Reflecting On A Role Model

Here’s a Sample of the “Reflecting On A Role Model” Guided Meditation Script:

In this exercise,
I’ll talk about the importance of having a mindful role model in your life
To help you envision how you want to be
And the qualities of character you want to develop

Who is a person who you look up to
Who you feel is mindful in some way?
Someone who shows non-judgmental awareness,
Even in stressful situations?
They could be a teacher, parent, guidance counselor,
Or someone in your community...

Reflect on the qualities of presence that they have...
How do they make you feel?
Do they judge you?
Are they present for how you show up?
For whatever comes their way?

How is their speech?
How do they talk?
What kind of words do they use?

Do they smile?
How do they look at you? And others?

How do they hold their posture?

What kind of decisions have they made about their life?
Do you know what their purpose, or mission in life is?
...

And now reflect on how you want to be.
How mindful can you be in daily life, even in tough situations?

Reflect on the qualities of presence that you want to develop...
How would that feel?

Would you judge others?
Are you present for how you show up?
For whatever comes your way?

How is your speech?
How do you talk?
What kind of words do you use?

Do you smile?
How do you look at others?
At yourself?

How do you hold your posture?

What kind of decisions have you made about your life?
Do you know what your purpose, or mission in life is?
