Hello and thank you for joining me for today's guided meditation on learning to love yourself each step of the way.

Life is a beautiful thing,

A journey towards a numberless amount of destinations of love,

Peace,

Light,

Hope.

As we reach each destination,

There is yet another we look towards,

And yet another and another.

Yet it is not the destination alone that we seek,

It is each and every step along the way.

It is the love,

It is the laughter,

It's the excitement,

It is the calm feeling that radiates from inside the heart.

It is acceptance,

It is the glow you see around others,

It's the glow you see around yourself,

It is the breath you take each morning,

It is the time you spend with your friends,

It is holding a newborn child,

It is looking into the eyes of one you love,

It is feeling the connection of souls who share the same vibration of energy as you do,

It is being understood,

It is awakening to your higher purpose,

It is learning how to live as your soulful self,

Your higher self,

Your truthful self,

It is learning how to observe all things from a place of love,

It is all feelings of love and light,

Peace,

Clarity,

Calm,

Joy,

And knowing.

The journey of life is full of these loving and beautiful steps along the way.

We step into them,

We become them for that moment,

And they are sacred and precious.

The journey of life is also full of other moments,

Moments that may feel confusing,

Frustrating,

Complicated,

Even painful,

Moments that may make you question your soul and life purpose,

Moments that are challenging,

Moments of hurt,

Moments of loss,

Of jealousy,

Anger,

Contempt,

Even anguish,

Moments of anxiousness,

Moments of depression,

Moments when the world may seem very,

Very dark,

And you feel unsure how to find your light again.

The journey of life is full of emotions and triggers wrapped in different colors and flavors and experiences.

Each of them bring a lesson with them for us to learn.

Each of them bringing something that will help your journey expand and grow through wisdom,

Understanding,

And compassion.

It is full of lessons and learning.

Learning how to love others,

Learning how to love yourself,

Learning how to forgive others,

Learning how to forgive yourself,

Learning how to respond from a loving place rather than reacting from a place of fear,

Learning that you have the strength to get back up after you fall,

Learning that through it all you are being given opportunity after opportunity for growth and the most beautiful expansion of yourself.

We expand through life.

We grow through life as we learn and go through life.

And as we grow,

We ponder this question,

What if everything along the way of our journey is for our greatest good?

Now I invite you to find a comfortable position and close your eyes as we go deeper into the journey we call life.

Take a deep breath in and let it go.

Take another long deep breath in.

Hold.

Now let it go.

With this next breath,

Imagine a beautiful white light coming down from above,

Coming to the crown of your head,

Coming down through,

Eyes down into your throat and heart space opening all the way through the belly.

This beautiful white light coming down all the way through the crown of your head,

All the way down your spine,

Into your throat and heart space,

Expanding into your belly,

Down through the root chakra.

And as you exhale this beautiful breath of light,

I want you to just allow it to breathe all the way through the legs and out into the ground below you.

This next breath we will take focusing on the breath of this beautiful light coming back up from the ground below where you sit.

Imagine that breath coming back up through the body and filling the space of every cell in your body,

Anchoring with it love.

Into every area of your body,

Every space of your body,

Up into the belly,

Expanding and loving.

Now exhale up and out of the crown.

Allow yourself to sit with the feelings of being grounded and surrounded in love as you continue to inhale and exhale.

Allow yourself to sit with the feelings of being grounded and surrounded in love as you continue to inhale and exhale.

Allow yourself to feel surrounded.

Allow yourself to feel grounded and surrounded in light,

Wrapping you in its warm embrace,

Filling your entire being with this warm light of love.

Breathe it in and breathe it out.

And surrounding in love as you continue to feel anchored in this love.

Imagine that your spirit is gently lifting up and out of your physical body.

It is moving above ever so gently so that you are no longer sitting inside of your body.

You are still a part of this beautiful being of existence but you are pulling up and out of your body so that you can see your life and this journey of your life from a new perspective,

A higher perspective,

Purposeful perspective,

Unattached from any of the emotions that came with each experience.

Simply just being and observing and loving.

You see your body there below you,

This beautiful being of physical matter,

Compressed through physical energy,

Holding on to so many of these moments of life,

Creating your story,

Creating a meaning behind each story as you search for purpose and for understanding and for clarity.

Now take a deep breath in and imagine yourself lifting even a higher above your body so that now you look down and from this perspective you can see the energy flowing in and out of your body.

You see light coming in the form of that energy.

It's coming from within your body.

As you look more closely from this new perspective,

You notice all of these little tiny individual lights shining from within your body.

Some areas of your body seem to have more light than other areas.

Some of the lights are glowing brighter and some of the light seem quite dark and dim,

Almost as if they could blink off at any moment.

Some lights are colored with great intensity and vibrancy.

Others are not.

And you sit with it for a moment,

Pondering the meaning of these lights shining through and around your body,

Weaving around and around inside your physical body,

Weaving through your organs,

Through every cell of your body,

Every fiber,

Every tissue and bone.

As you look more closely,

You see that each light has a memory playing over and over inside of it,

A memory that came with a strong emotion attached to it.

You notice that some of these lights within you shine brighter and there is happiness and joy,

Peace and love attached to them.

But some of the lights that seem to have dim are filled with sadness,

Loneliness,

Pain,

Fear,

Guilt and shame.

Now take a deep breath in and let it go.

With this next breath in,

I want you to imagine you are still sitting above your physical body and you are sitting within a higher vibration of energy,

The highest vibration,

The vibration of love.

It surrounds you,

The most beautiful light and energy.

This beautiful highest vibration is love.

You are in this light of love.

You are this love.

You breathe into it.

And as you exhale that breath,

You breathe this loving light into your physical body,

Breathing it into your body,

Allowing the light to bring more connection and energy of love into your body.

With each breath from this place of love,

You are filling your entire physical being,

Your physical body,

With this light of love and you begin to notice something magical happen.

You realize that the small lights that you've seen radiating from within your body are not are not sitting there alone by themselves.

They are connected to each other,

Almost like a string of lights.

Every one of these lights are connecting to the next,

Feeding more energy into the next,

Stringing together your light,

Your energy,

Stringing together and connecting by this energy that is connected above,

Even where you sit,

As well as below where your body sits.

You are surrounded.

You are grounded in this light of love.

And as you continue to take each breath of this love,

You notice each light within you glowing brighter and brighter.

This light of love is stringing together every moment and emotion of your life.

The moments that you feel have defined you,

The moments that have stayed with you,

The moments that have felt the most beautiful and the moments that have felt the most painful.

They are all connected.

Now breathe this love into the lights again.

Breathe this love into the lights within your body.

Focus on the areas in your body where there is dimness or tension.

Breathe love into these areas.

Surround them with this love and understanding and compassion.

Allow them space to breathe in the love.

Allow them to be filled with love and light for they are seen,

They are understood,

And each of them have value.

Breathe love into them and allow them to shine more brightly.

Each moment is connected.

Each moment connects you to the next.

Each moment and each step.

As you sit from this loving place and just breathe love into each moment and memory,

Every step of this journey of your life,

Just fill it with this breath of love and light and focus on connecting each of those lights and breathing love into each of these lights.

From this position,

Looking down on your physical body with this beautiful feeling of love surrounding and grounding you,

There is a knowing that comes,

A knowing that this is all for your greatest good.

Every moment is for your greatest good.

It is all for you to find that beautiful connection through love,

To rise above that chaos and that fire and find the light of love time and time and time to connect with your higher self,

To see yourself through the vibration of love,

To live from the vibration of love as often as you possibly can,

And to know that when you get off balance and you fall,

You have the opportunity to love into yourself so much,

To help yourself get back up and keep going.

Every step of the journey of life plays a beautiful and important part,

The view.

Now imagine your spirit just beautifully gently coming back down into your physical body.

Breathe into the light again,

Breathe into the areas of tension,

Breathe love into them and sit with that space.

Sit here and feel this love.

Every step of the journey of life plays an important part.

Remember when you were looking down into your physical body from above,

Remember seeing the light within you,

Remember seeing the lights that were dimmer,

Remember how it felt to breathe love into those areas of your body.

Let's do that now.

Let's breathe into those areas of our body,

Areas of tension and pain,

Breathe love into them.

Allow yourself the grace to be.

Allow yourself the grace to be.

Just be.

Allow yourself the grace to learn.

Allow yourself the grace to grow.

And although growth may look messy at times,

Remember that what growth needs more than anything else is to be loved into,

To be seen,

To be understood.

That's where you'll really grow.

Allow yourself to forgive.

Allow yourself to live in peace.

Allow yourself to breathe in love and show up from that vibration of love every step of the way.

Love into yourself when you feel off balance.

Love into yourself when you feel the weight pulling you down.

Love into yourself when you feel the ache in your heart.

Love into yourself when you feel alone.

Love into yourself when you feel sadness starting to take over.

Each of these moments and emotions are here to teach you.

Use them to practice to practice loving into each of these moments.

Use them to learn and grow and realize that these moments are connected to your greatness.

The light that shines so brightly inside and outside of you.

Your light.

Others will see this.

They will feel it.

And this light within you will help others know that they too can breathe in love and grow through each step of their own journey.

Another deep breath in.

Allow this light to come into your body and fill every space of it.

Fill your core and allow the light to ground you and surround you.

And let out that breath slowly as you take a step forward into the next step in your journey of life.

It is all a part of the journey.

A beautiful intrinsic weaving of energy that is continuously being guided into the direction of your emotions and understanding.

You have so much power and control over the creation of your life for you are the creator of your life's experiences.

You are the creator of your reactions and responses to everything that happens in your journey of life.

It is a beautiful superpower that you may not have fully grasped yet.

One that will expand as you continue to focus on it.

So as you sit in a crossroad on the journey of your life or you sit in a moment that feels heavy,

The light above and the light below and draw strength from it.

Love into your body.

Love into the experience.

Love into the moment.

Love yourself every step of the way.

For it isn't about the final destination.

It is about each step.

Each step grounded and surrounded in love.
