Morning Mirror Self-Love Practice

This is a self-compassion guided practice to begin the day with love. All you need is a mirror. A great way to build a positive and authentic relationship with yourself and your body.

Self-love and compassion has changed my life. I remember the first time I looked in the mirror with an intention to love myself. I would like to share this practice with you. In my counseling practice mirror work has become a way to support people with building an authentic relationship with themselves and having breakthroughs. Start the morning with a little love. All you need is a mirror.

Hello,

My name is Randi May.

Today I'm going to invite you to do some mirror work with me,

Taking a moment just to look at your own self,

Connect with your own body,

Connect with your own light,

And connect with your own inner wisdom.

So all you need to do right now is find yourself in front of a mirror.

It could be a long mirror,

It could be a bathroom mirror,

Whatever you decide.

Are you in front of a mirror yet?

Okay,

We're going to begin.

I want you to take a moment to look into the mirror.

Look into those beautiful eyes of yours.

Notice the color,

Shape,

The stories that they could tell.

The joy,

The pain,

The growth,

The love,

The beauty that they have witnessed.

As you look at your eyes,

Take a deep breath in,

Gently and slowly expanding the breath,

And softly and slowly releasing the breath.

I want you to smile.

Look at those cheeks rise and glow,

Smooth,

Wrinkled,

Curved,

Brilliant they are.

The muscles that rise when you choose to smile.

Smiling from the inside out,

Radiating joy and the light of your soul.

I want you to touch your skin.

Feel the warmth of your skin,

The skin that holds this body together,

Its radiant color,

Decadent texture.

Take a deep breath in,

Expanding the breath in the body,

And take a gentle and slow breath out.

Your skin is a divine fabric used by the universe.

Watch your body expand in the mirror as you take a full deep breath in.

And as you breathe out slowly,

Let your shoulders lower with ease.

Feel your body soften.

You just observe your greatest tool,

The gift from the divine,

The breath of life encased in a work of art.

And the work of art is you,

A divine masterpiece.

As you look in the mirror at beautiful you,

Take this moment to say thank you to your body that woke up with you today.

And say I love you as you look into your eyes,

Feel the warmth of your skin.

I love you.

I hope you have a beautiful day and remember that you truly are a divine masterpiece.

Every part of you is lovable,

The ones we can see and the ones we can't.

I hope you have a wonderful day.

Thank you for engaging in self care and self love with Randy May.

Such a beautiful practice! I started with hesitation and discomfort facing myself in the mirror. But after just 4 minutes, I felt love and gratitude looking into my own eyes. Thank you 🙏🏻❤️

Thank you! It is amazing what profound changes can occur in seemingly simple actions we do every day, like gaze at our reflection, when we do those actions with conscious intention. A beautiful guided practice to set the tone for the day.
