Find a quiet and comfortable space where you won't be disturbed.
Sit or lie down in a position that feels relaxed and natural for you.
Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths.
Inhale slowly through your nose,
Hold for a moment then exhale gently through your mouth.
Begin to focus on your breath,
Feeling the cool air entering your nostrils and the warm air leaving.
If your mind starts to wander,
Gently bring your focus back to your breath.
Start repeating these affirmations in your mind,
Synchronizing them with your breath.
Inhale I am,
Exhale worthy of love and respect,
Inhale I am,
Exhale grateful for my unique qualities and talents,
Inhale I am,
Exhale strong and resilient,
Capable of overcoming challenges,
Inhale I am,
Exhale enough just as I am in this moment.
Continue repeating these affirmations for a few minutes,
Allowing them to sink in.
If other positive thoughts come to mind,
Feel free to incorporate them.
Now imagine a warm golden light surrounding your body.
This light represents love,
Acceptance and self-compassion.
Feel it filling every cell of your body,
From the top of your head to the soles of your feet.
As you bask in this warm light,
Repeat these affirmations.
Inhale I am,
Exhale love and appreciate it,
Inhale I am,
Exhale carrying towards myself,
Inhale I am,
Exhale carrying towards myself,
Inhale I am,
Exhale making progress every day.
When you're ready,
Slowly bring your awareness back to your surroundings.
Wiggle your fingers and toes,
Stretch your body and open your eyes.
