Welcome beautiful soul. Take this time today just for you to reset to release and to gently restore your body and your mind. This moment is yours alone. Begin now by closing your eyes or allowing your gaze to soften. Take a long slow breath in and gently breathe out. Again, Breathing in calm. And exhaling tension. One more time. Breathing in ease. And breathing out. And letting go. Now we'll begin to bring awareness to your body. Gently tensing and releasing each area. Allowing deep relaxation to follow. Start with your forehead. Gently raise your eyebrows creating a slight tension. Hold for a moment and release. Now your eyes. Squeeze them shut just slightly. Hold and release. And let your eyes rest heavy and relaxed. Bring your attention now down to your jaw. Clench your teeth gently. Hold and then let them relax. Let your jaw soften and your tongue rest comfortably in your mouth. Bring your attention down now to your shoulders. Lift them all the way up to your ears. Squeeze and squeeze your shoulders. Hold that tension and then let them drop. Feel the weight of the day melt away. And coming down now to your arms. Tighten your forearms and your upper arms. Squeezing them into the sides of your body. And then let them drop. Allowing them to become heavy and relaxed. Come down once more to your hands. And make two fists with your fingers. Imagine that you are squeezing an orange in each hand. And the tighter you squeeze the more juice runs from the orange. Squeeze and squeeze. Allow your arms now to drop heavily into your lap or by your side. And feel your hands become heavy and still. Bring your awareness now to your chest. And breathe. Taking a deep breath in. Filling your lungs fully. Hold gently. And then exhale softly. Feel your chest soften. Your breath becoming slow and natural. Bringing your attention down now to your stomach. Tighten your abdominal muscles.
