Self love is so important. It provides us the guiding map to what we accept and attract in our life experience. It can produce feeling of happiness and move you towards creating a life that is positive and feeds into your soul journey.
My most popular meditation on Insight Timer is the ‘Self Love’ Meditation and it has produced great inner results for people. Maybe they smiled more that day. Laughted more with friends or starting taking actions to their goals. As a result, I wanted to share the script with you so perhaps you can create your own meditation or just sit and reflect on the words and allow yourself to be immersed in it.
Let’s begin.
Can you sit up straight, hands resting in your lap, spine is straight. As we begin let’s take a few deep slow breaths, drawing air in through your nose and out through your nose. Take some time to pour love into you. Understand that you are worthy of every single blessing that’s on it’s way to you. Be free from any distractions, any concerns, anything about the physical world around you. This time and space is about you. Relax. Nothing else matters right now except for you own gift to love yourself.
Feel your body. Relax into your body. Feel your breath as it goes in and out through your nose. Feel the presence of love spreading through your mind and your muscles. From the souls of your feet, your calves, wrapping around your knees, your thighs, making it’s way around your hips, your tummy, spreading up to your heart – slow down your heart rate, allow the love to continue down your arms, through to your hands, your fingers, feel it’s warmth around your neck, your jaw, your lips, your eye socket, your eye brows and finally shooting up through the crown of your head.
Enjoy the feeling of lightness. Take a deep breath in and out.
Move into a place within you, resting at your heart centre. Allow the worries of the world to slip away, falling off the left and right side of your body. Feel your energy vibrate higher, faster into this beautiful state of self love.
Imagine being protected by this love. Feel the energy around your entire body. Accept it with ease and grace. Release any negative thoughts about past decisions, past experiences and past concerns. In this moment, love yourself just as you are. In this moment, you are your truest and most authentic self. Know that you can create your own future.
Feel your body. Relax into your body.
In your mind repeat the following affirmations:
I love the person I am today.
I love the person I am today.
I love the person I am today.
***1 minute silence***
Bring your attention back to your breath. Your heart centre.
I approach challenges with strength and eagerness
I approach challenges with strength and eagerness
I approach challenges with strength and eagerness.
***1 minute silence***
Bring your attention back to your breath. Your heart centre.
I am perfect the way I am
I am perfect the way I am
I am perfect the way I am
***1 minute silence***
Bring your attention back to your breath. Your heart centre.
I take time for myself and enjoy it.
I take time for myself and enjoy it.
I take time for myself and enjoy it
***1 minute silence***
Bring your attention back to your breath. Your heart centre.
Now visualise yourself standing in front of a mirror and look into your own eyes. Do you see your own beauty? Your inner courage? Your joy?
Tell yourself: “I love you”, “You are worthy of happiness”.
Visualise love pouring out of your heart and your hands. Feel it’s warmth filling your entire body. Feel a sense of calmness allow this sensation to surround you from head to toe. Breathe in and out through your nose. Know that love is always available to you.
***1 minute silence***
When you’re ready take a few more deep breaths in and out through your nose. Let this unique experience sink into every cell of your body. Tune back into your physical being. When you are ready you can wiggle your toes, your fingers. Gently open your eyes.
