My name is Jenny,
And this is a breathwork practice to gently start your day,
To bring in a little grounding and a little peace.
Find a comfortable seated position,
Gently close the eyes.
And begin by feeling your seat bones anchor into the ground,
Your shoulders and jaw,
Eyebrows relaxed,
Spine gently lifting.
Take a full breath in through the nose,
And let it go with a sigh.
Just one more,
Breathe in through the nose,
Fill the belly,
The ribs,
The body with breath,
And let it go.
And just tune into your breath.
Take in a few moments to listen to your breath like nothing else matters right now.
Just breathing into your body and just really allowing your awareness to arrive into your body this morning.
Just letting yourself land into your body today.
Then becoming aware of your seat bones in the ground,
Your pelvis,
Your belly.
And just for the next few moments,
Send your breath deep and expansive into your belly,
Into your pelvis,
Into your seat bones.
Allowing your breath to root,
To begin your day,
Steady and earthed.
Before bringing your breath into your ribcage,
Into the upper belly,
Into the upper back.
Allowing your torso to expand strong and open.
Before letting your breath drop into your chest,
Your heart.
Keeping the shoulders relaxed,
Shoulders are easy,
But as you breathe,
Just filling your heart with breath.
And then keeping this full,
Expansive breath deep in the belly,
Wide in the ribcage,
Full in the chest.
See how gentle,
How light you can make your breath.
Allowing yourself to really receive a slow,
Full breath,
Not needing to push,
Just really receiving.
And keeping this rooted,
Full light quality.
As you breathe in,
Count to 3,
2,
1.
As you breathe out for 6,
5,
4,
3,
2,
1.
And inhale 3,
2,
1.
Exhale 6,
5,
4.
And keep this going,
Light inhales for 3,
Slow exhales for 6.
Finding a pace that works for you.
In for 3,
Out for 6.
As slow as you can without stress.
And keep this going,
Just for a little bit.
Perhaps with every inhale it's a little space,
Or a little life,
Or a little energy gently coming in.
Perhaps with every breath out it's trust,
It's ease,
It's connection to the earth.
And play here for just a few moments more.
In for 3,
Out for 6.
Each inhale gently awakening.
Each exhale bringing a sense of rooted trust,
Even just a glimmer.
And then after your next exhale just coming back to your regular breath.
Coming back to your body,
Tuning in to how all of you is feeling.
Trusting that whatever's there is,
It's okay,
We can just breathe with it,
Let it be here.
And just bringing into your mind someone or something that you're grateful for today.
Just let that gratitude come into the body.
Really feel it,
Maybe even smile with it.
Before just bringing in something you'd like to remember today.
This could be an intention,
Or a word,
Or a phrase.
Just something that whenever you need to,
You can take a moment and breathe and really remember,
Really anchor in.
If in doubt,
I am enough is always a beautiful one.
And whatever your word or phrase was,
Just really breathe with it now and let it land.
Let it be here.
We'll seal today's practice with 3 breaths.
If you're in a space where you can make noise,
I invite you as you breathe out to make a gentle humming sound.
It's fantastic for the nervous system.
If you're in a public space,
3 breaths is perfect.
Let's take an inhale together.
Let it go with a hum or a sigh.
And one more.
What do you want to breathe in today?
Breathe it in now.
And have a wonderful day.
Thank you so much for joining.
I will see you again very soon.
