Speaker 1: Welcome. Find a quiet, comfortable place to sit or lie down.
Speaker 1: Close your eyes gently and take a deep, slow breath
Speaker 1: in and exhale fully. Begin by bringing your attention to
Speaker 1: your breath. Notice the natural flow, smooth, steady, and calm.
Speaker 1: There is no need to change your breathing. Simply observe
Speaker 1: it as it moves in and out. Feel your body
Speaker 1: relaxing deeper with each breath. Let the surface beneath you
Speaker 1: fully support your weight. Feel yourself becoming more grounded and present.
Speaker 1: Now bring your awareness inward. Imagine a soft light glowing
Speaker 1: at the center of your chest, your heart space. This
Speaker 1: light represents your inner self, the core of who you are,
Speaker 1: beyond thoughts and emotions. With each breath, see this light
Speaker 1: growing brighter, warmer, and more radiant. Allow yourself to connect
Speaker 1: with this inner light, feeling its steady presence within you.
Speaker 1: As you breathe in, silently, say to yourself, I am here.
Speaker 1: As you breathe out, say I am present. Begin to
Speaker 1: release any distractions or judgments about yourself. Let go of
Speaker 1: any masks or rules you may carry. Imagine peeling away
Speaker 1: layers like petals unfolding, revealing your true essence beneath. Bring
Speaker 1: to mind a question or intention you have for connecting
Speaker 1: with your inner self to day. It could be seeking guidance, understanding,
Speaker 1: or simply presence. Bold this intention gently in your mind,
Speaker 1: without forcing an answer. Allow thoughts and feelings to arise naturally,
Speaker 1: Observe them without judgment, Like clouds passing across a clear sky.
Speaker 1: If you notice any resistance or discomfort, breathe into it
Speaker 1: and let it soften. Now, imagine yourself walking along a
Speaker 1: quiet path in nature, perhaps through a forest, along a beach,
Speaker 1: or in a peaceful garden. With each step, feel yourself
Speaker 1: moving closer to your true self. Notice the sights, sounds,
Speaker 1: and sensations around you. Feel a sense of calm and
Speaker 1: openness growing within. Ahead on this path is a place
Speaker 1: of stillness, a quiet sanctuary where you can meet your
Speaker 1: inner self fully and without distraction. When you arrive, sit
Speaker 1: comfortably and take a few moments to simply be here.
Speaker 1: Allow yourself to listen deeply to what arises from within,
Speaker 1: whether its feelings, images, or words. Trust that whatever comes
Speaker 1: is part of your inner wisdom. If nothing specific arises,
Speaker 1: that's okay too. Simply rest in the awareness of your
Speaker 1: connection to yourself. Silently repeat I am connected, I am whole,
Speaker 1: I am enough. Feel the truth of these words settling
Speaker 1: deeply in your heart. Spend sever several minutes here in
Speaker 1: this space of connection and presence. When you feel ready,
Speaker 1: gently begin to bring your awareness back to your breath.
Speaker 1: Notice the rise and fall of your chest and belly.
Speaker 1: Slowly bring attention back to your body resting here now,
Speaker 1: Wiggle your fingers and toes. Gently, stretch softly if it
Speaker 1: feels good. When you're ready, open your eyes. Carry this
Speaker 1: connection with your inner self throughout your day. Remember that
Speaker 1: this inner night and wisdom are always available to you.
Speaker 1: Thank you for sharing this meditation on connecting with your
Speaker 1: inner self.
