Transcript

This is Angelique Bellucin with a short meditation on belly breaths, Inviting you into a meditation posture that supports you to feel relaxed and at ease. And also alert. And maybe even a sense of dignity in your posture. And settling in may include stillness. Or swaying. Maybe a gentle roll of the neck and shoulders. Or a stretch. And just scanning the body for any obvious places of tension that might be softened. And you could close your eyes or have a soft downward gaze. You might like to take a few intentional breaths. Slow, Long breath in through the nose. Holding for just a moment. And then slow out breath. Releasing tension. And inviting in a sense of calm. And another deep belly breath in, Slow through the nose. Noticing that feeling of air suspended as you hold for just a moment. And then a slow out breath, Relaxing outward. And inviting that sense of relaxation to grow. One more deep, Slow belly breath in through the nose. Holding for a moment. Maybe even taking just a sip more air if you can. And then that slow exhale. Releasing, Relaxing. And then allowing the breath to return to its natural rhythm. And now just taking a moment. To notice what is happening for you right now. Body sensations. Emotions. Thoughts. You are the calm and steady witness. Observing the ever-changing landscape of your life. And now gently coming back. Coming back to the room that you are in. Noticing the temperature of the air. The feeling of clothes on your skin. When you're ready, In your own time. Can open your eyes. Maybe allowing some of that stillness. To remain with you.
