Transcript

Sit comfortably with your spine reasonably straight.

Close your eyes and let your breathing be easy and natural.

Take a few moments to just breathe and let everything slow down a bit.

Notice your breath coming in and going out.

Now invite everyone you've ever harmed during the course of your soul's journey to come and join you here.

Invite every individual you've ever harmed to come and be with you here and now.

You may see a few,

But not all.

You may see a few or many of these individuals in your mind's eye,

Or you may just feel or sense all those who are with you.

It's not necessary to know who all of them are.

All that's necessary is your intent to make a sincere apology.

Now tell them all that you are sorry for whatever you may have done to cause them harm.

Apologize for whatever pain you've caused them.

Now ask them to forgive you.

Ask them all for their forgiveness.

And now send them light from your heart.

Send them all light from your heart and wish them well as they leave.

Now imagine a being of light a little ways over your head.

Imagine a luminous being just a few feet over your head.

This being of light is your higher self.

Your higher self isn't a separate individual,

But is a part of you,

The highest part of your total self.

It's the part of you that is non-judgmental and unconditionally loving.

You may see your higher self in your mind's eye,

Or you may just sense its serene presence.

However you perceive it is okay.

Now invite your higher self to unite with you.

And imagine your higher self gently descending,

Uniting its essence with your essence,

Merging its energy with your energy.

At this moment you are one with your higher self.

Now imagine your human self,

The part of you that you normally think of as I,

Sitting in a chair in front of you.

Imagine your human self sitting in a chair directly in front of you.

You are seeing your human self through the eyes of your non-judgmental,

Unconditionally loving higher self.

You are seeing your self with total compassion.

You are seeing your self with the understanding that you were a younger soul when you made whatever mistakes you made,

And were not always capable of doing the right thing.

But you are an older soul now.

You've learned from your mistakes and will not make them again.

They're in the past.

The mistakes are in the past.

Now as your higher self,

Forgive your human self for everything harmful you've done in the past.

Forgive yourself completely and unconditionally.

Forgive yourself completely and unconditionally.

As you forgive yourself,

Whatever guilt you may have been carrying is dissolving away.

Any guilt that's been weighing you down is dissolving away,

Leaving you freer and lighter.

Now take as long as you need to finish forgiving yourself.

And when you've finished,

Take a deep breath or two and slowly open your eyes.

Thank you.
