Mini-meditation series:
Forgiveness:
Sit on a chair or a cushion with your back straight & relaxed
Let your bodies be still,
Let your eyes closed, or leave them open gaze down look at the floor beneath you
Take a few deep breaths in and breathe out gently
Relax your body, clear your mind
Then on your next breath bring your attention to your heart centre
Put your hand on your heart, the area around your chest
Feel the sensations for a moment
Then on your next breath simply start to forgive yourself for any wrongdoings or any self-judgments you have had about yourself. Any strong feelings or actions, anything you have done which you think it was inappropriate, and silently say these phrases after me:
May I forgive myself for any harm that I have caused myself intentionally or unintentionally.
May I forgive myself for any strong feelings I have had towards people whom I know or don’t know, strong emotions like Jealousy, hatred, shame, anger, judgment, and so on.
Take a moment to notice where in your body you feel these emotions, the sensations maybe, be aware of them for a moment, kindly let them go…., and forgive yourself thoroughly.
Then bring your attention back to your breathing, come back to this moment
Come back to centre, and gently open your eyes and go on with your daily activities
Love & blessing
Gita
