Tomorrow, some of us will begin a two month daily reflection meditation. (To read more about this, see this post and this post.) The following meditation can be used on its own or as a starting point for the daily reflection meditation.
For this meditation, you need to have a mirror near you. However, you can choose not to use a mirror and instead imagine a mirror in your mind and imagine your reflection.
There is no time limit for this meditation. If you listen to the audio post, you can continue past the end of the audio and sit with this meditation for as long as you like.

Finding a comfortable way to sit, begin to come into your body. Close your eyes.
Take a moment to find your center.
Let you next inhalation begin there.
As you breathe, begin to reflect on the word acceptance.
What comes to mind?
An image? An idea? A feeling?
When you are ready, bring your mind to the idea of self-acceptance.
With your next inhalation, begin to invite self-acceptance into your center.
As you exhale, let this self-acceptance settle over you like a blanket.
When you are ready, open your eyes and look in the mirror in front of you.
Continue to breathe from your center, connecting with the self-acceptance that resides there, that is a part of you.
Notice where your mind travels.
Breathe your way into the feelings.
Try to let go of any judgment that arises.
When you are ready, let the mind rest in the center of the body, in this place of self-acceptance.
Namaste.
