Guided Self-Love Visualization Meditation

Speaker 1

Hey there , this is a meditation that will take you through a visualization and make you feel more connected to yourself . So I want you to settle into a comfortable position , making sure you will not be disturbed will not be disturbed and just close your eyes and start to concentrate on your breathing . Take a deep inhale for the count of four , three , two and one , Holding for two and then exhaling with a sigh for a count of four . Sometimes it really helps us to connect back to our body when we exhale with the sound . Let's try that again Breathing in four , three , two and one , Holding at the top and exhaling , exhaling . As you continue to breathe in this way . While you're inhaling , just say to yourself breathing in , and on the exhale , say breathing out . Repeat this breathing sequence a few times , while focusing on your breath .

And now I want you to imagine that you are completely alone in a movie theater . You're sitting right in the middle in a big , plush , comfortable chair , your legs and back are fully supported and the movie screen is directly in front of you . You feel warm and safe and secure . So on the screen directly in front of you , you see the number 20 in large black print appear on the left hand side of the screen and as you look at the number 20 , watch it as it moves slowly across from the left to the right hand side and then slowly disappear off the screen . Feel your muscles starting to let go and imagine any tension beginning to gently melt away . The number 19 appears on the left side of the screen now and moves slowly along to the right , disappearing at the edge . Your jaw is relaxed , your eyeballs and your eyebrows are relaxed and your mind is quiet . Continue counting down , seeing each number travel across the screen from left to right and watch the numbers . See them vividly going a little faster now , no matter , no paying attention to speed , simply watching them pass by from left to right .

Speaker 1

16 , 15, . Keep breathing . Number 14 floats by and you're feeling very relaxed . Now 13 and 12 . Here comes 11 . Now 10 . Gently drifting out of focus . And then 9 and eight , Seven and six , and your body feels like it is sinking into the chair , Feels gooey and nice and comfy . If your mind wanders , don't fight it . Gently bring it back to the movie theater .

Speaker 1

See the number five slowly making its way across the screen now and you're going deeper and deeper into relaxation . Follow the number four as it travels across the screen , your muscles feeling heavy , you become more and more aware of the silence and the stillness around you . The number three appears on the left of the screen now and drifts slowly across to the right . The number two appears and now the number one eventually disappearing to the right , and your body is completely relaxed . It's grounded into the earth .

Speaker 1

You feel a wonderful tingling sensation throughout your body , a kind of aliveness , an aura . You look around the room at the empty theater and as you look to the right , you notice someone coming towards you on the aisle . You innately have this sense of belonging . As this person moves closer and takes a seat beside you and as you look at this person and the person looks at you , you begin to laugh together . There's this deep sense of knowing and trust and familiarity . This person as you , as yourself . You smile because you feel safe and secure , and you smile back at yourself because you feel safe and secure and you smile back at yourself because you are safe and secure .

Speaker 1

It is this moment that you both realize that you have an ally in you and that your ally is always there with you to empower you and to support you . To empower you and to support you to be who you know you can be . You feel a sense of confidence and a freedom to express yourself and speak your mind . You know that they will never judge you and that the person sitting next to you will only encourage and support you , just as you will encourage and support yourself . You feel supported and you give support . You take the time now to look into the eyes of yourself and to thank them for being in your life and repeating the following affirmations I love and support myself and I am loved and supported by me . I encourage and empower myself to be a good person and it is my ally who empowers and encourages me . I give gratitude to me and to knowing who I am and knowing that I'm never alone . I love myself unconditionally and I am unconditionally loved . I am unconditionally loved . I treat myself with love and respect and it is returned to me multiplied . I love spending time with myself . I am loyal and trusting . I feel supported in my goals and my dreams and I have a harmonious relationship with myself .

Inner Strength and Gratitude Meditation

Speaker 1

In this moment , you connect with the person sitting next to you in the movie theater and you take a deep breath in together and you feel your energy swirling through you and around you , knowing that it is always there , that you have the support you need within you . Now take a moment to feel gratitude and joy for your wonderful life and the continuous miracles it produces . Know that , even when the theater is empty and there's nothing on the screen , that you have you and that that's enough . Some days , you will invite other people to come in and you will enjoy them as well , but you will not depend on them . You are not attached to what they think or to what they expect , because you have your ally yourself .

Speaker 1

Take several deep breaths and slowly count down from five through to one . Starting at five , you begin to wake up from this meditative state . Four you're becoming more alert . Three stretch your arms up and take a deep breath . Two slowly begin to open your eyes . And one open your eyes fully . You are now fully awake and connected , feeling refreshed and energized . Namaste , my friends .
