Hi my friend,
Begin to slowly arrive in this moment.
You can close your eyes if you'd like.
This meditation is simple,
Yet a powerful reminder that you,
My friend,
Don't need to prove anything.
You don't need to earn your worth.
Your simple existence is enough.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
Sit with these words by Zaina Keithley,
Achieving your goals and dreams won't prove anything.
It won't prove that you're worthy,
That you're successful,
That you're valuable or capable.
It won't prove that you're talented or important or enough.
It won't prove anything because you have nothing to prove,
Nothing.
You don't need to prove that you're worth the effort and attention,
That you're worth knowing and loving.
You don't need to gain validation.
You already have it.
The acceptance you're looking for is already inside you,
But if you're always trying to prove something with your achievements,
You'll never find fulfillment.
There will forever be a new end to the sentence,
I'll be happy when.
.
.
Don't fall into an endless cycle of trying to prove your worth.
Set your own foundation of unconditional worthiness and acceptance and then achieve your goals and follow your dreams because you love it.
Because it brings you genuine joy.
Because it lifts you up.
Do it because it's a gift you can offer the world,
Your heart,
Your energy,
The magnificence of all that you are,
An irrepressible spirit who was born to shine their light.
You don't need to prove anything.
Breathe out.
Notice what energy shifts within you.
As you come back to this truth,
You don't need to set out to prove anything because you know you have nothing to prove.
Notice what's coming up for you now.
What a relief it is to know that you are enough.
Really settle into this.
Maybe whisper to yourself,
I have nothing to prove,
I am enough.
Allow yourself to sit here in the quiet of your own mind,
Observing,
Noticing.
Only when you're ready,
Maybe place a hand over your heart.
Feel the relief.
Feel a deep trust in knowing that you are seen and worthy,
Valued and appreciated as you are.
Nothing to gain,
Nothing to prove.
Take your sweet time,
Maybe finding a soft smile and blinking your eyes open if they were closed.
Go forward into your day,
Nothing to prove,
Just be you.
Remember,
Your worth is immeasurable.
One more cleansing breath in,
Release.
From my heart to yours.
