Loving yourself is an art.
Loving yourself takes practice.
Loving yourself is an act of devotion.
And dear friends,
You are so worth it.
You are so deeply worth it.
And I invite you to take this journey and travel deep inside,
Into the hills and valleys,
Into the contours of your own heart,
So that you can discover for yourself that you are worthy.
You are worthy before you even do anything at all.
And this sense of worthiness is something that many of us struggle with.
We think that we need to earn our worthiness.
We perform.
We achieve.
We try to be the best at this or that.
And dear friends,
Your worthiness is something that you were born with.
That you were born with.
So let your eyes gently close.
Let your lids be heavy.
And take a nice breath.
And let your breath be easy.
Let your breath be easy.
Let your breath be easy.
And let your breath be easy.
Let your breath be easy.
So that your body can relax.
The shoulders can melt down away from your ears.
Every breath invites a gentle softening.
Letting yourself soften and settle,
Sweet friends.
Being gentle with yourself.
And then sink down,
Sink down into the soft valleys of your own heart.
Valleys of your own heart.
Your heart is wise and kind.
Your heart knows,
Recognizes,
And revels in its own essential worthiness.
Let yourself find a comfortable place inside your heart to rest.
Maybe you curl up into a ball like a small child and wrap yourself in the soft,
Gentle sweetness.
Of your own heart.
Or maybe you find a spongy patch of earth in a sunny spot inside your heart and you sprawl out,
Opening yourself to its warmth,
To its welcome.
Letting yourself be nourished.
Letting yourself bathe in your own essential worthiness.
And I know that resistance may arise.
This is natural.
You can simply include it.
Thoughts of the things that you must do to be worthy.
And for now,
My invitation to you,
Dear friends,
Is to set those resistances aside and relax into the embrace of your own worthiness.
You were born worthy.
You arrived here in this world as a sacred,
Worthy being.
You do not need to do anything to earn this worthiness.
So take a few minutes here.
Resting one or both hands upon your beautiful heart and say to yourself in a sweet whisper,
I am worthy.
I am worthy.
I am worthy.
I am worthy.
I am worthy.
And let yourself smile down upon yourself as you humbly proclaim,
Embody,
Stand in your own inherent worthiness.
For this is your nature,
Your own wise,
Wonderful,
Deeply good nature.
This is a whisper echoing up from your soul.
Resting into the silent space of worthiness that is your nature.
Resting into the silent space of worthiness that is your nature.
Feel the weight of your own gentle hands on your heart and say to yourself,
I am worthy.
I am worthy.
I am worthy.
And from this moment on,
This experience of your own essential worthiness will continue to blossom and grow.
And as you walk in the world,
As you place your face in the sun or take care of your life,
You will experience a freshly enlivened sense of self-worth.
And the more you speak to yourself with kindness and affirm,
I am worthy.
I am worthy.
And the more you speak to yourself with kindness and affirm,
I am worthy.
I am worthy.
I am worthy.
And the more you speak to yourself with kindness and affirm,
I am worthy.
The more your life will flow with ease and grace,
Ease and grace.
So take a deep breath in and then let your eyes open and see the world anew.
See through the eyes of worthiness.
