A guided meditation for holding space for yourself. This calm and gentle guided meditation will lead you into a place where you hold space for yourself. Many people practice holding space for others. To be there for them. Showing compassion. Being non-judgmental and present. We can often find it hard to hold space for ourselves. We may simply not have the time. We might push away the thought that we need or deserve it. But we cannot truly hold space for others without holding space for ourselves. In this meditation. I will lead you into showing up and being present and compassionate toward ourselves. It can be done before sleep. Or any time when you have a few minutes and will not be disturbed. First, Sit or lay down. And make yourself as comfortable as possible. Remember that this time is for you. And you deserve it. A space of quiet and relaxation. Gently close your eyes. And take a slow deep breath in and out. Once more. Breathing in deeply. And then exhaling slowly. That's good. With each breath. Allow your body to soften. Your mind to settle. And your heart to open. This is a moment where you do not need to do anything. Be anything, Or fix anything. Simply allow yourself to be. Feel the gentle rise and fall of your breath. With each inhale. Imagine kindness as a palpable thing. That can be seen and touched. Warm. Soft and healing. Like sheltering wings. With each exhale. Release any tension. Any expectations. Any burdens that are not yours to carry right now. Bring your awareness to the space around you. Feel how the air touches your skin. How the surface you are sitting or laying on. Supports you. Let compassion and kindness hold you. Just as you are. In this moment. It knows you. And loves you. And does not charge. It is a clear and directed love. That only wishes to heal and support you. Allow the power and healing to embrace you. Feel it sinking into you. In closing you. Wrapping you in kindness. This is just for you. You give this to others. Now accepted for yourself. Hold space for yourself. Hold space for all that you are feeling. Without judgment. And without resistance. Simply allow. Simply be within this moment of caring for yourself. If thoughts arise. Acknowledge them and see if you can step outside of them. And just observe them. Say to yourself, That's a thought. And so is this. Now just return to the breath. Feel the warmth and kindness within your heart, Like a glowing ember. Know that you are enough. Just as you are. Let yourself rest in this space of acceptance, Of kindness. Deep and unconditional self-compassion. Take a few more gentle breaths. Feeling lighter. More at peace. When you are ready, Slowly bring awareness back to your surroundings. And when you feel ready. Open your eyes. Carry this sense of openness and peace with you. Knowing you can return to this space. Whenever you need. You are held. You are supported.
