Your ability to share intimacy with another person is a gift so profound when used correctly when you choose to align it with your morals, values and beliefs.
Intimacy can be a tricky subject, especially when you're on the path to recovery. In this episode of 'Naturally Recovered', Ashlie Pappas offers a soothing guided meditation to help you navigate these complex emotions. She knows that intimacy in sobriety often comes with baggage like guilt, shame, and low self-esteem. But Ashlie is here to show you that intimacy, when aligned with your values and beliefs, can be a beautiful part of your recovery journey.
This meditation starts with finding a quiet spot where you won't be disturbed. Ashlie guides you through deep breathing exercises to help you relax and become more open to spiritual guidance. With each breath, you'll feel more centered and ready to let go of past negative experiences tied to intimacy. Ashlie encourages you to see intimacy as a precious gift that should be shared with love and respect.
She urges you to release any desires to use intimacy for harm or manipulation. Instead, she invites you to embrace the divine power within you and honor yourself through self-respect and right motives. Throughout the meditation, you'll visualize a glowing light that represents your values and beliefs. Ashlie asks you to place a heart or symbol of intimacy near this light, helping you align your intimate actions with your core values.
This visualization aims to help you let go of guilt and shame, making room for positive, value-driven intimacy in your life. By the end of the session, you'll feel more at peace and better equipped to handle intimacy in a way that honors your recovery journey. Ashlie also introduces her 10 Week Summer Transformation program for those looking for deeper personal growth.
This episode is a powerful tool for anyone seeking to reconcile intimacy with their spiritual and personal values in recovery.
