Accepting yourself by using positivity

Accepting yourself script 1

You can practice acceptance by looking at the truth of the situation. You may want to write down the truth of the situation in your journal or keep a note in your phone to use in your practice.

Say out loud, “The truth of this situation is…” and then say the positive truth that comes to mind. It may be that you are angry and upset with yourself.

You can say, “The truth of this situation is that…”

You may say, “The truth of this situation is that I am kind and compassionate to myself.”

“The truth of this situation is that I am worthy of kindness.”

“The truth of this situation is that I have the capacity to offer kindness.”

“The truth of this situation is that I have the power to be kind.”

“The truth of this situation is that I have the ability to be kind.”

When you say the positive truth, your mind will be freer. You will feel less threatened, less afraid, and more at peace. Your emotions will be calmer and the mind more at ease.

With practice, you can develop a habit of noticing your truth and choosing a positive truth over a negative one. It will begin to change the story you tell yourself, and the truth of the situation will shift.

For instance, when you catch yourself judging yourself, you can say, “I am not a bad person, I am simply a human being trying to be kind to myself.”

Your mind will begin to accept that.

You can practice this in different settings.

You can begin practicing acceptance in your daily life by practicing positive self-talk.

For example, if you are feeling anxious or insecure, you can turn toward yourself and remind yourself that you are kind and worthy.

If you are experiencing a struggle with your emotions, you can say, “I am capable of regulating my emotions. I have a loving heart. I have the strength to face my fear. I can be calm.”

When you begin to practice acceptance, you will experience yourself as a whole person rather than a set of weaknesses.

 

Accepting yourself script 2

It is easy to criticize ourselves, believing that we are not good enough, not smart enough, not pretty enough. With positivity, you can reverse the conversation. You can start with yourself and recognize the things you like about yourself.

Close the eyes and find a comfortable posture in which to sit. Bring your awareness to the sensation of the body breathing. You can focus on the chest, abdomen, or nostrils.

Take a few deep breaths, inviting calmness and peace into the body. You can focus on one of the senses, like touch or taste, or you can choose to focus on a quality, like kindness or curiosity.

With the next breath, offer an affirmation to yourself.

Say, I accept myself as I am. I am kind, generous, and caring. I have a strong body. I am creative. I am wise. I am loyal.

The affirmation can be short or long, and the wording can be as poetic or personal as you wish. Feel the energy of the words as they resonate in the body.

Continue to breathe and offer affirmations to yourself as often as you are able. You may repeat one of the same phrases over and over, or you can mix it up.

Stay with the affirmation for as long as you feel comfortable. At the end, simply acknowledge that you have completed this practice, and thank yourself for your efforts.

 

Accepting yourself script 3

One of the most difficult things to do is accept yourself for who you are.

Many people struggle with believing that they are lovable, worthy, or talented. They may think of themselves as lazy or ungrateful.

As a result, they are unable to offer love and care to themselves. By using the power of mindfulness, you can practice accepting yourself.

Set a timer for five minutes and invite kindness into the body.

When the timer goes off, invite gentleness to come into the heart.

Ask yourself how you can be more loving toward yourself in this moment.

Be aware of any resistance that comes up, noticing when you try to hide from your own kindness. You can also notice when you become harsh or self-critical.

Ask yourself how you can let go of these thoughts and feelings. Say to yourself, “I am allowing myself to be kind.”

Once you have practiced a few times, you will find that you begin to use the practice of acceptance as a way of being. You will no longer think of yourself in such negative ways.

You may even be surprised to find how many times you give kindness to yourself in daily life.
