Welcome yourself to this moment.
Give yourself full permission to be here with you,
Focusing only on you.
Close your eyes if that feels right to you.
Breathe in slowly.
Use the exhale to drop in.
Feel your awareness move inward.
Observe and see all the feelings that are swirling within you.
Steady breath in.
Steady,
Slow exhale.
And practice coming back.
Without any judgment,
Simply returning to the breath,
The breath that anchors you.
My friend,
Your energy is sacred.
What you offer,
Your time,
Your attention,
It's your greatest currency.
The peace within you deserves to be protected.
It's time to release any people-pleasing tendencies.
Because when we keep the peace of others-pleasing others,
Abandoning our own needs and wants,
We create a war within ourselves.
You are allowed to say no.
You are allowed to create a boundary.
You are allowed to take time for you.
Let it be about you.
Inhale.
Exhale.
What would it feel like to protect your peace?
Breathe in gently.
Maybe visualizing a beautiful glow of energy surrounding you,
Protecting you.
Listen to these words by Charlotte Freeman and really take them to heart.
I hope you have the courage to choose yourself over and over.
I hope you have the courage to move forward,
Not backwards.
I hope you know how worthy you are of everything you've wanted,
Even if an unkind heart has led you to believe otherwise.
Your soft heart deserves to feel loved and chosen,
Not just today,
But every day.
I hope you wake up each day feeling hopeful and encouraged,
Knowing that you're so capable of every single thing you want to do,
Big or small.
I hope you remember that progression isn't always easy,
And sometimes the things that scare you will actually get you a lot closer to where you want to be.
I hope you make the most of each day and know that you are worthy of the life you have been gifted,
That you are worthy of success and deserve all the triumphs you've worked so hard for and all the beautiful things coming your way.
I hope you have the courage to choose yourself over and over.
Breathe in.
You deserve to feel this peace within.
Boundaries are kind.
Being clear is kind.
Know when you want to say no is kind.
Saying what you want and need is kind.
Inhale.
Let it go.
Exhale.
Feel this shift within you,
A new awareness.
You are worthy of protecting.
Let something go.
Feel the weight of your hands on your lap.
Relax your shoulders,
Your neck,
Your jaw.
Feel the temperature of the room you're in.
As you become ready,
Blinking your eyes open if they were closed.
Reorienting yourself in your space.
Choosing to stay connected to your heart.
Protect your peace,
My friend.
From my heart to yours.
