What if the strength you need right now isn’t in pushing harder—but in softening into support?

Many survivors carry silent guilt or shame when it's time to ask for help—believing they’re a burden or not worthy of care. This guided meditation is designed to gently shift that internal narrative and remind you that support is not weakness—it’s connection.

Takeaway:

• Experience a calming microdose meditation that helps you release guilt around asking for help.
• Anchor into affirmations of worthiness, resilience, and self-compassion.
• Walk away feeling grounded, supported, and empowered to reach out without apology.

Breathe deeply and reconnect with your inner strength—press play now and let yourself be reminded: you don’t have to carry it all alone.
