Guided Visualization on gentle care

Bite Size Guided Visualizations

Here is a guided visualization exercise focused on gentle self-care:

Find a comfortable place to sit or lie down. Take a few deep breaths, feeling your belly rise and fall with each inhale and exhale. As you breathe, begin to relax your body, releasing any tension or stress you are holding.

Imagine a warm, glowing light at the center of your chest. This light represents your own inner kindness, compassion, and care for yourself. As you breathe, visualize this light growing brighter and expanding outward, enveloping your entire body in a gentle, soothing glow.

Notice how this light radiates a sense of safety, comfort, and unconditional acceptance. Allow yourself to fully receive this nurturing energy, letting it flow through you and soothe any areas of tension or discomfort.

When you are ready, imagine this light extending outward, surrounding you in a protective, loving sphere. This is your own personal sanctuary - a space where you can rest, recharge, and simply be with yourself without judgment or expectation.

Take a few more deep breaths, feeling this space of gentleness and self-care fully embrace you. When you're ready, slowly open your eyes, bringing this sense of kindness and self-compassion with you into the rest of your day.
