Sawubona:“I See You”

This guided practice is inspired by the South African greeting, Sawubona which means “we see you” (or "I see you" from the collective/communal "I"). Sawubona is the gift of bringing our full attention to another person and seeing them in the fullness of their humanity. It is to greet someone with authentic caring beyond appearances and circumstances, valuing them and accepting them as they are. The practice invites you to truly and deeply see, hear, and feel another person. It can also be a self-compassion practice to meet and see yourself with greater love and care.

Beautiful, felt such a strong connection to others through doing this meditation which came from deep inside my heart ❤️ 🙏

What a beautiful and affirming meditation! I was familiar with Ubuntu, but not Sawubona, what a lovely word / way of being. My energy feels lighter, while also being rooted in deeper intentionality! Thank you so much!

You have a lovely voice and the wisdom you share is deeply healing. Happy you’re here on insight timer.
