As you settle into bed,
Take a deep breath,
Allowing the day to fade away.
For a moment,
Place your hand on your chest,
On the sternum,
The heart centre.
Feel the warmth from your hand,
Lighting up the light in your heart,
Healing you,
Awakening the heart.
Visualise a soft,
Golden light,
Beginning to glow and feel its warmth radiating from your heart,
Embracing you in self love.
And now put your hand back down,
Where it's comfortable by your side,
And relax,
Relax.
Feel the gentle rhythm of your breath,
A reminder of the life force that flows through you now.
With each inhale,
Welcome love,
And with each exhale,
Release any tension or self-doubt.
Picture a garden within the heart,
Beginning to bloom,
Flowers beginning to grow.
Watch them begin to open,
A symbol of your heart opening now,
A gift to you and the whole world.
Mentally stroll through this inner garden,
And appreciate the unique beauty of each blossom,
Each of these representing a part of you.
Kindness,
Resilience,
Creativity,
Bask in this glow of self-compassion and love.
And now we will begin,
Affirmations.
Repeat after me,
Aloud or in your mind.
I am deserving of love.
I am enough.
I embrace my flaws as part of my unique beauty.
I am deserving of love.
I am enough.
I embrace my flaws as part of my unique beauty.
I am deserving of love.
I am enough.
I embrace my flaws as part of my unique beauty.
And now release the affirmation,
But allow it to continue to resonate in your heart without effort.
Let them whisper to you as you drift off into a beautiful,
Recuperative,
Well-deserved sleep.
