Hello.
Thank you for being here.
Thank you for showing up for yourself with love,
Time and presence.
It's okay to feel lonely.
There's a reason you're feeling this way.
Let's start by focusing on your breath as it is,
Right now.
Observe what your breath is currently like.
Is it slow or fast paced?
Is it short or long?
Is it soft,
Calm or deep?
Describe your breath to yourself in the next 15 seconds.
What do you feel in your body?
Is anywhere speaking louder than others?
Where is the feeling in your physical body and can you describe the physical feeling?
This could be something such as tingling,
Pressure,
Tenseness,
Pain,
Lightness or however else you want to describe it.
Can you describe your emotions?
Use as many words as you like.
Describe your own emotions,
Only your own.
This is precious time with yourself to be with you.
It's okay if you can't describe them too.
Here are some examples that you might want to choose from.
Lonely,
Hopeless,
Distant,
Scared,
Sad,
Upset or shocked.
Use the next 30 seconds to describe to yourself what emotions you are feeling.
Now do you remember when you started to feel this way?
What happened and can you explain this?
This could have been an action,
A person,
A place or a thought.
The thought could have been critical,
Cruel,
Shaming or belittling.
What brought this about?
Here's a timed one minute to express what happened.
Now what do you need?
Can you think of one,
Two or three loving things that can help you right now,
That you can do for yourself?
This could be placing your hand on your arm,
On your heart,
On your belly or giving yourself a hug,
Hugging a stuffed toy,
Resting,
Taking calm loving breaths with yourself,
Journaling or something else.
What are some things that you can do right now or throughout the day that are self-loving?
Thank you for being here today and spending time with yourself and honouring your feelings.
Offering ourselves presence is a really beautiful thing.
Wishing you the loveliest day on the rest of your journey.
