Ritual 2: Breathe into Self-Love: A Heart-Opening Practice
Share
Heart-Opening Breathwork for Self-Compassion
The heart carries so much—love, pain, hope, and fear. Breathwork is a gentle yet profound way to connect to your heart’s center and invite self-compassion.
Practice this simple heart-opening breathwork:
Sit comfortably and place your hands over your heart.
Inhale deeply through the nose for a count of 9, feeling your heart expand.
Exhale slowly through the mouth, releasing tension.
Repeat for 9 cycles, visualizing warmth filling your chest.
End with the affirmation: “My heart is open, and I welcome love into my life.”
Allow this practice to soften your heart and deepen your self-love.
