You,
The Beloved,
The One,
The Authentic Self.
This contemplation is sourced from my book,
You,
The Beloved,
The One,
Welcome Home.
It invites the listener to enter a healing space of core self-acceptance and love.
Find a quiet spot where you can relax undisturbed for around 10 minutes.
Make yourself comfortable either sitting or lying down.
Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths,
Releasing any tension as you exhale.
Just relax and listen to my voice.
And now we begin a beautiful meeting with the real you,
Your authentic self.
In each heart,
There is an inner knowing of wisdom and truth.
Each of us is engaged in a wonderful unfolding of undreamed-of potential.
The authentic you is the you that is found at your absolute core,
The real you.
It is the you you were born as,
Where all the beauty lives and all the love comes from.
The you who knows who you truly are,
The eternal beloved who merges with the people,
The forest,
The animals,
The birds,
The oceans,
And the ancestors.
The wonderful thing is that the real you is perfect,
Just the way it is.
It can never be destroyed,
And it doesn't need fixing,
Mending,
Or understanding.
The authentic you is absolutely intact now,
Always was,
And forever will be.
It is the you that existed before and will remain when life's pleasures and dramas have passed away.
It is the you that requires you to be real,
Know that you already have everything you need to live in this world as the authentic you.
The eternal beloved is what you really are,
And it is always fully accessible to you beyond concepts and ever-changing thoughts and feelings.
It's your extraordinary,
Perfect awareness.
It is your innate birthright.
You are already more than you could ever dream of.
You have everything,
Are everything,
You thought you wanted already.
The very thing you are looking for is actually present with you all the time.
You constantly search for happiness,
Success,
Love,
Everything outside of yourself.
But what you are trying to find is what you already are.
So take a few moments now to really connect with the real you,
Your authentic self.
Simply relax into yourself right now in this moment and feel the power of your own presence.
It's near as in touching,
Seeing,
Breathing,
Tasting,
Or hearing.
Be with yourself right now in this moment.
Merging with your real beauty is possible any time,
Any place.
So be with yourself right now in this moment,
Which blends into all moments forever.
Being the real you is easy.
It requires no effort.
Embrace yourself with appreciation,
Gratitude,
And acceptance as you are beautiful and perfect right now and absolutely ready to love yourself.
Remain a while with the deepest of all connections and know that the most tender,
Beautiful,
And honest relationship you can ever have is with the real you,
Your authentic self.
You,
The eternal beloved,
Welcome home.
Just take a short time now to bathe in this space,
Knowing that you can return and reconnect here any time you choose.
Remember,
You are already always here,
As this is your natural state.
When you are ready,
Slowly open your eyes and gently observe your surroundings as witnessed by your authentic self.
