DAY 1 — Meeting Myself Kindly

Short Draft Copy

Welcome to Day 1. Today you simply learn how to meet yourself with gentleness.

Most of us speak to ourselves with pressure or criticism. Today’s practice is to pause, breathe, and offer one simple phrase:

“I’m here with you.”

Repeat it slowly. No need to believe it fully. Let your body feel the tone of kindness.

DAY 2 — Naming What’s Here

Short Draft Copy

Healing begins with honesty. Today you practice naming your inner experience without judgment.

Say, softly:

“There is anxiety.”
“There is heaviness.”
“There is tiredness.”

We’re not fixing anything—we’re acknowledging reality with warmth.

Short Draft Copy

Today you practice responding to what you named yesterday.

When you feel something difficult, try saying:

“It’s okay to feel this.”
“You don’t have to go through this alone.”

Notice any shifts in the chest or breath. These are signs of safety returning.

Healing words work best when the body feels included.

Today’s practice:

  1. Place a hand on your heart or belly.

  2. Breathe slowly.

  3. Whisper a phrase such as:
    “Body, I’m listening.”

Notice warmth, softening, resistance, or neutrality. All are welcome.

Today you walk gently with the parts of you that hurt, fear, freeze, or doubt.

Choose one phrase like:

“This part of me is hurting—may I meet it kindly.”

Let the hurting part be seen, without forcing change.

DAY 6 — Letting Love or Warmth Support You

Slug: /healing-journeys/words-heal-me-day-6/

Short Draft Copy

You don’t have to generate healing alone.
Let warmth, breath, presence—or for some, God or Pure Mind—hold you.

Practice saying:

“I am held in gentleness.”
or
“It all belongs in Love.”

These aren’t beliefs—they are invitations.

  • Do you feel less alone inside?

Your final phrase:

“May I continue to walk gently with myself.”

You can repeat this journey anytime.
