Welcome to this yoga nidra practice for self-acceptance.
Yoga nidra is also called yogic sleep.
It is a conscious way to rest.
Lie down on your back,
Finding a comfortable position,
Let your arms rest alongside your body,
Make sure you are warm and supported,
Allow the eyes to gently close,
There's nothing to achieve,
You cannot do this wrong,
Simply notice,
Be open and allow whatever arises to be there.
Take a moment to fully arrive here,
Feel the ground as you lie on your back,
Notice the way your body is being held,
Let the weight of your body surrender into the earth.
I invite you to set an intention as sankalpa for this practice,
The intention of self-acceptance.
You may just spread this word within of self-acceptance or you might tell yourself some phrases or words,
I accept myself just as I am.
May I embrace myself fully,
I remember that I am enough,
Plant the intention of self-acceptance in your heart like a seed,
Bring your awareness to your breath,
There's no need to change it,
Simply notice it,
Observe the gentle rise and fall,
Let your breath invite you into stillness,
A stillness where nothing needs to be done,
You are simply here,
Through your breath you allow yourself to soften,
Now gently bring your awareness to the center of your chest,
Your heart space,
Begin to imagine a warm glowing light within your heart,
This light radiates warmth and brightness,
It feels gentle,
Steady and nourishing.
With every breath,
Allow this light to grow brighter and warmer,
Let this warm light fill every corner of your heart,
Warming and softening it.
As the light grows bigger,
Brighter,
Warmer,
Feel the warm glowing light wants to spread further,
Feel the light expanding into your chest,
Up through the back of the neck,
Let it spread to the back of your head,
The sides of your head and your ears,
Gently bring this light to your forehead,
Your eyebrows,
Eyes,
Cheeks,
Nose,
Lips,
Jaw,
Let the warm glowing light spread to your throat,
To the base of your neck,
Feel the light spreading into the shoulders,
Radiating down the arms,
Through the elbows,
Into the wrists,
Hands and fingertips,
As you imagine them glowing in this warm bright light,
Allow the light to move down into your belly,
To the upper back,
Down the spine,
To the mid-back and the lower back,
Feel your glowing radiating spine,
The light moves into the pelvis,
Hips,
Buttocks and pelvis floor,
It radiates slowly down the legs,
Thighs,
Knees,
Calves,
Ankles,
Feet and each toe.
Now your entire body is filled with this radiant loving light,
Feel the whole body bright,
Warm,
Glowing,
It glows from within,
Every cell is gently illuminated.
Now imagine the light flowing out from the soles of your feet,
Creating a soft circle of light all around your body,
You are now held in this circle of light,
Safe,
Supported,
Surrounded by love and acceptance.
Imagine this glowing radiating warm loving light around you,
Creating a soft circle and rest in this fullness for a moment.
