A brief meditation on self-acceptance.

Sometimes we can over-identify with the labels that we give ourselves to help us with a sense of being in this world. When we rely on these labels for our sense of self, they can create harmful effects in our lives. We can compare ourselves to others, need to constantly have our labels affirmed, and become resistant to change because we rely on a self-image we need to protect. 

This week try to pay closer attention to what you’re experiencing at the moment. Try to experience the present moment with all the sights, sounds, feelings, etc. This will help you experience yourself moment by moment and not define yourself solely by the stories and labels you give yourself.

Affirmation:

I am worthy of my dreams,

I have the strength within me to accomplish my goals,

Roars within me,

To face any struggle on this journey,

I rise to the challenge,

To become the best parts of me.
