Sit comfortably,
Either on a chair with your feet planted firmly on the ground,
Or on a cushion with your legs crossed beneath you.
Gently close your eyes and take a deep,
Intentional breath in through your nose,
Filling your lungs completely.
Now,
Slowly exhale through your mouth,
Letting go of any tension you may be holding.
Feel your shoulders gently drop,
Your jaw unclench,
And your body begin to soften into relaxation.
This moment is yours.
A sacred pause to connect with yourself.
A time to listen,
To be present,
And to lead with the wisdom of your heart.
As you continue breathing,
Allow yourself time to settle,
Knowing that there is nowhere else you need to be but anchored here in this beautiful present moment.
As I pause speaking,
Allow yourself to really anchor here and take three deep,
Purposeful breaths with intention to finding your inner leader.
Place one or both of your hands over your heart and feel the warmth of your touch and the gentle rhythm of your heartbeat beneath your palm.
Notice its steady presence,
Always guiding,
Always supporting you.
With each inhale,
Imagine drawing in pure,
Nourishing energy,
Filling your heart with love,
Strength,
And wisdom.
With each exhale,
Release anything that no longer serves you,
Tension,
Self-doubt,
Fear,
Or hesitation.
Breathe in deeply,
Filling your heart space with light.
Breathe out slowly,
Letting go of anything heavy.
Let your breath be an anchor,
A bridge between your mind and your heart.
You are safe,
You are supported,
And you are enough,
Exactly as you are.
Now bring your awareness to the center of your chest.
Picture a soft,
Beautiful golden light beginning to glow from within.
This light is the essence of your inner leader,
A part of you that leads with courage,
Compassion,
And clarity.
With each breath,
This light grows stronger,
Expanding outward,
Filling your entire body with warmth,
Confidence,
And love.
Feel it radiating from your chest,
Moving through your arms,
Down to your fingertips,
Through your legs,
And out to the tips of your toes.
As this golden light expands,
Silently repeat to yourself,
I trust my heart's wisdom.
Feel the truth of these words settle into your being.
I lead with authenticity and love.
Allow this affirmation to fill you with confidence and purpose.
I honor my journey and the path ahead.
Recognize the strength and wisdom you already hold within.
Breathe deeply,
Allowing these affirmations to take root in your heart.
Let them settle into your soul.
Sit in this space of deep connection,
Allowing yourself to simply be.
To feel the fullness of your heart's energy,
The guidance of your inner leader,
And the general assurance that all is unfolding exactly as it should.
When you are ready,
Take a final deep breath in,
And as you exhale slowly,
Bring your awareness back to the room.
Wiggle your fingers and toes,
Roll your shoulders gently,
And when you're ready,
Softly open your eyes,
Carrying this heart-centered presence with you as you move forward into your day.
You are whole.
You are worthy.
You are exactly where you need to be.
You are whole.
