If you want to connect inwardly,
The sitting down and meditating is just not going to work for you right now.
I invite you to do this practice with me.
We'll pair breath awareness and freestyle dance to tune into the aliveness that is our breath.
Let's start.
So go ahead and stand in a comfortable position.
And start to notice any sensations.
Start to notice your breath.
How are you breathing in this moment?
No need to change anything,
Just noticing your breath.
And as you notice your breath start to move with me.
Starting with your shoulders,
Go ahead and roll your shoulders out.
Letting your breath be the rhythm.
As you roll your shoulders out.
See if it feels good to sway from one side to the other.
Allowing your weight to shift.
Left to right.
Breathing into your arms,
Into your fingertips.
Let your arms join in to this movement.
And breathe.
Join me in a little bounce.
Warming up.
Bow.
Breathing with your movement,
Letting your balance sway from one side to the other.
You Engage your spine.
Opening on the exhale.
I'm expanding,
I'm inhale.
Contracting on the exhale.
Allow your movement to be birthed from your breath.
Beginning your movement with an inhale.
Allowing the exhale to complete it.
Now rather than simply noticing your breath.
Imagine you are your breath.
Sensing into your breath from the inside.
Every inhale gently awakens you.
Every exhale,
Soften.
Whatever no longer needs to be held.
Allow yourself to become movement,
Become breath.
Be the movement of your breath.
What would it be like to let your inhale and exhale guide your movement?
What would it be like?
To trust.
Your body's knowing.
Your timing.
Green.
Moving,
Being your breath.
From the inside.
Imagine the movement.
In every corner and space of your body.
Slowly allow your movement to become smaller as we bring this practice to a close.
Return to standing still.
Now see what your breath is like now.
Notice the space around you.
Notice your feet on the floor.
And feel your breath.
Thank your body.
You Thank yourself.
Thank you.
