It's so beautiful that you are here.
Make yourself as comfortable as you possibly can.
Take a slow,
Gentle breath in.
And allow yourself to arrive just as you are.
For these next few moments,
There is nowhere else you need to be and nothing you need to become.
As you listen,
You'll be gently held by a sound dealing with 5-8Hz,
A frequency often associated with love.
Allow yourself to rest within it.
Let the sounds wash through you.
Today is an invitation to receive,
To remember,
To accept yourself more deeply.
Self-acceptance begins here,
Not by changing who you are,
But by gently welcoming every part of yourself,
Even the parts you found difficult to love.
Self-acceptance is a beautiful gift you give to yourself.
A gift that naturally resonates out to the people in your life.
As the affirmations begin,
You may like to repeat them silently,
Whisper them softly,
Or simply listen with an open heart.
Trust whatever feels most natural for you today.
Allow each affirmation to become a feeling.
If your mind wanders,
Gently notice and return.
Each time you listen,
The feeling of accepting yourself exactly as you are becomes a little more familiar.
Take one more slow,
Gentle breath.
And let's begin.
This first step is about gently receiving yourself exactly as you are.
I allow myself to be just as I am.
There is nothing I need to change about who I am.
I welcome myself fully and wholeheartedly.
With every gentle breath,
I soften into acceptance.
I no longer carry the weight of needing to be perfect.
There is space for every part of my experience.
Nothing within me needs to stay in the shadows.
Kindness becomes the way I meet myself.
Give myself permission to simply be.
I no longer need to become someone else to belong.
I can no longer abandon myself to belong.
Nothing in me has ever been unworthy of love.
Every part of me is worthy of compassion.
I belong here,
In this moment,
Exactly as I am.
Now for the next minute,
Simply breathe and allow whatever is here to be here.
This next step is about remembering what has always been true.
Nothing essential has ever been missing.
I welcome myself exactly as I am.
With every gentle breath,
I let go and come home to myself.
The parts of me I once rejected have always been worthy of love.
Beneath every judgement,
Acceptance has been patiently waiting.
Nothing within me has ever been a mistake.
I have never needed to earn my place.
I've never needed to earn my worth.
I have always been enough.
Exactly as I am.
Wholeness has always been here.
I accept myself exactly as I am.
Acceptance is a gift I give to myself and a gift I can give to others.
Now for the next minute,
Simply breathe and allow whatever is here to be here.
This final step is about embodying the feeling of acceptance.
Day and move through life with greater gentleness.
I welcome myself exactly as I am.
I allow myself to be without judgement.
With every gentle breath,
I remember who I am.
Listening to myself is an act of kindness.
It is safe to rest and be who I am.
I no longer shrink to make others comfortable.
I no longer dim my light or hide away.
The more I welcome myself,
The more peacefully I live.
The more I allow myself to be,
The more love I can feel.
I am free to walk through life and be myself and share my gifts.
Acceptance is a gift I give to myself and a gift I can give to others.
In this moment,
I accept myself fully.
Wholeheartedly.
Now for the next minute,
Simply breathe.
And embody that feeling of accepting yourself exactly as you are.
Now imagine yourself.
Rising from this session,
Still deeply connected with this beautiful feeling of acceptance.
Imagine yourself going about your day,
Speaking with people.
Doing whatever you need to do.
Still deeply connected with this feeling of acceptance.
Imagine yourself climbing into bed,
Closing your eyes,
Falling asleep.
Still deeply connected with this feeling of acceptance.
And imagine yourself waking up tomorrow morning.
Opening your eyes,
Ready for a new day.
Still deeply connected with this feeling of acceptance.
Off for the next minute.
Simply breathe and allow the feeling of accepting yourself exactly as you are.
Permeate every cell of your body.
Let's finish with a blessing.
May gentleness find you again and again.
Kindness and acceptance become the way you meet yourself.
May your heart grow softer as you learn to love and welcome every part of yourself.
And if you forget,
As we all do,
May you remember that the peace of acceptance has never been far away.
It's always been within you.
Take one final slow,
Gentle breath.
And allow yourself to let go.
Thank you for allowing me to share this journey with you.
Until next time,
Be gentle with yourself,
Be kind to yourself.
And always remember,
You're enough exactly as you are.
