Meet Your Future Self: Life Changing Guided Meditation
Meet the person who will be your future mindfulness meditation and visualization guide with a self-guided approach. Embrace Your Life's Purpose! Realize Your Potential! Follow Your Dreams! Psychologists have discovered that people are not very good at predicting their futures, not because they cannot, but because they do not. This phenomenon is due to the fact that very few people spend much time imagining their future selves!! Instead, we assume that who we are now is who we will always be. It is the same thing to have a personality as it is to have a comfort zone. Uncertainty will enter your life when you step outside your comfort zone. You're going to make mistakes. You'll have setbacks along the way. Anxiety and frustration are likely to accompany your experience. While intentionally stepping outside of your comfort zone to create the life you want, you will learn and grow as a person. You will have many deep learning and peak experiences as a result of this intentional growth and development. In psychology, psychological flexibility refers to the ability to maintain one's current identity and emotions while pursuing meaningful goals in an uncomplicated manner. During this meditation, you will have a positive, deeply relaxing experience of meeting your future self. As you seek and discover answers to your most important life questions, allow your subconscious, or higher self, to guide you along the way. Here are the steps to imagining and becoming your desired FUTURE SELF: Imagine who you want to be Journal about who you want to be Decide who you want to be in 3 years from now Create a morning routine where you get up, get yourself into the right environment without distractions, and activate your future-self mindset Invest money into your future self—whether that be courses, skills, mentors, or experiences. Change your environment to match your future self—including the information, food, people, and experiences—as you create a future that you know is yours. The bolder your action toward your future self, the more emotionally flexible and evolved you will become. The more emotionally evolved you become, the less constrained you’ll be by your past or your circumstances. This meditation experience may be repeated as many times as you wish to reinforce your positive intentions and access the more profound wisdom of your higher self. May you continue to discover your highest waking potential under the guidance of your own inner wisdom. Regular listening to this session is encouraged and recommended because it will help compound positive suggestions and your own positive results.
