Becoming The One Who Chooses Herself

Hi love,

I'm Teresa.

Welcome to the final meditation in the Permission to Expand series.

This is a practice of identity,

Of stepping into the version of yourself who chooses your own needs,

Desires,

And rhythm with softness and sovereignty.

Let your breath slow,

Let your body settle,

Feel the warmth of your own presence.

Now,

Imagine standing at the edge of a path,

A new path,

Wide and open,

Lined with possibility.

On this path lives the version of you who chooses themselves.

They do not shrink.

They do not over-explain.

They do not negotiate their worth.

They do not abandon their longing to keep others comfortable.

They are whole.

They are grounded.

And they are steady in their own truth.

See them in front of you.

Notice how they stand,

Their posture,

Their openness,

Their ease.

Notice the calm in their face,

The softness in their shoulders,

The clarity in their chest.

This is not a future self.

This is a remembered self.

The version of you that trauma,

Survival,

And conditioning asked to step aside.

But they never left.

Step closer to them.

Feel the warmth of their presence.

And when you're ready,

Merge with them.

Step gently into the version of you who chooses yourself.

Feel their breath become your breath.

Their steadiness become your steadiness.

Their clarity become your clarity.

Whisper inside,

I choose myself now.

Feel the truth settle into your bones.

Again,

I choose myself through softness.

Feel the warmth in your chest.

And one more time,

I choose myself as a way of life.

Let that identity land.

Let it wrap around you.

Let it become your foundation.

You are not stepping into a new year.

You are stepping into a new version of yourself.

The one who chooses themself with tenderness,

With courage,

With devotion.

Stay here for a breath or two,

Letting this truth become the new ground beneath you.

Thank you for completing this series with me.

This track marks a shift,

A becoming.

If these meditations supported you,

I would love to welcome you into the bonus tracks where we deepen into safety,

Home,

And embodied expansion.

Take good care,

Love.

And as always know,

You are loved.

You are whole.

You are enough.
