Take a slow breath in,
And a soft breath out.
Let your body settle.
Let your mind rest.
Right now,
This is your time.
A moment to remember who you are.
With each inhale,
You feel yourself expand.
With each exhale,
Let go of what no longer serves you.
Place your hand gently over your heart.
Notice the steady rhythm within you.
This is your reminder.
You are alive.
You are worthy.
You are enough.
There is nothing missing from you.
Nothing broken that needs to be fixed.
You are whole,
Exactly as you are.
Let the warmth of your own kindness fill you.
Allow it to wash over every part of you.
From the crown of your head to the tip of your toes.
Whisper to yourself,
I am deserving of love.
I am gentle with myself.
I am safe to be exactly who I am.
Any doubt that arises,
Acknowledge it.
And then,
Let it drift away.
Like a leaf carried down a quiet stream.
You are learning to be your own home.
A place of compassion.
A place of care.
A place of love.
Stay with this feeling a little longer.
Let it root into you.
Let it grow.
And,
When you are ready,
Carry this love with you.
Knowing it has always been here.
And it always will be.
