A Gentle Pause

A short, soothing practice to help you pause, slow down and reconnect with yourself.

Take a few moments away from the busyness of the day. Gently bring your attention to your breath, your body and whatever you're experiencing right now. You'll be invited to soften tension, breathe into areas of tightness and create a little more space around anxiety or overwhelm.

Hi there. I'd like to invite you to take a little pause with me. Wherever you are, Just give yourself a moment to stop. If it feels comfortable. Close your eyes or simply soften your gaze. You might like to place one hand over your heart and the other on your belly. And take a slow gentle breath in. And as you breathe out, Allow your shoulders to soften. Let your face relax. And just notice what's here. Maybe there's some tension, Anxiety or unease. And rather than trying to push it away. See if you can simply make a little space for it. Breathe gently into whatever you're experiencing. And quietly remind yourself. It's okay for this to be here. Allow your shoulders to soften a little further. Feel the support beneath you. Let yourself settle into the surface you're sitting on. And take one more slow gentle breath in. And a long easy breath out. And when you're ready. Gently open your eyes if they were closed. Let your arms relax. And perhaps notice if there's even the smallest sense of ease. And every smile comes naturally. That's it. Thank you.
