Transcript

Find a comfortable position,

Either seated or lying down.

Close your eyes gently.

Take a deep breath in through the nose and a long breath out through the mouth.

Feel your body supported beneath you.

There is nowhere else you need to be,

Nothing else you need to do.

For this moment,

You are enough as you are.

Begin to notice your breath,

Natural and steady.

Inhale for a count of 4,

3,

2,

1.

And exhale for a count of 6,

5,

4,

3,

2,

1.

With each exhale,

Imagine releasing the weight of expectations.

The need to perform,

Prove,

Or push.

With each inhale,

Breathe in a sense of calm,

Strength,

And trust in yourself.

Bring awareness to the forehead,

Soften.

Relax your jaw,

Your shoulders.

Feel your chest expand with each inhale.

Feel your spine supporting you,

Steady and strong.

Repeat silently with each breath,

I do not need to prove,

I simply need to be.

Let this truth sink into your body,

Into your cells.

See yourself moving through the day ahead.

Imagine moments where you might feel pressure to prove yourself,

At work,

With friends,

In your relationships.

Now picture yourself pausing,

Breathing,

And simply showing up as you are.

No striving,

No justifying.

Notice how freeing it feels to carry yourself with quiet confidence.

Return to the rhythm of your breath.

Feel the stillness and strength within you.

Silently,

Or aloud,

Repeat after me.

I release the need to prove myself.

I trust my truth.

Who I am is already enough.

Carry this into your morning as a gentle reminder.

You don't need to do more,

Say more,

Or be more.

You only need to be yourself.

When you're ready,

Bring movement into your body,

Open your eyes,

And step into your day with clarity and self-trust.

Namaste.

Wonderful short morning meditation. A beautiful reminder that all we have to do is be ourselves. Thank you. 🙏☺️

I loved this practice as a simple reminder that we don't need to do more. We just need to be. 💜

This was perfect! Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much!

A beautiful meditation. Thank you for sharing Namaste.

This meditation was so perfect to
help me let go of heavy expectations I have been experiencing. Thank you so much!

Extremely grateful for this succinct, poignant, and direct meditation. The waves of worry, comparison, self-evaluation, and being justification are always strong. So much of our waking lives are determined by what we can prove, or what we can quantify.

This meditation is a reminder that peace lies within, and can be found easiest in the breath. Thank you!

This exercise in meditation is a perfect symbiosis of gentleness and power.
