Self-love meditation.
If we do not allow the natural love for ourselves to be expressed,
Love does not reveal its beauty very often throughout each days of our lives.
Get into a nice relaxing position,
Removing any distractions for the duration of the session.
Take the first action in self-love right now.
Your ability to breathe at will in all different kinds of ways.
Our breath has been there literally our entire lives,
Changing as needed to the demand of the exciting circumstances and flowing effortlessly when we're resting.
Taking multiple full and deep breaths every day is proven to change our bodies and minds for the better.
Taking 5 full and deep breaths,
Holding in for a moment at the top and naturally exhaling.
1.
Inhale a nice and big breath,
Expanding your belly and lungs as much as you can.
Hold it and exhale gently with relief.
2.
Inhaling fresh oxygen that will be supplied to your bloodstream,
Hold it to soak it in and exhaling without any effort.
3.
Inhale feeling rejuvenated and invigorated by this breathing,
Hold it and exhale easily.
4.
Inhale noticing how breathing fully comes naturally for you,
Pausing to soak it in and exhale any tension or worry.
5.
Inhaling fulling as an act of self-love,
Pausing to feel this love and exhale into complete relaxation.
Let your breath flow at a pace without any effort from you now.
Good.
By doing this,
You're proving you're capable of self-love.
Deep breathing increases the supply of oxygen to your brain and it stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system,
Sometimes referred as to the rest and digest system.
By breathing deeply and often,
You are commending your body to rest,
Which relaxes and rejuvenates you.
This is self-love in its simplest form,
That anyone can do it at any time of the day.
Now let's honor ourself by relaxing the mind even further.
Notice now how your thoughts are rising in your mind,
One after the other.
See them come and see them go.
Some thoughts linger for some time and some thoughts only come for a split second.
If you can only really focus,
You will notice even smaller thoughts.
Such as describing the world around you or labeling the things in your surroundings.
Let your hearing become super alert now and try to focus on some sounds around you.
Maybe you can hear the sound of your breath.
Can you hear nature passing by or perhaps cars passing by or people talking to each other?
Just go from sound to sound,
Focusing on one or more sounds.
Sound to sound,
Focusing on one at a time.
Now stop focusing on any sound in particular and just allow all of the noises around you to come in equally.
And when you hear them,
They almost act as tiny waves of relaxation,
Calming your mind.
Good.
Your mind relaxes when you activate your senses on command.
Let's use the power of your amazing visualization abilities to induce self-love.
Begin to imagine yourself full of abundance of self-love.
Another form of self-love is observing your mental chatter.
In order to have great self-love,
You must expand the good things you feel about yourself and challenge any negative thoughts as soon as they arise.
So hear yourself saying,
When I fully love myself,
I am able to fully love others.
Deciding to love myself is a wonderful agreement.
Each day,
I allow myself,
I allow my love for myself to grow more and more.
I am worthy of love and I honor the joy that comes with it.
Deciding to love myself unconditionally,
No matter what happens,
Feels wonderful.
I deserve love and respect.
My self-esteem grows along with my self-love.
I love and accept everything about myself.
I completely and always love myself.
Today,
I love myself even more than yesterday.
Truly loving myself is easy for me.
The more I love myself,
The better my entire breath.
The more I love myself,
The better my entire health.
I love every moment of my existence.
Every part of me that makes me who I am is encompassed with love.
I have unconditional love with me that overflows in abundance to those around me.
Great.
Now gently opening your eyes,
Take a fresh breath and know that whenever you love yourself,
You will find love.
Thank you.
