So Let’s Begin…

HUNGER MEDITATION SCRIPT

Close your eyes,

and let soft whispers

of peace and relaxation

carry you away. 

PAUSE

Breathe deeply,

and feel the breath

as it circulates through you,

both relaxing and energizing you.

PAUSE

There are times in life

when we just don’t feel full,

but we’re not really physically hungry.

We hunger for something else.
And yet, we eat anyway.

PAUSE

So, take a deep breath,

and as you release it,

allow yourself to drift back in time–

to a time where you

reached for food

instead of what you needed.

Now, give yourself permission

to know what you were feeling.

PAUSE

Were you angry or hurt?

Did you feel lonely?

Were you exhausted
and pushing to just keep going?

Observe without judgment.

PAUSE

Now, imagine if you can,

reshaping that experience.

Take a deep breath,

and whisper to yourself

what it was you needed

at that time.

Hold on to that.

PAUSE

Now, imagine,

giving yourself
exactly what you needed.

PAUSE

Breathe in again,
and tap into 

the relief of

giving yourself

what you needed.

Let yourself really feel it.

Relief.

Peace.

Gratitude.

PAUSE

Hold those feelings.

And, as you do,

whisper a promise to yourself…

a promise that when you hunger,

you will feed yourself

what you truly need.

Breathe into the promise
until you feel it become part of you.

Now, wrap your arms 

around yourself

in a warm hug.

Then, go about your day,

knowing that

you will feed yourself

what’s right for you.

Now and always.

NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL
