Breath Technique & Self-Acceptance

Another marvelous three minutes!

I am so grateful for these meditations, moments. It is a small gift that I'm finally willing to give myself. I'm thankful that it's here for me.

I accept myself, as I am, right now

Sometimes it's a difficult thing to say to myself. With this guided meditation and focusing on the cool air entering my nostrils, my breath easy, I felt a sense of compassion and love for myself. It was a great feeling. Thank you. ❤️🌷

My self acceptance

I learned that I really needed the self acceptance... oh my how happy am I :)

Self acceptance and confidence

I learned to accept myself for who am. Be confident in who you are.

re: Self Acceptance

I rediscovered that I desire to go against commands and trends that I do not understand, and that loving myself the way I am now is still something I can't do.

Life’s beautiful...

Life is beautiful if we take a chance, or take a few seconds to look at what we have and not focus on the things we don’t or wish we had. Being happy is a choice.

Acceptance

Accepting yourself is hard. When i told myself that i accept me my heart felt like it was swelling. Self love is important. I loved how they incorporated that into this meditation.

Journeu

My body takes me my mind keeps me my body my mind my whole is complete and the feeling is permanent and indefinite

Acceptance

I learned that I accept myself fully and completely, yet also strive to be better (mental, emotional and physical health)

🙈🙈🙊

Nice, that was pretty pretty pretty good, pretty good! Pretty pretty, pretty good!

Acceptance

As a teenager and young adult I had often wondered what does it mean to accept yourself. I, entitled to everything, thought of course I accept myself why wouldn’t I? As an adult I’ve realized what it FEELS to accept myself and the world around me. For me acceptance began in the freedom and empowerment of forgiveness. Forgiveness has allowed inner peace, clarity, and opened the door for joy... I love life!

Acceptances

There is great calm that comes when you accept who you are in a moment of time.

🗣🗣

i have to take time out and just clear my mind away from everything and everybody 😩 , i have to control me and me only .

Beautiful

This is a special meditation that allowed me to plant the seed of soothing, nurturing it along until is blossomed into tranquility.

Pesent

It’s hard to be focused in the present when you are worry about the future. I try to keep my thoughts under control but my emotions are still there. I’m keeping learning.

Focus on nose

Loved the meditation and focus on the nose. When asked where in my body I felt the acceptance I could not seem to localize it. Hmmm.

Emotional 😭

To feel every emotion in my body and the sense i can persive

Healing

I enjoyed this practice immensely! Could actually sense & feel my body changing (healing?) itself thru twitches and warmth after accepting myself as I am... Crazy cool!

It’s okay

I learned that I hav a hard time concentrating and focus a lot on what happened in the past and can’t focus on now. But I will have to let go at some point and if I’m not ready it’s ok.

I accept myself as I am right now

Having kids there are stresses and milestones and moms don’t get a chance to take that thought and time on themselves and taking this mediation made me realize that I never thought of myself in a while that I’m always wanting to help my kids and fix there problems and never take the time for myself. 3 minutes was perfect for me :)

I to accept myself as I am today

This was a cooling down for the day relaxing my mind for the world to Is around me and opened my spirit togetherness with my inner queen.

Day 2

I learned that meditation can help me in many ways. It can help me except myself, calm down, get ready for a big day ahead, and many more things.

Focus

Deeper relaxation comes from sharper focus on one thing, one aspect of the breath x

Self acceptance comes from within and look toward change as a new breath of fresh air.

Breathing is so healthy and can bring freshness in the mind clears out the cobwebs.

Self Acceptance

Self acceptance is the key to release and growth. Self acceptance is not a one time thing, but rather something that I will need to continue doing throughout my life.

Self acceptance

I learned that only you can make that change to accept yourself by staying positive and loving yourself. Taking a moment to tell yourself it is okay to have flaws and that no one is perfect, really makes you feel like you can be accepted.

breathing

if i breathe as much as the person says i get really dizzy i think it should go @ a slower pace lmao

Self Acceptance

I learned that I accept myself as I am, right now. But that I have room for improvement and change but I can still love myself the way I am now

Nose

I learned that there is resistance to me accepting myself exactly as I am right now

Acceptance

I need to be more gentle with myself. Sometimes I want to change who I am or certain circumstances because I feel like it will make things better. In the end, it doesn’t work out that way.

Breathing is so simple....

....yet so powerful. While at Hood college, class of 1994, I learned this Buddhist meditative technique from Dr. James Boston PhD. He, in turn, learn this technique from the Buddhist Masters in India, who’s technique was passed down from the Buddha himself to his followers over the last 2500 years. It is a simple breathing technique, yet, considering the fact that it been around for over 2000 years, there must be some truth to it.

Even sickness can be eased with meditation

Focusing on the nose is somewhat helpful when you are sick. But only somewhat. Probably needed a different meditation.

Trying to keep this in mind

I accept myself as i am right now, this is really powerful, I’m kind of sick right now, actually i have been for a while and im not sure why, maybe it’s anxiety speaking trough my body, but if it is what’s happening right now, i must accept and try to move on

Mantra

Repeating a mantra like I accept who I am right now helps me know I can do this.

Quality

The meditation was good; her voice, the content and pace. However there were unusual small noises in the recording. Perhaps some type of feedback, but they were distracting. If the recording was cleaned up it would be absolutely perfect.

Just within minutes

I learned that it took just a few minutes to feel empowered again. The feeling was more of an overall positive and comforting sensation but made me feel great.

Self acceptance

I learned that I can feel the wideness of self acceptance, like love. Very sweet way to start my morning today.

I have a little headache

I wonder if it was hard for me to accept myself as I am right now

Focus point

I learned I need to work and focus more on self love and acceptance.

Awareness

I accept who I am right now. There is no need to worry. Change will come when it needs to. For now, embrace the knowledge that you have worth and life.

Just Breathe

I have been very stressed, to the point where I can’t even sleep. But as long as I focus on the things I need to get done and focus on why God’s made me the way I am, all of my work’s accomplishments will come easy.

Goals

I learned that I need to work on accepting myself as I began to doubt it while I repeated the phrase

Focal point

Accepting myself as I am right now, to the place I have lead myself, has been a challenge. This sent love and positive energy surging up my spine and flowing from my heart and my chest to wrap around my shoulders and head. An amazing feeling! I started to feel sad my lower body didn’t have a surge as well. Makes me realize, I wouldn’t feel a surge since I don’t feel grounded or creative in my current situation. More awareness with this one! Yay!! :)

Focus

I absolutely love focal point meditation, I can become so focused I don’t feel anything except for my breath! Thank you for a great meditation.

Day 84

Focusing on one area of breath was interesting and i enjoyed the saying at the end

Learning

This is crazy how it helped me through my night when I could not sleep.. This is amazing and I totally recommend it!

Breathing through it

I noticed throughout the day I became more aware of my calmness and I could focus more on the things that I need to get done and not the things that make me anxious and stressed

Entire mood change in 3 min

I was on my way to work and I took a few minutes just to sit in the park and listen to this. I felt so much more relaxed, happy and ready to take on the day after this

The mind palace

Really love doing this whenever I wake up. Takes me to a beautiful serene palace and really makes me feel 10x more more free and relaxed. An excellent getaway.

Memories

Ive always liked this teachers voice. Its very soft and inviting, calm and happy. This morning brought me back to memories of California from last year. What a wonderful adventure of growth. Brought back feelings of calm and enjoyment in the practice.

Loud house tonight

I probably should have gone ahead and used my earpods tonight, as my wife is clattering around in the kitchen, the two teens are being annoyingly loud for no real purpose other than to annoy...thankfully the youngest is staying at a friend's tonight! Looking forward to a quiet, hopefully productive weekend, now that I have my latest MRI out of the way...hopeful of accomplishing a lot around the house this weekend. All leading up to being able to pronounce myself back in business soon! I am SO ready to work again!
