Welcome to this meditation.
And thank you for taking this moment for yourself.
If you're here.
You're probably going through a heartbreak.
And I know how painful that can be.
Sometimes it can all feel like a lot to carry.
So let's take a few minutes here.
To make things feel a little lighter.
And reconnect with yourself.
Let's begin by finding a comfortable position.
Either seated or laying down.
And when you're ready.
Gently close your eyes.
Take a moment to arrive here.
Feel where your body makes contact with the surface beneath you.
Allow your body.
To settle.
Thanks for watching!
Now take a moment to check in with yourself.
Which thoughts or stories are present right now?
Maybe thoughts about the other person.
Memories of the time you shared.
Or things you wish had gone differently.
Just notice what is on your mind.
And then ask yourself.
How are you feeling right now?
Maybe you feel lonely.
Sad.
Angry or disappointed.
Heartbreak can bring up so many different emotions.
Whatever you're experiencing.
It's a natural response.
When you're going through something painful.
Now bring your attention to your body.
How does this feeling show up physically?
Maybe as a heaviness in your chest.
Tightness in your throat.
A knot in your stomach.
Or tension somewhere else in your body.
Bring your full attention to that space.
Notice the sensations.
The energy.
Allow yourself to be fully present with them.
Stay here for a little while.
Simply observing.
Now notice your breath moving in and out.
On your next inhale,
Take a slightly deeper breath.
Gently direct your breath towards that space.
And slowly breathe out.
Breathe in,
Making room for what you feel.
And breathe out,
Softening around the sensation.
Again,
Breathing in.
And breathe out.
Continue for a few more breaths.
You Now let your breath return to its natural rhythm.
Notice how you feel.
Perhaps something has shifted.
Or maybe it feels much the same.
Simply take a moment to notice.
Now gently bring both hands to your heart.
Feel the warmth of your hands against your chest.
Take a moment to connect with yourself.
With kindness and compassion.
When you're going through a heartbreak.
So much of your attention can go towards the other person.
Thinking about them.
Replaying what happened.
Wondering what could have been.
And somewhere in all of that.
You can lose touch with yourself.
So for this moment Let your attention come home.
To your own heart.
To your own needs.
To yourself.
You don't have to stop caring about someone.
To care for yourself.
You don't have to be over it.
You can still be hurting.
And you can still offer yourself some kindness.
Feel your hands resting on your heart.
Take a slow,
Comfortable breath towards your heart space.
What would it feel like?
To treat yourself with a little more tenderness.
To offer yourself.
The same kindness and care you would give to someone you love.
You don't need to have all the answers.
You don't need to know when this will feel easier.
For now.
Take things one breath at a time.
You can miss someone.
And still come back to yourself.
You can love someone.
And still take care of your own heart.
Stay here for a few more breaths.
Feel the support beneath you.
Feel your hands resting on your heart.
And when you're ready.
Slowly open your eyes.
Taking in the space around you.
There's no need to rush.
Take your time before moving on with your day.
Thank you for practicing with me.
I'm sending you a lot of softness in this process.
From my heart.
To yours.
