Good morning,
Join me for today's session where we will explore some of the most effective tools and techniques for regulating your nervous system,
Enhancing your health,
And cultivating well-being and happiness.
As you gently settle into this calming space,
We will focus on guiding your mind and body into a peaceful state,
Shaping your outlook and beliefs to help your nervous system find balance.
Together,
We'll cultivate a mindset that allows you to move gracefully through your day,
Ready for whatever comes your way,
While rewiring your brain to tap into this state more and more easily.
And please note that this is one of the four shorter sessions,
Including affirmations,
Gratitude,
Loving-kindness,
And visualizations.
You are welcome to explore the other three short sections or the full track,
All of which are available on my accounts page.
Let's begin by turning our focus inward and centering ourselves with our breath.
You will take three slow breaths,
Inhaling for a count of four,
Holding for four,
And exhaling for six.
As you breathe in,
You will draw in energy and your intentions for the day.
As you breathe out,
Release anything you no longer need.
Allow your eyes to gently close now,
Feeling them grow heavy as you relax.
Take a deep breath in,
Drawing in vitality.
Exhale letting go of what doesn't serve you.
Next breath,
Breathe in abundance,
Feeling gratitude.
And exhale,
Releasing anything blocking that abundance.
Finally,
Inhale optimism and compassion,
Feeling warmth surround you.
And exhale,
Letting go of anything that doesn't align with that positivity.
Now that we've activated the parasympathetic nervous system,
Let's deepen the relaxation.
Imagine floating in a warm,
Soothing hot spring,
The water cradling your body.
Feel the warmth start at the top of your head,
Melting away tension in your scalp,
Forehead,
Eyes,
And jaw.
It flows down your neck and shoulders,
Releasing tightness and making you feel light.
The warmth spreads to your arms,
Chest,
And abdomen,
Soothing your muscles as your breathing slows.
It wraps around your back,
Hips,
And legs,
Down to your feet,
Releasing any remaining tension.
Your entire body is now completely relaxed,
Floating effortlessly in the tranquil water,
Feeling peaceful,
Calm,
And deeply at ease.
Visualize this peaceful state for a moment more,
Releasing your whole body,
Relaxing every muscle.
Sink even deeper into relaxation,
Feeling your body and mind completely at ease.
You are calm,
Resilient,
And optimistic.
Any triggers today will remind you of this peaceful state and carry you with vitality,
Joy,
And compassion throughout the day.
As you continue to float,
You notice a set of stairs appearing before you,
Inviting you to move toward them with calm and peace.
As I count down from ten,
You will descend,
Becoming twice as relaxed with each step.
Ten.
Nine.
Eight.
Deeper and more at ease.
Seven.
Six.
Five.
Calm washes over you.
Four.
Three.
Two.
Tranquility deepens.
One.
Fully relaxed,
Peaceful,
And serene.
You have gone deeper into relaxation than ever before,
And you will carry this deep sense of peace with you throughout our session.
Any sounds or thoughts you experience will only contribute to deepening your state of relaxation.
Each time you hear my voice,
It will guide you further into a sense of calm and ease,
Helping you to sink even deeper into this peaceful state.
Now,
Let's envision how our day will unfold in three different ways.
You will picture yourself moving through your day with confidence and positivity,
Embracing both planned activities and unexpected events.
As you visualize and gauge all five of your senses,
Imagine the sights,
Sounds,
Smells,
Tastes,
And tactile sensations of each moment.
Truly immerse yourself in these scenarios,
Feeling as if you are right there in the experience.
Allow this vivid imagery to reinforce your sense of capability and abundance,
Preparing you to face the day with resilience and ease.
Begin by visualizing the first half of your day.
Picture yourself starting your morning with a sense of calm and positivity.
Imagine the details of your morning routine.
Feel the texture of your clothing,
Hear the sounds of your environment,
And see the colors around you.
As you move through your morning activities,
Visualize handling each task with grace and efficiency,
Feeling empowered and centered.
Engage all five of your senses,
Taste the flavors of your breakfast,
Feel the warmth of your coffee mug,
And breathe in the freshness of the day.
See yourself navigating through any challenges with ease and confidence,
Maintaining a steady and positive mindset.
Take your time to fully explore this visualization now.
Next,
Shift your focus to the second half of the day.
Visualize the transition from morning to afternoon,
And then into the evening.
Imagine yourself approaching each task and interaction with enthusiasm and resilience.
Picture the details,
How you interact with colleagues or friends,
The sounds and sights of your surroundings,
And the sensations of your environment.
Feel yourself responding to unexpected events with calm and adaptability,
Using your strengths and abundance to handle each situation effectively.
Allow yourself to experience the fulfillment and satisfaction of a productive and positive day.
Engaging all your senses to make the visualization as vivid as possible.
Take your time to fully explore this visualization now.
Finally,
Turn your attention to who you want your future self to be.
Envision the person you aspire to become.
Incorporating the vitality and abundance you have affirmed.
Picture yourself in various scenarios that represent your goals and aspirations,
How you handle challenges,
Interact with others,
And achieve your dreams.
Imagine the feelings,
Sensations,
And experiences associated with this future version of yourself.
See yourself living with confidence,
Joy,
And fulfillment.
And notice the qualities and attributes that define your future self.
Allow this version to inspire and motivate you,
Reinforcing your commitment to growth and personal development.
Take your time to fully explore this visualization now.
Let this exercise strengthen your sense of empowerment and guide you through your day and your journey towards becoming your ideal future self.
Anytime you wish to return to the positivity and empowerment of this session,
Simply clasp your hands together.
Each time you do,
You will reconnect with the essence of who you are and all that you are capable of achieving.
You will remember your strengths and align yourself with your best self,
Effortlessly letting go of anything that does not resonate with your true purpose.
Clasp your hands together now,
And as you do,
Feel the connection to the positivity and strength of this session.
As you gently pull your hands apart,
With your eyes still closed,
Begin to bring your awareness back to the present moment.
Start by moving your fingers and toes.
Then gradually stretch and flex your limbs to awaken your body.
Feel the energy returning to you,
Revitalizing you,
And refreshing you.
Each time that you use this method for easy relaxation,
You relax more easily,
More quickly,
And more deeply.
Relaxation is a skill that you are easily developing.
Now,
Visualize the stairs once more.
Imagine yourself standing at the bottom,
Ready to ascend to your beautiful day ahead.
Begin to walk up each step slowly and deliberately.
Let's take the first step.
1.
Recall the sense of deep relaxation and calm you felt during the session.
2.
Remember the loving-kindness you practiced toward yourself and others.
3.

You reconnect with this positivity.
10.
As you reach the top,
Feeling fully awakened,
Energized,
Healthy,
And ready to embrace your day,
Let these elements integrate into your consciousness,
Preparing you to move through your day with renewed vigor and purpose.
And remember,
You are resilient,
Capable,
Calm,
And optimistic.
Any event today that might typically trigger you will instead serve as a gentle reminder of the peaceful state you're in right now.
You'll carry with you a sense of vitality,
Joy,
And compassion throughout your day.
The deeper you relax,
The stronger this connection becomes,
Allowing you to effortlessly maintain this serene mindset.
So open your eyes,
Smile,
And conquer your day.
You've got this.
