Welcome to this guided meditation on speaking your truth.
I invite you to find a comfortable seated position allowing your body to settle and your mind to become present.
Close your eyes and take a deep breath in through your nose.
As you exhale feel yourself becoming grounded in this moment.
Sometimes,
Especially being a woman,
We are afraid to speak up.
We don't want to sound stupid if we have a question or a different opinion at work.
Maybe we want to talk about a topic with our partner and we are afraid of the response.
Maybe we are holding back our opinion because we prefer not to enter into discussions and arguments with friends and family.
But let me tell you,
Not sharing your truth might even affect your behavior and your thinking.
You might behave in a way or say things that aren't true to you.
And only you will have to live with these consequences.
Whenever we do not speak our truth we might feel this limp and constraint in our throat.
We feel a weight on our shoulders and we don't feel like we have integrity to ourselves.
So let's overcome this fear of speaking our truth with this meditation.
Take three deep breaths,
Feeling the energy flowing through the body.
Inhale and exhale through the nose.
Now imagine that with each inhale you are breathing in a warm golden light,
Just like sunshine.
This golden light represents your energy,
Your power and your truth.
As you inhale visualize this golden light filling up your entire body,
Filling up your body with this positive energy.
Starting from your core,
This golden light is spreading outwards through your chest,
Your throat,
Your neck,
Your shoulders,
Into your head and continuing through your arms,
Your hands,
Reaching into your fingertips.
The light reaches your stomach,
Wandering down your legs into your feet.
With each exhale let go of anything that doesn't serve you at this moment.
Now bring your attention to your throat.
Imagine how this light is centered here.
Visualize this golden light empowering you from within.
Now consciously let your mind wander.
What have you been wanting to say?
What truth are you holding back?
What do you need to say?
Allow these thoughts to surface without judging them.
Simply recognize and accept them.
In the silence search within yourself for your truth.
Imagine yourself speaking these words that you've been wanting to share,
Even if they might be difficult or unpopular.
The power to speak your truth comes from within you,
Only within you,
And only you know your truth.
Take a deep breath into your belly,
Feeling the expansion,
Feeling this golden light shining from within,
Shining as your truth.
As you exhale release any remaining tension in your body.
Let go of any fear,
Doubt or hesitation that might be holding you back from speaking your truth.
As you continue to breathe repeat this affirmation silently to yourself.
My voice is my divine gift and I choose to honor it.
My voice is a vessel for my sacred truth and wisdom.
My words have meaning and importance.
Only I know my truth and only I can speak it.
Imagine that your truth is forming on your lips and see these words glowing with power and authenticity.
Remember that your voice is unique,
That your truth is unique.
Imagine yourself speaking your truth clearly and with integrity,
Feeling the weight lifting from your shoulders as you do.
Feel the lump and contraction in your throat disappear.
Let's take three more breaths here.
With each inhale feeling this power,
This golden light filling up your body,
Fueling you to speak your truth.
As we begin to close this meditation repeat this final affirmation silently.
I have the right to express my feelings,
My opinions and my concerns.
My voice is powerful and I use it wisely.
I surround myself with people who support my authentic self.
Speaking my truth brings me freedom and peace.
Only I know my truth.
Only I can speak my truth.
Only I will speak my truth.
Your voice is unique.
Only you can share your own words.
Nobody else can do that for you.
Share your truth and always remember how powerful your voice is and that the power comes from within you.
Carry the sense of empowerment and truth with you.
Slowly begin to deepen your breath,
Bringing awareness back to your body and the room around you.
And when you are ready,
Gently open your eyes.
Thank you for meditating with me and I wish you a great rest of the day.
