Welcome to this meditation on humility and truth.
Begin by finding a comfortable seated position.
Allow your spine to lengthen gently and let your hands rest softly on your lap.
Take a deep,
Slow breath in and exhale fully.
Feel your body arrive here in the present moment.
Nothing to prove,
Nothing to defend,
Just the simplicity of being here,
Breathing.
With each breath,
Allow yourself to settle deeper into this space.
Inhale,
Receiving clarity,
And exhaling,
Releasing tension.
Imagine that beneath you is the steady ground of Mother Earth,
Holding you effortlessly.
You are supported,
You are safe to explore,
Safe to reflect.
Now bring your awareness to this thought,
The willingness to be wrong.
What happens in your body as you hear these words?
Perhaps a little tightening,
Resistance,
Or maybe a sense of openness and curiosity.
There is no need to judge what you feel,
Only notice.
To be human is to evolve,
To learn,
To change our minds.
Once upon a time,
Humans believed the sun revolved around a flat earth.
Yet through inquiry,
Observation,
And sailing around the earth,
Our collective wisdom expanded.
Gently bring to mind something in your life,
A belief,
An opinion,
A perspective that you've held tightly.
It could be about yourself,
Or another person,
Or even the world around you.
Now imagine setting it down.
You don't need to discard it,
Only loosen your grip.
See it resting before you,
As if it were a small object on the ground.
Whisper inwardly,
I am willing to see this differently now.
I am willing to be wrong if truth asks me to change.
Feel the relief in that,
No need to defend or justify,
Just curiosity,
Just openness.
With each breath,
Feel the humility of being a student of life.
Humility is not weakness,
It's strength.
It's strength to say no,
I do not yet know.
It is with courage we learn to listen and evolve.
Let humility flow through your heart now,
A cool stream washing away pride and rigidity.
Feel your chest expand with its spaciousness.
Your mind softens,
Open like the sky after a storm.
In this openness,
Wisdom begins to blossom.
Repeat silently,
I value truth over comfort.
I am learning every day.
Being wrong is not failure,
It's growth.
Let these affirmations settle deep into your being,
Let your breath move through them like wind through tall grass,
Easy,
Effortlessly,
Alive.
As we come towards the end of this meditation,
Bring your awareness back into your body.
Notice the steadiness of your breath,
The clarity of your mind,
The calm within your heart.
Remember,
To admit when we are wrong is not to lose,
It is to expand.
It is to align ourselves with the living truth that everything is always evolving.
Take one final deep breath in,
And exhale with a gentle smile.
When you're ready,
Slowly open your eyes,
Carry this humility with you into your day.
Bring with you the courage to learn,
The grace to listen,
And the wisdom to know that truth is never owned,
Only discovered anew.
Blessings on your journey today,
Namaste.
