Expanding Safety And Love In Pregnancy

Begin by finding yourself in a comfortable seat or perhaps in a place where you can lie down comfortably,

Just taking your time to get settled,

Taking the time to slow down.

And once you've landed,

Gently soften or close your eyes and begin to take some deep breaths.

Inhaling through your nose,

Exhaling through your mouth.

As you continue to breathe deeply and slowly,

Bring your attention to your body.

Become aware of the sensations in your body and the space you occupy.

Allow yourself to sink deeper into a state of relaxation with each breath,

Using your exhale to sink and relax.

Now bring your attention to your belly.

Visualize your baby growing inside of you.

Imagine a warm and loving light radiating from your heart,

Spreading through your entire body and reaching your baby.

See this light enveloping your baby with love and with warmth.

As you continue to visualize this light,

Allow any worries or fears you may have about your pregnancy.

Simply slip away.

Replace those thoughts with positive affirmations.

My baby is healthy and strong.

I am capable of giving birth to my baby safely and with ease.

My baby is healthy and strong.

I am capable of giving birth to my baby safely and with ease.

Take a few more deep breaths and visualize yourself in a peaceful,

Serene environment.

Imagine yourself surrounded by nature or in a favorite place where you feel happy and at ease.

As you continue to breathe deeply,

Allow yourself to sink deeper into a state of relaxation.

Take a moment to appreciate the miracle of pregnancy and the connection you have with your growing baby.

Beginning now to come back to your surroundings,

Noticing any sounds in the room you're in,

Any sounds from the distance.

Notice any aromas or scents in your space.

Bring some gentle movement into your fingers and toes.

And whenever you are ready,

You can gently open your eyes and just remembering to carry this feeling of peace and relaxation with you as you go about your day.
