accepting this body
did not mean convincing myself
that it was beautiful, it meant
giving myself permission
to exist regardless.

Meditation to Build Self-Esteem
Here is a guided meditation you can use to help build self-esteem. Sit in a comfortable position, with your back straight, breathe in as you read the breathing in lines and breathe out as you read the breathing out lines.
Breathing in, I am aware of my breath going in
Breathing out, I am aware of my breath going out
Breathing in, I am present in my body
Breathing out, I am present in time and space
Breathing in, I invite a new perspective on myself
Breathing out, I empty my mind
Breathing in, I give myself the gift of fresh air
Breathing out, I give back to the world
Breathing in, I recognize that I suffer from my self-esteem
Breathing out, I wish to change that habit
Breathing in, I recognize that I am human
Breathing out, I know that being human hurts
Breathing In, I feel the pain and sadness
Breathing out, I give that to the world
Breathing in, I feel the world’s suffering
Breathing out, I send the world peace
Breathing in, I am connected to all people
Breathing out, I wish people to be free of suffering
Breathing in, I am connected to myself
Breathing out, I wish to be free of suffering
Breathing in, I invite peace into my life
Breathing out, I share peace with the world
Breathing in, I see all people are equal
Breathing out, I join the sea of equality
Breathing in, I am no better than anybody
Breathing out, nobody is better than me
Breathing in, I am only what I am
Breathing out, I am enough
Breathing in, I connect with my essential goodness
Breathing out, I share my goodness with the world
Breathing in, I know new thoughts may unsettle me
Breathing out, I let my thoughts go.
Breathing in, I am present in my body
Breathing out, I am present in time and space
Breathing in, I am aware of my breath going in
Breathing out, I am aware of my breath going out
