Links are in the show notes. Now, let's relax, find our center, and dive right in. As you close your beautiful eyes, I invite you if you're comfortable to bring your hand to your heart space. Let it rest there gently. Let it be a connection point of love, self love, allowing the love of your heart space to flow into the palm of your hand, and then allowing it to flow back in through your heart space to the rest of your being, flowing through your body, bathing your mind in greater peace and compassion. So you breathe in love and you let that love circulate deeper and deeper into love. We're inviting into this space the possibility that it is okay, that I am okay, that you are okay? And what would it feel like to allow my myself to just be who I am in all of my imperfection? What would it feel like to honor the part of me that misses the mark, that that engages in avoidance behavior or distraction or judging and being critical of myself and others? What if What if instead of trying to stop myself from doing those things, I simply had to accept that part of me, knowing that I am greater than that part, that this is not just the only part of me, but I am a tapestry of imperfect and perfect, beautiful and messy, and the mind wants to believe that it needs to hold on to these judgments of these parts of us that are messy that we must continue to focus on them in order to grow. That this criticism is an essential part of my growth, but what if it isn't? What if radical self acceptance would free me to simply be the very best version of myself because I have set myself free. I have stepped out of the bondage of judging myself as inadequate and embraced the wholeness of me. What would that feel like? Could you allow yourself scared the part of you that is scared. The part of you that is sometimes lazy. The part of you that judges other people. The part of you that catches the judger and then judges that. The part of you that is kind and compassionate. The part of you that is unbelievably tired. The part of you that is energized. The part of you that that loves without abandon, and that the part of you that loves deeply and profoundly, the part of you that is afraid to love deeply and profoundly. What if all of it were okay? What if you are okay just as you are, and that by embracing that you're actually freeing yourself up for change? The change that is the natural part of growth. But when you allow yourself, you step into that growth and that change from a place of total self acceptance. No conditions, just self acceptance, all of you. And you can enter that river of change with grace and with ease and with curiosity. Who will I be tomorrow? A week from now, a month from now, a year from now. Because I chose to love myself today. I invite you to feel into those silence. I invite you in this moment to make a decision, to allow this self acceptance to ground itself in every cell of your being. That you will get up from this meditation, transformed by self love and self acceptance. That you are unburdened and as such lighter. Allowing that lightness of being to bring you back into this time and space, and when you are ready open your beautiful eyes.
