mode to thriving.
So let's begin.
I want to invite you to use this time,
This time for you,
This is your time.
Use it to relax and soften,
To breathe and to remember that you are more than your survival.
You are stepping gently into a space where thriving is possible.
If at any moment you feel uncomfortable,
Know that you can pause,
That you can open your eyes,
Or return to your breath.
You are always in control.
Take a slow and steady breath in,
And let it slowly flow out.
And again,
Take a slow breath in,
And let it go.
Feel the support beneath you,
Whether this is a chair,
A bed,
The floor,
Or the earth,
Wherever you have made yourself comfortable.
Feel the support,
And notice how you are held,
And that you are safe in this moment.
And now I'd like to invite you to bring your attention to your feet.
Imagine roots gently extending down into the earth,
Steadying you,
Holding you,
And giving your strength.
Notice your body,
Gently,
Without judgment.
If there's any tightness,
Breathe kindness into those places.
With every exhale,
Let go of what you no longer need to carry.
And let's use this following affirmation.
You can repeat it silently,
Or out loud,
Whatever suits you best.
I release what does not serve me.
I release what does not serve me.
I release what does not serve me.
I release what does not serve me.
I release what does not serve me.
And now,
Imagine yourself standing at the edge of a path.
Behind you is the road of survival,
Filled with effort,
Struggle,
And resilience.
You honor it,
You survived,
And that was very powerful.
Ahead of you is a new path,
One that's lined with light,
And beautiful colors,
And lots of possibility.
This is the path of thriving.
Take a gentle step forward in your mind's eye.
Notice how the ground feels different,
How it feels softer,
And brighter,
And more welcoming.
And also here,
Let's use an affirmation.
So repeat this silently,
Or out loud after me.
I honor my survival,
And now I open to thriving.
I honor my survival,
And I now open to thriving.
I honor my survival,
And I now open to thriving.
I honor my survival,
And I now open to thriving.
I honor my survival,
And I now open to thriving.
Imagine breathing in golden light.
With every inhale,
This light fills your chest,
Your heart,
And your entire being.
The golden light whispers to you,
You are safe,
You are worthy,
You are free to grow.
And we'll use the following affirmations,
Which you can repeat silently or out loud after me.
I am safe now.
I deserve joy.
I allow love and peace into my life.
I am more than my past.
I am becoming my fullest self.
I am safe now.
I deserve joy.
I allow love and peace into my life.
I am more than my past.
I am becoming my fullest self.
I am safe now.
I deserve joy.
I allow love and peace into my life.
I am more than my past.
I am becoming my fullest self.
I am safe now.
I deserve joy.
I allow love and peace into my life.
I am more than my past.
I am becoming my fullest self.
I am safe now.
I deserve joy.
I allow love and peace into my life.
I am more than my past.
I am becoming my fullest self.
Feel this thriving energy settle gently into every cell of your body.
Take a deep breath in.
And let it out with a sigh.
When you feel ready,
Slowly and gently bring your awareness back to the room.
Move your fingers a little.
Wiggle your toes a bit.
Know that you carry this light within you.
Not just here,
But in every step you take.
And let's do one final affirmation,
Which you can repeat after me,
Silent or aloud.
I am safe.
I am whole.
I am thriving.
I am safe.
I am whole.
I am thriving.
I am safe.
I am whole.
I am thriving.
I am safe.
I am whole.
I am thriving.
I am safe.
I am whole.
And when you feel ready,
Open your eyes.
When you feel that it could be of benefit for you,
Feel free to journal a bit about your experience.
What the affirmations felt like.
What happened for you.
And then I want to thank you for joining me today.
And I hope to see you next time.
Goodbye.
