Self-Esteem,
Confidence and Motivation Part 2.
Confidence This is the second part in a three series to help increase your self-esteem,
Boost your confidence and motivate you by letting your mind create what is best.
You can use this meditation with a bloodstone crystal and cedarwood and orange essential oils.
Getting comfortable now?
Ensuring a nice and easy transition into stillness?
Beginning to focus on your intention to go deep within as you listen to my voice.
And whenever you feel the desire to let it be easy,
It could be then that you decide to gently let your eyes close as if nothing can distract you now.
So many paths lead to ease and comfort that it becomes a matter of choosing one that can take you there.
Deep into that state of ease that goes so deep that it surprises even you.
And perhaps if you would,
Imagine a lovely lazy sense of comfort briefly noticeable around your feet.
Maybe light or colour is part of this.
Or maybe you feel a sensation.
Or imagine the scent of cedarwood,
Even orange.
That's right.
And it might be now that you begin to really relax as you draw that sense of comfort and ease throughout your body.
Taking as much time as you need to allow this beautiful sensation of relaxation to gently merge with your feet.
And work its way into each and every cell of your body.
Going deep.
I wonder at which point you feel as if right now nothing matters but the ease you feel.
And how deep you can reach into the stillness.
Delving deeper and deeper into your own experience.
How long it takes for your breathing to slow down.
Matching the easy pace with which your body is entering a deep state of ease is not really important.
Because it could be quite quick for you.
And allowing yourself to drift deeper into this beautiful process might already reveal a great benefit.
Because the deeper you go,
The better you feel.
Perhaps,
If you would,
Letting your breath carry out what you wish to release.
Putting aside any intrusive thoughts.
Letting them go off on their own.
No engagement necessary,
As you do not have to play any part in the flow of your thoughts.
Merely beginning to witness that each in-breath brings with it all that you need.
Could it be that your subconscious mind is already starting to come up with all the solutions that you need to bring out that confident you?
Or is it simply becoming obvious that there is no limit to how much confidence you can grow into?
You could go really deep now.
Or you could just sit back and relax and notice what you are experiencing as you allow that beautiful feeling to move into all levels of your being.
Who knows if you could just implement the obvious to bring about total confidence.
Or if you could allow your subconscious mind to come up with something that is uniquely relevant to you as you continue to drift deeper and deeper into your own experience.
You may sense that you can still relax to a much deeper state.
And so it is easy to imagine that you are standing at the top of a beautiful safe staircase that leads to a very peaceful place in the calmest recesses of your mind.
Born of your imagination,
These stairs can be exactly as you would like them to be.
Perhaps having a little fun as you create a staircase where your feet can safely and lightly tread,
Following your mind down to that peaceful place where it all becomes clear.
In a moment,
I'll begin counting down from 5 to 1 as you step down your staircase at a pace that works for you,
With each count letting yourself go just that little bit deeper,
Now that you understand that the deeper you go,
The better you feel.
And counting now 5,
Knowing with certainty that a wonderful experience awaits you,
Preparing your mind and body to relax even more.
4.
Understanding that you are always guarded and guided and asking for that protection now,
Because you know that it is there.
3.
Deeper and deeper,
Setting your intention to find that most confident part of you,
Bringing it into the light.
2.
And with everything in place to support you,
You can just enter that safe place on the next count and 1.
So very deeply relaxed.
So connected.
I don't know which of your senses you connect to first here,
In this somewhat magical place.
Is it your sight?
Or is it simply that you are aware of its ability to transmute negative energy,
To purify what can be released and to protect?
It might be now that you realize exactly how protected you are,
Now that you notice how it feels to be in this place.
Could that be the scent of orange,
With a hint of cedarwood as you gently breathe in what is needed?
Take a moment now to settle into this place and to make it perfect for you,
Perhaps as you become aware of a really good feeling wanting to be noticed deep inside of you.
You may even be aware that the more you relax into this state,
The more you benefit.
And as you drift deeper and deeper into your own experience,
Relaxing through the levels of your consciousness,
You can start paying attention to some special qualities you have that may have gone unnoticed until now.
And it could be a good idea to be reminded of your unique strengths and abilities,
As these have improved over time,
Perhaps without you noticing.
Clearly recognizing these aspects of you now,
Perhaps one quality after the other,
Or maybe all of them at the same time may be revealed to you.
And you can start appreciating now that these deserve a good level of confidence in yourself.
For a moment,
Allow yourself to connect with your unique strengths and abilities,
Perhaps even recognizing new ones,
As my voice waits here for you to find it all.
As you gently allow my voice to reach you again,
It would be really good for you to always be reminded of the courage you showed in walking that path that led you here.
So look around there to find a reminder,
A stone of courage,
And now pick up that stone and hold it in your left hand,
Letting it be your reality,
Your gentle reminder that you are enough.
Brave and confident and going forward each time you touch this stone of courage,
The confident feeling that is now an integral part of you will rush right back up to meet you,
Leaving you feeling revitalized,
Ready for what life has to offer.
There is nothing really you have to do right now,
Other than to start allowing this great feeling of confidence to develop within you.
Let this confident you step forward and show you how to handle situations with a new sense of self-assurance.
It might be that you have realized already that you have a built-in mechanism that tells you exactly when you are doing everything right,
Just like any confident person,
Using your special and unique abilities to handle life and to choose wisely.
In every moment,
Tapping into that wisdom and courage and self-assured confidence as you experience being guided from deep within,
Making the right decisions in a relaxed,
Confident manner.
You are a powerful creator and your choices reflect how you want to live and how you want to feel.
Isn't it great to be reminded of how much knowledge you have acquired,
Allowing you to steadily gain confidence as you easily move through your world,
Letting in experiences and people who are attracted to the beautiful truth shining through you.
If you will,
See yourself meeting people,
Notice how your interest in them is mirrored back to you,
As people become curious about what shines from deep within you.
Sensing this strength and courageous confidence,
Notice how confident you are in your ability to contribute something of yourself to those people.
And be aware how much you are enjoying that.
It feels good,
Doesn't it?
The new,
Independent,
Confident you.
And in a moment you will begin to notice that you possess an inner guidance which brings this gentle confidence in its wake,
Giving birth to a constant stream of positive thoughts as you grow and expand further into a confident,
Powerful person.
So let us look at you in a little while from now,
That you that has already started benefiting from all you have learned.
Just look at the confidence of that you right here in front of you.
And just because you can move forward and melt into that you,
You are now the one feeling that confident.
But there is another you,
One that has moved beyond and has firmly integrated it all.
Look at how much confidence radiates from your smile.
Or do you see it in the light of your eyes,
Sensing the inner changes,
The calm confidence that is so attractive.
Now step into that you and just feel that surge of quiet confidence that is now yours from this day forward.
Take a little time for yourself as my voice leaves you here for now,
Just enjoy and perhaps tiptoe over to the horizon of opportunity and see what might be possible for you now.
And gently allowing yourself to hear my voice again,
Assured that all is well and that going forward there is a confident you to lead the way.
From now on you might be surprised to find that you are more and more able to see yourself as someone with amazing qualities,
Discovering new ones each day.
Going forward you could be delighted to notice that you are becoming the living embodiment of all those wonderful truths that are now more and more applicable to you.
From this day forward you might increasingly be aware of subtle improvements that are more and more visible in your daily life,
Improving every day in every way.
And now staying beautifully relaxed,
Motivated and comfortable,
The time has come for us to end this session,
So I'd like you to take yourself back to the bottom of the stairs that delivered you into this space.
And in a moment I am going to count from 1 to 5 and as I do so you will feel yourself coming back up your stairs through the levels of your awareness until on the count of 5 when you can open your eyes feeling wide awake,
Fully alert and so much better than before.
And counting now 1,
Beginning to come up now feeling wonderful,
2,
Knowing that from now on you are becoming more confident naturally every day in every way,
3,
As normal sensations flow back into your body and you recognise that your subconscious mind will transfer all this information to the conscious mind in the perfect way,
4,
Getting closer to the state of full awareness,
Allowing your body to begin to shift into movement and 5,
Welcome back.
