Welcome.
This moment is for you to pause,
To breathe,
To listen,
To arrive here,
Now,
Just as you are.
To be rooted is to remember where you belong.
Like the great trees anchored deep in the soil,
You too are held,
Supported,
And steady.
Roots unseen,
Yet always there,
Offering strength,
Nourishment,
And connection.
Gently closing your eyes now,
Breathing in and out through your nose.
As you inhale,
Feel the crown of your head lift.
As you exhale,
Allow your weight to settle downward.
With every breath,
Imagine yourself steady,
Grounded,
Rooted.
Continuing to breathe gently,
Allow these words to guide your breath.
Inhale,
I am.
Exhale,
Steady.
Inhale,
I am.
Exhale,
Rooted.
Again,
Inhale,
I am.
Exhale,
Steady.
Inhale,
I am.
Exhale,
Rooted.
Once more,
On your own.
And now,
Let the words rest within you.
Nothing to hold.
Nothing to reach for.
Only your breath.
Only this moment.
Rooted here and now.
Noticing your breath again.
Moving in and out through your nose.
Noticing your body resting here,
Offering some gentle movement,
Opening and closing your hands,
Releasing any remaining grasp.
When you're ready,
Slowly open your eyes,
Bringing rootedness with you.
To be rooted is to be supported,
To know that you belong.
As you return to your day,
Remember,
You are rooted in every breath,
Every step,
Every moment.
Thank you for taking this time.
May you return again and again to your breath,
To your center,
To stillness.
