Transcript

Sit or lay comfortably,

Resting your hands on your legs or at your sides.

Begin now to focus your attention on your breathing,

Feeling your chest move gently inward and outward.

Your mind may be bracing with uncomfortable or fearful thoughts,

And that's okay.

Just continue to breathe naturally.

Notice and feel the airflow gently in and out of your nose,

And feel a soothing lightness throughout your body,

Flowing down from the top of your head,

All the way down to the tips of your toes,

Gently and effortlessly.

As you slowly and gradually create this awareness,

Repeat after me,

Either out loud or in your mind,

Each time counting down from five to one,

And stating stillness,

Awareness,

After each number,

Repeating after me,

From five to one,

Stillness,

Awareness,

Stillness,

Awareness.

Aware are not these unpleasant feelings.

You have overcome them in the past,

And you will rise above them again,

Ever-changing.

If the feelings stay with you for some time,

It's okay.

Time and awareness will allow it to fade.

Time and awareness will allow it to fade.

One last time,

Nice and slowly,

Repeating this time,

Calm and present,

Calm and present,

Calm and present,

Calm and present,

Calm and present,

Calm and present,

Calm and present.

And sit with your feelings,

Whatever they are at this moment,

For just a few more moments.

Notice the air moving slowly in and out,

Your chest moving gently up.

You are aware.

Peace will return.

You're becoming aware again and again.

Remain in stillness and allow yourself to let go.

Namaste.
