Dear Self Meditation: Gratitude and Self-Love

In this beautiful meditation, Alex Elle asks us to reflect on the question "What do I need to forgive myself for?" while also guiding us to build self-compassion and express gratitude for the journey of healing.

It was no accident that I came upon this self-love meditation this morning. A sign that the universe is hearing my prayers.
