You Sometimes social situations can feel overwhelming. Even hours after returning home. There may still be a part of us living in past conversations. Replaying scenes in our head. Thinking about moments. That are already far behind us. Take this moment now. To return. To yourself. Take one deep breath in. And breathe out. Notice where in your body you might be feeling tension. Maybe it's in your jaw. Maybe it's in your shoulders. Maybe it's in your chest. Or your stomach. With this next breath. Allow some of that tension to soften. Picture your energy and your awareness coming back inward. Home. To you. You are not being asked to turn on a version of yourself. You are not being asked to perform. Take this moment. To enjoy the stillness. Of your own company. Take another deep breath in. And as you breathe out Begin letting go. Of replaying the scenes in your head. Letting go of the I should have said this or Why did I say that? Letting go of the judgment. You imagine from others. That may not even exist at all. Now visualize yourself as if you're looking down. Yourself from above. A kind, Generous, Compassionate soul. Someone doing the best they could. With the energy they had today. A unique being on this earth. Unlike any other. Visualize all of that loving energy pouring back inside you. Breathing it in deeply. Breathing out any remaining heaviness from the day. Feeling lighter. With each breath you take. You have returned to yourself. And that is a beautiful place to be.

Laura, thank you!! I love everything about this. The words, the soft music, the pace and your voice all mesh into a symphony of beauty. One request...Please do a sleep track as your voice is so soothing and would be a peaceful way to drift off to Dreamland. 🥰💞🙏🏼

I could use about an hour more of your calming voice and reassuring messages as I recover from a week’s worth of overwhelming socializing. Thank you for these 5, though 🙏🏼💜
