Welcome,
This is a guided meditation,
A loving commitment to yourself.
Take this time just for yourself,
A moment of quiet,
Of presence,
Of devotion.
Find a comfortable position,
Either sitting or lying down,
And begin to let your body settle.
Allow your shoulders to drop,
Your jaw to soften,
And your hands to rest naturally.
Take a slow,
Deep breath in,
And a long,
Gentle breath out.
With every exhale,
Feel the weight of your day releasing.
This is your time,
Your space,
Your sanctuary.
Bring your awareness to your breath.
Notice its rhythm without changing it.
Feel the rise and fall of your chest,
The gentle expansion and contraction.
Imagine roots growing from your body,
Grounding you into the earth.
These roots are steady,
Strong,
Unshakable,
Holding you safe and supported.
With every inhale,
Breathe in stability and nourishment.
With every exhale,
Release what no longer serves you.
Bring your attention to your heart center.
Place one hand gently over your heart,
And feel its warmth,
Its steady beat.
This heart has carried you through so much.
It deserves gratitude.
Whisper softly to your heart,
Thank you.
With each inhale,
Imagine your heart glowing with golden light.
With each exhale,
Let that light expand,
Filling your chest,
Your whole body,
Your whole being.
This is the light of love,
Your own love,
Rising within you.
In this safe and loving space,
I invite you to silently repeat these vows to yourself.
As if you are making a sacred commitment to your soul.
I promise to care for my body with rest,
Nourishment,
And kindness.
I promise to speak to myself with compassion,
Even when I stumble.
I promise to honor my needs and listen to my inner voice.
I promise to celebrate myself for every step,
Every effort,
And every victory.
I promise to never abandon myself.
I choose me again and again.
Take a deep breath,
And let these words settle into your heart.
Feel the truth of them rooting into your being,
Like seeds planted in fertile soil.
Visualize yourself standing tall,
Radiant,
And strong,
Wrapped in your own loving embrace.
See yourself walking forward in life with this commitment shining from within,
Guiding your choices,
And shaping your days.
Know that you are your own safe place,
Your own partner,
Your own great love story.
Take one last deep breath in,
And a slow,
Steady breath out.
When you're ready,
Gently wiggle your fingers and toes,
Bringing awareness back to your body.
Softly open your eyes,
Carrying with you the sacred vow of self-love and self-commitment.
You are whole.
You are worthy.
You are loved by you.
Namaste.
