A Self-Love Meditation
I don’t know if it's the full moon or fox news, but so many people have come to me this week with heavy hearts. I feel so honored to be able to serve. To offer an ear, a shoulder and my heart. Much of my work is guiding people to move in their life, to make the changes that they seek in themselves. Today, I simply want to offer the reminder that you are love! And a reminder that I see you and love you. It’s not always easy to receive love, especially when we are in less than desirable states of mind. So today, I offer you this simple meditation to read. You might notice how it feels to read the words, to allow peaceful images to come to mind and for a moment to just stop everything to notice love.
Self-Love Meditation
We walk around in our days giving of ourselves. We walk around ignoring our own needs and search to be fulfilled outside of ourselves. We receive temporary fixes but continue to run the race without fuel and water. We’ve given it all away. Sometimes we don’t even know that we are thirsty and hungry, we’re moving so fast we don’t listen.
Take a moment now to listen.
You are love.
You are perfect and whole. No giving or gaining, searching or scurrying can change this. Your love is waiting for you to see it. Your love is waiting for you to hold it. It doesn’t know why you haven’t heard it’s voice. Your love is watching you strive and blame and wonder and it wants you to stop. Please stop and say I see you. Please stop and say I love you. You have all that you need inside of yourself. Listen to the voice of love. Feel your heart beat for you. Feel your body breath for you. You are safe. In this moment of calm without the seeking and striving, feel the love traveling through the blood in your body. It pumps and pulsates, it’s alive.
You are love.
Nothing you’ve done and nothing you plan on doing will change this. You can settle into its arms. Let love swaddle you and rock you into a calm knowing of its truth, of its beautiful unconditional purity. Relax into its depth and know that it will never leave you.
Now place your hands over your heart and say, I hear you. I hear you. I hear you.
Take a deep breath in and say I see you, I see you , I see you.
Take a deep breath and say I feel you, I feel you , I feel you.
Take a deep breath in and say I love you, I love you , I love you.
